The more people who take public transit, the better it gets. The more people who drive, the worse it gets.

Here's something to keep in mind... All this AI stuff is programs running on computers. Computers are based on silicon. Silicon is refined from sand. Sand is just ground up rocks. So your average AI is just barely more sentient than your average rock.

This is something I would very much like to see. Since you already need to periodically renew your driver's license, I would make the renewal conditional on passing a driving test.

Okay, so I'm two and a half weeks behind, but (ht @timothychambers.net ) this is fantastic and a reminder of why *protocols* matter so much over platforms, no matter what people say about any particular site or service.

3D printer company Bambu Lab went after a small developer for using their own open source code. The blowback was enormous and may have exposed something far more consequential. aftermath.site/bambu-lab-agpl...

There are Doug Ford protests planned all over Ontario on Saturday, May 30. Find one close to you here: protestdougford.com/may-30th-pro... If you’re in Toronto, see you at Queen’s Park (111 Wellesley Street West) from 11 am to 12:30 pm. #FightFord #DougFordIsCorrupt

American voters, please remember this. A vote for any Republican is a vote to allow Donald Trump to continue destroying the country with impunity. Not even at the halfway point in his Term, Donald Trump has done more damage to the USA's reputation than the USSR managed over its entire existence.

Please “go Native.” You’ve heard this phrase. “Welp, he’s gone Native.” Good. That would mean he’s for clean water for all, free housing for all, free medicine for all. Free childcare for all. Free education for all. So, by all means, go Native.

We at @spacing.bsky.social are trying to answer Billy Bishop questions our elected federal and provincial officials are avoiding answering. What would it cost, who will pay, and who benefits? Please read and share with people you know who are asking questions. Post this on neighbourhood lists.

It's a shame that "defend your culture" always means "hate strangers different from you" and never "enact anti-pollution laws so that you can go fishing with your grandkids the way your grandpa taught you."

Looks like another lazy #caturday morning.

Yes, Swiss scientist Fritz Zwicky coined the term “dark matter” which is impressive, but he also coined the term “spherical bastard” to describe people who are bastards no matter which way you look at them, and I think that should be celebrated more.

Ich did not make thys, but Ich wisshe Ich did. Repost yf you are a proud member of the Gen AI Backlash.

I recently broke both bones in my lower left leg. Ambulance trip, 5 days in hospital, surgery to put a pin in the leg, two casts, crutches, and a couple of prescriptions. Out of pocket costs about $400. $400, not $400K

It certainly looks like the TTC is doing its best to live up to the acronym "Take The Car!" www.cp24.com/local/toront...

The role of crossing guard was once seen as an idyllic job meant for local retirees. Today, most crossing guards are poorly paid contract workers employed by private companies, and their job is more dangerous than ever, writes Angela Misri @karmicangel.bsky.social. thelocal.to/crossing-gua...

The hardest room to escape.

"why isn't the left excited about tech anymore?" because we keep seeing the rug pulled out from underneath incredibly promising advances in energy and healthcare to fund the only things the tech community seems interested in: mass surveillance and billionaire vanity projects

Can someone please explain how taking an hour of daylight off the morning and adding it to the afternoon is supposed to give us a longer day.

It has been a very exhausting #caturday

Yes, you too can get health and beauty advice from a computer system known to get things wrong about 40% of the time. www.insauga.com/loblaw-annou...

Tis a lazy #caturday morning...

510 Spadina: No service between Queens Quay West at Lower Spadina Ave East Side and Union Station Streetcar Platform due to auto stuck in Queen's Quay tunnel.

The weather outside is clear and still... Clear up to your a$$ and still coming down!

A long long tyme ago Ich kan yet remembir How the music oft wolde make me smyle And Ich knewe that yf luck payed me court Thenne Ich koude make the folk cavort And mayhap to be mirtheful for a while

Sitting here in my chair looking out the window. All I can see is white. I'm really glad that work is closed due to the weather.

The Void is enjoying a lazy #caturday morning

Wow, this story has everything: - A young teen who takes a risk pursuing the field they're passionate about - Experts who take a risk and make room for them - Family vacation side quest with a supportive parent - International recognition - Big plans for the future - And cool invertebrate pics! 🕷️

If the USA invades Canada, they will capture the country in a week. They will then face the same situation they faced in Vietnam, Iraq, and Afghanistan. A guerilla war that they cannot win. There will be one important difference though. This time, guerilla fighters will have easy access to the USA.

Just a random image to keep @ruenahcmohr.bsky.social busy. Can you guess what I got myself for Christmas?

It's just a lazy #caturday morning

Sheesh. Some reporters seem to need to learn that a road is NOT a 'spot.' Recently published crime statistics for Peel region list 15 'hotspots.' Are all simply road names, and only three are less than 5km long!

Lazy #caturday mornings...

Bruno's #caturday nap.

So, what are the chances that Trump illegally declares war on Venezuela tomorrow? US courts have set a deadline of Friday for the release of the Epstein files, and Trump is going to need something to use as a distraction.

Well, it looks like I am going to be without water for a while. The water main nearby was having a leak repaired, but it broke completely before the work could be finished. My sympathies to the poor city workers who are going to be working in that at -9C! toronto.citynews.ca/2025/12/11/w...

Guess what I get to do over the holidays 😁

Speedbump and The Void. #caturday #proofofcat

Looking out the window at bare grass and dry pavement. At the same time reading news reports of 30+ cm of snow on the ground only about 65km away.

One of these things is not like the other... #proofofcat
