I was at this meeting and the behaviour there was appalling. The level of racism, conspiracy promotion, fear-mongering, and selfishness was disheartening to witness. https://www.timescolonist.com/opinion/comment-save-our-saanich-encourages-mob-behaviour-that-silences-voices-1147661713 Nov 2025 17:42 +0000at://did:plc:a2ql2s4befa2g4vf3fkmfdtd/app.bsky.feed.post/3m5jpo6qvrs2hhttps://bsky.app/profile/pspindloe.bsky.social/post/3lveye3zvkk26Spreadsheets are one of the love languages.02 Aug 2025 01:13 +0000at://did:plc:a2ql2s4befa2g4vf3fkmfdtd/app.bsky.feed.post/3lveye3zvkk26https://bsky.app/profile/pspindloe.bsky.social/post/3lun563teuk25I was very impressed with the Museum of Civilization in Quebec City for tackling the topic of crowd behaviour, both physical crowds (think arena events or public transit) but also digital crowds and the important topics of media literacy, conspiracy theories, and their effects on society.23 Jul 2025 13:35 +0000at://did:plc:a2ql2s4befa2g4vf3fkmfdtd/app.bsky.feed.post/3lun563teuk25https://bsky.app/profile/pspindloe.bsky.social/post/3lufq67zg7k2cIn a recent visit to Montreal I saw this starting to happen too, although at a slower pace. They’re building continuously rather than fighting tooth and nail to do one project and then doing nothing for months or years and then trying again.

Most are accessible by bike with a bit of ambition (and could be much more accessible with political will).
