Worth a watch if you’re looking to learn more about the impacts of bike lanes.
WATCH: Seriously, if you’re following ANY bike-lane debate, you HAVE TO WATCH this news story. You actually can’t make this up. Ford claims without evidence that bike-lanes are bad for small business, and THE ACTUAL BUSINESS ASSOCIATION obliterates him with data.

Safe bike-lanes mean business.
Annex businesses tell Ford to back off Bloor bike lanes
Stores in the Annex say the Bloor bike lanes have been a big boost to business. As Michelle Mackey reports, the neighborhood's BIA wants the province to back off its new bill that could see the lanes ...

Hey, #gojays fans. Show our neighbours south of the border your love and generosity. They sure could use some donations to their food banks. They’re about to go through some stuff. And I’m not talking about losing the #worldseries

Poor trick or treaters tomorrow night. My house will be dark while I watch the game. There is a street nearby that goes all out (all the kids go there, and I get very few) and takes candy donations. So I did that. #gojays #worldseries

It’s after 11pm on the west coast and we are three hours past our bed time. For the love of god, please can we go to bed? #worldseries

I’ve had a really big day. A 750m swim, a feast of sushi, a Costco visit, a four hour emergency vet visit, 350km of driving and now this gd #worldseries game. Will this day ever end?

I don’t usually like variegated yarn, but this pattern likes it. it’s a series of increases and decreases that makes a luxurious and thick three dimensional stockinette style fabric #Knitsky #Knitting

Could this be the straw? The thing that awakens the slumbering masses to the very real threat of dictatorship? The image that represents a tearing down of all that America was supposed to be? Not the years of racist, sexist, fascist displays of inhumanity - but a bulldozing of a building?

I’m here to share that after almost three years of being a #widow, the big anniversaries seem gentler. Tomorrow is my 26th wedding anniversary, and 35 years since we became a couple. My #grief remains, but my memories of these important dates bring both smiles and tears.

When #grief starts to transform you, you start to understand that everything that came before your loss was actually shaping who you become after your loss.
#Grief update. It’s been 5 months, 5 days, 17 hours, 14 minutes since my wife Olga passed away.

It's less like a ton of bricks now and more like a constant flock of seagulls overhead: Very annoying, hard to ignore, but mostly out of the way — except every now and then one of them shits on you. 🔻

As a west coaster, either team would have been a win for me. I do have a soft spot for the #BlueJays and am super happy there is going to be a Canadian team in the #WorldSeries. Good job #Mariners, you were tough and deserved the chance to play the #ALCS. #GoJays!

I tuned into TV cable news tonight here in Western Canada. It has been years since I watched cable news. I have a fucking degree in broadcast journalism. What the actual fuck is going on? JOURNALISM IS TRULY DEAD. I hate this.

Monday, September 29th marks 1000 days since my husband died. I don’t know how or why I feel the need to note this. I guess it’s a clean number that feels like it should signify something … if only to me. #widow #grief

Hey my Bluesky peeps! Follow my friend and her cat’s antics! I promise you will love the squee! #catsofbluesky
To celebrate black cat day.... The closest I have is Lola... she is a black smoke and works overtime at the biscuit factory. And most recently she has started preparing for her career as a show girl.

Retirement Day 19: I slept till 9:30. I had to frog two whole rounds of crochet on the blanket I am working on because I forgot to turn my work. I changed the bedding. My house is clean. I picked a tomato. My mom made me dinner. #retirement #crochet
