Today I had to say goodbye to my most wonderful nearly 18 year old little Mr Asta.
We had so many adventures together - moving across continents, visiting so many wonderful places from coast to coast.
Sleep in peace my darling - I will miss you so very much.

Just in case you missed what’s going on in the Alps.
Last week #Zermatt in Switzerland was cut off from access d/t massive #flooding
Now it’s the Italian town Noasca.
#Climatechange is real and comes with more intense weather (and the fallout).

Are y'all prepared to give this up? How about $10/day childcare? What about the Canada Child Benefit? Your right to abortion? ability to retire at 65? LGBTQ2 rights? your weed?! Elect the Conservatives and kiss all this goodbye baby.
More than 2 million Canadians are covered by the Canadian Dental Care Plan.
More than 200,000 Canadians have already received the care they need.
We’re delivering for Canadians.

“Switching from a liberal government to a conservative government will not solve any of these issues. In fact it will make all of them worse a lot worse. If you don’t believe me go look what’s happening in the UK. The UK decimated all social services 👇👇👇#NeverVoteConserative @JustinTrudeau #PierrePoilievreIsLyingToYou #PierrePoilievre #canadaday2024 #canadaday @PierrePoilievre

Tommy Robinson is a far right, anti-Islam activist from the UK with convictions for stalking, assault, mortgage fraud, entering the US with a false passport and libel against a 15 yr old refugee. Yesterday he met with one of Doug Ford’s MPPs & Chair of the Justice Committee.

4 days after Ford gov’t said “no immediate job losses” from closing the Science Centre, layoffs are starting with our food services members. Such unnecessary harm to kids, families and workers when they can fix the roof AND keep the Science Centre open.

Is this why #H5N1 hasn’t been found in Canadian cattle herds yet?
No shared equipment/personnel cross border?

Pleasure to address the crowd at the @SaveOSC rally. We need to get LOUD, across the province to get Ford to open the science centre back up! Visit savesciencecentre.com and help them get LOUD! #topoli #onpoli

$650 million to make booze available in corner stores 1 year sooner? Yup.
$13 million to repair the roof of the Science Center so kids have something fun and educational to do all year round?
That’s apparently too much to ask.
This reeks.
Confirmed by @abozikovic
The engineering report shows the Science Centre needs a little over $13 million in roof repairs - to replace defective panels- quite modest in infrastructure terms.
Just the public subsidy for the Therme mega-spa would be AT LEAST $650 million.

This framing "closing for good" seems a lot like government spin.
The Ontario Science Centre is only "closing for good" if we let the government get away with NOT making the repairs necessary to rescue this public landmark.
We don't NEED to let them get away with it.

I spoke with Reddit ex-CTO about AI and basic income.
If automation moves fast enough to disrupt work, society will need a new social contract that includes bolder forms of basic income and shorter workweeks.

You may have missed it.
#Euro2024 is currently on in Germany.
Fans from all over Europe visiting.
The Scots have made friends all over Germany and it’s really kind of cute.
Sharing a beer, or two or three, with friends.
