I will be making this account dormant. I cannot in good conscience support a platform that has changed to what it’s become under Musk’s leadership. Hope to see most of you again somewhere else in the future.

I hope that city politicians reflect, ask experts, and take time to learn. Can safe supply systems be better run, absolutely, but making knee-jerk decisions based on public opinions after one unbalanced presser is literally playing politics with people lives. Do the work!

Anyone else noticing more right-wing conspiracies and propaganda on twitter lately. Now that Musk has gone full-on MAGA does anyone trust him not to alter the algorithms to benefit his political leanings?

Yesterday Toronto set a daily rainfall record, the day before different storm London set one. Both cases the ran was all within a 2 hour period. Pavement and infrastructure shortfalls exasperated the problem, but at the heart of it this is what climate change looks like in 2024.

Now is not the time to cave to NIMBY whims. Density increases need to consult staff (can services support it) and developers (will you build it). Density as a right is essential to get out of our housing crisis, make homes affordable again, and fight urban sprawl.

Where’s the pressers and pressure campaign over safe supply alcohol sold at LCBO and Beer Store outlets reaching teenagers through a vast network of black market distributors. It’s time we end safe supply alcohol, think of the community..wait we’re making to easy to buy?

There is no such thing as a ‘leftist expert’, their just experts. It’s people who don’t like what an expert has to say who call them leftist to try to diminish the value of their knowledge.

The rhetoric coming out of the far right, blaming the media and democrats for the assassination attempt on Trump is beyond dangerous. This is much more likely to escalate than settle down. Conspiracy theories will flow, extreme folx will feel like extreme measures are justified

It’s easy to blame corps for food prices going wild instead of accepting our own collective responsibility. ie. Olive oil has gotten very expensive fast. It is a global commodity. Production worldwide is down 35% in the last 5 years due to extreme weather and climate in Spain.

If you’re drawing media attention to the police board you’re on you’re probably not doing it right. City council has the power to change who they appoint to the police services board, should they exercise that power?

Crime in London has not been getting worse. If you’re convinced it is the you’re A) spending too much time on social media B) more classist than you realize because homelessness has gone up C) more racist than you realize because diversity has gone up. lfpress.com/news/local-new…
