In response to David Eby lowering the province-wide gas tax by 10¢, TransLink should, in response, raise their separate fuel levy by 10¢ to make up the difference 😌 Purely by coincidence, the TL board is meeting right now.

There are two merciless gods of war, the elder (logistics) & the younger (ballistics). Both are math first & everything else second. There is a reason military academies are engineering schools at heart

So much respect for this, and the framing. ABC, the right wing version of Progress Toronto, has used health care workers/hospitals as reason to rip them out. This puts a lie to that (and on University ambulances can bypass cars in the wide bikelanes if needed). So many lies.

The police and their proxies playing games with crime statistics is something that has always really bothered me. And it ultimately undermines them as well.

What the public didn’t know was that the frequency of stranger assaults had already plummeted by more than half—from 4.2 per day to 1.8 per day—in the first half of 2022, months before voters went to the polls. www.reddit.com/r/vancouver/...

BREAKING: A BC Supreme Court judge has sided with Jeremy Kalicum and Eris Nyx, who operated an illicit-drug compassion club (Drug User Liberation Front), were convicted of trafficking, and challenged the constitutionality of Canada's drug laws. Trafficking section ruled invalid, convictions stayed.

Megan McArdle's WaPo column celebrating the end of the woke left's ability to "cancel" right-wing voices over their social media posts, while making no mention of @karenattiah.bsky.social's legally enforced reinstatement to the WaPo after being fired for her social media posts, is chef's kiss.

I should be legally allowed to mow these motherfuckers down with my vehicle. They went out of their way to march on the reservation in our city of #Kamloops and should have been arrested on the spot. Faces covered because they know what they're doing deserves an ass beating or a job loss.

Reddit post about the second sons, a white supremacy group trying to increase their visibility in Kamloops, BC, Canada who were seen in the reserve and then downtown.

Breaking News: Major TV networks — ABC, CBS, Fox News and NBC — agreed to suspend their pooled coverage of President Trump after the White House blocked CNN from its duties.

Networks Suspend Pool Coverage of Trump After White House Bans CNN

The move was an escalation of President Trump’s showdown with the White House press corps after he moved to bar journalists from CNN, MS NOW and Politico.

Assange was never a leaker or whistleblower. He was a middleman who intercepted and brokered other people’s leaks, delaying them and horse-trading them for his organization’s profit and, in the case of damaging Russian leaks, preventing their publication. And colluding to bring monsters to power

It's worth repeating: The America we once knew is *never* coming back. What comes next is anyone's guess. It could be a long, slow, sad slide to true authoritarianism. Or a quick one. Or America breaking into into constituent nations (hi, Yugoslavia!) But...it could also lead to something better.

A new Vancouver mayoral poll by local pollster Justason is out. FRY 45% SIM 30% HARDWICK 11% ALLAM 10% BLIGH 5% Sample size of 509 and was online only, but obviously supports the notion that the left has consolidated support behind Fry quickly.

Okay so @defector.com has had an odd glitch since the site redesign a couple of weeks back where the wrong photo and headline are often put together on the main page and I was going to ask them about fixing it but this just happened and as far as I'm concerned they have to leave it as is.

Screenshot for a Defector podcast episode with the headline "Consider the Emotional Lives of Scallops" only the accompanying photo is a white gormless stubbled red-headed UK singer of recent notoriety giving a flat smile to the camera while wearing a washed out peach top as beige as he is against a flat background. So, actually, probably a scallop anyway.

Chart showing remain/commence vote Alberta-wide at 64/24

I did a somewhat deep dive into the recent OpenAI and Anthropic "hacks" for an upcoming interview. IMO, the AI companies are better off running with the "rogue AI" story because the real story is actually pretty embarrassing. Like making your Wi-Fi password "wifi" embarrassing. 🧵
