“The Strait of Hormuz closure has caused the biggest oil supply disruption in history. About 20% of global supply has been disrupted for 9 days, more than double the previous record set during the 1956 Suez crisis.
There’s virtually no spare capacity to address the problem.”
Rethink oil dependency.
white text on black City: We unanimously declare a climate emergency! We must make change no matter what the cost, humanity's survival depends on it! Community: Can we put in a protected mobility lane? City: No, we'll lose parking spots
An emergency
Like electrification?
in case you've never seen it, this is Roger Ebert on The Mummy
Would rather see Hutson on the left tbh
X’s Grok is failing to accurately verify video footage from the Iran conflict and is sharing its own AI-generated images about the war. www.wired.com/story/fake-a...
But other than their lyrics, it’s the only thing they have that differentiates them from rock/pop… 😂
Probably could’ve used him in the Olympics vs the goalie he knows the best. 🤷♂️
So how do wheelchair users board, or people with strollers? 🤔
Walk into a sandwich shop. It’s regulated for health and safety.
But AI, which will transform the world economically and socially, is completely unregulated. That’s insane.
We need to make certain that AI works for ALL humanity, not just the billionaires who own it.
Today on #IWD 2026 we celebrate women leading climate action.
Climate change disproportionately affects women, and addressing inequality is essential for a sustainable future for everyone.
Uhhhhhhhhhh
The Houston government inherited a balanced budget and received unprecedented revenue over the last five years — more money to work with than any government in our province’s history. And the premier himself is a chartered accountant.
Yeah, cool, so a short 🧵 about Halifax's finances.
Right now, after 14 or so year of taxes Halifax is at the precipice of a debt crisis which has the genuine potential to be destabilizing to our government. Most likely reforms instead of revolution but destabilizing none the less.
Why now?

Should be watching the Habs come back in the 3rd period down 5-2 to the Sharks! 5-5 now with 3:45 left!
Would sure be nice to have Xhekaj playing…
Sure would be nice to have a certain someone playing…
“Babe wake up, the Habs just scored three times down 5-2 to tie the game 5-5.”
Sure would be nice to have Xhekaj in the lineup…
I feel shame for guessing he maybe meant Rocket Robin Hood? 😂 What a weirdo! (Also I’m old apparently haha!)
'Elon Musk’s X was the epicentre of Canadian conspiracy content, accounting for 70 per cent of likes and the majority of posts....a hub for deepfake pornographic images and misinformation, the platform remains a primary communication tool for Canadian politicians.'
Opinion: It’s time to prioritize Canada’s media sovereignty and democratic resilience

This cut is harmful. Our cities have funding gaps and rural communities that are less able to raise revenues even more so.
Investment in transit creates mobility. Mobility unlocks people's potential, creating economic activity that feeds a virtuous cycle.

Very dystopian stuff:
Canadian political candidates are getting pitched on signing up their supporters for apps that scan social media for negative comments about them, use AI to come up with counternarratives then post AI-generated comments defending them from their real human supporters’ accounts
I agree, in fact I think it’s imperative as although people aren’t supposed to infer “tone” in emails, I think it’s human nature to do so at least initially. What if we all sounded like robots?
This is to say nothing about reading an article, etc where I prefer an author due to their writing style.

From Re.Climate: 70% of public would feel pride if 🇨🇦 were to become a *renewable* energy superpower vs only 30% who feel that way about being an oil & gas superpower.
From poll with Abacus: Climate change remains a top concern, & Canadians expect action from leaders.
