The drama continues in Lunenburg. I really feel for this business owner. The whole situation is pretty shitty.

When we win, the first bill I’m filing is a comprehensive anti-corruption package: Overturn Citizens United Ban corporate PACs and super PACs Ban members of Congress from trading stocks Once we defeat the most corrupt politician in America, we can defeat this entire corrupt system.

In a way are we not all a little bit like Tom Loftis? (Widow's Bay 10/10 no notes)

Anyone telling you the UK needs to drill for more oil because fossil fuels are cheaper is lying "A solar panel that would have cost a family's entire annual income in the 1970s now costs less than a restaurant meal per panel." www.facebook.com/beyondscienc... meme via Beyond Science Facts

Face it, Donny. The world leaders are literally turning their backs on you. Nobody likes you. Not even a little. 😂

In his latest dispatch, Justin Ling scares the living crap out of us. A must read.

Everyone who is scared of cities and multiculturalism is a loser.

did you guys know they still allowed good news

There were over 46k Bike Share rides in Toronto yesterday, more than the average ridership of the Queen streetcar. The cost to the city to operate that streetcar was over $50k/day in 2015. Bike share costs the city $8k/day. 6x as cost efficient. Smart cities invest in cycling.

"We are in extreme danger," says climate scientist Peter Kalmus @climatehuman.bsky.social. He warns that this summer "could be the hottest summer we've ever experienced in our lives, but it could also be the coolest summer for the rest of our lives."

Of course he did. Are people still surprised by him?

This is unhinged. - Halifax already counts bikes! They have many permanent counters, and the data is public. - I could find you a hundred roads within walking distance of my home that have less than 50 cars per hour. Is anyone questioning whether they should exist?

No words. #BookSky

I'm not sure "Local man invents unverified pseudoscientific reason to malign bike infrastructure" merits a news story.

Chrétien: When you look at the polls, Canadians have never been more united. Thank you to Donald Trump for that. I should propose him for the Order of Canada, but I cannot succeed. Do you know why? Rosie: He's not Canadian? Chrétien: Because we don't give it to a person who has a criminal record.

The demand destruction for fossil fuels caused by the US war with Iran is rapid and permenent. Canada won't be able to bring more fossil fuels to market fast enough to change these calculations.

the single biggest takeaway i have from this interview is that on top of being profoundly incompetent, bari weiss and her flunkies at CBS are genuinely terrible human beings. www.nytimes.com/2026/06/07/m...

It’s always startling visiting other cities and realizing “oh, yeah, right, cars can turn through a red light here”.

Sigh.

My maternal grandfather landed D-Day + 4 as a sapper with 6th RCE. He rarely spoke about his war experience, but lived the rest of his life as if he was on borrowed time, for example spraying apple trees with no PPE, or even upwind, because if the war didn't kill him, the spray wouldn't!

Last week I wrote a piece where I said that batteries were a gas power assassin. @robshum.bsky.social pointed out that the correct word to describe batteries is "gassassin." Either way, there is a killing going on down under.

So had an unexpected layover in #Halifax and went for a walk last night. Went by the Central Library; such a great building. Beautifully detailed & sited in the heart of a community, connected to a bustling neighborhood. Loads of public space and seating out front, side and back 1/

I don't blame you! If I could leave, I would...

20 years ago we went to Harmony Bazaar in Lockport. That afternoon the youngest had up and disappeared and we were tearing around the festival site looking for them. They resurfaced and when asked "Where were you!?" said "backstage hanging out with Rita! She's nice. She gave me a can of pop!" :)
