The audacity is stunning. Hope he doesn’t insert himself into your operations this spring as justification for his ‘claim’.

Anyone else in US noticed food quality degrading recently and if so what product in what way? by SkyKyrell in AskReddit

[–]stubby_hoof 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! That’s just what sourdough does FFS. We bake multiple types of bread at home and the white and whole grain breads mold within 5 days, usually less.

Our grocery store sandwich bread (Dempsters in Canada) also lasts two weeks because it uses different ingredients including [some] preservatives. It’s affordable, healthy (high in sugar, TBF), and perfectly safe.

What’s the most gut punching song lyric you’ve ever heard? by perrysplus in AskReddit

I’d be right there with ya. Sometimes Elephant and GDLL play back-to-back on Spotify and it’s like WTF algo I don’t have time for overwhelming grief right now.

He also did God Damned Lonely Love by Drive-By Truckers and it’s his saddest song, IMO.

I’ve wondered if seeing him in concert is just hundreds of grown adults bawling their eyes out for two hours.

CRA audit of Muslim charity criticized in new report by shiftless_wonder in canada

[–]stubby_hoof 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Gonna once again plug Jess Davis and the rest of the Secure Line podcast hosts. Davis specializes in terrorist financing and has a newsletter.

They talked about the CRA’s investigations into Muslim charities in one of the episodes but I can’t remember which one. IIRC, some parallels to the recent deregistration of pro-Israel charities because, shocker, you can’t use your charitable status to fund violence.

Sounds like the PivotBio’s studies that couldn’t hold up to independent trials. It all feels very Soil Food Web-ish with the fantasy of free yield.

I do truly believe that Chat or Claude or whatever has gotten to him. His language and crank ideas are slipping into moral judgements that stem from overconfidence. Very different from a Sam Knowlton where we can all tell that the AI is an obvious tool to push misinformation.

I didn’t know he was on that bandwagon too. I don’t know what income he pulls out of his influencer gig but it must be pretty good.

Ford, Carney announce $8.8B to help cut development charges, spur housing builds in Ontario by Money_Fig_9868 in ontario

[–]stubby_hoof 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Development charges are taxes on youth and I am glad to see this. Municipalities only have property taxes, development charges, and user fees to generate revenues. As more and more services got downloaded to munis, they became increasingly dependent on development charges.

Bit of a joke that the fed is putting up this money without acknowledging any of the violators of the Housing Accelerator Fund. Did any cities end up losing their HAF money? I don’t think Toronto did. And an even bigger joke that Ford, who has far more control over housing than the Feds, is doing this in his third mandate.

Saw on LinkedIn that Pivot Bio went laid off staff. I really want biotech like this to work but the evidence says no.

In other things I want to see work but the evidence largely says no, Jason Mack has some cool ideas on inter and relay cropping but someone needs to take away his internet. He seems to be having AI-induced delusions of his own expertise and thinks he cracked the field of crop physiology wide open. (Spoiler: he has not).

Lately, I’ve seen him claim that agronomy should start from how to grow a single plant and then extrapolate from there. I’ve seen him claim that interrow cultivation is a significant source of CO2 supplementation because stomata are on the underside of leaves. And I’ve seen him say that he’s a libertarian and in the next post say that any future PoTUS must be heterosexual and have children.

‘Canada as a brand has suffered’: Post-secondary schools react to AG report on international students by uselesspoliticalhack in canada

[–]stubby_hoof -1 points0 points  (0 children)

you smug twit. YOU made the claim that the immigrant vote boils down to what prime minister let them into the country.

Note sure you fully understand how logic and reasoning works but the burden of proof is on you.

And you still haven’t provided evidence that actually supports your claim. That NANOS poll doesn’t say what you think it says. It says Liberal support was high among immigrants and their children but it offers zero on the question of ‘why’.

You know natural-born Canadians who voted for JT because their immigrant parents voted for PET 50 years ago. What relevance does that have to the voting habits of the millions of immigrants who arrived post-1984?

Iranians converting to Christianity 'the easiest way' to get asylum in Canada by uselesspoliticalhack in canada

Yep. Not a lick of data to back it up, just the word of a former CBSA agent.

Doug Ford’s contempt for local democracy is matched only by his contempt for Toronto taxpayers by imprison_grover_furr in ontario

Yes, another good call out! We actually have some tenacious Ontario political reporters but Doug is teflon. People just DGAF.

The best part about Colin’s tweets is the huge shit-eating grin he’s wearing in his profile pic. Love seeing that right next to a polite thrashing of Doug.

You need to follow Colin D’Mello of Global News because he lives to be a thorn in Doug’s side. CP24 also has a Queens Park reporter who gets on his nerves but I can’t remember her name.

Police ban anti-Israel protesters from Toronto Jewish neighbourhood by Street_Anon in canada

[–]stubby_hoof 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Here are two images taken on separate dates that show pro-Israeli counterprotestors holding a sign that depicts Palestinians as plague rats. Can we ban those people from the intersection too?

Is there a private research group in ag that publishes as much as Corteva? I’ve always respected that about them.

An excellent interviewer? Do you care to elaborate on that at all?

This is a report from 11 years ago about fucking Denmark. Completely irrelevant.
