Title page of Oxfam Canada’s latest report, Rising Up Against Wealth Inequality in Canada

While things are getting harder for many of us, with the rising cost of groceries, housing, and other essentials - that's not the case for everyone.

The richest 40 billionaires in Canada? Their wealth grew by a whopping 20% between 2024 and 2025. An additional $95 billion! 1/3

Please tag me if you see any anime that appears to plainly be using AI transcriptions for closed captions. That's CLOSED CAPTIONS (SDH) for ENGLISH DUBS, not subtitles for Japanese audio. I wanna publicly keep track of some of these and start holding platforms accountable.

The real question is not "Why is Bluesky so left-coded," the real question is "Why can't the right exist in a social media environment without algorithmic assistance, where people can ignore them"

The 2025 Federal Budget falls short of the action Canadians deserve. @elizabethemay.bsky.social, Leader of the Green Party of Canada, and @morricemike.bsky.social, former Green MP for Kitchener Centre, explain why Greens can’t support a budget that doesn’t measure up.

We now know who the PM expects to make the sacrifices he spoke of: everyday folks in communities like ours.

Instead of a tax increase on the ultra-wealthy or scaling back some of the billions in subsidies to foreign big oil companies, this government plans to cut $56 billion in services we rely on.

Search LibGen, the Pirated-Books Database That Meta Used to Train AI Millions of books and scientific papers are captured in the collection’s current iteration.

Just a reminder to check for your name in this list of books that OpenAI trained from. If your name is there, they probably owe you several thousand dollars.

OpenAI cried that if everyone eligible author files, the company will go bankrupt, so I'm alerting every author I have ever spoken to.

Air Canada strike:

“We’re going to stay committed to making sure that those workers can do the job that they love doing and actually be able to afford a roof over their heads, to afford caring for their families,” CUPE president just said.

“If it means folks like me going to jail, then so be it.”

A friend of mine often says “Everyone becomes disabled at some point in their life, it’s just when it happens varies.” Take some time this month to learn about disabled rights and accessibility!

To my fellow disabled friends, be PROUD of yourself and your accomplishments! 🩷
