The divide between Alberta and Ottawa is worsened under first-past-the-post, which leaves hundreds of thousands of Albertan Liberals without a voice. Proportional representation would bring their voices into Parliament, fostering unity and fairness. #cdnpoli #elections2025

A lot of people who say they want "free speech" actually just want to be the one in charge of which speech is free.

After banning @elonjet, which he said he wouldn’t, Musk has now banned @joinmastodon after it tweeted that users could follow the jet-tracking account on their platform.

Mastodon is the most talked-about alternative to Twitter. In comparison, “you don’t feel the same level of hostility there,” an editor at an Irish Web site said, and there’s no “swathe of American bullshit to cut through.” nyer.cm/PvZBp4w

Reminding self to take my own advice I'm @ZachWeinersmith on mastodon. I'll keep my account here. I just don't like how it's rapidly becoming a social network oriented around a single dude pushing conspiracy theories.

Aaron Swartz would have been 36 today. Aaron committed suicide after being sentenced to 35 years in prison by US authorities for transferring and sharing scientific articles from JSTOR.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Swartz was never convicted or sentenced to prison. After declining a plea bargain in which he'd serve six months in jail, he committed suicide before trial. forbes.com/sites/timothyl…

I'm just realizing now that "learning to live with the virus" was code for "people need time to numb themselves to a higher level of suffering and disability and a lower level of caring and compassion."
