An honour to have my IQ questioned by you Mr VP. But your attempts to speak for Christ are false and dangerous. Nowhere does Jesus suggest that love is to be prioritized in concentric circles. His love is universal. 🧵

Myron goes off on the root of all problems in society 🤬😳 “Everything is because of feminism and who pushes feminism…it’s the j*ws”

From Aditya Chakrabortty a few years back.
One of the few things Britain is *actually good at* is universities and knowledge-production. Despite successive years of vandalism from Tories and neoliberalisation of the sector, we still "punch above our weight" – yet these hacks won't be happy until everything is burned down.

@economeager Kindergarten was also completely useless. I’ve literally never needed to know that the cow goes “moo” at my job.

a lot of hay was made over Main but the problems of Hamilton's extremely excessive road system and total lack of responsibility for driving safely are spread out across the city
My city prioritizes cars so much more than people that even inanimate buildings don’t stand a chance. This morning’s victim of car-centric design: The Cannon, my favourite local coffee shop 😢@cityofhamilton @NrinderWard3
