Hmm. I care about precisely 5 of these shows. Maybe it's time I take "TV connoisseur" off my bio.

Bobby Kogan@bbkogan.bsky.social · 4d agoOf course it is. We need to stop pretending that bombs and tanks can only happen in the "Old World." Trump talks about Canada the way Hitler talked about Poland and Putin talked about Ukraine. Too many people are laughing that off. I don't, and I'm glad Carney isn't.
Mike Walker@newnarrative.bsky.social · 5d agoCarney prepared for risk that Trump might order U.S. to invade Canada. Expert says it’s a valid concern nationalpost.com/news/carney-...
Downloaded a 3-page document from OSAP and was told to fill out and submit "all 4 pages." Got me channeling Jean-Luc Picard: "THERE! ARE! THREE! PAGES!" ::tearing-out-hair emoji::

5 stars to The Infinite Sadness of Small Appliances by Glenn Dixon It's heartwarming, it's timely, it's an urgent warning against AI, but most importantly, it's The Brave Little Toaster for grownups. GR review: www.goodreads.com/review/show/... #booksky
I wish they'd done this from the start. Let him rant into the void.

It's gonna be near impossible to undo all the damage he's causing after he's gone. 😩
Earthjustice@earthjustice.org · 2w agoAnother disturbing development in the Trump administration’s attacks on the Endangered Species Act. This report from the New York Times reveals that an internal memo subverts the law by making it OK to kill endangered species – as long as it wasn't intentional. We'll see them in court.
It's okay, we think you're laughable, too. You can't stop trading with EVERYbody. 🤣

Clearly they asked AI to pick the song that best expresses its impact on humanity.
Amanda Bryana@amandabryana.bsky.social · 2w agoSaw that Meta AI have used a Bowie song and got really angry. Then I saw which one they're using and I can't stop laughing. Does no one listen to lyrics or was "we're going to cause human extinction through the imminent death of the planet" really the vibe they were going for?
3 stars to A New Kind of Clean by Iain Reid and Ellie Foumbi Loved the metaphor, wasn't crazy about the execution. Well worth reading for fans of Iain Reid. www.goodreads.com/book/show/25... Many thanks to NetGalley and Simon & Schuster for the eARC. Release date is January 5. #booksky

Welp. I can't load NetGalley ARCs onto my Kindle app for PC anymore. End of an era. Amazon sucks.
It's been 30 years since I last set foot in a school building, but I still crave setting up a backpack with brand new school supplies every Labour Day. It's weird, I HATED going to school, but I LOVED prepping for the first day. Anyway, have a great school year, kids! Learn cool things!
