Stop apologizing... and do something about it. There should be Americans protesting outside every official's house. Mar-a-Lago should be unable to operate because the supply trucks can't deliver through the crowds... Trump shouldn't be able to sleep at night for the noise outside his windows..

Ford tearing out Toronto bike lanes is pure math: sacrificing urban ridings he doesn't need to win suburban voters. Proportional representation ends this cynical game. When every vote counts everywhere, Conservatives must appeal to cities and Liberals to rural ridings.

An graphic created by Fair Vote Canada titled "Doug Ford's Targeted Decisions: Hit safe opposition seats". The top half displays a map of Toronto electoral ridings colored blue for Progressive Conservative, red for Liberal, and orange for NDP. Black indicators map out targeted locations concentrated entirely in orange and red opposition-held ridings: the Bloor St, Yonge St, and University Ave bike lanes, Ontario Place, and Billy Bishop Airport. The bottom half outlines these three areas in detail alongside icons for a bike, airplane, and building. Text clarifies that targeted bike lanes on Bloor, University, and Yonge, the expansion of Billy Bishop Airport, and the redevelopment of Ontario Place are all situated in opposition ridings. A prominent red banner across the bottom reads: "SAFE OPPOSITION SEATS DON'T HELP HIS MAJORITY. So he can sacrifice them to win over suburban swing ridings."

5/ There no basis to assess that Russian forces will be able to take the rest of Donetsk Oblast in any short period of time, as Russian President Vladimir Putin continues to claim, or even to forecast that Russian forces will ever be able to complete their seizure of this region by force.

BC Liberals/United: Refuses proportional representation after 57.7% support in '05, campaigns against it in '18. Collapses. CAQ: Reneges on PR promise. Loses every seat. The lesson on short-term cynicism is clear: implement PR when you can, or get consumed by the status quo.

I've heard people make claims that AI would lead to a new Renaissance, but I didn't imagine it'd happen like this:

Screenshot of a Tweet from Pope Leo XIV. It reads:

"In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgen to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity."
