This guy is great: "I don't want the stain of what used to be the Republican Party on me anymore. There is no Republican Party. It's just MAGA, and they're dead."

NEW — I spoke to Tom, the guy at the South Carolina Trump rally who compared the president's supporters to the Jonestown Massacre. We talked about his loathing for Trump, his love of death metal, and where he learned his impeccable comedic timing. Read our full chat here:

Obama is going to rage-bait Trump into entirely losing it at this rate.

OBAMA: The President is spending time super gluing gold medallions to the mantle in the Oval Office. He is literally doing arts and crafts while we are fighting a war.

Brad Bradford ran an explicitly anti-bike-lane campaign. It was front and center. Once again, it’s a losing political position. What we’re seeing in Toronto and elsewhere is the dying gasps of the dinosaurs.

King & Bay Henge.

And the freaking greatest thing I have ever seen: this intersection has a traffic signal that is set by DEFAULT for pedestrians and cyclists, cars have to activate to cross. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

There it is. Elon Musk admits it. “That loophole was closed last week.” In a deranged post on X, Musk openly acknowledges that SpaceX recently restricted Ukraine’s ability to use Starlink.

Ooh! And mark your calendars. Toronto Henge is on Sunday at 6:18pm

TW Last week our client was cycling in Hamilton. He passed James Newlands in his grey pickup truck. Words were exchanged, Newlands sped unsafely past our client then brake checked. Shocking video confirmed Mr. Newlands intentions & shed light on this terrible incident of road rage 1/3

Introducing Toronto's first (?) election night live result projection! Over the course of election night, the CN Tower will move along the bike wheel tracking who is more likely to be elected mayor as the votes come in! I've included a sneak preview of the page from my testing.

Trump got made and asked Natalie what hydronym means.

Starting to understand how Trump ran an Atlantic City Casino into the ground. Pulling shit like threatening to rename a Great Lake just to be annoying is not something you do when you've got cards left to play

I have gotten earbud volume warnings while the volume is on max and I legitimately could not hear the podcast i was listening to because cars on the road next to me were so loud.

As the Trump & Carney Govts finger point about the cataclysmic ending of trade discussions, it’s a moment where credibility and past track records come in handy. Based on those, we can have confidence that Canada will be generally telling the truth, and everything the Trump Govt says will be a lie.

The whole world needs to stand up to this out-of-control, corrupt, narcissistic bully and criminal, who literally doesn’t care that he’s imploding the US economy, hurting countless families and businesses, and dragging the entire global economy down with him. It actually may be his specific intent.

A calm Sunday morning above the cooling tree canopy on my balcony in the center of Paris. Cities are pin drop quiet when there is no car or motorcycle traffic. Cities aren't noisy - motor vehicles are. #Paris #15minutecity #urbanism #climate #tree #noise #thewaroncars #environment

Got a good job down at the Data Center. I work on the line, and it's hard work but it's honest and the wage is fair; my family and I are grateful for it. I rivet the word "absolutely" onto the little apologies that chatbots do when they misunderstand a prompt.

Hassett: "Data centers are very good for towns bc they create so many jobs & bring people in with high incomes that can buy houses & stuff like that. So if you take a sleepy town that hasn't seen much in the last 30 years & put a data center there, there are gonna be a bunch of happy residents."

Riding bikes is 10X more important than electric cars for reaching net-zero cities. And that’s just the climate emissions. Doesn’t include the massive public & personal cost difference, the air & noise pollution difference, the massive space difference, etc, etc…Via @theconversation.bsky.social

Cycling is ten times more important than electric cars for reaching net-zero cities

Active travel can help tackle the climate crisis earlier than electric vehicles – even if you swap the car for a bike for just one trip a day.
