Vem cá, desde quando brasileiro resolveu que “dó” é substantivo feminino? Eu tenho percebido isso cada vez com mais frequência.
“Dá uma dó”

Gente, dó é masculino, ok?

“Dá um dó” - fácil assim

Falar / escrever errado nossa própria língua não é legal. Desvaloriza nossa cultura.

I'm told OpenAI is experiencing an outage (despite all the RAM hoarding and destructive datacenters) and I can't help but wonder how many LinkedIn influencers are crying right now

Wait, Claude is *also* having an outage!

Please tell me there's something happening! https://status.claude.com/

As well as Grok???

@evan Absolutely yes.
Every single person will make a racist statement, eventually.

What differentiates an isolated statement from being racist:
- is this a slip or a regular occurrence
- was it a genuine mistake and is the person genuinely interested in never making the mistake again
- is the person engaged in proactively learning to not make those mistakes

Not 100% guaranteed to work but good filtering.

A Canadian told me today “I’m going on a trip to the US next week but I promise that I hate it there”, because they feel I’m angry at them for visiting the US

I’m not angry, I’m disappointend and I also think any Canadians who choose to spend their money in a country full of people and led by people who are actively trying to destroy ours are really not smart

Lendo Agosto do Rubem Fonseca e me dando conta que o Chefe do Gabinete Militar do Getúlio Vargas em 1954 era primo-algumacoisa (first cousin once removed, nao sei se existe isso em Português) do atual candidato à presidência Ronaldo Caiado.

Têm umas famílias políticas que são como um câncer, dão metástase por gerações, só digo isso.

Happy day fellow lefties! #lefthanded

As a student I encountered barriers to writing by not having a single desk for left handed in my 4th grade class. I advocated for myself and made a big deal of it - I was the top student of 4th grade and that’s how they were treating me?
The nuns liked me (yes they did!) and ordered me the first left handed desk of the school. It opened the door for other lefties to have desks too 💪
That was 1990! Not a distant past

Things I'd love in products as a human who uses products:
- BUTTONS that react to me pushing them, instead touch sensing things
- PANELS that show relevant information like is this thing on or off, why is it suddenly not elegant to display the status
- MANUAL OVERRIDES yes 80s sci fi taught us that is important
- NO WI FI OR APP for anything that should not be online, like a refrigerator

Hey good morning and GOOD NEWS everyone! At least for now!

No airport expansion! The fouetées are safe! #toronto #onpoli

If you are from #toronto and have ever wondered “I would have loved to learn ballet but maybe I’m too old now” - maybe you aren’t. The National Ballet of Canada, at Queens Quay and Spadina, has absolute beginner lessons for adults. It’s a wonderful space and community, safe and welcoming.

It’s my favourite place in Toronto and I’m glad that fucking airport won’t disturb it. I have been taking lessons there forever, I’m terrible, I love it!

@xenotar Os animais eu acho que, de um jeito ou de outro, acabam migrando aos poucos, visto que animal não precisa de passaporte. As plantas, no entanto, não têm como levantar raízes.

Fode com o ecossistema todo.

@autobrain Você com frio e nós assando aqui

@autobrain 😹😹😹

Mas, sério, ninguém me disse que era assim no Canadá

(E sempre *piora* em Agosto 👍)
