Just a reminder, especially in this wild time we live in. DO NOT INSTALL WORK MDM ON YOUR PERSONAL DEVICE.
If your work requires Microsoft Intune or similar MDM, to get email/teams/slack. don't accept it. It opens your device up for them to access private data and disable/delete your phone (even if they say they wont, they can)

Politics
@mos_8502 I'm writing a letter to my MP about just that honestly
I have no doubt Mexico's also doing the right thing there in turn. Heard plenty of good things between all the xenophobic propaganda, and I'm looking forward to Canada becoming BFFs with them
Just gonna throw this out there... I wouldn't mind finding some IRL social connections with other artists or creative types in the Greater #Toronto Area. I love the online community here, but I have no in-person interactions at all, and that kinda stinks!
Not looking for professional networking or educational groups, more just friendly get-together stuff for people connected by a common interest or shared experiences. Any locals who might be into that or in the know, toss me a line?
Cool that you're sharing a CIA manual about disrupting orgs, now share Riot Medicine with that same "just in case" energy you weirdos
@lyncia woolly chafer beetle, y/y
I am gonna try another shout out for local folks (every 6mos another pile of people join the fediverse)
I am looking for meatspace friends in the #guelph area. Super low key, hang out, walks, errands, watch movies, drink tea.
Added bonus if you like cooking/baking and/or are interested in #intentionalCommunities - I need some help zhuzhing up the kitchen heart of the nascent community I'm now in.
Am in a satellite town just east of Guelph propper, #kitchenerWaterloo folks might work too.
I ended up booting up No Man's Sky again because some of my friends are playing and I feel like I should just go down the list of #MechNames and grab them for every single ship and multitool I have
Great idea for Canadian policy
Great idea: Canada's response to the Trump tariffs should be to back out of the Intellectual Property law that America foisted on them as part of NAFTA. That would allow Canadian companies to offer third party app stores and jailbreaking services. This would hurt the profits of America's biggest companies and the billionaires supporting Trump, and benefit literally everyone else in the world. @pluralistic is a genius.
