Spent five years in Paris, left 15 or so years ago. The photographs Brent posts of Paris are astonishing and hopeful.

Gritty, grey side streets for cars are now green and lively with people. Bicycle lanes on rue de Rivoli?? The only time I saw bicycles on it was the finish of the Tour de France.

It's true! When I studied economics, I was stunned by the ROI of social programs. Every dollar spent on childcare returns about $2.80 to the economy, and healthcare delivers even greater returns with broader social impact.

A universal basic income is simply smart fiscal policy. Why the reluctance?

The last two times the world did this caused depressions.

Wow!

I have been warning about the economy for months. What is happening at the Texas State Fair will happen throughout the holidays. People will NOT be spending on any extras. Thank The Orange Grinch.

MAJOR BREAKING: In a late-night order, Judge Immergut, a Trump-appointee, has BLOCKED Trump from deploying the National Guard from ANY state or D.C. into Oregon.

I wonder if Americans will get to the point where they intervene regularly to stop the kidnappings?

This video of Chicagoans intervening to save a man from being abducted off the streets by ICE is making the rounds on Instagram.

Didn't a judge already say no?

According to Russia, both Israel and Russia are blackmailing him.

Maybe he isn't just a child sex predator. Maybe he was a trafficker? He certainly was upset that Jeffrey Epstein stole his employee. What employees would Jeffrey Epstein be looking to steal?

Do Germans already have a word or did you make that up because knowing the Germans they might have a word?

State sanctioned murder is considered acceptable.

When soldiers kill.

When health-care CEOs kill.

Luigi Mangione may have committed murder, I don't know.

What I know is that he killed fewer people than the man he allegedly killed.

Searched and read about the history of the owners: Webster Wagner and Susan Davis of Palantine New York.

Serious question, not looking for flippant replies — smart people have told me that my “outspoken” Trump posts mean I’m likely on “a list” and would likely have serious issues at the border if I tried to go into the US to advise a US city.

Not saying I want to do that, but do you think it’s true?

Supreme Court of Canada grants stay in the case of B.C. ostrich cull | CBC News The Supreme Court of Canada has issued a stay in the case of a B.C. Ostrich farm fighting to stop a cull of its 400-bird flock over an avian flu outbreak.

Found this:
www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

The Supreme Courtdirected that the CFIA maintain custody of the birds and said the farm must not interfere with federal oversight pending a decision on the application. The agency must file any response by Oct. 3.

Build it and they will come is a real thing. 🏡 🌳👫🤸‍♀️ 🚵‍♀️

I haven't heard anything about that aspect on the Canadian news.

I think they have requested the Canadian Supreme Court take it on.

Thank you @summeroakes.bsky.social and @sydbarrett99.bsky.social .
You have both just inspired me to try.

I have only cooked with pumpkin once. I didn't cut up a pumpkin so it must have come in can. 🥧
