Yup, gotta laugh when it’s funny.

I consider it a good day if I get to hear multiple languages being spoken. Maybe she wants her authentic Mexican, Thai, Lebanese, Italian and Chinese food as long as she doesn’t have to hear any foreign sounds… 😂

Our time is short @SaraGonzalesTX . Mass deportations will correct this, worst of the worst won’t. If Plano, Texas, of all places, has this problem, then you can see how there are 100 million illegal aliens in our country. Commence mass deportations . @nicksortor original post: At a park in Plano, TX with my 5-year-old. We are surrounded by foreigners, speaking multiple foreign languages, making it more difficult for my son to make friends. This is my hometown. It’s unrecognizable. I want my country back.

trump's former "commander-at-large" of the border patrol greg bovino says mass deportations, not deporting "worst of the worst" will "correct" places like Plano, Texas having a diverse population

The surprising origin of 4 features that superglue kids — and adults — to screens Taken together, these four features can create a trancelike state that can keep us stuck on social media apps or video games for hours. Children are particularly vulnerable.

It is just wrong to leave half caulked.

Doug Ford wondering how many times he can get medivac-ed from Muskoka to Billy Bishop and back before taxpayers notice.

The hidden power keeping wages low For decades, economists gave short shrift to the idea of monopsony — a power employers can have to suppress wages. Now a wave of research suggests it's everywhere, and a new book argues it's key to understanding today's inequality.

Power without accountability: The Palantir manifesto The problems with our tech philosopher kings

New, from me: Take the Palantir manifesto seriously, if not literally.
It reveals that our tech philosopher kings want public money, but without public accountability. This creates a dilemma for governments unaligned with its techno-fascist vision. 🧵

I once had a rental company in US come after me almost a year after rental claiming I dented the bumper. It was one of these ‘fast check out’ places that didn’t do a walk-around. Luckily I did, and took a video with my phone and they accepted that evidence.

Where are all the three and four bedroom units right?

some things about becoming a parent are radicalizing in ways I expected - e.g being reminded viscerally how screwed we'd all be if childcare and other care work disappeared. but other things are radicalizing in ways I didn't - like experiencing constant spontaneous solidarity in ways big and small

this is just a warmed over david duke speech from 1990

Extremely normal and fine for a company to put this in a public statement

Carbon tax stickers that don't stick. License plates you can't see. Beeping Covid bracelets that don't exist. Wind turbines torn down and then built again. An Ontario Science Centre roof that refuses to collapse.

Are we even sure Doug's new private jet has wings?

The head of the FBI isn't supposed to be getting blackout drunk. He's supposed to be cross-dressing

Friday night Tequila Tweet: Here’s the sad, fucking truth: Iran’s leadership is more believable & more trustworthy than the President of the United States. Hey America, that’s the price we pay for electing a president who lies as he breathes. We. Can’t. Believe. A. Fucking. Thing. Trump. Says.

What are the odds that the Trump administration is side-dealing with non-governmental parties in Iran hoping for regime change… and when he says these things he’s confusing which group agreed to what? Not the first time this has happened.

Right? We now get to see the companies that didn’t really believe in support for LGBTQ and were just trying to benefit from the positive LGBTQ glow they saw other companies get.

After intense lobbying, Trump signed executive orders to fast-track data center construction and weaken state-level AI regulations.

AI firms are also pumping huge sums into our elections.

Citizens (not so) United.

They are 1 week away from declaring "Martin Luther was the one true Catholic."

You are right. I think I misunderstood the line from province that reads: “The program provides municipalities with two cents per litre of provincial gas tax revenues.”

‘Even more’ implies that as is Ottawa gets more gas tax than of exurbanites didn’t commute for work. Partial use supports partial compensation.

It also depends on gas purchase location no? So if exurban commuters buy gas in city, that increases amount the city gets from gas tax no?

Wouldn’t the fact they are largely contingent on recipient jurisdiction having a transit system actually favour Ottawa (large municipalities) getting more of the money than a small town like Carleton Place? So this would offset some of the imbalance you were indicating?

1. Aren’t roads paid for partly through provincial gas tax, that is supposed to offset this bias?

2. It’s sort of ridiculous to suggest that Carleton Place commuters are ‘consuming’ non-trivial amounts of Ottawa police services.

as far as i can tell pope leo has never mentioned trump by name hes just like “killing people is wrong” or “concentration camps arent good” and theyre all taking it personally

Keep in mind that Trump’s superpower is not economic or strategic or even business intelligence. His superpower is getting other people to hold the bag and cover the losses when he makes bad decisions.
