The longer the line gets without additional redundancy (e.g. other relief lines), the more fragile/unreliable the system can become. We'll see.

Worry not, it's also going to make service on the existing Yonge line worse too.

Every episode of Law & Order in which "the Internet" figures prominently into the plot may as well be set in 1925.

The Toronto Board of Trade's Breaking Gridlock report only"doubles down on car-first policies that make our streets less efficient, less equitable, and less livable."

OP-ED: Breaking Gridlock? More Like Reinforcing It - Spacing Toronto

Toronto doesn’t have a congestion problem — it has a car problem. Yet, the Toronto Region Board of Trade’s Breaking Gridlock report offers more of the same outdated thinking that got us into this mess...

This is really smart. Amazed at the hysteria over the ascendance of a woman entrepreneur who clearly knows how to cover and sell news and who's not afraid to take on a mob. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Not the best takeaway, but I find myself repeating (and laughing at) Lockjaw's "You go to a dance, you make an effort.... you put on makeup!"

Hah, been driving through there for 15 years on the way to visit my parents, BUT got rid of my car a year ago, so haven't been through as often!

They finally closed the southbound right-turn channelized turn lane. Urban for an urbane corner.

I've got a few thoughts on Roofman, which is a true crime shaggy dog film, featuring a fun performance from Channing Tatum. It's not the movie I expected (for the better). brieftake.com/roofman-revi...

Roofman Review - Brief Take

The wacky caper premise of Derek Cianfrance's Roofman comes and goes quickly, opening instead onto something more interesting.

Circling way back to this. I saw this film in Sept 2024 and was struck by the vein of sadness and loneliness it mines. It's almost more powerful than the filmmakers realize (they play it a bit funny with the fake "where are they now" ending, for example).

Don't sell yourself short, Shawn. You also write about public toilets.

A few episodes before this one was built around Ellen Pompeo. Absolute scenes.

Daniel Reynolds @akareynolds.bsky.social · 7d

Just watched an episode of Law & Order in which the evil lawyer is played by Wilson of Home Improvement fame, and filmmaker Kevin Smith makes a cameo as "Tony's Wife's Nephew." What a series.

(If we're thinking of the same situation: the Fire Hall is moving to the south side of Metro Hall, freeing up the land to become a mixed-use development site.)

Maybe...... the road....... shouldn't be........... six lanes wide.

Matt Elliott @graphicmatt.com · 8d

Burnside's point is that maybe the 40 km/h speed limit on Avenue Rd and other streets is too low. Getting a ticket for "going 50 or 51 on Avenue Road that's six lanes wide, seems to be the kind of thing that would get under people's craws," he says.

Gray points out there are schools on Avenue Road.
