There can be no Indigenous Veterans day without Sgt. Tommy Prince being mentioned. Faithfully served to keep his ancestral land safe. He was not offered the respect he deserved in his later years despite being a decorated officer.

Here’s how a Twitter engineer says it will break in the coming weeks technologyreview.com/2022/11…
I had a dormant @joinmastodon account from way (way) back. I’ve hopped back on to try again. Handle is the same there as here, if you’re wanting to test things out with me.

You only need one account on one server to follow and interact with people from all across the Fediverse. Think of it like your telephone: you only need one phone with one SIM card to call anyone in the world. fedi.tips/mastodon-and-the-f…
For all the data on oxytocin & love & social bonding, “allogrooming”: receiving non-sexual cleaning type touch from another human (think hair brushing, hair cut, skin care or even someone applying the lint roller to your shirt) leads to huge increases in oxytocin. Who knew?

I would like to see cable news operate more like professional soccer -- have brands sponsor coverage instead of continuously breaking for commercials. Would be a compelling innovation for the morning shows in particular.

Maybe the City of Winnipeg could consider adding one last yard-waste pickup the week following Halloween each year…
Keep pumpkins out of the landfill, Winnipeg organizations ask: "When organics go to our landfill, it doesn't decompose as nature intended. There is no oxygen present in the landfill …there's no healthy microbes that are breaking down those organic goods" cbc.ca/news/canada/manitoba/…

Nokia is promising a $340M expansion of its Canadian HQ in Kanata, but the labs and offices are less than half the project. It’s also planning a $400M+ residential and retail development. Turns out the kids today don’t want to drive to work. thelogic.co/news/the-big-rea…
