Last Notes npub1synur4w7hjaxekky0pj7zltqmjet03pcmjp2sdzpcqeafslqm89sz706cu pamfer extrordinaire @nprofile…k95v That is beautiful. npub1synur4w7hjaxekky0pj7zltqmjet03pcmjp2sdzpcqeafslqm89sz706cu pamfer extrordinaire So excited because I got moved to the taller crane on the job yesterday. It's not often I am on a modernized crane. I love the spacious cab, the anti-glare coating on the curved window, and specifically the trolley camera! Here's a couple of photos of our concrete pickup point. As an example of how difficult our job can be, I am three hundred feet (sorry for the Imperial - craning in N.A. is just like that sigh...) away from picking up 14,000 lb buckets, ten feet from an active roadway. I have to put the empty buckets down beside buses, cars, pedestrians, cyclists, and people, (sometimes rando joggers actually IN the site) and not hit anything. On a typical afternoon I do this up to a hundred times. #towercrane #mydayjob #ygk https://s3.c.im/media_attachments/files/116/288/911/092/469/615/original/663eb78daa6a2be3.jpg https://s3.c.im/media_attachments/files/116/288/911/142/299/348/original/b8f11e7e4f511bd2.jpg https://s3.c.im/media_attachments/files/116/288/911/145/689/207/original/b451fdff82267e19.jpg npub1synur4w7hjaxekky0pj7zltqmjet03pcmjp2sdzpcqeafslqm89sz706cu pamfer extrordinaire Someday the American flag will be a source of shame like the Confederate flag or the swastika. Possibly outlawed. It will be such a source of trauma for most of the world to see. npub1synur4w7hjaxekky0pj7zltqmjet03pcmjp2sdzpcqeafslqm89sz706cu pamfer extrordinaire @nprofile…3jwj Just wrote them a message. https://www.napacanada.com/en/contact-us npub1synur4w7hjaxekky0pj7zltqmjet03pcmjp2sdzpcqeafslqm89sz706cu pamfer extrordinaire "But her emails" seems so much more laughably a smear job now, considering what they were all sitting on in the GOP and hoping we didn't find out. npub1synur4w7hjaxekky0pj7zltqmjet03pcmjp2sdzpcqeafslqm89sz706cu pamfer extrordinaire @nprofile…fu0r We need to abolish the Security Council. npub1synur4w7hjaxekky0pj7zltqmjet03pcmjp2sdzpcqeafslqm89sz706cu pamfer extrordinaire If they can do it in Venezuela with no consequences, they will do it anywhere. npub1synur4w7hjaxekky0pj7zltqmjet03pcmjp2sdzpcqeafslqm89sz706cu pamfer extrordinaire @nprofile…f0x4 Fascism is institutional misogyny. npub1synur4w7hjaxekky0pj7zltqmjet03pcmjp2sdzpcqeafslqm89sz706cu pamfer extrordinaire @nprofile…k63y @nprofile…naem Constantly checking settings to disable AI..... npub1synur4w7hjaxekky0pj7zltqmjet03pcmjp2sdzpcqeafslqm89sz706cu pamfer extrordinaire @nprofile…mwdy @nprofile…kp4j Can verify all this. I saved my 7 yo from drowning in a pool in Florida, and nearly everyone except my wife and I had no idea until we got him out. npub1synur4w7hjaxekky0pj7zltqmjet03pcmjp2sdzpcqeafslqm89sz706cu pamfer extrordinaire @nprofile…r5mx I guess he skipped over that 'shalt not kill' part. npub1synur4w7hjaxekky0pj7zltqmjet03pcmjp2sdzpcqeafslqm89sz706cu pamfer extrordinaire @nprofile…pye9 This exactly. Wow. I would feel so betrayed. npub1synur4w7hjaxekky0pj7zltqmjet03pcmjp2sdzpcqeafslqm89sz706cu pamfer extrordinaire @nprofile…args I would totally leave it. Part of the character! npub1synur4w7hjaxekky0pj7zltqmjet03pcmjp2sdzpcqeafslqm89sz706cu pamfer extrordinaire @nprofile…sjwm Thank you. Excellent read npub1synur4w7hjaxekky0pj7zltqmjet03pcmjp2sdzpcqeafslqm89sz706cu pamfer extrordinaire More evidence that Canada needs to transition to open-source on all government computers, all levels of government, especially the Dept of Defence. End reliance on US servers and companies. #canpoli #canada #elbowsup Criminal Court: Microsoft's