Fun with following authors: is this a book being written or a book being read… Who can say?

I am really disappointed I couldn't make it to see his talk, but I love this video about my city from @nerd4cities.bsky.social

It amazes me how many people talk about Edmonton like we have no urban amenities when we consistently perform above much larger cities.

One of the most frustrating parts of buying vinyl records is not (always) getting a download code… and a turntable from the 80s so I can't exactly rip it without a lot of adapters

I consider it a massive failure of the algorithm that nothing alerted my trans indie/alt/folk self to #rainbowkittensurprise. For shame! Zuck clocked me almost a year before I did, but Spotify (since cancelled) couldn't connect me with a band that hits like everything about me?

#efmf was great

More and more I think how we balance and allocate the power of elected officials does not reflect the public's assumptions. That can be good and bad, but it is definitely something to remember when talking about—and critiquing—public leaders.

I wish journalists would stop framing political news as wins or losses for politicians or political parties. It’s an abrogation of our mission. Why do we keep doing this? Is the spending bill a win or loss for the American people? Who does it help? Who does it hurt? Is it sound policy? Fiscally?

Did you see that Edmonton was featured as the prairie’s top urban cycling city? 🎉 the City’s continued investment in active transportation is getting us noticed as a world class city! momentummag.com/canada-top-n...

It's never about the science. It's always about having a legal basis for your fear and hatred of other people.

While I’m happy the CPC is down in the polls, I’m even more happy that my riding is still an NDP/CPC battle.

I may not be thrilled with leadership at the moment, but I would still rather have an MP closer to my values.

Two Conservative insiders told @stephenmaher.bsky.social that Poilievre’s team discussed using Conservative candidate Jamil Jivani to send back channel messages to JD Vance requesting Donald Trump “distance himself from Poilievre”

My dog, seconds after demanding I sit on the couch, NOT the armchair.

So this is absolutely a step backwards from one of our only remaining third places. #yeg edmontonjournal.com/news/local-n...

1. The far right is falsely spreading that a new study shows that surgery "doubles depression" for transgender people.

This is an egregious misreading of the study, which does not look at transgender people before and after surgery.

Lets dig in.

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell.

This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

“If we’re going to strategize and be honest about where we have to go we have to look back”

It’s not the best, but I was happy with this

This is a big step in the wrong direction.
There isn't much that the municipalities could do without provincial support, so I do understand the decision. But provincial funding should never have been pulled.
