I just had the weirdest scam call pretending to be Rogers Communications (@Rogers). After he identified himself, I said:

This is the third time this week I've gotten a call from you guys, can you put me on a list of do not call as I do not want these phone calls anymore...

[Carrie Cutforth @Bitcherific]

ANYHOO I'm now registered on the National Do Not Call List. It took less than 30 seconds, and according to Rogers Communications, once your name is on that list (it takes 30 days to update), they will never call you so you know automatically anyone calling you is a spoof call

One case involves a man who had MAiD suggested to him by a psychiatrist during a mental health assessment and then was later picked and driven to his MAiD appointment by the MAiD provider who euthanized him.

Remember these are the ones we know about.

What’s hilarious about this is when standing desks were first sold as a thing for office workers for health, cashiers everywhere were like lol whut

[Lev Parikian @LevParikian]

Sitting and standing all day are both bad, which leaves lying down as the best option, which is what I’ve been saying for years.

Did I ever dress outrageously or unusual?

And I was like: NO, I DRESS FABULOUSLY!!!

This question came right before did I ever have a sense of grandeur and I was like: but I AM awesome, see previous answers, bitch!

When I was being assessed for bipolar disorder in the aughts, one of the questions was: did I ever engage in risky sexual behaviour?

And I was like you mean riding a rando cock while juggling chainsaws? Um noo!!!

Another was:

I'm talking at a conference later this year (on UX+AI).

I just saw an ad for the conference with my photo and was like, wait, that doesn't look right.

Is my bra showing in my profile pic and I've never noticed...? That's weird.

I open my original photo.
No bra showing.

I put the two photos side by side and I'm like WTF...

Someone edited my photo to unbutton my blouse and reveal a made-up hint of a bra or something else underneath. 🤨

Immediately, I email the conference host.
(FYI he is a great, respectable guy with 5 kids at home.)

He is super apologetic and immediately looks into the issue.

He quickly reports back that the woman running their social media used a cropped square image from their website.

She needed it to be more vertical, so she used an AI expand image tool to make the photo taller.

AI invented the bottom part of the image (in which it believed that women's shirts should be unbuttoned further, with some tension around the buttons, and revealing a little hint of something underneath). 🤯

FYI the conference organizers were super apologetic and took down all of the content with that photo.

🧵 I'm in Ricochet this week highlighting students across Ontario universities who are begging for masks to return to the classroom. Why are our leaders letting a virus *that harms our ability to think* to run rampant on our campuses?

This morning I joined the Trojan Horse tour @OntarioHealthC and @CUPEOntario at ##HamOnt General Hospital to fight back against private healthcare!

The sector isn't addressing surgery backlogs or ending hallway medicine. Receiving healthcare shouldn't cause you to go into debt.

If you are middle-aged and want to improve your poop game, I highly recommend eating kiwi (with the skin) in chia seeds soaked in plain Greek yoghurt:

Tastes awful but the 💩💩💩 afterwards are excellent!
