Facts are awful things

"Air Ford One"

“For the people “ he bought a jet for himself. Schools, healthcare cut. People with disabilities below the poverty line for decades. Tone deaf graft.

Yep

The best trick they all use to set the same price on all packages of a meat with wildly different weights. Most are under weight for the price

The issue with fossil fuels beyond it’s killing the planet and us as well, is that it’s killing the economy too as it’s being supported instead of its long overdue replacement. This is a zero-sum game being played by governments across Canada and elsewhere

Corporations have found a creepy new way to rip you off. It's called "surveillance pricing" and it's coming for all of us at the checkout if we don't stop it.

Add your name and help stop retailers from price-gouging us with the help of Big Tech: ndp.ca/surveillance-pricing

I suggested to the executive director of a very large food bank that shall remain nameless to do a similar thing and was told that’s not what the board wants…as they preferred their ‘help the needy “ personal perspective over what would give their clients dignity instead

Large black pickup truck in a Costco parking space that the photographer could barely see over its hood.

Because we all need one of these to get groceries- I could barely see over the hood which the height of the roof of the small SUV beside it

Not only does it generate electricity it also keeps vehicles cooler in summer and less snow cover in winter

I couldn't breathe because I was laughing so hard. That bird's an asshole! 😂😂😂😂😂
Best with volume up.

The learned Prof. Dodek’s critique of tinpot premiers’ attacks on our judges (in today’s @TheGlobeandMail.com) is right on the mark.

Church Sends Easter Message of Resistance to Trump The American Catholic Church is using Easter morning to draw an unprecedented line in the world of politics, faith and individual responsibility.

Trump's war with the Catholic Church has taken a new turn. The head of the US military chaplains has called the war in Iran unjust and is calling on service people to refuse immoral and unjust orders.
This is unprecedented.
My latest.

These people (and many more) have nothing to do with the real thing. Saying you are something does not make it so.

Indeed. Each experience we get by doing does not always reveal its usefulness immediately. It can be years/decades later that some nugget of learning/understanding from seemingly innocuous experiences becomes important to our growth, judgment, or ability to solve a completely different problem.

They are the most disgusting and annoying ads on TV and the sports programs are the worst. For anyone with a proclivity to gamble it's a constant barrage of temptation and should be made illegal.

Maybe podcast lad needs to focus on the team and the game during the season….after all that is what they pay him for…and maybe parents need to have less to say about their kids work life. You know, like the rest of us do about ours

In mine I had to solve a statistics problem for a client by creating a 3-D model in Fortran on punched cards...and I survived. Being 21 at the time helped - where else would the energy come from? It was probably the time period when I started to figure out that coding was not I wanted to do!

Cartoon of someone cycling on a narrow pavement on which the council have generously painted a cycle lane logo. They're really spoiling us. The cyclist is not short of exciting obstacles to navigate, what fun: potholes, brambles, a car parked on the pavement, broken glass, and the pole of a sign that reads Please use the cycle path

Sorry to say I was way ahead as a comp. Sci tutor in 1976 who had students yelling login to a teletype computer terminal that kept printing ‘Please say login’ every 7 seconds…

Just completed our annual tax return saga…and we had already paid a lot and we still owed on top of that. And that was good…because our taxes fund society.

True about so much of our society and individually too I suppose.

And crossing guards - first one killed in Ottawa last week. It’s criminal negligence on the part of everyone in their caucus

Was at the game and he was playing out of his mind and the fans showed their appreciation. He should feel like the phenomenal performance he gave. And he seems like an even better human.

First they came for…or why is the leopard eating my face

It’s true

and no penalty...

And we do the exact opposite. city of Ottawa - the Henry Ford of transportation choices
