My god this city is full of disgustingly selfish people who have the time & energy (in other words, the money) to indulge in their hobbies
It's currently 11:30 PM on a Thursday night and there are people in Vancouver City Hall trying to NIMBY a highschool that's like 15 years overdue

There’s something deeply sociopathic about making citizens beg for basic services in the middle of the night
I just spoke in favour of the school...at almost 12:30 am.
Seriously: wtf are we doing as a city? How did our planning system become so dysfunctional that this is what it takes to approve a public elementary school?
This is the sort of thing that should cause some real soul-searching at city hall.

Forcing them to live a lie until they turn 18 and then undergo an extremely stigmatizing transition once they have less parental support is pointless and cruel. Doing it on the false hope that they might not be trans is a sign of how deep the hatred of transness is.

I know cis people don't realize the cruelty, so with gentleness and empathy for them, let me try to explain.
Being trans is difficult. Instinctively, you already know this because you think it would be better not to be trans.

I would ask people to call or message their senators about this and specifically that Vinay Prasad needs to be out at FDA. Even the Wall Street Journal has said as much. There is push back. Companies won’t fund clinical trials if they can’t trust the FDA.
If Moderna is no longer bringing vaccine trials for Epstein-Barr virus (good evidence that EB causes Multiple Sclerosis), herpes, and shingles because of Trump appointees, I want prison time for those appointees.
This might be dooming millions to disease they don’t have to experience.

NEW: Vancouver progressive party @onecityvan.bsky.social has chosen their mayoral candidate for this year’s municipal election. William Azaroff @wazaroff.bsky.social has been an impressive leader in non-profit housing, and seems to have good city-building instincts. I look forward to his platform.
Very important proposal for bus signal priority in Vancouver by Mayoral hopeful @wazaroff.bsky.social running for @onecityvan.bsky.social. Transportation equity means prioritizing transit that’s moving a LOT more people in a lot less space. That’s ironically better for EVERYONE, including drivers.
William Azaroff, who is seeking OneCity's nomination to run for Vancouver mayor, is proposing city-wide coordinated traffic signals that could cost up to $200 million. 🚦
It'd also enable extensive signal priority for #TransLink buses. #vanre #vanpoli

Today I pressed the gov’t on the huge mental health gaps in small towns and rural Canada. Families travel hours or go without care. Bill C-201 would cover mental health under the Canada Health Act for just 1.5% of spending. Mental health is health. The time for action is now.

I have been asked a few times if it is good that mainstream media largely held off on identifying the shooter until after RCMP confirmed, even if some places were spreading it.
This sort of thing is why. As a a journalist, when you get this stuff wrong, you potentially are ruining people's lives.

Radio-Canada apologizes after it aired a photo circulated by anti-trans hate groups online, falsely claiming it was a photo of the Tumbler Ridge shooter. Damaging and irresponsible, and this apology raises more questions about journalistic process imho.

I understand why people are exhausted by AI hype, and why those of us squarely in the corner of "human dignity uber alles" see AI doomerism as self-serving hype, but I *really* think people on the left broadly need to start thinking seriously about the possibiltiy of the hype being...true.

The framing of transgender existence as ideology is unscientific and bigoted.
Just because it is widely used by the GOP and broader political right does not mean media and pollsters need to use the bigoted framing to be neutral.
They shouldn’t. They should only ever note the scientific consensus.

Polling on trans issues is difficult to interpret. It becomes even more difficult when pollsters use politically charged terms like 'transgender ideology.'
