apparently the data indicates that the real neurodivergent move is to shower while sitting down

Fake news apparently (others have had higher) but man's still pretty darn smart.

Abdul El-Sayed has the highest h-index of anyone who has ever been elected to office in the US government.

Not gerrymandering; boundarysmithing 😁

Lab tests (and all necessary activities part of medical diagnosis and treatment) must remain and be restored to being publicly funded. The health of Canadians isn't a liability, it's both the ethical thing for a government and our neighbours to support, and an investment in our present and future.

"when a patient paid privately for health and wellness services... the province covered the cost of tests like blood work or urinalysis. Wright said it was costing Alberta Precision Laboratories about $12 million per year." And they want to expand private health care... www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

This is the feel today.

Motion to replace the term "gerrymandering" with "boundarysmithing".

🐧🫸😈🤘

This is gerrymandering. Classic gerrymandering.

Oh hey Alberta's latest (and highly controversial) electoral boundary report is out: www.assembly.ab.ca/docs/default... And it's got a bunch of "hybrid" ridings that blend urban and rural areas into one. For example, here's the proposed new "Calgary-North West-Bearspaw" riding:

It’s official - the map is out & the fix is in. The committee the UCP struck to redraw our elections boundaries release their report & MAGA-style gerrymandered map A map designed to take away Albertans’ right to choose their government. We can’t let it stand. And we won’t. #abpoli

"Free-use on the Land" is that a thing? ADHD brain coining new porn genres hilariously

And every time one answers "But Why?" with "Think of the Children", they ought be roundhouse slapped, and told "I AM, children become ADULTS you ninny, and your job is to BUILD the world they grow up INTO to not be a shitfest of failed governance now DO YOUR JOB and build the damn NATION".

as i was walking around the neighborhood today, i saw what i later learned to be a child dressed as a crayon. before this was explained to me i believed that i was being menaced by a large walking crayon. i burst into tears. i was terrified. this holiday is needlessly cruel and should be outlawed

And worse yet

Parents, make sure you're careful this Halloween! Inside this chocolate bar someone had hidden a 1533 seal from the Franciscan Friars of Aylesbury depicting St Francis preaching to the birds.

*taps the sign*

If AI solves maths problems but humans don't understand how the problem was solved -- has it really been solved? If only software can 'understand,' then...what?

Mark my words, somebody in the UCP caucus is going to demand to know why Elections Alberta isn't asking Claude to do the work.

The full letter released by the NDP...

Online news outlets with fixed subscription prices, hear me out: Introduce a sliding scale. Getting N subscriptions at as low as 1/N the rate of your full price will exceed the losses from those who swear off your site because we can't all subscribe to a billion $100/year services.

This is actually the funniest idea of all time

Fun fact about me: I'm allergic to tigers.

I think about cognitive load and hypervigilance quite a lot having been mostly pretty closeted about my sexuality until I was 30. How much human potential do you imagine is wasted in pretending we do not have the attractions we do, performing traditional masculinity or femininity to go undetected?

RAINBOW MATH DISPLAY

This is a poster for the classroom displaying 'rainbow math' or different ways to make ten by using addition. Children will refer to it when making friendly jumps or as a quick reference to use.

Danielle Smith says that schools like the one in her constituency that flies multiple international flags inside the school will be able to get an exemption. Want to guess what’s not in the new regulations? An exemption process. Or even the word “exemption”.

Hey kids (by proxy since I'm not about minors interacting with me here) and parents too for that matter: I'm certainly not advocating anybody vandalize public property on a daily basis with pride flags and other cool and diverse flags. Not in the slightest.
