Blatant Censorship. Just three hours before broadcast, CBS News abruptly pulled a highly anticipated 60 Minutes investigative segment that had been publicly promoted.

Great work by @onschoolsafety.bsky.social advocating for something simple but essential: better air quality for kids and teachers.

Commuting by bicycle in Belgium pays off as employees earn compensation for every km they ride. 1 in 6 employees commute by bike and get a bicycle allowance of €0.28/km. People cycling to work in 2024 earned an average of around €460 net per year (some as high as €810), up 20% over the past year.
Belgian commutes pay off: Employees earn up to €810 for cycling to work
One in five people in Flanders commuted by bike and received compensation last year, but this figure is significantly lower in Brussels and Wallonia.

“Air pollution fell substantially as Paris restricted car traffic and made way for parks, people-streets and bike-lanes.”

Better for the climate, better for health, better for livability and quality of life.

Common sense.

Such a no-brainer, it’s remarkable that more cities HAVEN’T done the same.
Paris said au revoir to cars. Air pollution maps reveal a dramatic change.

It's really urgent that people in Canada stop using Twitter. Musk and Trump have been reconciling recently so they could use Twitter to interfere with Canadian politics.

Millions of workers are toiling away from their families this holiday weekend.

So thank the workers who serve you. Appreciate the workers who care for you. Respect the workers who pick up your trash. Salute the workers who get you your mail.

Pay all workers a living wage.

It‘s not great that the best gloss on Carney’s pipeline deal is that he’s either pulling a fast one on the premier of Alberta or on the people of Canada.

Democracies can’t function if citizens have to resort to guessing what their leaders are actually doing.

Two years ago I had lunch with the dean of a department at one of Toronto’s major universities and she told me she had instructed all her profs teaching first-year classes to do exactly this. It sounded sensible and I wonder if it’s now more widely applied

highly recommend "Deliver Me From Nowhere"--beautiful nuanced performance by Jeremy Allen White as an artist struggling to make a transition to an unknown place while mired in obsessive memories of childhood; as audacious a film exploring the wellsprings of creativity as "Paterson."

“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”

It costs a lot less to house people.
