It is a net cost savings when municipal snow removal prioritize the routes of folks using transit, walking, biking etc, They have to get to work, get kids to school, seniors to appts, etc etc Not plowing sidewalk slows down the local economy/services AND increases health care costs from injuries.

Hint, they do not care about support; they are grabbing power and intend to keep every bit of the power they grab. 'Support' is when you have a Democracy and care about your constituents. They do not care about us, and this is why they must be defeated.

any time a politician answers a question with, "I don't know anything about what you asked about, but what I DO know is..." someone should come and just pie them in the fucking face because we didn't ask you about whatever the fuck talking point you had loaded and ready to go, so now you can eat pie

Should Canada be striking deals with dictatorships and authoritarian states? What compromises will Canada have to make to chase more global trade? @jeyantvo.bsky.social asks @shannongormley.bsky.social and @maharaj.org (GOPAC, Munk School) tonight at 8pm | Producer: Preeti Bhuyan

Goodnight my beautiful golden suns.

If you think you're good and you want to sic ICE on your neighbors, you're not good.

>Quimby said the new review process protects students from being taught content to which parents might object. Quimby, though, said for the most part he doesn’t read proposed materials himself and instead leans on teacher friends to help. “I hate reading,” he said< Men are so deeply embarassing

Why innovate in anticipation of future needs when we can double down the money pit and destructive O&G industry "Any expansion will have to come from less favourable deposits with higher environmental costs. " Good thing PMCarney cancelled austerity measures on the top 5% so they can profit most.

I was worried my kids would rely on AI as a shortcut but they hate it. They use "AI" to mean stupid or cheap ("aimbot" means good). I tried to say AI is helpful for some things and my daughter said "yeah, for making you stupid." This is how they talked about Drake after "Not Like Us" came out

This is actually quite brilliant, up to and including the final sentence 🔥

This explains something that has always mystified me about drivers who rail against bike lanes and transit. Why WOULDN'T you want people to have options not to drive? It would make your own driving better! But they don't just want good traffic, they want to reinforce the NORM of driving

Was hanging with a friend and put on Sleepers (1996) 'cos this confrontation in the mid point is so incredibly writ & acted but damn if this pain isn't ever so enabled everywhere Abuser: I did you a favor Victim: (says the abuse by name) Abuser: you're sick youtu.be/wMgipTql_Vk?...

The most precious commodity you have is your attention. You don’t have to waste it on poor-faith debates or arguments with strangers if you don’t think they’ll be productive. You can prioritize the things that matter to you and make your life richer.

🌟 Australia will be the first nation to ban social media accounts for any child or teen under the age of 16. 🥳 👏🏻

can’t stand the mona lisa. I hate it when women smile. What’s so funny? My tiny penis?

Great idea, @jangray.bsky.social ! www.thestar.com/opinion/star...

I'm well out of the delivery zone so I'll have to get started on making my holiday puddings soon!!

Ugh so pretty

Still edible but (。-_-。)

Here's a note I sent to our members about what we did with their money, and why we expect the Onion to outgrow the Washington Post. We keep doing weird, hard shit — taunting ICE, yelling at Congress for not taunting ICE, buying bad websites — when nobody else does. Our members keep getting papers.

this is the greatest Christmas movie ever made and if you disagree you're wrong

It's insane how Doug can keep passing bills that grant himself excessive powers, immunity from laws and absolves him from accountability. If one of Doug's donor/drinking friends driving 40 over the limit crashes into a family, how far will Doug go to protect that friend? #TeamMaritStiles #Onpoli

It always wrecks me when people in an oppressed group are itching to oppress another. We should be fighting to destroy the boot on our collective necks, not fighting to wear them. No half-way free. No part-time nazis.

The dental hygienist used to leave the room after the patient was handed the little cup of fluoride solution to rinse for 30 seconds. Now they stay the whole time. And all the sinks are mysteriously out of order.

Shameful and disappointing. Climate management isn't something you can put in the cupboard to deal with later. This project will balloon in costs as increased severity of natural disasters causes significant delays and incidents in construction alone. Bad fucking investment.

