it's here!! this is the medium size, which is meant to mimic the 3M aura's fit.

first impressions vs aura:
- material is lighter/less stiff
- goes on tighter but settles comfortably; some extra pressure on cheekbones
- no discernible air gaps
- looks great :)

whether i'll switch full-time is TBD

the tilikum crossing doesn't seem so special once you learn that stockton, california has had car-free multimodal bridges for decades

staggering amount of thought that goes into these subdivisions

ok, i love this album and i'm mad i never tried it in full before. i guess "roundabout" just overshadows the rest of it. but man, this could have been in my library the whole time!

i found this map on the spanish wikipedia page for the guaraní language, but i can't find anything online about guaraní speakers in ottawa. anyone know what that's about?

the oldest city in nebraska lies on a grid of numbered streets, avenues, and… corsos. (corsi?)

what's more, the corsos are interrupted by a diagonal grid of numbered terraces and rues.

they expended all their creativity on this, so the city was named Nebraska City.

disappointing to see a return to these antiquated fare gates on the ontario line project, smh

apparently people don't dress up for 8am lab. then again, i can't think of a better setting for my costume than a city of normal people going about their normal days.

happy halloween!

there's something vaguely australian about this core grid, too. i think it's the angle and the park belt separating it from newer suburbs, most notably seen in adelaide. i half expect the road along the park belt to be called "xyz parade"

definitely an entry in "grids i wish belonged to a big city"
