The hour cuts to my local library have gone in (7 instead of 8). It’s 7:30pm now and people are sitting outside the library doing whatever they’d be doing inside the library, I assume. Yesterday I was in there at 6:50pm and there were still at least 15-20 people in there. SUCKS MAN!!

and if your second most liveable city in canada is a place with one commercial district, no public transit, and a median home price of three million dollars, then i sincerely think you should look at your metrics and start over again, because that’s only livable to a very narrow slice of people

"Trump won 91 percent of “news desert” counties—where there is no local coverage of any kind—by an average of 54 percentage points. Notably, several of these are heavily Latino counties on the southern Texas border, which saw enormous swings toward Trump." prospect.org/politics/202...
Democrats Lost the Propaganda War
The party used up about $5 billion on political ads in 2024. There’s a better way.

Without having seen or heard this speaker, I know which cafe it is and can say with some certainty that their staff retention rate does not imply that being tipped in bitcoin is particularly amazing for them
Another speaker talks about his coffee shop which accepts Bitcoin & pays out tips to staff in the currency. He says he wants his coffee shop to be like the historic cafes in Vienna, which "sparked timeless contributions to academia, psychology, music and economics"

A stop sign intersecting a road with a red light does not in fact magically turn into a green light. It is still a stop sign.
If one more person honks at me for crossing at a stop sign, I’m going to start carrying a padlock on a scarf

Sometimes when people say that transit and bikes will never be preferred because cars are always faster, I wonder when we decided that fastest is best
