English

A close-up of a corrugated metal wall with a neon sign that reads "Film Never Die" in large, bold letters. The sign is illuminated and stands out against the textured, industrial surface of the wall. Below the main sign, there is a smaller sticker or label with the same text. The background is slightly blurred, but another sign with partial text "Grain is Good" is visible.

English

A shadow of a tree branch is cast sharply against a brick wall. The shadow creates a striking, abstract pattern, with the branches extending diagonally across the wall. The wall itself is made of uniformly laid bricks, and some greenery is visible at the bottom right corner, suggesting the presence of plants or a garden nearby.

A narrow, dimly lit alleyway in an urban setting. The alley is flanked by old, weathered buildings with visible wear and peeling paint. Overhead, a network of electrical wires and makeshift awnings can be seen. The ground is paved with bricks, some of which appear damp or stained. The alley extends into the distance, creating a sense of depth and leading the eye toward a brighter area at the end.

Imagine the outrage if a 3 million dollar home was to be built and would require letters, public consultations, etc, etc. But yet, when it's 4 families moving in, they would LOVE the opportunity to join a meeting and scream at this idea.

Hi everyone, I'm hoping someone here might have some insight into a zoning question that's
come up in Willowdale.

A three-storey quadplex with a garden suite is currently going up on Betty Ann, and I'm trying
to understand how it moved forward without any public notice, community consultation, or a
zoning meeting.

From what | can tell, nothing was posted, no letters were sent out, and there wasn't any
opportunity for residents to ask questions or give feedback. The permits weren't even p…

Even if we assume that the diagram is structurally correct, the text contains the typical genAI artifacts (mashed-up letters, misspellings, etc.) that one wouldn’t accept in the main text—so it’s simply sloppy. What’s the point!?

Hantaviruses, which belong to the Bunyavirales order, replicate and transcribe their genome in the cytoplasm of infected cells. So Hantavirus already won’t enter the nucleus, and Ivermectin, an anti-parasite substance, won’t do much of anything to a virus.
“…orthomyxoviruses replicate and transcribe their genome within the cell nucleus, whereas bunyavirus genome replication and transcription occur in the cytoplasm.”

screenshot of a post by Mary Talley Bowden MD 

Red letters: False Information

Hantavirus is a RNA virus, and ivermectin should work against it. 

Ivermectin blocks RNA viruses from entering the nucleus, inhibits viral replication, disrupts integrity of the viral membrane and can prevent viral replication.
