In 2017, 150k people paid Cards Against Humanity to protect a pristine plot of border land from Trump’s racist wall. But then an even richer, more racist billionaire—@ElonMusk—stole their land and dumped his shit all over it. Fuck that! https://t.co/jNCoJTL3Uy #ElonOwesMe100Bucks

The lady at the @GOtransit Whitby station is hilarious, she literally yells at people who aren’t doing what she asked over the speakers. Good for her. Mind you, can’t hear her properly at the west end of the platform cause the speaker isn’t working properly. 🙄

[John Tobin @johntobin]

@GOtransit Thanks!

[John Tobin @johntobin]

@barenakedladies Is it E) Friendship with Steven Page, final answer!

[John Tobin @johntobin]

@GOtransit Went to check out your bike rules by clicking the https://t.co/esHSe1QEYn link above. Good to know there are no rules, I guess? How do you plan to keep your #shortcutLinks safe for everyone?

[John Tobin @johntobin]

@GOtransit @Kapur_AK Let me help your 'business case', as if public transit is a business. There are no other ways to get to and from without taking a car, or being stuck on car infrastructure. Benefits: all of them. Now go.

[John Tobin @johntobin]

@DDSBSchools This is great, and all, but as you can't staff the current schools, what's the plan to staff these new ones @Sflecce ?

[John Tobin @johntobin]

I'd love to, @Metrolinx , but Go Tracker is a UX mess, and unusable for travelling from Union Station when using my computer. Why not just put the functionality on https://t.co/0R03mO4JKk? WHY DOES ONTARIO MAKE ALL PUBLIC TRANSIT SO DIFFICULT?!

[John Tobin @johntobin]

So please tell me, @GOtransit , am I going insane or does the computer version of your https://t.co/PhVFGOXXFN website not allow me to see train times FROM Union Station?! #transit

[John Tobin @johntobin]

@GOtransit By the way, this picture didn't show all the cars behind me blocked to get out. It's happened several times since, absolute chaos for no reason. All you have to do is mark every third lane with arrows and 'no stopping', and perhaps put P symbols in the other lanes. Bit of paint!

[John Tobin @johntobin]

Hey @GOtransit , why not sort out the markings and rules for your kids and ride pickups in Whitby. Clearly no one knows how to use it, and trying to keep a lane free leaves you at the back. It’s not like public transit is easy and convenient m, why make it harder?

[John Tobin @johntobin]

Awesome, my @GOtransit train is screaming ads at me now at top volume, something about hockey. Bad enough the quiet zone is sponsored by a megacorp. Are you TRYING to drive people away?

[John Tobin @johntobin]

@GOtransit Thx that would be great. My picture didn’t show the additional cars behind me, all blocked from exiting the pickup if their passengers arrived first.

[John Tobin @johntobin]

@rickster9999 @CBCNews Already covered in primary curriculum. Which is mandatory.

[John Tobin @johntobin]

@fordnation Liar. Deceitful liar.

It has been an honour to serve the students and families of my community. But I would be untruthful if I said being a trustee has been a great joy. I believe the government should revisit the structure of school boards and I believe it should happen urgently.

[John Tobin @johntobin]

@elonmusk By ‘independent minded’, you clearly mean stupid.

[John Tobin @johntobin]

@Sflecce You’re the one that walked away from the negotiating table you absolute muppet.
