Her crime? "in 2020 she ruled to authorise an investigation into possible atrocities in Afghanistan, including by US troops" as a judge at the International Criminal Court
It is to Canada's shame we have not spoken out or supported a Canadian judge being sanctioned by the US
Her life is frozen. She cannot use credit cards, travel, move money, or access email. This is not sustainable

It's true. New York's very existence proves the ethnofascists wrong.
So does Atlanta. And every American city. If America will become, this will be how, by building community whether it makes sense to them or not
By loving our neighbor even if they try to make it illegal
By living well together

Proven solutions:
-Narrow roadways
-Short crossing distances
-Protected infrastructure
-Auto-enforcement cameras
-Pedestrian islands
-Curb bumpouts
-4to3 conversions
-Bollards
-Boulevard 🌳🌳🌳
-Speed limiters on 🚗 🚙 🛻

Pedestrians are getting struck by automobiles 3x a week in Saint Paul. It is showcase of how the city needs to place greater focus on spending available funds on its bike/pedestrian infrastructure.
The plans exist. The funds exist. The desire exists.

there used to be a place like this in the downtown eastside. the funding was cut and it closed. dignity isn’t a line item on a budget; it’s beyond any price
For an entire community of my down-and-out neighbors, this hygiene center is the only place to take a shower, wash clothes, repair a bike, or get a sweater, blanket, or hot meal…while also enjoying a little bit of community.

Toronto council votes to build more than 20 km of new bike lanes
Toronto city council has given the greenlight to install more than 20 kilometres of new bike lanes in a proposal that manages to get around the provincial government’s attempts to clamp down on them.

New research finds that car touchscreens are so distracting that they induce "significant performance degradation" among drivers.
Meanwhile, in-vehicle touchscreens remain completely unregulated in the US.
