I am so fucking mad. Sorry Mom. But I am. Where are these people coming from that they think politics is picking on vulnerable people rather than picking people up. Find another job. And everyone else who is appalled, speak up. Because otherwise this is what you get.

My father-in-law, a lifelong suburban car owner with no real interest in cycling, became pro-bike lane when his daughter-in-law started cycling to work every day. He shifted on a dime. He cared deeply about making sure she’d be safe out there (that’s me btw).
What happened to empathy in this Province? I’m amazed at the total lack of regard for the safety of others. We are not a mean city, but the Province shows no sense of community, respect, or shared responsibility.
It’s as if compassion has been lost in the race to prioritize convenience over people.
It seems to me as though these Provincial conservatives advocating for ripping up critical infrastructure were raised poorly.
You can’t build a thriving society on this level of selfishness.

OK I'm pro bike lane (on the record, I'm a suburban car owner who hates biking & haven't been on a bike since age 12). However:
-Everyone has a right to ride a bike
-Bikes on sidewalks are dangerous to pedestrians & in downtown Toronto, sidewalks are often too crowded

I wonder if Bezos realizes how much damage he's done to the Post due to a completely unnecessary capitulation to Trump.
NEWS: More than 200,000 subscribers have canceled their digital subscriptions to the Washington Post after the revelation that owner Jeff Bezos blocked an endorsement of VP Harris.
That's about 8 percent of WaPo's subscriber base - a staggering sum

200K subscribers amounts to ~8% of @washingtonpost's base. Staggering.
Reminder: Cancelling is Step 1. Step 2 is investing those funds in media & writers who aren't afraid to speak truth to power.

One of the biggest functions of blocking is giving women the ability to stop weird men from constantly making them uncomfortable and scared. So of course Elon had to change that.

You'll see very very few journalists in the Western press take note of this, let alone condemn it. Because on a fundamental level they don't object to the murder of fellow journalists if those journalists report news that the West doesn't want heard.
Listen, If you continue spreading lies about Israel, we'll come for you next and turn your family into [...] This is your last warning".. Journalist Hassan Hamad received this message on WhatsApp, along with several calls from an Israeli officer ordering him to stop filming in Gaza. He didn't comply. He was killed today.

Enough is enough!! Good luck Carla.
We can’t afford is four more years of corruption and waste from Scott Moe and the Sask. Party. This election, the people of Saskatchewan are counting on us to change things. And I know we can do it. #skpoli

“While Mayor, I was often asked ‘how have you been able to afford this in #Copenhagen?’ I’d reply, ‘how have you been able to NOT afford it? 25 years ago we were a few days away from going bankrupt. So the city invested in the cheapest infrastructure… bicycling.” — @mortenkabell

Tucker Carlson had a full fledged Nazi on who denied the Holocaust and defended Hitler and Elon loved it, because he and Tucker are also both Nazis

Whenever Conservatives rage about Trudeau being a dictator, remember that their accusations are always confessions.

Who would have guessed that would be the case? Certainly not the Scott Moe govt in Sask that made horribly callous decisions during the height of covid. #skpoli
