Die Mad 🇨🇦

It is Saturday in Australia so here is a pic of an Australian cat, visiting from Down Under, after being teleported to the northern hemisphere. #caturday #australia

TIL that humans shared a common ancestor with yeast 1.5 billion years ago. I think Creationists would have benefitted by evolving since then, like the rest of us.

@Virginicus@universeodon.com @n_dimension@infosec.exchange @futurebird@sauropods.win It is also the first time the tech Lords have put any of their assets where a troubled, insane, meth-head, or maybe just somebody who is pissed off, could do some real damage. On an unrelated note, I think I read somewhere that anybody with cash can buy an RPG of the explosive type right in the gun store. I have no idea what they could do with that.

@luckytran@mastodon.social Correct sentiment, wrong target. Corporations are legal fictions. They have no brains, blood or bones. However the men, and it was almost exclusively men, who provided the brains have known since the mid-1980s that fossil fuels would result in exactly what we are facing now. Those fuckers need to be hunted down and imprisoned. Before they are trotted off to some hell on earth, they must be stripped of every dollar they have and that money should be allocated to disaster recovery in those, oh so many parts of the world that are suffering from climate crisis. Their greedy and irresponsible behaviour deserves the severest punishments we can find for them.

@VeroniqueB99@mastodon.social I am an unpolite Canadian. It is frustrating when nice people politely insert an "out" in their statement, such as "You any disagree, but…". One would have to have a brain smaller than an ant's arsehole to disagree with the statement that follows those words. Those 4 words give a diminutively-brained idiot an out "ya, that is just your opinion, eh".

@robtherunt@cupoftea.social There is a municipality in the province of Quebec that increases your taxes if you don’t plant a tree in your front yard. Those are much better than trees on Civic Boulevards where they are affected by the salt and grit applied to the streets during the winter.

@ai6yr@m.ai6yr.org Guardian: “going to a erode trust…”. How fucking stupid would it be to STILL, as in RFN, before the website changes, trust the White House? There cannot be anything to erode unless your brain case is empty except for enough neurones to keep you breathing (through your mouth) and walk on your hind legs.

@ApaulD@aus.social Many people, especially Americans, just look to punishing a corporation when it acts illegally. Corporations have the right to sue, be sued, and transact business. However, it is a basic concept of corporate law there will be a “guiding mind”. That “mind” is the CEOs and board of directors. If a corporation violates any law, the penalties must be inflicted on the guiding minds. If the authorities try to punish the corporation with monetary penalties, there is no impact unless it is large enough to financially damage the corporation. In that case the investors, the shareholders, suffer and the they did not decide to act in violation of the law. So, please, apply the penalties to the guiding minds, either financially or even by incarceration. Safe bet that the corporations will quickly become good law-abiding citizens.

@lxskllr@mastodon.world Ya, got a closet full of that T-shirt

This is for an old friend who has been estranged from his daughters Heidi and Hannelore for more than 40 years. They will be in there 50's and 60's now. The estrangement was his fault. Their mother was Heather. Heidi may have encountered him in Winnipeg about 2 years ago. He didn't know what to do when he saw her so he drove away. Please boost this and if by a miracle it reaches one of them, I hope they will DM me. Thanks.

@kevinrns@mstdn.social Why Vancouver when you have choices like Buffalo Jump, Moose Jaw, Portage la Prairie, and Wawa? Or go east to Dildo, Newfoundland?

@Natasha_Jay@tech.lgbt It looks like a summary of some job applications I have seen. “I can fish and microwave soup. I would be a great addition to you firm.”
