Almon street bike signals continue to spike my blood pressure: Twice in the past week a pickup truck has been stopped at a red, seen a light (shaped like a bicycle) turn green and driven through the intersection.

Wtf, not 6 hours after terrible customer service. @communauto.bsky.social called the driver to move the car, which he did, but their end of the conversation never even hinted at an apology.

I wish Communauto didn’t have a monopoly in Halifax. I like car sharing as a service, but when it fails and then they charge you money for it not working it really feels like a kick in the teeth.

Massive shoutout out to whoever handles the Royal Canadian Air Force’s social media account. They responded to every single comment on their already very solid Trans Day of Remembrance post and they responded like this…

What are the odds their apology for this is just, "oh, you don't like stalking? How were we supposed to know!"

I find the CPL's relationship to Canada incredibly interesting.
- The most obvious and least interesting is Canadian born-and-raised commentators and fans occasionally (but not always) referring to soccer as football, I assume to sound more European and therefore knowledgable.

Such sinuous lines, patience and compassion. Such amazing work by Ed Fairburn that take us on a journey.

I wish people would stop referring to the work of their colleagues as 'magic'.
"Hey, can you work your magic on this?"
"I'm going to send you a file—if you could just do your magic that'd be fantastic"
Labour. Work. Expertise. Research. Training. None of these are cheap, easy, or 'magic'.

Fox News: Brave border patrol agent survives IED attack
Border Patrol agent Lairmore testifies that he was not injured by the sandwich, but he felt the impact through his ballistic vest.
The sandwich came apart and "kind of exploded" on his chest upon impact, he says.
"I could smell the onions and mustard."

Why are so many kids dressed as police this year? I’m not current with children’s tv shows so maybe I’m missing something.
Did anyone else get a bunch of 5yo cops?

Life in my late 30s is not what I would have expected. Spent 20min this morning watching a toilet review video for diy renovations. Walking to a hobby/part time job I’ve been doing since I was 16, listening to Converge’s Jane Doe album, reading about upcoming Christmas album releases.

Fwiw we see a similar trend across all communities, not just sports. Real people, real conversations.

Every local I’ve told I was looking forward to going to Signal Hill has been wildly dismissive. It’s amazing how jaded a people can get about their own geographical treasures. If I could combine Citadel Hill with the Blomidon look off I’d tell everyone always!

Throwback uniforms now
Logo of the Day: Detroit Tigers (1927-28)
This unsettling tiger head was on the front of Detroit's road jersey in 1927, then moved to the back in 1928, before uniforms had numbers. Weird and wonderful. ##Tigers##MLB

If you have a reason to be in the area today, no you don't (unless you live there). Stay out of the area!

The deep frustration when you see someone wants recommendations for scent-free laundry detergent and you can’t share your own special suggestion because they don’t allow strangers to reply because they’re a reasonable human that values their mental health.
That’s what I’m feeling right now.
