I was amazed watching one of those sports radio shows today on TV at how integrated the gambling was into the broadcast! They were discussing whether something was a good bet or not, what the odds were on both sides of something, at LENGTH.

I'm curious to see if anything new happens on Vaughan Rd. between St. Clair & Oakwood - the lineup outside Hunter Coffee every day suggests some pent-up demand for more...

It's baffling that the City Council of Canada's largest city spends time on this, like they used to with the trees. Why don't these things stay with the community councils?

It is crazy - in grade 10, you have to work backwards from post-secondary entrance requirements to pick your grade 11 courses, meaning you’re deciding your life’s direction at the age of 15 (possibly 16 if you have an early birthday). At least with grade 13 we had another year to fart around.

My takeaway (not new, but happy to see again) is that ranked ballots give more people a chance to get behind a candidate, whether their 1st, 2nd, or 3rd choice. A much better way for people to feel like they belong in a coalition.

Clock change means it’s dark earlier - I say go for it. They’re pretty and give light in the darkness.

My mom lived just west of there for almost 40 years & when it was time to move out of her house to an apartment there were none. It would be great if some of these (wealthy!) people could stay in their beloved neighbourhood, but we need more apartments for that.

I like that one too - it's a clever way to bring together the brand and the Jays (which most do not very well). The rest of my house is pretty sick of that one, too, though.

I feel like they do very few people any favours by having them sing acapella…

Reminds me of the movie 12 Monkeys...

I don’t think he should be invited to do that anymore.

Don't forget 18 lbs of butter and 4 lbs of dry pasta.

It’s pretty sad. I’ve been to 12 and I’m not American.

Enjoying these as I sit in the public library...

I feel like @lanrickbennett.bsky.social might also enjoy them?

Yeah, I got on the website 40 mins before on-sale time and am staring at a spinning wheel. On my phone I'm #222,893 in line. Don't like those odds...

You could put it somewhere hidden where it’s just for you. I mean, we get tattoos primarily for ourselves, but others don’t have to see them, if we don’t want.