email block a wake-up call for digital sovereignty | heise online https://www.heise.de/en/news/Criminal-Court-Microsoft-s-email-block-a-wake-up-call-for-digital-sovereignty-10387383.html npub1synur4w7hjaxekky0pj7zltqmjet03pcmjp2sdzpcqeafslqm89sz706cu pamfer extrordinaire I went into a Second Cup on College Street in Toronto yesterday, trying to avoid American, (overpriced tbh) Starbucks closer to UofT. Let me just say, the staff was wonderful and funny, the latte was perfect, and the butter croissant was what I've been craving for years. It was not a plastic packaged mass-produced rubbery thing, like Starbucks has become. It was a real croissant. Flaky. Buttery. Excellent. Second cup is Canadian, owned by a company in Quebec. I wish there was still one where I live. We have four Starbucks in my hometown, and I refuse to visit any of them. Of course, we have several home-grown coffee shops, and some are excellent, but on the road it's really hard to find the same kind of place in other cities. npub1synur4w7hjaxekky0pj7zltqmjet03pcmjp2sdzpcqeafslqm89sz706cu pamfer extrordinaire @nprofile…dtk0 ICE are the brownshirts.

Hanging with Kash Patel? GFY Gretzky. Seriously. Keep your chin down because tens of millions of elbows are up. This time you're on the losing side. npub1synur4w7hjaxekky0pj7zltqmjet03pcmjp2sdzpcqeafslqm89sz706cu pamfer extrordinaire Who are these Canadians visiting the US? Are you insane? You could be plucked off the street by men in masks and be in a prison in El Salvador within hours. No recourse. Separated from your children. Denied medication. I am flabbergasted that so many Canadians still visit, like things are somehow normal. npub1synur4w7hjaxekky0pj7zltqmjet03pcmjp2sdzpcqeafslqm89sz706cu pamfer extrordinaire I'm surprised nobody else has thought to call the unloading of Tesla stock the 'great in-cell-off'. npub1synur4w7hjaxekky0pj7zltqmjet03pcmjp2sdzpcqeafslqm89sz706cu pamfer extrordinaire Hm. UK elects Conservatives. Brexit. US elects Trump. Colossal meltdown. An enemy is funding the undermining, and sabotaging of the democracies that stand against it. They flood social media. They own the legacy media. Don't fall for the same BS Canada. Never vote conservative. Never Poili-ever. #canpoli npub1synur4w7hjaxekky0pj7zltqmjet03pcmjp2sdzpcqeafslqm89sz706cu pamfer extrordinaire @nprofile…xul5 Your photos are fantastic. npub1synur4w7hjaxekky0pj7zltqmjet03pcmjp2sdzpcqeafslqm89sz706cu pamfer extrordinaire Danielle Smith and Ben Shapiro discussed Canada electing ‘solid allies’ to Trump at Florida event Canada's National Observer: Climate News https://www.nationalobserver.com/2025/03/27/news/danielle-smith-ben-shapiro-prageru-fundraiser npub1synur4w7hjaxekky0pj7zltqmjet03pcmjp2sdzpcqeafslqm89sz706cu pamfer extrordinaire @nprofile…dc6s My vote in my riding seems a waste, too, but we all go in and vote anyway. :) npub1synur4w7hjaxekky0pj7zltqmjet03pcmjp2sdzpcqeafslqm89sz706cu pamfer extrordinaire @nprofile…7c02 Because he's never had an actual job, and never had to rely on the services. npub1synur4w7hjaxekky0pj7zltqmjet03pcmjp2sdzpcqeafslqm89sz706cu pamfer extrordinaire @nprofile…48vs With you. I agree. No Nazis. They are very calm and rational when they come in, and then they tend to take over every org with their misinformation and rewriting history. What are unions, but tangible action toward inclusive, collective social justice? Being a Nazi, or a Trump supporter just means they are saying what they need to get in to then later cause chaos. npub1synur4w7hjaxekky0pj7zltqmjet03pcmjp2sdzpcqeafslqm89sz706cu pamfer extrordinaire Seems to me Charlie Angus is gearing up for a leadership run for