All this elbow talk around tariffs has got me thinking about when I told my partner, who was rolling dough at the time, to put his elbows into it (no, I did not realize that what I was saying was, in fact, a malaphor).

Saw a new-to-me duck species today!! A White-Winged Scoter. Celebrating with a Ducks IPA, though the depicted duck, which I believe to be a Northern Shoveler, still eludes me. Times may be shit, but I can forget about that for a while when I see a cool DUCK. Oh yea and buy local?

This is important: A prospective Ford government has signalled its intention to expand prisons and put homeless people in jail rather than build the housing that people need and that is their fundamental right. I don't want a province that makes people homeless then throws them in prison.

The Ontario PC platform has been released: static.ontariopc.ca/uploads/2025... They have committed to re-tabling the Safer Municipalities Act, which makes being homeless in public a crime in Ontario. Every other party understands that the solution to homelessness is housing — not criminalization.

The graphics reads: The Ontario PC Party’s platform has stated that it intends to “clean up our streets by clearing out encampments.” They intend to do this by bringing back and passing the Safer Municipalities Act, which makes being homeless in public a crime. They are the only political party in Ontario that has committed to criminalizing homelessness in the province. Every other party — the NDP, Greens, and Liberals — has said that the solution to homelessness is housing.

This video is for Doug Ford, and all those in my replies saying bike lanes "stop emergency vehicles from getting to their destination". They *allow* emergency vehicles to get to their destination, as seen here on Adelaide. They were designed with emergency services in mind.
