the only "bsky is a bubble" take you will ever need

I think we should be shouting this from the streets and making sure everyone is fully aware they're going to get rugpulled eventually. The more of You that you offload to LLMs and the like the worse it'll be for you when they jack up the prices to actually push profit. Don't be a tool.

it's real support from actual racists

If I’m not evolved enough to understand it, then why did they have to steal my writing to train it?

No, Mark Carney isn't just like Stephen Harper on climate and the environment, as some have argued lately. But he's not like Justin Trudeau either. That's a good thing, as far as climate policy is concerned. Today's announcement proves it. #cdnpoli www.nationalobserver.com/2026/05/15/o...

Hey. Me again. @timtierney.ca, you seemed to really enjoy using the observations of BTO, especially after calling "plant" on them. Now here is a question for you: why you think it would be wise to launch a line if not 100% ready in order to achieve a date so you can brag to your voters?

Hey, councillor @timtierney.ca Reminder that democratic participation doesn't rely on which ward someone comes from. They bring genuine concerns. @bettertransitottawa.ca has done something you haven't done: ask questions and identify what can be done to improve service. Not just slogans.

this graduation speech moment is notable, and her amazed shock at having failed to read the room feels instructive. when you're inside the bubble, you think everybody else is. but everybody isn't.

Cool story bro? I'm recovering all my photos from an old hard drive into Immich. And I've reached about 2014, and suddenly, there's a LOT less photos. Guess when we started switching to phones. Just a weird, perhaps fascinating observation.

People who don’t bike anywhere often have virtually zero knowledge of how to do it. What routes exist, which ones are safe, how they connect or go places. Same thing behind the “we have enough bike lanes!” crowd.

Things that should not be run like businesses: universities, hospitals, and government. Things that should be run like businesses: businesses. Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk.

“Airports charge operating fees to airlines to cover their bottom lines, and the airlines in turn pass those fees on to passengers. Sims said the fees rose ‘massively’ after Australia privatized its airports.” Australia provides a cautionary tale on privatize airports, just as on private healthcare

106 years ago today, on May 7th, an undergraduate at Christchurch College, Oxford, drank a glass of port then left through the main gates for a walk. I've been thinking about him, & his walk, for years now. It's taken a long time for me to figure out why - why I've kept returning, near obsessed.
