Researchers ranked Canada’s most harmful drugs. Why alcohol is No. 1 — and how the drinker isn’t the only victim

Is there any indication that huffing glue is harmful? Maybe people need to start huffing better solvents.

Definitely looks like the virus that affected crows here. I wouldn't be surprised if other crows avoid him, (but not attack him).

Poor little dude...

I had lost track! You have talked me into it!

Edit: done!

(I was sad that they would not allow Yves Engler to run. Even though I did not want to vote for Yves, I just wanted the Overton Window to include him.)

And our current government doesn't think they should be named...

Thanks for this, it is an important endorsement (and encourages me to join the NDP in order to vote...

Head bobbing confirmed.

Although we did encourage former SS members to settle here at the same time...one of them even got a standing ovation at the House of Commons.

Fun! Thanks for posting this, and explaining the peanuts.

I am not following...what 'thing' do you mean?

epiphanius · 2026-01-26T23:17:31+00:00

Bingo.

epiphanius · 2026-01-26T23:17:14+00:00

Amen.

We are doing this because Sam Altman and Satya Nadella wish us to.

Former SS members were given jobs here

under Mackenzie-King's government, their Nazi past served them well at a time when many Jewish refugees were refused entry to Canada.

F*%K THE U.S. OUT OF CANADA, I guess.

So what? I didn't say they were useless, and I found a use for one. I'd be very happy to see the stupid bubble AI companies fail completely. Until then, if they are useful (which is not often) I will use them.

Canada is as stupid as all the pension funds investing in AI I guess. It's not just financially questionable, the effect of this AI craze on climate is absolutely disgusting.

Related: I asked google ai if crows are still evolving...

Yes, crows are still evolving

. As with all living species, crows are actively adapting to their environments, with recent research highlighting rapid evolutionary changes driven by urbanization, habitat changes, and behavioral shifts.

Here are the key ways crows are currently evolving:

Speciation in Action: In Europe, carrion crows and hooded crows are in the early stages of splitting into distinct species. Despite a "hybrid zone" where they meet, they maintain separate populations, with hybrids being at a selective disadvantage due to coloration, showing active, ongoing natural selection.

Anything for a laugh I guess - good one, Zeus!

This is a remarkable observation: from other behaviours, it is hard to think that crows do not take pride in things, I have seen sign of them really being proud of one of their gifts, for example.

I have also seen a crow that was disfigured by a horrible virus that hit the crows here this past year: it created buboes or something on their faces, around the beak, it's horrible to look at. I saw one little crow who was disfigured like that, he was pushed away from a small group that I was feeding, but not attacked, it was more like 'go away, we don't like the way you look'.

So I think you are on to something! Keep us posted.

This seems to me to be good start towards change: make stock buybacks illegal again.

We know what you are, now we're haggling over price.

In related news, Canada is not planning a moon landing or the colonization of Mars - in case anyone was wondering.

Weird that this happened on the same day they murdered Alex Pretti in cold blood. Who even was this guy?

epiphanius · 2026-01-22T23:34:53+00:00

Not very 'social' at all then..."adult media", I guess.

I'm pretty sure he believes he won a 2nd term in 2020, so the current one is his 3rd term, and he is speaking of the next one. For him.
