Colour blindness: a thread. I’m colour blind and I’ve noticed that people have trouble comprehending what that means. Here are some photos to help you see the world the way I do.

For five years, I have been covering what is unquestionably the biggest criminal justice scandal in American history.
Today it ended when the most corrupt cop in history took his life.
But it's not over.
A thread.

@_llebrun There's an embassy near there that may have been concerned.

@3YearLetterman @FoodLion @GDeLaurentiis @BigLots @terrellowens @LilKim @BarbaraBoxer @MikeTyson @longjohnsilvers @pepboysauto @Whitesnake I should know better than to correct your posts, but readers might be interested that she was 96 when she died.

🚨 BRAKING 🚨
Former First Lady Ethel “Lady Bird” Kennedy has died at the age of 106.
Married to JFK and the mother of presidential nominee RFK Jr, Lady Bird was at the center of American politics and power for nearly a century and led the fight against drugs with her “Just Say No” campaign
She will be missed

@davidreevely Here's what the pedestrian bridge from Nepean Point to Major's Hill Park was supposed to look like vs the reality.
English
More seriously, the one whose design (1) acknowledges the structure it would replace and (2) doesn't look just like every single other bridge built in the last 20 years is decent: x.com/NCC_CCN/status…
National Capital Commission@NCC_CCN
Echo is a reinterpretation of the existing Alexandra Bridge. It combines references to the truss structure of the current bridge and a distinctive silhouette.
English
@davidreevely But you know it won't look like that. The curves will be squared, the finish will be unfinished concrete. One more ugly cement road.
If they took cars off the bridge, the Alexandra could last another 100 years as is.

@stphnmaher Haven't the Conservatives long supported deregulation/open market in the telecom industry? Poilievre takes a lot of his cues from Americans who want easier access to our markets.
English
I would like someone please to write a smart article that I can read about what is going on with Poilievre and Bell. This kind of messaging against a specific company seems unusual for an opposition party.
Pierre Poilievre@PierrePoilievre
How does the CEO of Bell get $13 million the year before his company gets downgraded to one level above junk bond status? This is the crony capitalism of the Trudeau’s state-run economy. Politicians protect big oligopolies against competition and those oligopolies use their media arms to give politicians glowing coverage. montrealgazette.com/news/local-new…

@bpellerin They might as well have just brought back Michael Ignatieff.

@sfyro I ran by your lovely garden this morning! And By-law is probably talking about the median strip - between the road and the sidewalk - which you're responsible for maintaining.
English
Soooo...@OttawaBylaw has served me with a complaint that I need to cut my grass by Sunday 02 September 2024. Slight Problem:
✨I don't have any grass (see 📸s)✨
I left a message and made multiple calls...nothing. Is someone pranking me? Does my garden suck? What am I missing?

I'll be letting my provincial colleagues know that we still want #AccountabilityNow for Councillors who abuse staff and misuse their offices.

NEW: The Ford government was ‘days away’ from tabling a bill for a municipal code of conduct in 2021 that would have allowed for the removal of sitting councillors. An exclusive from @isaaccallan on what’s next. globalnews.ca/news/10699288/… #onpoli

@davidreevely Whatever happened to this person/position? What have they been doing? Does anyone know?

It's to be led by Sean Webster, a PC candidate in Kanata-Carleton, government-relations person and former Shoppers Drug Mart executive.

What's everyone's favorite music for cranking through intense writing projects? Background "focus" music isn't cutting it, and I'm not feeling my usual movie soundtracks for some reason.

@matcha181 @laine_johnson1 @SamHersh01 @HorizonOttawa What a bizarre, false accusation and particularly one coming from a Toronto resident! Would you like to back up your claim with receipts?
Because I can: statement_w8_laine_johnson_en.pdf (ottawa.ca)

@laine_johnson1 Anything to say about the donation you accepted from @SamHersh01 and @HorizonOttawa ?

Like many residents, I was surprised by OC Transpo's announcement that they will reduce Line 1 LRT operating frequency to every 10 minutes. It's a decision that I have many questions about.

@DerrickSimpson_ In addition to the expected walkers, runners, and cyclists, I saw people picnicking on the grass; reading under the trees, playing games - it's a whole new QED! Cars should be banned permanently. @NCC_CCN

@RailFansCanada @OC_Transpo This is fun, but why is there a 2 minute countdown at the beginning?
