Cormorant piss is basically bleach and their existence doesn’t make sense to me. Just going around killing foliage of all those nice little island trees #ottawa #ottbike

The nicest festival in #ottawa is in full swing a week early (technically I believe). It’s a festival the actual city is defunding which is very on the brand of “fuck you if you live here”

I think about this often and especially today, that #bikes are apparently only for recreation… as if 95% of people driving today have tool chests in their trunks or 200 lbs of grocery from Costco. Cars are the ultimate in recreational vehicles #ottawa #ottbike #biketooter

Wasn’t Sadie the mayor that brought in congestion pricing for the city of #london ?? And look at that he’s being elected for the 3rd time?? To dream is hard #ottawa #onpoli https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/uk-politics-68609732

Visiting Tartelette in Old Ottawa East with a new biking friend from Algeria. We lived here until last year and the new Grande Allee park is quasi open beside the building we used to live in. I guess drainage is for after it’s all open? #ottawa #ottbike

Shit, this bridge has been closed to people driving for a while and somehow the world didn’t end… I heard it would end for sure, the downtown would crumble, people driving would have breakdowns, emotional distress… Jesus NCC grow a pair and just close it for good and it’ll even save you a few hundred million from what I hear #ottawa #ottbike #biketooter

So cops just hung out and watched UCLA student anti-war protesters be beat to shit, maced, and bear sprayed for hours then Biden the next day says nothing about this except to blame students. It’s wild to watch in real time where power moves, what it protects, what it condemns, what it refers to when it comes to the myth of “law and order.” I guess the US is mystified that the decades they spent murdering innocent Arab peoples didn’t desensitize everyone #cdnpoli #gaza #us

I guess it would have taken some real journalism to see this is about food insecurity, food deserts, monopolies and maybe the investigation of how fucking massive the vertical integration is of #loblaws supply chain but instead went with “privilege.” #canada #cdnpoli #ottawa https://www.cbc.ca/news/business/loblaw-boycott-privilege-1.7192869

At least on a federal level it’s very fucking wild that a simple majority government can impose the use of the notwithstanding clause and that no fail safe for its use, provincially or federally was included. The idea that its use is okay because we can vote people out of office is so oversimplified and stupid #ottawa #canada #cdnpoli https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/historic-potential-notwithstanding-federal-use-1.7193180

The liberals and NDP have zero fucking clue what to do in #ontario It feels like the conservatives could run Rob ford’s crack dealer in a by election and win right now. Just utterly unserious and embarrassing #onpoli https://apple.news/AEf6h5di1QgGK_Y8fOEBABQ

The mental gymnastics required to still use Twitter. Fuentes is the poster child of virulent anti-Semitism but I guess because Musk went to Poland it’s all fucking good… #twitter #cdnpoli https://www.axios.com/2024/05/03/elon-musk-nick-fuentes-x-account

Listening to the Commons series on “Work” and among the myriad of bullshit is the idea that the free market is free. I don’t understand how anyone can be taken seriously who says this still exists. The fuckery of industry and government together in the fishing industry (as one tiny example) is wild. None of this is new but it’s ongoing in 2024 and I don’t get how the charade still exists (power and money blah blah blah) #canada #cdnpoli

Get back to the office and beat those carbon emissions records, public servants. Beat them in the wrong direction, that is. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/ontario-carbon-emissions-ghg-inventory-1.7191765

I love the “fuck it” energy of squirrels. Seeing them tree hop over the flood #ottawa river and when they are landing on the proximate tree branches. The scrambling to grab the branches 50 ft above the water is admirable. Don’t have much of them energy right now, but I appreciate watching it

Netflix is cancelling our $9.99 plan and I guess folks are going to the ad tier or the $17 one but fuck em. Watching some stuff now and then byeeeeeeee #ottawa #netflix
