I wish Halifax admin could understand how dangerous leaves in the bike lanes are. I narrowly avoided a bad crash on Bell road. The lanes are barely as wide as my handlebars, and over half full of wet leaves.
Weekly street cleaning had the roads clear though

Once you start thinking of AI as a war on humanity, on human thought, on human inquiry, on human labor, on nuance and critical thinking, it slots in pretty seamlessly with the right wing ideological project, oligarchical political projects, big tech's political projects, etc

I did some functional #3dprinting today. A bracket on my son's Nerf gun broke. After an hour and a half of modeling and printing, it seems to fit just right

Nov. 4 is the first year anniversary of this Halifax regional council meeting.
I have been trying since December to get an interview with Mayor Andy Fillmore. Three tries with no luck. But I wrote about reporting on Fillmore and some of his motions:

A little late getting this up, but I had a great Halloween this year. I put together a costume for the first time since childhood. @criticalmasshfx.bsky.social was an amazing time, and I can't wait for the next one.
