I want to live in a world with less trauma and more love.
Doubling the electric grid is a plan for a high carbon future.

Building the grid requires materials and energy. Generating electricity likely means dams or burning fuel.

Then all the vehicles to use that power require materials, batteries and highways.

Do bikes and public transit instead.
This is simply incorrect for numerous reasons: 1) Carney is increasing with oil and resource extraction, and proceeding with pipelines, 2) electric cars are not a climate change solution, 3) Canada is still buying warplanes from the US, not diversifying.

He's buying pipelines
He's running the tar sands
He supports fracking: Dirty, expensive, polluting even by fossil fuel extraction standards
He's involved in regime change in South & Cent America (& all continents) because Western interests want all those resources

& this is Canada's historical role

It's worth thinking about how if the truck convoy happened all over again, police, and the federal and provincial governments would do nothing to stop it.

We must update our understanding of the function of these institutions to account for the way they behaved, and would behave again.
I was there when the word came out to move the table across the road and block it, trapping the Convoy. We let numerous non-convoy vehicles through. Threats were made against us that the other parts of the convoy was going to come and deal with us. Police, provincial gov’t, federal too, did nothing.

Police should be removed from the role of traffic safety, and an unarmed civilian agency should be created to enforce traffic rules, and investigate traffic crashes, and update policy to make roads safer.

Police don't want to do it anyway, and speeding tickets can be written without a gun.

A capitalist society considers it a success when a small group of people collect more money, even when many people are harmed in the process.

I spent yesterday combing through the social media history of Jesse Van Rootselaar, the 18-year-old responsible for a mass shooting at a B.C. school.

It doesn't explain why the shooting occurred. But it hints at how it might have been prevented.

This is something the Nazis used to do to Jewish children in the camps. It happened to a man I knew when he was a child in Auschwitz. The camp guards thought it was funny as hell.
On Thanksgiving, the immigrant children held at the Dilley detention center gathered in the gym for what they thought was a holiday feast.

The kids salivated over a spread of turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, a family told me.

But the food wasn’t for detainees — it was for the staff.

"In the richest country in the world, we spend billions on detention camps while people freeze to death on our streets"

The poorest country might have people dying on the streets, but the richest country *must* have people dying on the streets.

Valuing wealth more than life leads to this.

A huge Norm Nation update! Yesterday, so many reached out to help a family in hiding escape eviction. Today, I paid $3,700 for 3 months’ rent (2 months of back rent since they can’t leave the house and also March’s rent, because it’s already mid-February). Thank you so much! You are saving lives.

Oh my fucking god. Do not make revenge porn. Do not commit any kind of sex crime. Even if the victim is a horrible fucking monster. This shouldn't need to be said. Do not be a sex criminal no matter how much you hate the woman in question.

Jesus wept.

These concentration camps are a perfect storm for contagious disease.
“On Jan. 18, the 18-month-old, who was suffering from life-threateningly low oxygen levels, was rushed to a San Antonio children’s hospital, where she was diagnosed with and treated for pneumonia, COVID-19, viral bronchitis, respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and severe respiratory distress.”
“Upon arrival at the center — which is the same where 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos was held with his father, Adrian Conejo Arias — Amalia's health worsened quickly, the lawsuit said, and on Jan. 1, she developed a fever that peaked at 104 degrees and would not break.”
