Do you feel safer yet?
I don’t think many people realize that the VPD are launching drone flights over the every day, sometimes multiple times per day
They say they only record 5% of video streamed to HQ from those flights but civil libertarians want more disclosure
Thoughts?

Ken Sim & ABC Vancouver are a party of Cops, by Cops, for Cops.
ABC’s backroom-selected byelection candidates show the Mayor’s desperation as his governing coalition falls apart.
On April 5th, we're going to elect Sean Orr.
In 2026, we're going to evict Ken Sim from City Hall.

This byelection just became magnitudes more important
Ken Sim only cares about himself and his billionaire backers like Chip Wilson.
He doesn't care about solving this city's problems. He bullies colleagues who don't fall completely in line.
In 2026 we're going to evict Ken Sim and whatever's left of ABC from office. #vanpoli

Weeks before the by-election, ABC makes this announcement: Councillor Rebecca Bligh Asked to Leave ABC Vancouver Caucus
"While she remains a Vancouver City Councillor, it has become clear that she is not aligned with the shared priorities and team-oriented approach that defines ABC Vancouver."

Let's do this in Vancouver. Tax Amazon to pay for non-market housing.
Social housing funding appears poised to pass by a wide margin in Seattle. The Prop 1A version to enact an excise tax on employers with highly compensated employees is leading with 58% of the vote.

The real experiment here is “what if you give us a trillion dollars”
Google physicists claim that a new quantum computing chip named ‘Willow’ may prove the existence of parallel universes:
“It lends credence to the notion that quantum computation occurs in many parallel universes, in line with the idea that we live in a multiverse.”

The goal for those in solidarity isn't to "leave Syria alone, put the borders back were they were last week".
The goal is for the Levant region to be rid of imperialism and to be decolonized. Truly allowed to settler their own borders and self-define.

When discussing Syria (and the Levant region generally), it is important for westerners to understand that NONE of the borders of today are truly legitimate. That the British and other western imperialists installed their own kings, drew their own borders, and sponsored their own colonists.
