The rule that the "left" learned too late in Canada is your first and only ask to maintain a minority govt is election reform to obliterate first past the post and introduce proportional representation. #CanadaVotes
Why can’t AI do symmetry?!
The horns are lopsided. The pillars are offset.
If there’s one thing we learned from drawing that S over and over again on our grade 8 binders, it’s that symmetry matters!!
(But yes, Kamala looks badass)

Hey @SiddallJoe and @benshulman7, you guys were talking about the #BlueJays base-stealing efficiency yesterday. There’s an expression in poker: if none of your bluffs are getting called, you’re not bluffing enough. Should the Jays be more aggressive?

Pulling for the stellar team at @RevueCinema- their staff, their programmers, and their devoted audience- all of which are a vital part of Toronto moviegoing ❤️
Vogelbach caught in a rundown looked like one of the Time Bandits trying to dodge Evil’s laser blasts.

Roger Morier and Jonathan Schmidt of Community Bikeways argue that road safety cannot be treated like a candidate in a popularity contest. spacing.ca/toronto/2024/03/2…

Now we know why this government fought the release of the Science Centre business case for eight long months...
The Conservatives are playing a sneaky shell game here.

"Aging in place" doesn't have to mean in the same large, mostly empty home. We need condos and rental apartments in or adjacent to old neighbourhoods so older folks can downsize down the street, with the same shops, restaurants, and parks. But NIMBYs fight these tooth and nail.
Lots of seniors are 'overhoused' but a major reason that I and others I know have chosen not to downsize from a house is that the condo and rental-apartment markets don't offer anything competitive in terms of desirable locations and value for money. thestar.com/business/more-se…

The Musical Box is so much fun. With or without chemical assistance.
To see the Musical Box show as a fan of Old Genesis is to enter into a contract with the band. The band members will pretend to be Genesis and you will pretend to believe them, says Dafna Izenberg.

There a petition floating around that's trying to make Bloor street more dangerous. This one advocates to make Dundas safer. Let's choose safety.
