Nonviolence: For A Change

[WR Nonviolence @WRNonviolence]

@ChrisSadeler $70 billion for the expected lifespan of the F35 fighter jets being bought now. It will cost even more when more fighters are needed when these crash. Not sure if $70 billion includes the $500 million for housing. Hangars for jets, that is. Not roofs over people's heads.

[WR Nonviolence @WRNonviolence]

@ChrisSadeler No, that's not right. We're spending $70 billion on fighter jets while people are homeless, children live in poverty, and Indigenous people have no drinkable water. *And* it's Monday too.

You can join mastodon here: https://t.co/3Tt64ETX3E
It's free, doesn't have ads, and doesn't track you all over the place. It's run by volunteers and donations afaik. It also doesn't have algorithms to keep you online as long as possible, which also makes it hard to find accounts

For KW folks transitioning from Twitter to anything that works with Mastodon, I've started a Waterloo Region Events account. You can view the account and all the posts here:

Pedestrian access to the Kitchener train station remains:
A complete and total embarrassment to the region.

From @[email protected]: I just finished Moneylike. […] all money is made valuable by violence is an excellent point that #Graeber made in #DebtTheFirst5000Years.

Queen Elizabeth's funeral cost an est. $9 million — adding to the est. $116 million bill UK taxpayers pay every year to support the royals.

Due to the ceremony, hospitals canceled "non-urgent" services like cancer treatment and many food banks have closed "out of respect."

[CODEPINK @codepink]

The monarchy is violence.
