My airing of my grievances: A Festivus thread (feel free to add yours below)

1. The blinding LED headlights are top of the list again this year. I’m ready to run for Prime Minister just to outlaw them 2. People who say “I don’t mean to interrupt…” and then proceed to continue interrupting

Just a reminder that online disinformation is intentional, and it’s rampant on Twitter

It’s used to spread lies & propaganda, cast doubt, to create divide, and elevate certain opinions/beliefs to make them seem more prevalent

But what can we do? Here are a few ideas:

(thread) 1. Refrain from tweeting or retweeting information that is unconfirmed, or hasn’t been verified

2. Ask for the source of the information. Remember, a screenshot isn’t the same as a link to a reputable website/article. Ask for the verifiable source of the screenshot

Things we have learned this week (a thread):

1. Doug Ford is clearly running for Premier in the June election. It’s still unclear whether or not he knows that he is the current one

2. Old, racist white people really don’t like 90s hip hop 3. Prince was the second best halftime show ever

4. Gay cowboys and the #RamRanchResistance were the heroes we didn’t know we needed

5. People still freely protesting for freedom still don’t understand irony

Pat King is live now as he flees Ottawa
His base is asking what to do if/when police move in. Notice that he does NOT reiterate that they should stay peaceful
When asked what the plan is, he talks about himself and provides no direction to those he has left behind They are making note of a large amount of police presence which suggests this isn’t typical

Side not: judging by his breathing, if they want to take him down, doing it after a 20meter foot chase is likely
