       The amount of disinformation, deep fakes, and other misdirection I hear about from friends and relatives that they get from traditional social media is insane. They have to tell me about it because I am almost always completely unaware, even though I am “on the Internet” just as much if not more than them.This is a deep advantage of using Mastodon/the Fediverse right now.  And it is not because fake stuff doesn’t exist here. It is just not automatically sent to me by every owner, bot, and user. And if it is, it is generally swatted down hard.#fediverse #mastodon #realInformation

       Went shopping.One pack of lean ground beef (that used to serve four, now 2.5) went from $9 last week to $9.50 today. (Save-On Foods - Jimmy Pattinson Group)That “pact” the grocery billionaires signed is working great.I am sure Carney is seized with affordability for Canadians while he flies around the world promising secure oil for Europe.Anyway, more cowbell.#cdnpoli #canpoli #food #shopping

       @Ratoncita The 🍊 🤡 did not:1) make a useless grocery pact2) promise to make life more affordable for CanadiansThe war did not raise the price of beef by 5% in a week, don’t believe it as it is absolute nonsense. This is simple price gouging, and our Prime Minister is globe trotting instead of putting in measures that might limit the pain of Canadians.Shirking responsibility for the things you *can* control is not a good look.

       "Trump Destroyed the EV Industry, Just When We Need it Most”And Mark Carney and Doug Ford just went along for the ride.I “filled" my EV yesterday (200km) for $8.This is the same price as it would have been a month ago.This is not a brag.  This is a statement of fact and a call to action.https://www.thebulwark.com/p/trump-electric-vehicle-ev-industry-chevy-bolt-gas-prices#EV #EndFossilFuels #EndFossilWars #ClimateAction #IranUSIsraelWar

       If any positive comes out of the Air Canada crash in New York, it would be that the CEO gets booted out for being a disrespectful, dishonest, jerk.He said 4 years ago: ""I admit that I made a mistake by not learning to speak French when I joined Air Canada and I am correcting that mistake at this point," he told the parliamentary standing committee on official languages in March 2022.”https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/air-canada-ceo-michael-rousseau-laguardia-crash-condolences-english-ottawa-9.7140823#LaGuardia #AirCanada #CanPoli #CdnPoli

       “Wang Chuanfu, BYD’s CEO, barely slept for weeks. Three passengers, all in their twenties. His chemistry. His cell. His company’s name on the casing. He had not built it to kill anyone, but it had. He pulled his engineers together with one question: What is the mechanism by which this cell fails, and how do we make that physically impossible”Someone needs to get this article in front of Mark Carney and Doug Ford and then the stupid limits on Chinese cars need to be eliminated so Canada can start building these things immediately. This is the future. China is leading that future and we need to come to terms with it and use our influence to make it, and them, better.https://www.fastcompany.com/91519302/byd-nail-test-why-this-54-billion-innovation-is-terrifying-western-auto-executives?utm_source=flipboard&utm_medium=activitypub#climateEmergency #climatechange #byd #china #canada #canpoli
