Toronto wow and flutter
I have, through this snow event, obsessively kept the cleanest, widest & driest sidewalk in the neighbourhood.
Today I was clearing ice from the gutter, tossing chunks onto the clear asphalt to melt. Some passerby chastised me: "That's illegal, you know..."
Would it qualify as murder?

Brother in Nice sent through this street-parked new Cinq. My take? While this car is beautiful (even the wheel covers), that tiny rear window is ass.

As I walk through the neighbourhood, I am judging every resident based on whether or not they have shovelled the sidewalk out front.
If you have done it, you are a mensch. You are pulling your weight.
If you haven't bothered, you are not my kind of people.

A veteran tradesman once told me that the choice of / state of truck someone brings to the job site generally tells you everything you need to know about the person.
THIS guy probably pays attention to the details.

every time i see a white guy in their fifties radicalized by the twitter algorithm into racism and extremism i think about how it's a total failure of the youtube algorithm to instead radicalize him into home brewing, elaborate A/V setups, or DIY solar

A feast for the eyes, if you like the point where midcentury modern starts tipping into brutalism, and battered Renaults (I see you too, Corolla) with taxi paint schemes.

Taken 9 years ago today. While we're generally huge fans of #beltlinestripes, this just isn't doing it for us. Starts nice & high on the front fender but finishes too low on the rear. Tricky. 5/10
