One flew into my bike helmet and stung me approximately 4 times yesterday. I’d never had a wasp sting before and holy hell, it was awful.

The mosquitos may have died but the wasps are ubiquitous and extra angry.

That’s the west end spirit.

Better send a survey.

It’s actually a zombie survey that keeps coming back from the dead. But even zombies don’t want their faces on these internets these days.

Every teen out tonight is a teen not glued to a screen tonight. We should celebrate and encourage kids of all ages (and grown ups!) to get out of the house and enjoy some IRL stuff.

I was just about to say, that’s all the major connectors of the west end. There’s also Howard and Jordan, which I ride in the road but it’s a bit terrifying.

Kid’s soccer game is at Witter this weekend so you’ll catch us biking on the Duke St. sidewalks. Car is not an option for us.

We picking a day for this new annual tradition or what are we waiting for.

I know we call them bike lanes, but the more I’m in “bike lanes” I realize they’re “everything but motor vehicle lanes.” On protected bike lanes/multiuse paths in this city I regularly see people on scooters, in wheelchairs, in strollers, and on bikes of all kinds. They’re everyone lanes.

The soggy bottoms are part of the British colonial charm I guess.

I do it for the love of the game but do dream of a way I could get paid for this.

On the other hand, I’ve now gotten 3 postcards addressed to my eldest bonus kid reminding him to vote, and he was only registered here one year, and has been registered properly in another state for 5 years now. But it’s the thought that counts.

Add them all to a tab group, which gets automatically saved, and then close that thing, my dear.

Not only is staff time not free, but the more time they spend on engagement, the less time they’re doing design, responding to public inquiries, etc.

My bad, I guess, for thinking that the people who would live in those buildings are also among those “most impacted.”

That is a mailer that will get you so many votes.

“Is it reversible (without major expense)?”

“Yes.”
