  RE: https://mastodon.social/@trevortombe/116165713464534343 Great budget analysis, both on past and current governments, and grading against their own supposed plans and fiscal rules. It also makes me further question government priorities, as it seems that our real spending per person has really not budged since 2008 (under Ed Stelmach), yet services have deteriorated significantly.

  @AnnieBuddy Pretty sure that gets filed under "sovereign immunity." Wouldn't want any actual accountability.

  @robyn I just move on. These are presumably toots where the privacy settings don't include you, or from an instance that doesn't federate with yours. So I don't think it will change in the future.

  @AnnieBuddy I have been to business school and have a CPA. I've seen friends and coworkers go through the MBA indoctrination program. Most business management is a mix of personalities and values, but there's something special about MBA programs that takes in reasonable people and churns out groupthink automatons who've had their humanity stripped away.

  As an occasional transit user, this morning is the first time I've gotten a battery electric bus. I know there's issues with this specific model (driver comfort and supply chain for replacement parts), but I must say it's very comfortable as a passenger. Having no engine vibration is a huge win, and I'm pretty sure the regenerative brake system encourages better driver braking habits.
