Hi #yyjbike and #yyj more generally! I could use your help.
Inspired by the Victoria Chamber of Commerce getting back to banging the “all that matters is car parking” drum, I thought I might try to put together a “naughty and nice” report on local businesses.

The Chamber of Commerce in Victoria is coming out against bike lanes. Maybe a good idea to write in and express this same sentiment.
I haven't been to a single business in the Strip ever since their business association sued the city over protected bike lanes 😇

Western society is organized on the basis of who is The Staff, and who is The Customer.
The Staff perform domestic labour, such as agricultural work, restaurant work, daycare, teaching, nursing, etc.
The Customers are served by The Staff.
Financial wealth determines which group you belong to.

For what it’s worth, parenting has radicalized the shit out of me.
Our society is *so* deeply cruel and neglectful of children. It’s so shameful and so profoundly at the root of all that ails is.

An ICE agent has been arrested for putting a woman in a chokehold and causing “serious physical harm”
Police said they had been called to the residence 22 times
It’s time we talk about what kind of men are attracted to being ICE agents
Hint: It’s men who would strangle a woman

Everyone imitates Tolkien all the time except when it comes to the one way it would really matter: making the protagonist of your novel for children a short, fat, 50-year-old man who doesn't want to do anything.

An important thing is that infrastructure that allows cars but doesn't center them is still usable by cars, but infrastructure that fully centers cars is generally unusable by non-cars.
carbrain people want all our infrastructure focused on cars so they can pass through an area faster, meanwhile the people that live in that area walk and ride bicycles. it makes no sense to cater to passersby

Think much of the over-parenting we despise stems from the early on fear of the driver.
If parents weren't terrified of our streets kids would have so much more freedom and independence which might get them comfortable with their children's ability to navigate the world without them.

We can easily take this discussion back to the 2015 election too. How could we have elected Trudeau on a promise of electoral reform, and then he got elected and did not do that, but instead spent billions on an oil pipeline?
People who are still fooled by this want to get fooled.

Good on Penn Jillette. Having to come to terms with your entire political identity and philosophy being wrong is not easy and most people could never do it.

This is every bit as racist as what Trump's Department of Homeland Security is posting recently, except for this they've couched their racism in liberal language so that people who are not willing to be quite as openly racist can support it too.

We need bold responses to price shocks caused by extreme weather and corporate gouging. When will the government act and deliver on a public option for food?

Hot Take of the day: 95% of all "tiny homes" would be better off purchasing a single wide manufactured home and installing it in place.
As a bonus, the single wide could have a ramp up the side, and be way more ADA friendly. Reasonable size bathroom, no mandatory death loft, much more suitable

When we think about how universities really work, we have to believe the science.
It's a system for the maintenance of social hierarchy fully submerged inside capitalism.
If it prioritized truth instead of wealth, it would not behave like this.
