My favorite tyrant joke: a man comes every day and peers at the front page of the newspaper without buying it.
The newspaper vendor says, "what are you looking for?"
"An obituary."
"Obituaries aren't on the front page."
"This one will be."

So just to be clear, all taxpayers will pay for traffic calming instead of fining the people that speed and leaving everyone else alone. We like this for a policy change? Are we so afraid of going after the actual rule breakers that we would rather put it on the back of everybody?

At today's Council meeting, I brought a motion forward to reverse the City Manager's five-day-a-week return-to-office order. We'll debate that in two weeks. I've heard from many City staff about the diminishment in the quality of both life and work the order will create, with too little benefit.

Sex toys are being hurled on the court at WNBA games. A cryptocurrency group says they're behind it – and planning for more.
The group says the acts are "pranks" intended to draw attention to their crypto meme coin and not meant to disrespect women athletes.

It's election day in Canada, and I know some people are pretty apathetic about voting.
But today is a rare opportunity to make Pierre Poilievre—who is, by all reports, a giant asshole on every single level—profoundly unhappy.
