There's a wealthy village adjacent to my small city and we go there often for ice cream. Their streets are full of bikes, ebikes, scooters, golf carts, kids, and slow driving motorists. I attribute it completely to the street design and it pisses me off that we reserve it for the wealthy.

But when Smith's UCPers announced the RICHEST prov in Canada was going to cut those with the least, $200 when the feds increased their cheque by $200 - that was a kick in the pants. This prov gov is cruel to humans - & generous to corps.
"I have cerebral palsy. I am not on AISH. I am not on ADAP. But I have sat across kitchen tables from people who are, watched what this summer has done to their faces, and I have never in all my years writing this column felt as let down by this province as I do right now." #Alberta #abpoli

People HAD rights to repair purchased goods w parts kept available for yrs. Now companies design goods w limited lifetimes that can't be repaired b/c producers design unrepairable inferior products to sell. This shldn't be happening. U.S. leading the world in deliberate inferior design.
WE NEED 4 SEATS TO FLIP THE SENATE. JOSH TUREK SHOULD BE ONE OF THEM. I was researching Josh and came across one of his signature issues: Right to Repair. I had no idea how important this was. Most people in big cities probably don’t either. 🧵

@kootenaygreg.bsky.social I just realized I posted the sayings by Elliot Erwitt without using Alt Text. I've deleted that post and replaced it with Alt Text one.
Another 'new' finding for me. Photographers have a sense of curiosity. And Erwitt had it in spades. Thanks to Joel Edelman for his post sending me down the rabbit hole. www.joeedelman.com/elliot-erwitt