the NDP if they are decimated at the polls. npub1synur4w7hjaxekky0pj7zltqmjet03pcmjp2sdzpcqeafslqm89sz706cu pamfer extrordinaire @nprofile…2gcn That's exactly what we were thinking.... npub1synur4w7hjaxekky0pj7zltqmjet03pcmjp2sdzpcqeafslqm89sz706cu pamfer extrordinaire omg guys. My neighbour just bought a cybertruck. My wife wants to know if it's okay to flip him the bird every time he leaves the driveway, or just once in a while will suffice.... I say every damn time. npub1synur4w7hjaxekky0pj7zltqmjet03pcmjp2sdzpcqeafslqm89sz706cu pamfer extrordinaire #DOGE are the brown shirts. Resist. DOGE gains access to US Institute of Peace after Trump administration overhauls board | CNN Politics https://www.cnn.com/2025/03/17/politics/doge-us-institute-of-peace-trump-administration-overhaul-board/index.html npub1synur4w7hjaxekky0pj7zltqmjet03pcmjp2sdzpcqeafslqm89sz706cu pamfer extrordinaire I have several Conservative friends, and something that amazes me is the way they see everything backwards. Where does that come from? At a time when Canada is rating one of the highest countries in the world for freedom and progress, they say they have never been more ashamed. They talk about freedom and yet all the policies they support take freedom away from others. They are without exception white middle class people with privilege, and yet they feel 'under attack' ... I just can't imagine being trapped in that mindset. It's like opposite day every day for them. Why is it they can believe someone like #PierrePoilievre who spews nothing but lies, when the truth is right there in front of them? Is it something innate in human nature that allows an entire segment of us susceptible? npub1synur4w7hjaxekky0pj7zltqmjet03pcmjp2sdzpcqeafslqm89sz706cu pamfer extrordinaire https://palecek.substack.com/p/its-not-a-trade-war-it-is-a-destabilization npub1synur4w7hjaxekky0pj7zltqmjet03pcmjp2sdzpcqeafslqm89sz706cu pamfer extrordinaire It is dumbfounding that the US is taking a trade war right to the ground with .... checks notes Their best friend and ally. Canada. Not China. Not Russia. Not even India. Canada. Who does this shit? We're going to ruin both economies, and get literally nothing from it that we couldn't have had by just existing in the previous trade agreement. npub1synur4w7hjaxekky0pj7zltqmjet03pcmjp2sdzpcqeafslqm89sz706cu pamfer extrordinaire @nprofile…884k Conservatives trying to trick Canadians into a first term by smearing PhD Liberal leader with slogans from a guy who has never held a job. npub1synur4w7hjaxekky0pj7zltqmjet03pcmjp2sdzpcqeafslqm89sz706cu pamfer extrordinaire @nprofile…dc6s So if #Yukon follows suit and puts a toll at their border, then there is nothing Alberta can do to undermine its fellow Canadians... npub1synur4w7hjaxekky0pj7zltqmjet03pcmjp2sdzpcqeafslqm89sz706cu pamfer extrordinaire It sure would be a shame if everyone on the internet sent [email protected] an email every day outlining what they accomplished, whether federal government employees or not. Today I sent them an email outlining that I wrote several poems about resisting fascism, went to work, ate supper, and had a meeting at the bank (no sensitive information, please!) I'm Canadian. npub1synur4w7hjaxekky0pj7zltqmjet03pcmjp2sdzpcqeafslqm89sz706cu pamfer extrordinaire I don't want to sound like I was ahead of the trend, and thus, cool, y'know, but I hated Gretzky from his Harper supporting days. npub1synur4w7hjaxekky0pj7zltqmjet03pcmjp2sdzpcqeafslqm89sz706cu pamfer extrordinaire @nprofile…2hju currently liking Vivaldi.... npub1synur4w7hjaxekky0pj7zltqmjet03pcmjp2sdzpcqeafslqm89sz706cu pamfer extrordinaire @nprofile…dtk0 This is terrible.
