Worse, in my jurisdiction (Ontario, Canada), the government has decided to rip up bike lanes… to “reduce congestion” i.e. to own the libs.

The federal government has announced a plan to build high-speed rail along the major population corridor. But they’ll be soon replaced by idiots whose whole platform is “undo it all”.

One of Elon’s private flights can easily produce as much CO2 as the average US inhabitant does in a whole year.

See for yourself.

Very nice looking knife.

Mostly I use a regular kitchen knife (ie non serrated) for bread too, just have to keep it very sharp. It’s carbon steel so it’s easy to hone and strop.

Not only a petrostate, but also a dictatorship and a state that just ethnically cleansed 100,000 Armenians and is getting ready to do even more of that.

Modern bikes being less maintainable is largely on the extreme low-end like Walmart bikes, or extreme high end carbon-fiber nonsense designed for rich weekend warriors.

Best if you find a shop that deals in second-hand bikes and get a cheap one. A bike that has been maintained by such a shop is likely to continue being maintainable. Plus you may not know what kind of bike you like til you ride it for a while so don’t spend too much for your first one.

How dare they damage the frame of an artwork and make the curators have to wipe off soup from the protective plexiglas, while leaving the artwork entirely intact?

How dare they throw easily-removed biodegradable cornstarch-based paint onto Stonehenge? Don’t these monsters know Stonehenge is made of such fragile stones?

Americans (and others in “democracies”) can choose every few years which oligarchs have a turn at the wheel. However, any kind of democracy at the workplace is forbidden. Workers getting together to decide what to produce by democratic means? Sounds like communism. Can only get democracy theatre.

Only if you’re American.

Damn I had to go to Europe to get my ass ate by a cryptid

There’s no way I’d use a grocery app. Paper and pen works well enough.

Now, if my phone had a slide-out physical keyboard like it did back in fucking 2007, I’d consider it. As it is, typing on phones is pain.

Odd to see Papua New Guinea referred to as an “Island Nation” as if it were like a microstate in the Pacific. It’s half of New Guinea and bunch of other islands besides, and it’s bigger than Sweden.

Under pressure from Nazis and tankies.

Can we also bulldoze the Nazi SS cemetery in Oakville and for good measure, flood it with piss?

Apparently the monument is gone “for repairs”.

May 1st colour being red is a nice subtle touch.

All profit is stolen wages.

The commute itself? Hard to say. But according to the article, a billionaire produces emissions equivalent to a million average people.

There are 3,311 billionaires.

Once they are eliminated, that’s the emissions of 3.3 billion people taken care of.

“Each side” is the issue - this party is going to let the conversation be driven by existing parties rather than any objective thinking. It’s leaving the conversation to be defined by the hegemonic political machines. So I expect nothing new. Another party of business as usual.

Sure, Canada’s doing great but we’re driving off a cliff in many respects. Once the ground gives out we’re gonna have a bad time.

What Canada needs: yet another party jostling to get to the center as quickly as possible. Another party whose platform is the Overton Window. The most average party possible.

Yep it looks like the report only takes into account emissions from consumption, not from wildfires etc.