The climate crisis won’t wait and neither will we. With this team, we’ll meet it head-on.

Misead the title as "You must think I just fell off the trump truck" which is exactly what I think about doug ford. The blatant corruption, favors, and theft of ontario lands and coffers. www.thestar.com/news/gta/dou...

Love to see it. #MariStiles bringing teeth to protect the people. #DougFord wants to threaten audits on his political opponents? Make it a double dare, doug, lets see the audit results from your teams and supporters #ontario #onpoli nowtoronto.com/news/ontario...

TAPS SCREEN For like the zillionth time: Libraries are FREE for you, but WE still get compensated for our work!!

Victor Hugo knew in 1862: Valjean: all I did was steal some bread Javert: my duty’s to the bread

Deer My Friends Yesturday a bunch of payed left wing agitaters stormed Queen Spark and disruppted me not answering questions but I am going to investugate all the fundeen the NDP gives these bicyclists because obveeawsly the NDP are doing bad things with tax money and my goverment is not. Premair

The bizarre infinite forgiveness conservative voters have for their politicians but any party to the left have to be the squeekiest of clean or pariahed forever. Conservatives are incredibly wasteful with our tax money. Set us back in innovation. Threaten protected speech and personal autonomy.

Trying to understand how Kathleen Wynne's scandals leave the Ontario Liberals in no man's land for eternity and Ford skates.

The RCMP will be right on this just as soon as they wrap up that rush investigation of the greenbelt scandal.…

Is Dougie getting more brazen with the grift? Why wouldn’t he? He’s gotten away with deep levels of corruption from day one - with zero accountability #RCMP #greenbelt

There are no laws in #Ontario just crooks and crooks with badges.

Nothing screams "I'm not a greedy corrupt tyrant" quite like declaring those who disagree with you "radical groups" and "antisemetic". Wtf. These radicals were peacefully participating in the very democracy #ProgressiveConservatives are dismantling. #TeamMaritStiles globalnews.ca/news/1154280...

I don't want to see news about bullshit trump drama. What he says is irrelevant. Actions only. We have our own trump at home. #DougFord fucking ontario for all he can profit and salt We're so hosed if we don't get it together. #MaritStiles has a name. Would love to see the media remember that.

when we say we want more streets to be pedestrianized, this is what we mean

All the adverts for AI products are like "Why would you talk with your friends when you can be a total fucking loser instead" It's bizarre. Maybe I'm just old (which is awesome)

Yes more of this please. Gambling should be treated like alcohol and nicotine: a vice that can destroy your life. The ads are everywhere and gross. Major League sports are unwatchable #Canada #canpoli www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

thinking about how my parents escaped vietnam, where the CIA destabilized my family's home country by spreading misinformation, and they landed in the united states, which is now getting destabilized bc someone in vietnam is spreading misinformation

Goodnight my beautiful golden suns. See you in a week.

Yuck. If we needed speakers about the frontlines we have sooooo many canadian veterans to choose from. Imagine going to a talk about fishing and the lead speaker keeps a barrel full of fish and carries a shotgun instead of a rod. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Former Finnish PM Sanna Marin put it bluntly: “To end the conflict, Russia must leave Ukrainian territory.” Just one point. Nothing more to discuss.

I had to find out how cute this was. Turns out: incredibly cute and I needed to know this. I put some time into these alt-tags

#DougFord is setting Ontario up for so much debt not even a Quebec bailout in exchange for 90 years cheap electricity will save us. Tore down our #ScienceCenter because then "roof repairs" are too much. Engineers who wrote that report should lose their rings.

I have a problem. A terrible obsession. A dangerous need to tempt fate. How do I stop myself.

talkin' about the AI bubble

When I see arguments about whether mental health problems are caused by trauma or neurotype or society or brain chemistry I feel like I'm watching two people have a fist fight over whether Kermit is a Muppet or a frog. Multiple things can be the case simultaneously. One does not negate the others.
