I can't believe that after a decade+ of shelf-check at @torontolibrary their software still throws an error if the cover of the book is too "shiny". Nobody once thought ok I'll just take 10 minutes of code and tell the user to go to the desk instead of dumping debug code.
Some pals over at East End Acts are still plucking away at our little campaign. Let the @torontolibrary know that you want to see accountability for their removal of Refaat Alareer's poem from the Main st library branch actionnetwork.org/letters/demand…

7 years ago, I wrote a small piece about a man who was falsely accused of a crime. A few days later, I got an anonymous telling me to look up the woman they called “the evilest white woman on earth.” What happened next is the absolute wildest story you’ll ever hear A thread

I was arrested and criminally charged this morning for taking part in a pro-Palestine demonstration in January The millions struggling in Palestine are not alone, millions more are with them, pushing from abroad in love and solidarity ❤️🖤🤍💚
Gotta wonder... the 'shopper' for our online grocery order sent a bag of giant lemons instead of Golden Delicious Apples. Roundish and yellow yes... but... How? Why? They thought it'd be funny, or ...
Tomorrow, the #TTC Board will review proposed policies guiding use of force and body-worn cameras by Special Constables and Fare Inspectors. A massive oversight is the lack of consultation with unhoused people or homelessness services, which I will begin to address.
Spare us a moment as we draw your attention away from today's fire ball in the sky to tomorrow's fire in our savannah. High Park's annual traditional and prescribed burn, Biinaakzigewok Anishnaabeg in Anishinaabemowin, will take place tomorrow, Tuesday, April 9. 🌳🔥🌳

Harm reduction is a pragmatic, evidence-based, cost-effective, life-saving public health practice, but because it's unprofitable, governments like @fordnation are allowing it to collapse in order to quietly push a lucrative privatized treatment industry. The cost? People's lives.

On "garbage day" I always question if so many of the neighbours can't follow the instructions on how to place their bins on the curb, what hope is there that they've followed the instructions on *what* to put into the bins? #wasteTO
It has been less than 6 years since @torontolibrary 's NYCL reopened after a terribly managed renovation. The place is already literally falling apart. The shoddy work-ship evident from day one re-opening has compounded into a mess. The community's flagship space deserves better.
For anyone following the saga, they tried to plow it today! The plow has the perpetual issue of not knowing how to take a curve so only 1/5th of the actual sidewalk was cleared but it did make my clean-up efforts not as onerous. 0 comms from Transportation or Councillor's offic

Toronto, you have one weekend to do all the sledding, snowball throwing, fort building, and snowman rolling that you didn’t get a chance to do this winter. Go!
I've always been a little 'freaked out' by the "Watch Your Speed" sign on my street bathing the yard in radio waves... but now that it triggers off my new shovel I don't know what to think. I can shovel snow at 10kph which is impressive, but ick

Latest from University of Toronto admin: “If your activities remain peaceful, we do not intend to remove you from campus this evening,” says vice provost Sandy Welsh, in a letter to the encampment group (UofT Occupy for Palestine.) cbc.ca/news/canada/to…
🚨 LIBERATED!! @UofT students have SUCCESSFULLY set up their ENCAMPMENT of King's College Circle in SOLIDARITY WITH PALESTINE, despite attempts by police to disrupt our non-violent protest. Welcome to the People's Circle for Palestine.
so proud of this student for calmly asking why she equates keffiyeh with terrorism. also glad CBC reported on this, it's happening everywhere cbc.ca/news/canada/to…
We're troubled by @HaltonDSB Guidance Counselor likening a student to a terrorist for wearing a keffiyah-a cultural piece of clothing. We've alerted @HaltonDSB administration. More updates coming soon. #noroomforhate
@1goodtern Panic is not usually the best response to a situation. However NOW would be the best time to act. Preferably swiftly and efficiently.
Replace the MCAT with one question: Do you think it’s reasonable for healthcare workers to risk harming or killing a patient for their own comfort/ convenience/ preference?
Toronto needs to get serious about bus lanes and priority. When there’s a subway shutdown the road should probably be closed to non local traffic.
You break the no-story-ideas rule, you get blocked. You try and ridicule the no-story-ideas rule, you get blocked. I mean it. Cleaning house.
Hey @askcanpar @Canparshipping your driver was discourteous to a road user asking him not to park in bike lanes, which he did all along Sherbourne & Wellesley in Toronto. Your driver also threatened to knock the cyclist out. I've advised the cyclist to report to @TorontoPolice
Actually just had the thought that it makes more sense for me to drive at this point. A mistake on the ttc is worth like 2 weeks of groceries, but in my car it’s a fine I barely notice. What an insane way to run a transit system, an absolute failure.
@rogueparalegal @Breanna_Needham I will! But just can’t stop thinking about how much it must cost us to run the courts for this, how people need to take time off work to go… how is this how this works??
@g_meslin They did this at College/Huron last year, but they put the posts on the inside of the bike lane. I've been trying to get them to fix it for months but all I've managed to uncover is a deep well of apathy and contempt
@DesmondCole @SarahJama_ 💜 Thanks Sarah. Please continue, In Solidarity. 💜
The thing that makes me most enraged watching Sarah Jama is knowing that the ONDP dropped her, leaving her alone and exposed in this den of snakes to take the morally just position all by herself.
This photo should be etched into our collective memory, because it contains much about the present moment that future generations will one day look back on with both bafflement and shame
Good for her. This ban is insane, discriminatory, and it needs to be repealed immediately.
Have other cities been engaged in a 16 year campaign of figuring out what a garbage can is? Or just us?
Mayor Chow examines one of the improved street bins, 1000 of which will be trialled. Wonder if the bigger openings will lead to more dumping
BTW: Sarah Jama is openly defying the keffiyeh ban in the Ontario legislature. #onpoli
