Canada, Europe, Ukraine, and democratic allies grow stronger when they stand together. Trust, solidarity, and cooperation matter more than political ego games and isolationism. The free world survives by supporting each other — not by abandoning allies. #Canada #Europe #Ukraine #Democracy #Allies

Before 2015 I regularly bought 2-3 (often more) music albums - CDs or downloads - per month. Between 2016 and 2025 I paid Spotify a monthly fee instead. It's only in the last year that I've been buying the same amount of music on Bandcamp instead.
I enjoyed finding (lots of) new music through Spotify, and I enjoyed sharing playlists with colleagues and friends. But looking back on my local music collection, there's a big void where the last decade should be - and that doesn't feel good.

Without any investments, spending $1million every single day, 800 billion dollars would last over 2,190 years, supporting dozens of generations of extreme luxury.
Simply allowing people to starve to death when you're in that position should be considered an atrocity.
To use it instead to sue for more money is one of the most repellant things I can think of.

We should listen a lot more to experts, scientists, engineers and teachers instead of politicians

the linux screensaver that shows 3d models of all the different molecules is so good! it's like it sneaks a little bit of learning in there opportunistically.
me: paused the telly for a bit to reply to a message, go to resume playback...
my laptop: while ive got you, here's Buckinsterfullerine aka "bucky ball" which appears to be a compound made entirely of carbon atoms. enjoy!
me: zoned out thinking about an email reply
laptop: hey check out the dna molecule? its pretty sweet!
i think im even starting to remember some of the forms and am starting to have questions id like to have answers to, about how all the little atoms bond and stuff, and like how you can get the atoms to jump into one formation vs another 🤔.
it feels like free learning via osmosis and i like it a lot 😎

Having had a little password difficulty on my wife's tablet this evening... this @tomgauld.bsky.social cartoon came to mind.... sometimes, trying to recall your password under pressure is just counterproductive!
