Some dude that bikes for groceries most days
At this point I’m not sure that ladders even come with rungs anymore

I hear what you’re saying but have you considered the classic: “we do things differently here?”

Absolutely nobody on either side of the spectrum is really talking like a grownup with public finances and it boggles my mind. Sometimes I sound like a raging “fiscal conservative” when I get talking about unfunded liabilities to the municipal crowd.

100%. My last winter work trip to Minnesota got lots of blank stares when I asked about winter tires (and slid all over the place in my rental car).

There’s no waiting list at the new Beer Cave™ at my local convenience store though, Ford knows how to get things done😭

this reminds me I gotta adjust my saddle suspension on the bike, ugh the suffering

I’m a big Apple guy but I like to play PC games.

Before the Steam Deck proved it could be done, I would have insisted Linux gaming was impossible.

The future looks bright for remaining Windows-free!

City councillors seem to endlessly be on international trips to learn and shake hands - why do planners never consider that other parts of the world exist and have solved this stuff already?

The victorians were quite big on peace, order, good governmemt, and festive cheer.

Doesn’t look like the ridership is there to support it, sorry 🥲

He hasn’t seen it yet*, he’ll get back to us once he’s caught up with the news

I know I’m preaching to the choir - but what is the region going to do about generating revenue (infill!) instead of just focusing on costs?

They don’t need transparency, that’s for sure.

Tell me again why OAS is such a sacred cow 😵

You can just shorten it to “sociopathy”

I think that's where he learned such inspirational Urban Planning ideas such as this:

To make it worse, this councillor went to school for urban planning. We are led by misanthropes.

And yet nobody but activists online know this fact - and the real world peanut gallery gets to keep complaining about taxes 24/7 without knowing this basic fact.

I read “pack lawyers” and thought well this is a bit self-serving for a Saturday morning

Yet again, people around the world have to wonder if tonight’s the night they die violently or lose all their money based on domestic American politics.

What a way to make friends in the world.

I don’t think we are a grown-up province and won’t be able to have a conversation about who pays for the costs of putting others in danger for their own benefit.

I’m getting deeply cynical on all of it.

The in-laws live in an exurb around a very wealthy college town in the US - their ambulance service are all volunteers. It’s madness.
