A walk down memory lane

I guess “99% certain” just doesn’t mean what it used to.

“I have all the confidence in the world that we’re going to go back to where we were before the pandemic,” he said. “The economy will be absolutely booming as sure as I’m standing here.”

Despite comments made by Toronto Mayor John Tory earlier this week about the province needing vaccine passports moving forward, Ford said, “we aren’t doing it; simple as that,” and added that he doesn’t want to create “a split society.”

Tech Haz The Sadz

I work in Big Tech. A name you would know and have probably used before. Wanted to give a rundown of what it’s like from the inside right now.

Obviously insanely radically leftwing. BLM/LGBTQ. Trans flags hanging in office. Pronouns stated before meetings. Special affiliation groups for everyone but white men. All what you’d expect.

But COVID/WFH has totally broken people. They are fundamentally weak, often with no social support outside of work. They’re the people with no children, no spouse. Only a dog or cat for emotional support.

There’s constant talk, even now, about how hard things are for everyone. Often meetings start with going around the room to ask “How is everyone feeling?” Literally everyone else went on sad rants about their lives. “I’m so MAD a white supremacist shot 3 black men in Kenosha!”

It’s toxic. When it got to me, I said “Good.” and then a (((lady engineer))) literally proposed that we should not be allowed to answer the question positively. I shit you not. I think it hurt her that I wasn’t as miserable as her.

“Good.”

Do read on. There’s a big red warning siren for tech investors in there.

Transgenderism Is A Stalking Horse For The Normalization Of Pedophilia

Change my mind.

One of the nation’s most widely circulated newspapers ran an article on Monday that presented pedophilia as “among the most misunderstood” conditions in American society, diminishing pedophilia as “inappropriate,” while it promoted “destigmatizing the attraction.”

“Pedophilia is viewed as among the most horrifying social ills. But scientists who study the sexual disorder say it is also among the most misunderstood,” opens the article, by Alia E. Dastagir. “Researchers who study pedophilia say the term describes an attraction, not an action, and using it interchangeably with ‘abuse’ fuels misperceptions” about pedophiles.

University of Saskatchewan: Some Identities Are More Equal Than Others

Your weekly reminder that Bruce Jenner is a woman,

“Trans health is a clinical interest of mine,” said Clark, who is a family doctor based in Regina and a faculty member in USask’s Department of Academic Family Medicine.

When she was training as a resident, Clark was working with a trans and gender diverse patient to prescribe them hormone therapy.

And Carrie Bourassa is not an Indian.

Carrie Bourassa – a scientific director of the Canadian Institutes of Health Research’s Institute of Indigenous Peoples’ Health and a professor at the University of Saskatchewan – is being investigated after her claims to an indigenous ancestry proved false.

The university hired Jean Teillet, a Métis lawyer, to probe Bourassa’s indigenous claims and will mainly focus on whether or not she misrepresents herself, according to CBC. Bourassa was put on leave earlier this month.

That is all.
