"Cars and Independence" (Art by Sylvia Odhner)
  • In Japan they have rail lines that seamlessly integrate with the metro system of large cities.

    And even if cars for rural users is necessary, their driving experience will be much smoother if all the other people have good access to transit.

  • [Eric Berger] Trump official to Katy Perry and Bezos’ fiancée: “You cannot identify as an astronaut”
  • If I ride the disney cruise line am I a sailor?

    If we allow space tourists to count as astronauts then it diminishes the actual heroes like Gagarin, Shepard, Tereshkova, Armstrong, or Sally Ride.

    Plus. I really don't want to have to call Branson or Bezos astronauts.

  • A network of X accounts is targeting Canada ahead of the election
  • Revoking citizenship is a bad president.

    He's actively aiding and abbeding the government of a hostile foreign nation that has vocally demanded we scede our sovereignty and surrender our territory to them.

    He should be charged with treason.

  • Republicans vs Democrats
  • Which of these candidates do you think will be more willing to have their minds changed with protests and petitions?

    Nothing is going to be easy or perfect, but we can at least choose the most likely candidate that is slightly more aligned with our desired outcome and then fight for what is needed.

  • He can vote too
  • It's percentage of the entire population, if you organized everyone from lowest to highest IQ, what percentage of the entire population would you need to include for them to be in the top. It's a little clearer when a point of interest is near the top. E.G. "person is in the top 1% of people in terms of wealth."

    A less kind way to say it is '91% of people have a higher IQ than this person'.

  • Would you wear a body cam at work?
  • I imagine if my occupation includes carrying a gun, interacting with citizens, and a historically high rate of extrajudicial deaths amongst people I am supposed to be protecting. A publicly accessible camera would be beneficial to easing the minds of those I interact with and providing evidence for any actual instances where I felt my life was threatened.

  • Behind the scenes
  • I imagine that he is equating the spectrum back to the rainbow, where red is the 'top' of the visible arch when a single rainbow is seen from the ground.

    Of course the outer ring from a double rainbow flips the order of the colours, but that's probably being needlessly pedantic.

  • Saskatchewan files for injunction as CRA attempts to take $28M its owed under federal carbon tax
  • The way it's set up it sure looks like Saskatchewan is still technically collecting the tax and just paying the amount right back from their own budget. And Saskatchewan citizens are still getting the carbon payouts from Ottawa.

    Saskatchewan citizens will still have to pay for Moe's stupidity, but the deficit will be in the Saskatchewan budget, not an individual extra tax bill.

    Mainly means that Moe will just continue to destroy Education and Healthcare, which was his main goal anyway.
