“Countries Who’s Head Of State During WW2 Is Still Alive”: the story about Bulgaria’s Tsar Simeon II is quite something.

“Scientists Warn Carney’s Changes Will Bring ‘Wilful Extinction’”: Conservatives actively attack and defund environmental measures. Liberals just… ignore them, apparently, in favour of their industrial buddies. We’re well on our way to become the U.S. in a few years.

“The Last Museum” is surely going to be a very useful for anyone doing historical research for TTRPGs or whatever else requires historical research.

“Canadian wildfire misinformation is mutating online, thanks to AI slop”: you probably won’t learn anything you didn’t already suspected, but it’s always good to see a little bit of investigative journalism these days.

“Honest Government Ad: AI Data Centres”: Hahaha, “Banker Daddy and Oil Karen” is very on-point 😂

“Thousands sign petition calling for Pete Hoekstra’s removal from Canada”: this article’s got the link to the House Of Commons petition, in case you wanted to sign it.
