too many stupid people have money; that's why I'm launching protein cigarettes

Public transit as art. More I wonder around the old city and its many laneways the more streetcar garage murals I find. This city icon is truly beloved by city dwellers and despised by suburban drivers. #LanewayTO #BlueSkyArtShow #EastCoastKin #UrbanGaze #Toronto #Roncy #Roncesvalles #AlleywayTO

An April 21 Pride night game for the Toronto Sceptres turned into an unforgettable moment when a couple got engaged in front of a roaring crowd.

Still laughing about this.

Team, what do we call this container?

The average American has three friends.

did you know i am doing a dissertation on workplace leave use among full-time workers in the US who have experienced miscarriage? well now you do! and if you think you may be eligible, you can take a screener survey at go.uic.edu/leavestudy or scan the QR code. #reprosky #healthpolicy #miscarriage

Canvas is down, ye say? Aye lad hearken to me and I'll tell thee of a time when a man might say canvas was down! When the leviathan booms his bulk upon ye an' thy splintered masts surrender their sails to the foaming, merciless drink!! then, lad, ye say might say with some authority that can (1/135)

Remarkable installation by Tuan Andrew Nguyen on the High Line in NYC: a reproduction of one of the standing Buddhas of Bamiyan (as it looked at the time of its destruction in 2001), furnished with shiny steel hands cast from melted-down artillery shells found in Afghanistan.

I really like Royce Lewis. (I also really like ice cream.)

Today's Jane's Walk was in Little Italy, and was about the history of Italian migration to Toronto and otherwise. It was interesting but the thing that really hit me was when they said that the street we were about to walk down was slated to be the path of a freeway, destroying the neighborhood +

Minneapolis is the best place in the world. Spending my expat afternoon liking all the MayDay posts, but next year I'll make it back for it.

Hot.

Aquarium & CN Tower views while waiting for the train. So pretty at night!

Did I dig out the gold leaf to faux-kintsugi the repair to my I Am Not A Paper Cup? (www.vat19.com/item/i-am-no...) Of course I did. (It's double walled, the glue seam won't come in contact with hot liquid.)

This dog was considerably less interested in hearing about neighborhood retail than the human attendees of @anotherglassbox.bsky.social's Corner Store Jane's Walk.

Fuel for this morning's walk.

Lyme is terrible. Fuck these people forever.

First Jane's walk of the weekend was with the beardedprof416 about observing your environment, street art, stickers, and participating in life, really.

I have picked out 3 walks for Jane's walk weekend but if it was a little nicer I'd probably skeeve off work today and do a couple more.

“This landmark 40-year study from Marseille offers compelling evidence that Posidonia oceanica meadows can achieve near-full recovery once anthropogenic pressures are decisively removed.”

The other thing here is the assumption of singleness. You think you're going to come home and watch yourself date Marilyn Monroe sitting on the couch with your spouse/significant other?

Okay I’m in.

What are we doing Canada?

If this is legit then all the energy modelling, scenarios and projections you have seen are wrong. electrek.co/2026/04/27/c...

Found out that there's a shave ice place on Spadina open until 4 AM so that's the next few years of hot flashes sorted.

thinkin about it

If a coffeeshop wants to go buy discount candy after Easter and make a featured latte with it, who am I to decline?

Let's talk about *how we can know* that crows understand geometry. 🧪 The study from Univ. of Tübingen faculty on two male carrion crows (Corvus corone) trained to select "outliers" from a set of shapes in exchange for a food reward. The set member that doesn't "belong" is called the "intruder".

I don't understand fruit on the bottom yogurt, particularly in non-single serve sizes. I want fruit in every bite. Homogenize that shit.

What a coincidence! My 90s riot grrrl band was called The Peckish Badger Incident!

[To another adult holding an ice cream cone] Where did you get that?

I for one look forward to the inevitable death of social media.

Jump scare of opening your camera app to take a picture of your lunch and it's on front facing.

Yes, Swiss scientist Fritz Zwicky coined the term “dark matter” which is impressive, but he also coined the term “spherical bastard” to describe people who are bastards no matter which way you look at them, and I think that should be celebrated more.

We’re getting a whole lot more light in our apartment at sunset, thanks to the newly-installed glass on the Pinnacle tower or, as Darcy’s calling it, the Fucking Eye of Sauron 😡

I feel judged.

How much is that

Found out we don't have the right kind of screwdriver head to remove the kickplate under the dishwasher by way of dropping an unopened glass bottle of vinegar on the ceramic tile floor in front of it.

Someday, with luck and hard work, she will have a name too.

Burnt eggplant pickle on hummus for breakfast!

If I can see my pulse in my ankle does that mean I've had too much coffee?
