As Prime Minister, I’ll make sure the 2015 election will be the last under first-past-the-post system http://t.co/KvaNbizLH5 #upfordebate

An allegory for what's happening with facebook right now:

Imagine you sell paintings. You have a little shop. Business is pretty good. Then, a big mall offers you a space. The mall is shiny and nice and lots of people and other sellers are going. So, you relocate.

[Zach Weinersmith @ZachWeiner]

Wait, wait, wait. Wait. Wait. Wait.

Wait.

FACEBOOK is complaining that an algorithm was changed in a way that cost them revenue?

This should be a national holiday for artists.

NEW: The Ford government is going to fight the premier’s summons in court. The province believes “the summons are inconsistent with the members’ parliamentary privilege.”

In Britain, there’s bother & fuss;

Folks, take note please. It's no time to panic, but it is time to roll up our sleeves and get back to work preventing COVID-19. Transmission risk in the @Ptbohealth region is VERY HIGH. It's not what any of us want, but we've had nearly 3 years of experience so we know what to do

[Cory Doctorow NO LONGER ON TWIT TER @doctorow]

Sometimes it's hard to know why prices are going up. Between the oil shock, a tight employment market and the climate polycrisis, is it even possible to tell if companies are using the widespread *belief* in inflation to hike prices? Uh, yeah, we *absolutely* can. 1/

🍓 Radiation destroys disease-carrying bacteria & reduces the chances of food-borne illnesses, all while keeping the same taste, texture, and look. It also doesn’t leave any sort of #radiation residues. https://t.co/BZici0Q26Y #WorldFoodDay

In #toRE and #VanRE a 25-29 yo with a university degree and avg paycheque would be in the red every month just covering rent for a one-bedroom food, utilities and transport costs. In #Halifax they’d be lucky breaking even. (Keep in mind 1-bdrm much more common than studio apt)

Nature can teach us a lot about navigating the workplace.

Reject new projects like a deciduous tree: “Conditions are unfavorable for me to accommodate additional photosynthesis, so I will be dormant for the winter.”

NEW: Hundreds of thousands of COVID-19 antivirals are sitting on shelves across Canada, @CBCNews has learned.
The feds have sent out enough Paxlovid to treat 730,000 people, but the provinces have dispensed only a fraction of it. https://t.co/5ocr1ujVHx
