Doug Ford’s cuts are breaking apart an already fractured legal system. Court delays, cuts to legal aid…
This is more than personal: it’s a systemic failure that’s happening province wide.

Homelessness is a policy choice.
I cannot stress enough that homelessness is caused by policy levers primarily at the provincial level.
And AMO's new report shows it: homelessness in Ontario rose 8% last year, with 85,000 people becoming homeless. 20,000 were youth and children.
Horrifying.

The Canadian Taxpayer Federation getting upset about a $2000 plaque that wasn't taxpayer-funded rather than the austerity that led to a dead raccoon lying on the sidewalk for days without pickup is so indicative of their whole deal.
The city thought Conrad the raccoon deserved a memorial plaque. Now Toronto’s best-known trash panda has become a different kind of symbol
A plaque commemorating one of Toronto’s most famous trash pandas has been singled out as an example of government waste, more than 10 years after its death.

Hello Tim Cook I worked at Tumblr when you gave us 48 hours to get rid of all the consenting, adult boobs. Up all night at your whim, out of the blue. But you're still cool with Twitter and its CSAM and revenge porn and whatever the fuck this is? Why do you even HAVE guidelines?
Previously, several of these companies, like Apple, IBM, and Disney, have paused advertising on X in response to antisemitic content. But antisemitism on X never slowed, sexual abuse imagery increased, and all of these companies quietly resumed advertising anyways.

Canadians mad about ICE:
Know that we are complicit and we are vulnerable.
Canada is one of Palantir’s biggest funders, our pensions are tied to Palantir’s business. Which includes supporting ICE, profiting off genocide in Gaza, and human rights violations.

When a company names itself after a mythical foreboding object — take it as a warning
Peter Thiel’s Palantir borrowed its name from The Lord of the Rings, and two decades later, it’s living up to the metaphor by quietly embedding itself in the machinery of government

Grok is not a source! Grok is not sentient! Grok is a machine woven into the fabric of a social network that made CSAM on-demand!

![How would you describe Mamdani's politics?
He's not a communist. People call him that. That's ridiculous. He is a democratic socialist. David Dinkins [New York mayor from 1990-93] was a democratic socialist. We've had a long history in New York City of socialism.
What's the biggest challenge Mamdani faces as mayor!
I don't think the Zohranistas totally understand the fiscal irresponsibility we just went through with the Adams years and how little money there's left.
There's not enough money to do all the things that Zohran wants to do.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ssxnmhdtz6le6nxu7jfhglz6/bafkreic7pxra6vmrjmqo4jmw4vdagiluj6xtkovqb3f4ex7fc55m7pzaxu@jpeg)
