Toronto Bike Share announces an online forum on service expansion today at 2:00PM.
Registrations are open until Nov 21st, however are conveniently already sold out as of 11:15 PM.
Somehow I'm not surprised. I want to love this service but they are just so consistently disappointing.

Love the comment about winter tires. I wonder what portion of car owners own a jack and torque wrench.
Only just booked my tire changeover as Sunday marks the first real cold stretch.

It's been a bit over a year since I had a slice of apple pie from Winkel 43 in Amsterdam, but the cravings are still there.
This was my best stab after asking ChatGPT to review and compile all the various copycats online.
The crust has blended in speculaas cookies. 😬

My favourite plant this year has to be this accidental basil hybrid. Displaying some fierce hybrid vigor (recently pruned Tulsi for scale).
Seedling came up this summer from a planter where I had Genovese and Tulsi last year.

The Steam Deck LCD has a pretty sweet deal right now, obviously more than a 406H but a minor premium given the performance difference.

There's a fundamental shift in culture that needs to happen in Toronto with respect to our pedestrian and cycling infrastructure.
Our own city service vehicles don't even respect it. These park staff were restocking a planter a few meters away, evidently staff can't use hand trucks or carts?

Rest of the household wasn't quite as excited to see a Northern Flicker jumping around the compost bin as I was, so I decided to put it on the internet.
