Born at 325ppm. Despite the cute sign in my profile picture we can choose not to be doomed. It will take many people making that choice.
I was very impressed with the Museum of Civilization in Quebec City for tackling the topic of crowd behaviour, both physical crowds (think arena events or public transit) but also digital crowds and the important topics of media literacy, conspiracy theories, and their effects on society.

I’m a big fan of the Bike Valet in Victoria so it was great to see one at Granville Island in Vancouver this weekend. Being able to enjoy a meal or shopping without worrying about your bike is great on so many levels. #yyjbike

There are so many cool things to visit around Victoria. Most are accessible by bike with a bit of ambition (and could be much more accessible with political will). Today it was Shirley Delicious and the Sheringham Point Lighthouse. #yyjbike

And it was packed later on. I heard staff say they had run out of room. That’s hundreds of people who had a great option to get downtown without worrying about traffic, road closures, or parking. A nice easy spin home was a good recovery strategy too.

Hard to beat getting a nice warm up for the Victoria 10k (TC 10k) on the bike and being able have secure valet parking right at the start. #yyjbike

A bike with a karaoke machine, screen for lyrics, remote mikes, smoke machine and BBQ? Heck yes when @philbug.bsky.social wants to celebrate his birthday in style! Tourists and locals were treated to hits such as Pink Pony, Let it Go, The Bad Touch, and others as we rolled through town. #yyjbike

Agreed! Here’s a random picture of a cool set of Little Free Libraries from some exploring in Colwood. Riding all the streets in your area is a great way to find things like this.

Canada tried high-speed rail in 1968 but gave up in the face of challenges. France persevered through challenges (including gas turbines). Japan persevered. We gave up. Imagine where we could be today! 19 hours on trains today has me lamenting that missed opportunity! #trains #HSR

I took a little detour on my way to visit family in Ontario and got to attend The War on Cars and City Nerd’s event in NY. Live events are such an important complement to the online world!

Any thoughts on these nut covers?
