Can you imagine paying for an ad only to have the site you've paid shaft you via one of their features? What an A+ business model.

I don't know why Lance Armstrong woke up one morning recently and decided that trans athletes and "fairness in sports" should be a topic that needs his public exploration, but I do have thoughts on all this and context for those without it. (thread)

[Mike Drucker @MikeDrucker]

If Lance Armstrong actually believed people are pretending to be trans to cheat at sports, he would have tried it already

[Assigned Media @assignedmedia]

I want to slow this discourse down for a moment and be very clear and deliberate about why Armstromg's history of cheating in cycling is important and relevant here, beyond a cheap gotcha. (thread)

The two missing air crew members from the RCAF CH-147F Chinook that crashed in the Ottawa River on Tuesday June 20, were found last evening. Tragically, neither member survived. The names of the deceased individuals are not being released at the request of their families.

My thoughts are with 450 Sqn and their families today.

Sorry to keep pointing out the obvious, but *this* is gender ideology. This is the state enforcing gender norms - what clothes you wear, what name and pronouns you go by. The fact that the proponents of this policy call themselves "gender critical" is risible

'Gendered oldism', 'youngism', 'middle-ageism'...We found no age was the right age to be a woman leader. There was always an age-based excuse to not take women seriously, to discount their opinions, or to not hire or promote them.' @amydiehl @leannedz

As an institution we've done a heck of a lot wrong on this front. I'm so glad we are working to correct and change and it warms my heart to see this.

[Royal Canadian Air Force @RCAF_ARC]

Celebrating love, diversity and inclusivity! On June 4, RCAF members participated in the Winnipeg Pride Parade. #PrideSeason is a time to reflect on the fact that while progress has been made, 2SLGBTQI+ persons in Canada continue to face discrimination every day.

Indirectly related to the NB pronoun news... But, in my experience, the more you disallow someone from doing or exploring something the more obstinately they're going to do exactly that.

By making it an issue, you're making it an issue.

as we look at the terrifying scenes out of nyc, know that ontario premier doug ford cut 70%—or $142.2 milllion—from the emergency firefighting fund in 2019 even as Indigenous communities, experts, and residents warned of escalating severe weather due to climate change

I’m joining many others with lots of time in the game & not competing in this.
Let people do what they wish, advantaged knowledge or not, and GL to those rushing 100.
I’m gonna watch the cinematics, do the quests and enjoy the lore.
