Whether it's Twitter or Threads or whatever else, the Vast Machine is now the Ghost in Your Head. "What you think, what you feel—it’s all just data

I’m sure there was a moment in your life when you realized that you didn’t believe what the adults were saying. Perhaps they were big and you were small, but suddenly you knew that they were wrong and you were right.

There’s nothing unusual in this moment when we step back and separate our own wishes from those in control. To create our authentic self, each child has to make decisions about accepting—or rejecting—the right of others to control our lives. It is through these small acts of rebellion that we gradually become adults. ~Jonahan Twelve Hawks, Against Authority

Poilievre Facing 58 Opponents So Far in Alberta Byelection Targeted by Long Ballot Protest

I am watching and listening to the Town Hall in Red Deer on X and covering a lot of good questions and panelists. Over 10,000 watching.
I wish the media would honestly cover it but it will be slammed on talk shows and newspapers.

Anyone can post here

I noticed that our membership is growing so people must be mentioning this group around. Welcome.

We have a few regular posters, but anyone can post, so if you come across something especially worth passing on, please do.

For those who may be new or who have been here for a while and never posted our group enjoys articles and other posts that provide a unique perspective and challenge the common narratives, fill in blanks, or simply entertain.

Readers 'like' some articles more than others, but 'liking' to me is more a sign that we found the article useful than that we agree with it. I often 'like' articles that i thought to be are quirky, off-base, or just plain wrong, but worth reading.
