Six months ago this morning, I was out with my kids, on the way to the park. I knew the collection of police vehicles along Wellington Cres signaled tragedy on a dangerous stretch of road, but my heart sank when I saw Rob Jenner’s mangled bike laying alongside a stretch we traveled regularly.

Rob Jenner’s bike lays mangled along Wellington Cres with police evidence numbers placed on and nearby. The rear wheel is bent horribly out of shape.

Are they telling him that Lincoln would face the arch? Are they planning to rotate it?

Cadence is pretty slow. One downstroke gets you pretty far with the assist, though.

Can you put into words what that purpose is? You and the frog have really become icons of this protest.

There’s been a nice overall whimsy that has shown up. The frog is amazing. We had a bunch of other inflatable people here last night, too. I saw people playing Twister the other day.

What they rely on is fear. So by coming out in an absurdist manner, it speaks to them, to some extent, that we’re actually not that afraid.

It also dismantles their narrative a little bit. When they try to describe this situation as “war-torn,” it becomes much harder to take them seriously when they have to post a video saying [U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security] Kristi Noem is up on the balcony staring over the Antifa Army and it’s, like, eight journalists and five protesters and one of them is in a chicken suit.

An inquest judge took it upon herself to secure legal representation for the family of a man who died in the Winnipeg Remand Centre when the province denied their funding request four days before hearings were to begin.

Do we think the bird is an adherent of a particular political faction? A partisan ptarmigan picardigan?

Watching the way the Trump administration is using criminalization as a weapon ought to make clear how criminalization works even in normal times.

ICE is not only chasing down every random brown person in Chicago, they have a cameraman following them to film this for social media. Cruelty and inhumanity as content.

Bummer! But that’s a great way to see a silver lining. Or maybe a set of silver rims…

Speed safety cameras are astonishingly successful. We know the tools that reduce traffic violence. Legalize them.
