My old friend with a flash of inspiration for his newly created LIVE TV channel. Jan 29, 2003 - before youtube, before Twitch, before 'livestreaming' and 'podcasting' were even words yet. This is historic. Tooker Tapes Archive Project v.140

Holy Crap! I was just in Canmore Alberta last month. I wish I'd known their transit was free, would've checked it out. This is a good reference page while travelling, for sure.

“Every fraction of a degree means more hunger, displacement and loss – especially for those least responsible. This is moral failure – and deadly negligence,” he said. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

"He argued that the constant pursuit of economic growth has made it "too late" to prevent the worst effects of global warming, although he has not given up on action. He is now urging a shift in focus to building local community adaptability." @climatecasino.net www.ipolitics.ca/2025/07/02/i...

I can't recall hearing of any countries President musing about evacuating their capital.

Every day, millions of people across the country are being tracked without their consent by Flock Safety's automatic license plate readers. Our leaders must listen to the outcry and stop using this invasive surveillance tech in our communities.

I noticed an account into photography recently followed, so i thought I'd share a couple of pics I took a few years ago of an underpass corridor popular with graffiti artists in Edmonton, Alberta.

If this was a stock price graph, it's still a good time to buy.

F***! It looks like it's up to us then. "... movements can push governments to end fossil fuel subsidies, protect forests, and regulate the industries that profit from delay"

I do love a thoroughly understated headline.

Alberta is building the same system with capacity for 300 adults in secure drug jails, plus room for 500 children seized for drug detention each year. The legislation is already in place (Compassionate Intervention Act) and citizens are already being appointed to legally empowered decision panels.

There is clearly a difference between sane, rational governance and whatever the F we have in Alberta, who's UCP Gov. made history today passing legislation using the notwithstanding clause. I don't totally get it but glad there's people like Wab who do.

Cool story! While working on Tooker Tapes Archive Project I found an historical interview with Adrian from '01. I was happy to locate him, and even more so because he's doing some really great work in journalism at Carleton U, as well as these podcasts. youtu.be/X7cSveqYsz0?...

@juliabutterflyhill.bsky.social that time you spoke at Toronto's Car Free Day (?). I am currently archiving Tooker Gomberg's (in bkgnd) video collection and was pleasantly surprised to see you. I will endeavor to parse out the video of your talk and a bit of you cycling, fyi.

From the Tooker Tapes - Exorcising Ghosts. A little something I cut together from raw archival footage of #Montreal Street Theatre Action. Tooker brings up the 1st ever #Car-Free Cities Convention in Lyon, and practices some #guerrilla-gardening too. youtu.be/PxnPaFZsUvo?...

Hey Americans of BlueSky.... Good job yesterday. Seriously, brilliant work. Now do it again. And again. And again. And again until the job is done. Don't let up on the pressure.

I watched The Sum of All Fears last night again. Interesting premise of stolen/gifted materials to Israel, weaponized then lost and found by modern Fasc., used to incite nuke war between US and Russia. Netflix still generally sucks however.

Interesting story. I also had not heard of this and look forward to learning more. " ... the National Reconnaissance Office says it has launched more than 200 satellites as part of its "proliferated architecture" system to facilitate military Earth observations and communications missions. "

I don't exactly know what fedposting is but I sure do like the enthusiasm expressed here.

This is.... not good www.newscientist.com/article/2500... Particularly because scientists increasingly suspect that the planet is locked in a vicious feedback loop, where climate impacts like drought & marine heatwaves are dampening the planet's natural ability to take up carbon

spoiler! we can't. Even if there was NO resistance to Climate Action the changes are coming too fast now. We can not effectively adapt to changes forthcoming, only react.
