Progressive. Never Conservative. Science, climate change, wealth inequality. Woke. Proud Canadian born in Yellowknife now happily vaxxed in Toronto. Need more nice. Like science esp. astronomy, news, reading everything but mostly SFF, horror, mystery.
Max Miller claims that he was willing to release the kidnapped bunny his daughter โforgotโ, but only if he could hand it directly to a US Senator who probably didnโt want to go anywhere near him.

Ontarioโs lesson is simple. Speed safety cameras are effective. We need more of them. Removing them invites disaster. Donโt do it.
Automated Traffic Enforcement Is More Popular Than You Think
Cameras that ticket drivers who run red lights and speed are effective and widely popular with city residents. So why are they banned in so many places?

SpaceX stock dropped another 12% yesterday after AI spending rattled investors. For every $1 of revenue (not profit, income) they're burning $2 of cash. One analyst described it as, "Rockets burn fuel. SpaceX burns money."

Stephanie Bowman is the real deal. She knows how the real world works and what needs to be done to make it better. A great heart who would make the ideal next Premier of Ontario after the benighted Ford fiasco years. ๐๐๐๐๐ www.torontotoday.ca/local/politi...

We will keep re-electing Doug Ford, even though everyone agrees the province is worse off under him, he's terrible at governing, and mired by corruption.
The immediate impact of Ontarioโs expense scandal is marginal. The PCs still lead by eight. But a majority of Ontarians see a broader culture of entitlement, and 41% say the story has made them more negative about the Ford government. NEW POLL: abacusdata.ca/expense-sca...

Big Brave โCaptain Canadaโ #DougFord in #Ontario ๐คฃ โWhen you have a premier who is running away from the people, you got a big problem, and that's where we're at right now. Doug Ford doesn't want to be asked the difficult questions, not by the media and not by the opposition,โ Stiles said.

The fact that the Democratic senators are agreeing to a continuing resolution until Dec 11th with NO compromises for them is absolute political malpractice and head scratching. Why not even try to ban likeโฆ. The arch? Anything!
"The Montreal shooterโs rhetoric was typical of incel culture. He treats women as subhuman objects of desire with no agency. He hates feminism because he believes it gives women power over sex and romance, and allows them to freely choose their own partners.โ An editorial by @mtltoula.bsky.social.
Treat incels as the violent extremists they are
Misogynistic incel subculture โ elements of which have become disturbingly mainstream โ is a serious public safety threat.

"The podium was there. The press wasnโt. Premier Doug Ford has increasingly been attending what appear to be government announcements without inviting reporters. A review by The Trillium has found at least 5 examples since mid-May, when this practice appeared to become more frequent." ๐ #OnPoli
