Apologies for being completely off topic. But I have a theory that if he'd been born a pleb he'd have "taught" English in some country where a white person doesn't require any kind of teaching qualifications beyond the ability to speak their first language. He'd be regaling everyone who'll listen with his judgy observations about the local culture and teaching wrong grammar rules "because that's just the way we say it." That's who I'm pretty sure this twit would be. Would definitely have a blog called something like Korean Musk.

Jailbreak from the factory farm. "Quick, no time to explain! Pretend you're my hat!"
A jaunty chapeau! Perched just so!
Skippy the oppositional attack puppy is against everything, including a functional Canadian government. Rotten little twit.
Same. "Affordable housing" used to be a straight up mathematical equation based mostly on income afaik. The Provincial government shifted to using the phrase "more affordable," a nebulous non-definition that could mean anything from "yes, a single parent working a full time job can afford rent" to "it's less than the million dollar condo down the hall." As you say, the key is we don't know atm. Add to that, will the city be capable of maintaining affordability after the Province has nuked rent control? Can we keep these units from being thousands of dollars 2 years after the doors open?
I posted in part because this project is something to keep an eye on. At the very least, this and the development at 5207 Dundas St. W. will teach us a lot about how our municipalities can get anything done these days. Also, Chow knows what she's doing, which is strange and refreshing.
No jumping for joy here either. Just watching and staying hopeful.
[edit bc I accidentally a word]
Right? The constant vigilance municipalities need just to deal with Provincial interference is exhausting, because we know they'll interfere with anything that might make life better for us and take money out of his bosses hands. And even when we do catch him out, it's not like we can shame him into doing the right thing. Mr. MZO just lies and keeps following orders. No consequences. Instead, he gets reelected.
Brilliant that we have a mayor who's able to get anything done, given what we're up against.
The religions we grew up in are similar. Bethel Pentecostal village in the middle of nowhere in my case, and my family were the outsiders (teh devils!) who moved there for cheap housing.
I'm sorry you had to sit in church and listen to that. It's terrifying for kids to experience the adults who are supposed to take care of them, giddy/possessed over the world ending.
I didn’t learn about their Israel obsession until my 20s. Christians moving to Israel so they can plant olive trees because it'll help the world end absolutely blew my mind.
Incel King's got priorities: start with all the women who said no.
It's sickening. I just read about the professor who had to leave her job and home after he sicced his deplorable fanbois on her all because she was critical of Tesla's driver-assist.
Cummings said she already knows of federal employees who “have dedicated their lives to civil service,” already quitting their jobs in anticipation of what’s to come.
“He intended for them, for people just like this, to be intimidated and just go ahead and quit so he didn’t have to fire them. So his plan, to some extent, is working,” she said.
CNN reached out to multiple experts and academics who specialize in cyber harassment, doxing and online abuse. But several declined to comment on the record for fear of themselves becoming Musk’s targets.
Professionals too afraid to speak about their area of expertise. Public servants quitting because they know what's coming for them. And Trump's not even started his second run yet.
It's why he starts by going after women who said no to him.
Just like the prof in the article said, he does it so you'll be threatened and harassed into leaving your job (and in her case, her home as well).
Telling everyone the reason both your daughters are pregnant with your babies is because they got you drunk, or that girls shouldn't get too huffy if it's their own brother that raped them - also options.
Genesis 19:30-38 and 2 Samuel 13:20-22
It's very that. Too many people here are like, "fundies OBVIOUSLY don't understand their own bible fwah fwah," when no, they totally do and they're actually really into all that End Times shit. Oceans warming up? Woo-hoo we're on our way to boiling! Another plague? Sweet! Another sign! Does this one have lesions? Christian Fundies have worked hard for their end times, doing their part to make the laws of god into the laws of man on earth.
Our planet on fire is literally their best case scenario (and exactly why they can't be trusted in any kind of public office). They know who Trump is. The imperfect vessel or the antichrist - it's just another sign to check off the list. I wish I was being hyperbolic.
You know that old saying, "every accusation is a confession"? When conservatives all over the world started getting hysterical about the WEF, I think what we all needed to be looking at was the IDU.
