So @runningonmt_ and I wrote a thing on responding to many comparisons being made between Vietnam and Afghanistan and in terms in terms of our duty to refugees.
As children of Vietnamese refugees — of loved ones who died in camps, were kidnapped or drowned escaping, Afghanistan brings traumatic memories.

Why does the AI make the guy look like Joe Biden?
The President’s threats are beneath the honor of our nation, but the reality is that he wants to occupy our city and break our Constitution.
We must defend our democracy from this authoritarianism by protecting each other and protecting Chicago from Donald Trump.
ALT Truth Social post from President Donald Trump. “I love the smell of deportations in the morning…” Chicago about to find out why it’s called the Department of WAR.” AI generated image of Trump dressed like the movie Apocalypse Now with helicopters flying above a red Chicago skyline behind him.

Kevin doesn’t know how acronyms work so let me demonstrate. Did you know that KV in Kevin Vuong, means “keeps violating” the court order when it appears that you have not paid up your settlement and wastes the court’s time? #IYKYK
I didn't know the 'D' in NDP stood for 'Deforming women with acid for refusing to cover their hair'.
Thanks to the NDP's former candidate for Etobicoke-Lakeshore for enlightening me.

This is all public information. Go ahead and sue me for libel or defamation and do the thing you do best - waste the court’s time canlii.org/en/on/onsc/doc/20…

Dumb idea that might work on a stupid person who is holding the global economy hostage - Have economists considered renaming “trade deficit” to something else?

Respect to Kevin - a true poster moonlighting as an MP. He did this for love of the game.
I am not withdrawing from public service.
You do not have to be in public office to make a public difference, and I'm more focused than ever on building a better city, province, and country – not only for us, but for my daughter and the next generation.

I actually think the fact that they’re all executives and that there’s no tech worker perspective who are day in and day out doing the building is the bigger blindspot.
Only aware of UVW-CWA right now that could at least represent Canadian tech workers in video games

Tristin - telling an anecdote how he was a child psychopath and then using experience to pronounce all children are this way.
Everyone else - no children are not like this.
Tristin - *Realizing he revealed he’s a bad person* Actually I was joking…
In my day, the humourless puritan bullies were all right-wingers. If our readership is exploding of late (and it is), it's partially because we offer a vision of life that isn't just clucking your tongue at perceived improprieties until you die.

I always thought we don’t learn enough about Jack Welch on setting the model to move production into rent-seeking behavior from shareholders. This is a great piece
Newsletter: The Shareholder Supremacy has eaten the world, turning the tech industry into the playground of do-nothing management dictators that see human beings as assets and the customer as subordinate to growth - all inspired by GE’s Jack Welch.

The Planning and Housing Committee just passed a renovictions bylaw like Hamilton! We did it! They got our message loud and clear. Thank to everyone that made deputations or sent in letters. I've been advocating for this for 5 years and we finally got here.

3 there is something to be said since the Vietcong and the PLO in the 1960s and 1970s very much looked to each other as inspirations for resistance movements. I don’t have much of a finished thought here but wanted to think out loud.
