And Yurikuma Arashi and Sarazanmai. Ikuhara always stays in the same vein.

The most similar anime I can think of that's isn't his is Princess Tutu.

I think it depends on the individual. The ones I get are definitely crappy (and occasionally hilarious, like the time it was trying to sell me a copy of Latin for Gardeners.)

Poor thing—the one time he shows some level of caution and understanding of what he's getting into, he's overridden by someone else having a brain meltdown. 🤣

If by that you mean "headquartered in Canada and manufacturing in Canada for the Canadian market" then the answer is no, I'm pretty sure the last ones vanished no later than the middle of the 20th century. Some US and other foreign companies do have manufacturing and assembly plants here, but I wouldn't call them Canadian. (Ford Canada used to be semi-independent and produced some own-model vehicles early on, but they're nothing more than a subsidiary of the US company now.)

Mostly T and T-adjacent, to be exact—some of the other letters seem to have become too mainstream to generate enough hate to be useful to them.

Join an instance that's already explicitly defederated from them (there are several). Or set up your own.

Short-term vs long-term. People are currently worried about short-term costs to the exclusion of long-term ones. You're correct that not investing in green solutions has a high long-term cost, but people who are struggling to keep a roof over their heads and food on the table don't have the mental resources to worry about the condition of the world and its influence on prices a year or a decade or a century from now. And that may not be right, but it's the way things are.

I probably shouldn't be posting when I feel too awful to concentrate, either. Apologies.

A skim of the article shows that it was not written from the viewpoint of a parent having to calm a hysterical crying child after having watched the movie. GotF is an emotional gut-punch even for adults. Incredibly powerful film, but that means it has to be treated with care and respect. That doesn't mean it can't be shown to children, but anyone who does so needs to be prepared for the consequences.

(As for me, I was in grad school when I saw it. I'm glad I did, but I don't think I will ever be able to bring myself to watch it again.)

Hopefully we at least took away his passport after he pulled this.

Skimming the article, the suggestion seems to be to use "people" or "humans" rather than "users" This is idiotic on the face of it: "user" refers specifically to a person who is interacting with a computer, not just any person. There are, y'know, still human beings in this world who have never encountered a computer. Some of them never will. There's no wifi on North Sentinel Island, but the inhabitants are definitely humans and people.

Certain provincial governments have developed a tendency to scream "but jurisdiction!" about any federal policy that might affect them, whether or not it's useful or justified to do so and regardless of what other stimuli are applied.
