I am honoured to announce I’ve been appointed as a member to the Order of Canada. Thank you to everyone for the support! I dedicate this to my late Mom who taught me so much about history, local independent media & research. I know that she would be, like me, screaming with joy! #orderofcanada

There are few cities that are more car-centric than Dallas TX, yet even Dallas puts bike racks on their trains. How often do you think people complain about the “War on Cars” here? #topoli

DOGE cut the program monitoring screwworm. I think that was the OP’s point. “And when the Trump administration killed 5,300 grants and programs from the U.S. Agency of International Development, it terminated a screwworm monitoring project.”

First the ultrawealthy got mad that the plebes were not so bad off, so they fixed it. Now they're mad that we won't stop talking about it, so they're fixing that too.
I love adding this one data point to economic charts. It works every time.

I really hope this leads to a massive reckoning and fixing of the system of government there. Partly because I’m looking forward to the Guy Fawkes type holiday where everyone dresses up in animal costumes.
one response to this (correct) observation is to say “well, the cops will attack you no matter how you dress and behave.” that’s right. images of cops and ICE beating grandmas and kids in inflatable frog costumes is a win for the opposition.
one of the reasons they're so mad at "no kings" is that they thought they were going to get a different kind of protest. they *want* the black bloc to be out there fighting with the cops. those are the images they've been trying to generate from "go." instead--
