Community. We can't buy it, or vote it into being. But we can build it, with some basic tools. #respect #perseverance Opinions my own.

Os bombardeios em território venezuelano e a captura do seu presidente ultrapassam uma linha inaceitável. Esses atos representam uma afronta gravíssima à soberania da Venezuela e mais um precedente extremamente perigoso para toda a comunidade internacional.

Atacar países, em flagrante violação do direito internacional, é o primeiro passo para um mundo de violência, caos e instabilidade, onde a lei do mais forte prevalece sobre o multilateralismo.

A condenação ao uso da força é consistente com a posição que o Brasil sempre tem adotado em situações recentes em outros países e regiões.

A ação lembra os piores momentos da interferência na política da América Latina e do Caribe e ameaça a preservação da região como zona de paz.

A comunidade internacional, por meio da Organização das Nações Unidas, precisa responder de forma vigorosa a esse episódio. O Brasil condena essas ações e segue à disposição para promover a via do diálogo e da cooperação.

The wild part is not that Trump posted this, it’s that this open call to close the airspace of a UN-recognized sovereign state is, in international law terms, a textbook act of aggression.

No legal basis, UN mandate and bilateral agreement, just U.S. president publicly instructing airlines, pilots, and bizarrely, “drug dealers” to treat another country’s airspace as void.

This isn’t “foreign policy,” it is a unilateral declaration that U.S. political whims override another nation’s sovereignty.

If any non-Western state said this about U.S. airspace, it would be called: an invasion threat. But when Washington does it, the world is expected to pretend it’s normal.

@elonmusk Thanks for telling us that you are clearly not a behavioural scientist, but a meme monger pushing propaganda.

Any behavioural scientist knows that we don’t extrapolate sweeping conclusions about human behaviour from animal models.

All to push anti-immigration bullshit. 🤢🤮

Q: Stefanik has called Mamdani a 'jihadist.' Do you think you're standing next to a jihadist right now?

TRUMP: No, I don't. I met with a man who's a very rational person

Let’s get something REALLY clear.

People who are able to, & choose to, walk and/or bike for transportation in cities are doing ALL OF US a big favour.

Doing so saves public money & public space, improves traffic for everyone, pollutes less, mitigates climate change, & MORE. 1/2

In case you think car-obsessed cities can’t get even more car-insane, watch Winnipeg ask for public input on expensive, over-designed #PortageAndMain intersection options that try desperately to keep people from even slightly inconveniencing cars downtown. https://t.co/0S0pHt9BwS

@brent_bellamy @thenewlynovel It’s a shame that so much devolves into ‘us vs them’ these days, instead of constructive discourse on how things might be different, AND better.

Especially in the case of auto infrastructure, being the gigantic public and private expense that it is.

[Neil Bailey @NeilJohnBailey]

@thenewlynovel @brent_bellamy For the people in the back: BEING A CYCLIST DOES NOT MEAN THAT YOU DON’T OWN A CAR.

[Neil Bailey @NeilJohnBailey]

@thenewlynovel @brent_bellamy While drivers pay tax on gasoline, licensing and insurance, none of this revenue pays for city roads. Tax on gas goes to provincial and federal coffers, not the city. Bicyclists also pay municipal taxes - specifically, property taxes - the same as drivers. 2/3

[Neil Bailey @NeilJohnBailey]

@thenewlynovel @brent_bellamy As with most bike-related posts, let’s clarify some things here for folks.

So some people still seem to think that transportation infrastructure is somehow paid for by drivers through MPI, when roads are actually paid for primarily through municipal property taxes. 1/3
