This is not the man I voted for. This is a man who does not understand the Climate Crisis. LIBERALS! Do NOT “ toe the party line” on expanding fossil fuels. Say no. Vote no. Or consider the NDPs. @coopr84canada.bsky.social @fairvote.ca @liberalparty.bsky.social @ndp.ca

Silicon Valley's Push Into Transportation Has Been a Miserable Failure The titans of tech brought plenty of disruption to our broken transportation system but delivered little in the way of innovation.

“Elon Musk admitted to his biographer that the reason the Hyperloop was announced—even though he had no intention of pursuing it—was to try to disrupt the California high-speed rail project to get in the way of that actually succeeding.” — @parismarx.com in @gizmodo.com. #UrbanTruth

We think not having a home indicates that someone doesn't deserve one. It's deeply irrational. We have a prejudice against the homeless, and the poor in general. It's as deep as any other bigotry.

Refusing to build supportive housing for those who would otherwise be homeless means more unhoused people living on our streets and in our parks, AND much higher public costs paid by all of us. It’s as simple as that. #UrbanTruth

I was at the library yesterday and asked if they had a limit on how many books you could have on hold and she gave me a wary look and said... no...🤣

She added that one time they had a patron who had his own dedicated shelf. #goals

DND says no, but questions linger | CBC News A retired Canadian major-general says it's highly likely personnel on exchange with U.S. Central Command were likely involved at some level in planning and targeting airstrikes on Iran unless Ottawa e...

This is an illegal war breaching international law.

Carney Allowed Gas-powered AI Data Centres After Lobbying From Alberta Energy Company The Alberta gas giant Capital Power lobbied the government 37 times in the lead-up to an accord suspending clean energy regulations, federal records show.

“The Alberta electricity company Capital Power, which is developing a large new AI data centre in the province powered by natural gas, lobbied the federal Mark Carney government dozens of times last year to eliminate clean energy regulations.”

“These regulations were subsequently dropped.”

It's Official: the Cybertruck is More Explosive than the Ford Pinto - FuelArc News We now have a full year of data for the Cybertruck, and a strange preponderance of headlines about Cybertrucks exploding into flames, including several fatalities. That’s more than enough data to comp...

Analysis of crash data shows that you're 17 times more likely to die in a vehicle fire if you buy Elon Musk's Tesla Cyber truck than if you had bought a Ford Pinto, the 1970s era car infamous for gas tank explosions in rear end collisions.

Such deep prejudices and fears. You need lawyers to take this to court if the governor won’t act quickly.

A friend has written her governor asking what he can do to punish Kansas for this action (cancel contracts etc) and make safe passage for trans people to her state.

We have to get creative in the face of the horrors. Please do what you can.

ICE took their papers—and won’t give them back Immigrants are being released from detention without documents proving their status.

After Isabel was released from a Minnesota detention center, ICE didn't return her work permit, ID, checks worth $700, or her daughter’s US passport.

She's one of many now missing key immigration and identity documents.
