“And when you pray, you shall not be like the hypocrites. For they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the corners of the streets, that they may be seen by men. Assuredly, I say to you, they have their reward." (Matthew 6:5)

Leavitt begins the press briefing: "Could you hear our 'amen' in there? We just had a little loud prayer as a team. In this holy week, President Trump and the First Lady are joining in prayer with Christians celebrating the resurrection of our lord and savior, Jesus Christ."

Fuck Trump. HAVANA, ​March 16 (Reuters) - Cuba`s ‌national ​electric grid collapsed on ​Monday, the ​country's ⁠grid ⁠operator ‌said, leaving around 10 ⁠million people ‌without power amid ​a U.S.-imposed ⁠oil ⁠blockade ⁠that ⁠has crippled ​the ​island's ⁠already ailing generation system.

fuck this so much we are so not prepared for the mountain of dogshit “scholarship” about to flood journals everywhere

A beer was thrown at President Trump during a press conference this afternoon in Washington. Trump was unharmed. Since the beer was a draft,... he was able to dodge it.

Academia in the West is a racist institution that seeks to protect colonialism via oppression.

A trillion scams sit in billions of inboxes. Refusing to engage with it won’t stop it. It just leaves others unknowing. Demand scam ownership! Stand against scam abstinence!

AI sits in billions of phones. Refusing to engage won't stop it, just leaves vulnerable people without knowledge. Demand ownership and control, not abstinence.

Élie Cantin-Nantel is so sick of "experts"

Of the 2500 or so Palestinian people Israel released, they determined that 150 were so dangerous they would only be released in another country. Which means that the other 2300 or so weren't actually dangerous, and were in fact hostages that were traded for IDF pows. The news should reflect that.

No sorry, as much as poilievre is an absolute non-starter, Carney still fucking sucks.

It is possible to disagree with the handling of the Air Canada strike and also believe that Carney and the Liberals are still 1000x better than the Poilievre alternative. #cdnpoli

The ruling class systematically dismantles all worker’s unions, except of course police unions, those are allowed to exist, bc cops are class traitors and the loyal servants of the rich and powerful

This asshole couldn't be more wrong if he was RFK Jr. Stating facts is not wrong, misinterpreting t hem for political gain is. Cooper and RFK Jr are pretty similar people.

Hey congrats to everyone who took the soft anti-vaccine stance of “mRNA vaccines aren’t 100% effective and aren’t useful against future variants so the mRNA vaccines aren’t good, we need to mask forever”, your stance has been noted by RFK Jr. to kill mRNA technology in America.

Conservatives are most shifty group on the planet.

Both the Star and CP just wrote up Ford's comments, and left out the fact that he obviously didn't read the ruling and just decided to petulantly lie about it. Neither story pointed out the judge said that Ford's government didn't try to make their case, and blatantly lied in what they did say.

Tombe might as well just move into an office with Tom Flannagan. He cannot undo what he has done by joining this cabal of people who hate Canada.

I don't mean this to minimize in anyway the threats that elected officials receive. But I cannot tell you how many death rates I personally have received where police shrug and say "IP says they're not in Canada, so our hands are tied." Women are told this every day by law enforcement.

In this post I compiled a literature review of research about such gendered service disparities. These dynamics contributed to my resignation from a tenured full professorship last week.

In a study of professors, women got 378 new work requests over 4 weeks vs 118 for men. Women spent more time on service, advising & teaching; men on research. Orgs should track who is taking extra duties & ensure they are rewarded and distributed fairly. www.forbes.com/sites/kimels...

The Zionist who threw the Iranian child on the floor 👉 HE DID THE THING!! He did ultra-violence to a toddler in day light in front of everyone and then PLAYED THE VICTIM! This shit HAS TO end. Zionists are not victims, they’re the victimizers. And all their politicians are victimizers too.

The pedagogical questions around whether and how to use any genAI tools in our teaching are not actually new. Despite what some of the discourse is trying to make you believe. That's my argument.
