Has anyone found solutions for surviving social noise? I'm talking about art openings or restaurants, spaces with many voices running at full volume and bouncing off the reflective walls like an autitory torture trampoline Earplugs don't cut it, they mute everyone equally

What's your fav voice transcription software/service? considerations: privacy policy (do they have one? Are they selling data?) price (I love a flat rate over a subscription), live transcription (nice!) english and french language support

I've been taking my morning coffee outside. Snowpants on, perched on a broken plastic adirondack chair for a few minutes. I get this feeling that I've missed for years. It was one of the hardest things about quitting smoking, years ago. Spending time alone with the morning, every morning.

We're so happy to reveal our poster for 2025, created by Caitlin Russell. A lovely overview of Toronto, offering a glimpse into the playful events that take place during Toronto Games Week! We're looking forward to celebrating warmer times in June with you all 🥰 #TGW2025

Love the description "an upsetting frogger" aftermath.site/loser-lane

Last week I made a game about how scary it is to bike without bike lanes. Then on Saturday, with the unbelievable irony of life, I was biking on a street without a bike lane and something bad happened. www.debaser.ca/news/loser-l...

OMG play this on your phone tonight I can’t pass 60 seconds 😭

Well, that was stressful

This is what biking is like in so many places I’ve lived. Boston. San Antonio. New Orleans. Large parts of Chambana. I rode basically this home today, including where I HAD a bike lane but a Lexus SUV gunned their engine into it to pass a turning car and almost hit me.

Brilliant bike lane removal protest game out of Toronto. Strong 'The Oregon Trail' aesthetic but instead of "You have died of dysentery" you die of infrastructure disinvestment.

I made a tiny protest game about the terrifying reality of biking in Toronto without bike lanes marieflanagan.com/loserlane
