“Unlike the car, the e-cargo bike afforded a unique sensitivity to the natural world and local environment [that] enabled parents to train their children in local geography and responsible mobility.”

I think a lot about this from P.J. O’Rourke:

“The Republicans are the party that says government doesn't work and then they get elected and prove it.”

Trillium Health came to my door asking for donations to build a new public hospital in Waterloo.

I told them: I respect your work-but no. I already pay taxes. Doug Ford is hoarding billions and
starving public healthcare.

Ask him where the money went. #ONpoli

28C in my classroom today. Lots of cranky kids.

Netanyahu has spent the better part of two decades trying to strong arm the United States into an unprovoked war against Iran and finally found a president stupid enough to do it for him. Unbelievable.

This is a sensible explanation of what went down at the G7 today - and why tRumpy is beating a hasty retreat.

Living in Ontario is getting worse by the day.
Doug Ford is as bad as Trump, in a smaller playground.
So many bad bills it is hard to keep up.

Trump Melts Down at ‘Why Do You Always Chicken Out’ Question The president also lashed out at the reporter who asked about Wall Street’s new nickname for his trade war.

Trump had an Oval Office meltdown over Wall Street’s new acronym for his tariffs: TACO Trade, which stands for “Trump Always Chickens Out.”

Bill 5: Ontario’s development and mining law, explained | The Narwhal Public commenting on Bill 5 closes in a few days. Here’s everything you need to know about Ontario’s omnibus development bill

Today is the last day for Ontarians to comment on Bill 5, which would wipe out the the Endangered Species Act and give cabinet the power to create “special economic zones” where development can be pushed through without regard for provincial or municipal rules. #onpoli

This is my favorite post today and it isn’t even close

This research article investigates the cardiovascular effects of Long COVID, specifically how SARS-CoV-2 impacts heart cells (cardiomyocytes) at the mitochondrial level. Here are the key findings: - **Mitochondrial Damage:** Analysis of heart tissue from five Long COVID patients revealed widespread mitochondrial abnormalities and degradation of muscle fibers (myofilaments) in heart cells. - **Animal Studies:** Similar mitochondrial damage was observed in SARS-CoV-2-infected mice, suggesting a common mechanism. - **Proteomic Changes:** The study identified significant changes in proteins related to mitochondrial function in infected mouse heart tissue. - **Severe Cardiac Outcomes:** The five patients experienced conditions such as myocarditis, myocardial infarction, coronary artery disease, and sudden cardiac death during exercise. - **Long-Term Health Risks:** The study emphasizes the need for ongoing cardiovascular monitoring for individuals recovering from COVID-19 due to potential lasting effects on heart health. Overall, the findings suggest that SARS-CoV-2 directly harms mitochondria in heart cells, potentially explaining the cardiovascular complications seen in Long COVID patients. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2090123225003066

A thousand yeses to this from Cole Arthur Riley.

The guy who stole money from his own party to pay for his kid’s private education and lied about his qualifications dares to speak in public? Don’t have to dig deep in the con trough before you find stupid corruption.

Best post today?

Jason Kenney is back on social media, and boy, does he sound cranky! Like a political Rip Van Winkle, Jason Kenney returns to Twitter to attack MAGA and finds himself on X.

Jason Kenney re-emerges - a “cranky political Rip Van Wrinkle” 🤣

Now on Postmedia Board of Directors. These Harper “has beens” get around.

A pro-Poilievre misinformation campaign from the U.S. has been uncovered.

The Financial Times is reporting that thousands of fake accounts from the U.S. are boosting Poilievre and attacking Carney.

#Canadians are being bombarded on X, Facebook, and TikTok with U.S. misinformation.

I voted yesterday. About a 5 minute wait in line. Everyone was friendly and it went smoothly. I think the ballot box was pretty full when I stuffed my ballot in.
