Nature not a blocker to housing growth, inquiry finds

Devastated to hear someone dear to my heart has a long road ahead in recovery. I don’t know if she’ll read this, and it’s not up to me to know what the condition might be. But if she does, let it be known that she is on my mind.

I'm here outside Speaker Johnson’s office because he is starving families and gutting health care to cover up the Epstein Files. Change my mind.

Does that mean a party cannot expel a MP/MLA from caucus too? Banning floor crossing, or requiring an immediate by-election, gives party leaders even MORE power.

My era of gainful unemployment is finally over: Next week I’ll be joining The McCain Institute as the Program Coordinator for their Global Democracy team 🌍 In this new role, I’ll be focusing on frontline democracies, including Ukraine 🇺🇦 1/

A cultural revolution? Trump’s America feels oddly familiar to those watching from China

vancouver planning in the 21st century is developers and the city patting themselves on the back for a sustainable mixed-used community that pays homage to the industrial past while using modern best practices where a two bedroom condo costs a million dollars and there are no schools

@acallan1.bsky.social Aye or Nay that Freeman broke Franklin? For long time I thought he's eventually gonna get over the hurdle, but Oregon one changed my mind first, and UCLA consolidated the change.

open.substack.com/pub/thenight... Facing lethargy and disinterest, ONDP needs reassessment and realignment. A grassroots movement, inspired by the OLP's successful New Leaf Liberals initiative, could be the answer for them too:

it kind of blows my mind how much AI enthusiasts devalue reliable accuracy. for a while there we had an internet where you could find an accurate and truthful answer to almost any question you could think of. We have traded that away for…..? I’m not entirely sure what the gains are here

One thing this era is teaching us is that people of principle are few and far between. Hollywood has not reacted like the Kimmel thing is existential for artists, to its grave peril. Good for her.

Of all the stupid things that this regime has done, this is right up near the top. Postdoctoral researchers come to the US on H-1B visas. This will further destroy the US science enterprise. Stupid stupid stupid.

Good. This province is in *desperate* need of an alternative to Doug Ford, and she wasn't it. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

the US doesn't have a political violence problem in the same way as it doesn't have a polarisation problem, or a congressional gridlock problem It has a radicalized right problem

US political violence overwhelmingly comes from the right - the side that calls for, glorifies, & literally pardons it

Bridget Phillipson and Lucy Powell set for two-horse race to be Labour deputy

Yikes. This was released from the Epstein estate and has just been handed over to Congress.

@nathanielarfin.bsky.social with a piece @ontarioliberal.bsky.social should read into their future: www.policorner.ca/p/arfin-the-...

BREAKING: ICE is sending Russian dissidents back to Russia. When the dissidents arrived in Russia, the Russian authorities were given documents relating to their asylum applications in the US which under US law are confidential. This seems to be part of a secret agreement between Trump and Putin.

Warnock to RFK jr: "For the first time, we are seeing deaths of children from measles. We haven't seen that in two decades. We're seeing that under your watch. You are a hazard to the health of the American people."

What's making me pull my hair out is that Shor isn't even a data "scientist." He started on the 2012 Obama campaign as a 20-year-old, got assigned to the quantitative team, then started referring to himself as a "data guru." Zero formal education in methodology, survey design or policy analysis.

Poilievre is a liar! #cdnpoli

I hope the new speaker of the house, Francis Scarpaleggia, shows immediately that he won't tolerate lies and improper behaviour by PP and his gang of schoolyards brats. The previous speaker was unable to exert any meaningful control in the house.

‘Racist as hell’: Trump’s cabinet is almost all white, and he keeps firing Black officials

I have an assignment in one of my courses that gets students to fact check and critique a briefing note written by a LLM. The students learn fairly easily how error prone, though slickly written, these AI generated briefing notes are.

Crazy hot, dry weather in the Kingston region. Drought continues. Wildfires are burning in parts of Ontario. Please obey burning bans. Do not carelessly discard burning cigarettes.
