"I'll just walk in the direction of travel & check the app whenever I pass a stop" often results in arriving on foot.
Let's see.
The 504D streetcar being replaced by a bus. Nowhere in site. Can walk up to 505 Dundas and hope that is on time, or take any bus or streetcar that happens to come one stop across the DVP and walk 35 minutes (and be 10 minutes late.
The TTC is basically semi-organized hitchhiking.

How To Talk To Your Family About Whether There Is A Shapeshifting Alien Monstrosity Among Us Thanksgiving
No. The Thing is a movie about a bunch of people who all distrust and hate each other trapped in one building as the tension between them slowly builds until it reaches a breaking point. It's a Thanksgiving movie.
Should John Carpenter's THE THING be officially classified as a Christmas movie? Let your voice be heard!

There is a segment of Toronto residents — maybe not large, but certainly vocal — who look on this description with fond longing.
You can find them easily at any public comment, railing against coffee shops, parks, and anything else that might disturb their vision of suburbia in the city.

It's a mystery as to how Toronto ever got its reputation of being opposed to fun
Also on the chopping block from Toronto's parks bylaw: the longstanding rule against using “profane language” in parks. Also you will now be allowed to be boisterous, but not riotous.

"A stunning abstract nude portrait"
I'm sorry, but two of those three descriptive words are incorrect.
It definitely is nude though. I'll give them that.

I regret to inform you there is more Olivia Newzzi: the print VF will feature a nude portrait by artist Isabelle Brourman that is also destined for Art Basel Miami Beach. Notably, its inclusion appears be a surprise to VF staff. VF looking worse and worse here. www.artnews.com/art-news/new...

There are very few films I've seen six times. By after like the 2nd or 3rd watch I start noticing all the little flaws & they start bothering me.
But, I guess these two probably are the answers.

This is more outrageous when you consider the details. Barrhaven residents are just asking for their transfers to be valid for long enough for them to commute to work, presumably downtown, without paying twice. They're not even asking for their *30km* commute to take *less than 2 hours by transit*.

I should really write about this in more length but I have been increasingly bummed out by people's reactions to robotaxis, like "well, at least they're safer than human drivers". Even if that were true (it's, at best, complicated) it's such an impoverished view of what is possible. (cont'd) /
incidentally, this is precisely what everybody said would happen with robotaxis, huge numbers of empty vehicles clogging up streets.

Possibly queued for a Billie Eilish show at Chase Center ~half mile away.
The light rail train on 4th seen passing in front of this roboherd has more passenger capacity than all of them combined.

Years ago, back on the other place, I got in an argument with someone who claimed that robotaxis would both remove the need for private vehicles as well as reduce the number of cars on the road along with the infrastructure needed to support those numbers
