In white nationalist circles, 1488 is a signal — 14 for the 14 words, 88 for the eighth letter of the alphabet, H, twice.
That’s for He*l H*tler.
Given Musk has previously shared he has 24.7k subscribers, why does his profile now say 88?
Right next to 144.5?

Algonquin communities consulted over what to rename Ottawa’s Sir John A. Macdonald Parkway have reached a consensus and the new name Kichi Zībī Mīkan will be recommended to the National Capital Commission’s board of directors later this month, according to a letter circulated by one of the Indigenous groups involved.
A little odd given it’s a parkway designed for motor vehicles or did the Algonquin invent cars?

There’s nothing noble about cheating death
In the pristine cylindrical atrium of Altos Labs’s Cambridge Institute of Science, under a skylight resembling a giant cyclopic eye, I ask the obvious question. What does the company actually do? “Cell rejuvenation,” replies the facilities manager. At least, looking back, I’m pretty sure that’s what he says. At the time, I hear something slightly different: “We sell rejuvenation.”
The “modern approach” to broadcasting regulation, according to the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC), involves ordering broadcasters to budget and produce content with diversity quotas in mind, while mandating that various groups of people be consulted every two years.
The AFP reports that the elite of Hollywood are set to meet in Los Angeles for a four-day summit designed to formulate a strategy to “tackle climate change.”
The report notes that THOUSANDS of stars, directors and writers will convene with “scientists and activists” in an effort to “encourage movies and TV shows to use their outsized influence on audiences around the world.”

Federal public servants worked on ways not to answer directly opposition MPs’ parliamentary questions, admitting that doing so raised a communication risk, internal government documents obtained under access to information show.
Civil servants in the Natural Resources Department recommended the use of “limitation language” to answer the written Commons questions from Conservative and NDP MPs, internal e-mails show.
The good news is most civil service positions can be replaced by a small chip upgrade to toaster ovens.

German police crime statistics presented in April grossly undercounted the number of knife attacks perpetrated in the country. The statistics presented by the President of the Federal Criminal Police Office (BKA) Holger Münch and the Federal Interior Minister Nancy Faeser (SPD) counted 8,160 knife attacks. Official figures from Germany’s federal states and state criminal investigation offices have revealed that the real number of knife attacks is significantly higher.

OceanGate CEO Stockton Rush, who went missing aboard his Titan submersible vessel along with four other passengers on Sunday, told an interviewer he didn’t want to hire a bunch of “50-year-old white guys” like other submarine companies because he wanted his team to be “inspirational.”
Catching up on that submarine story. Surprised to hear how people want them to die! Has the explorer spirit become something to despise? Or do people just collectively despise how the wealthy spend their money? #OceanGate #OceanGateSub #Titanic #TitanicSub #Submarine #Emergency pic.twitter.com/VAclL3mThU

As the weather gets warmer, so too are the tempers on GTA roads.
A woman was caught on camera lashing out at a man in Brampton when he tried to get her information after she allegedly hit his car.
#Brampton : Baljeet Kaur ,a Punjabi immigrant tried to run over a white male and then attempted to flee away while he was recording constantly assaulting him. Since when does having a camera in your face justify assault??

Meanwhile in Surrey
#SurreyBC : Sikh immigrants have now blocked roads to demand justice for their terrorist leader who was killed today . What does #Canada have to do with this ? Why don’t these people go back to their home country and fight there ? #Canadian immigration is a joke 🇨🇦

It is not uncommon for politicians or bureaucrats to lie. What seems to be unique, though, is just how common and consequential the lies were during the COVID pandemic.
On Monday, we got a bombshell. New documents indicate the entire justification for vaccine mandates was based on a falsehood — and that public health officials knew it.

Sensational 2021 claims that unmarked Indigenous child graves had been discovered in British Columbia now seem doubtful. But saying so may soon be a criminal offence
It’s now been more than two years since Canada was convulsed by claims that 215 unmarked graves of Indigenous schoolchildren had been discovered on the grounds of a former residential school in Kamloops, British Columbia. No actual bodies or human remains were in evidence—just ground-penetrating radar data indicating regularly-spaced soil dislocations. But you wouldn’t have known that from the breathless manner in which the story was reported at the time. A Global News headline announced the “Discovery of Human Remains at Kamloops Residential School Grounds.” Another, at the Toronto Star, declared, “The Remains of 215 Children Have Been Found.”
A “bold and brash” restaurant run by a queer, black chef in Oakland, California, closed amid claims of sexual harassment from its largely LGBTQ+ staff.
Hi Felicia — famed for its $195 tasting menu and “vulgar fine dining” — was created to be woke and “radically inclusive” but its owner, Imana, didn’t always promote those values according to former employees who spoke to the San Francisco Chronicle.
One employee named Dawn, a cook who identifies as non-binary, said they felt harassed after Imana allegedly made several comments about their body and genitalia, and said she was attracted to them.
