@brian_gettler@mas.toNever forget, #Toronto, you're not stuck in traffic because there are too many damn cars in this city. And this week you're not stuck because of record snowfall clogging roads. (As an aside, if you're complaining about snow on the roads, have you had a look at our sidewalks recently?) No, you're sitting there like a fool because of bike lanes.
@teledyn@mstdn.caAs bad as it is out there, and it's quite nice if you're in no hurry, #Toronto basically dodged a bullet with this monster.

@chris@mstdn.chrisalemany.caSome USA Olympic Hockey players playing for Canadian teams are in for a rough ride... and if you know enough about hockey and US players, you'll be able to guess who's on top of the shit list.

“We know how this story ends,” said the writer Jennifer Weiner. “The male athletes are flying private, back to their seven-figure NHL paycheques and a White House rolling out the red carpet. The women are flying coach, back to the grind, to a league that barely pays them to play. The men, celebrated. The women, mocked.”
I'm glad the #Canucks traded Hughes, if only because it would have been extremely awkward, and possibly downright hostile.

@avalon@jazztodon.comToday I learned very sad news: legendary #Toronto bassoonist #jeffBurke has left the planet. Jeff lived as a monk in service of the goddess Music, in all her forms and genres. When #SunRa came to town, he ask…
@teledyn@mstdn.caThe City of Toronto’s Skate Lending Library, in partnership with Desjardins Financial Group, brings free ice skates and helmet rentals to outdoor rinks in Toronto. Whether you’re taking your first glide on the ice or a seasoned professional, we’re aiming to make skating accessible to all.

@jerome@jasette.facil.servicesSnow day when living on an elevated floor in a condo is wonderful.
Everything is white, hardly any car in sight, it's like the city is closing for the day. Feels very peaceful

@teledyn@mstdn.ca#Toronto #TTC should try this, would be cheap, could employ actors, no chance of violent escalation, and best of all would be witnessing that moment when a great flurry of Batmans leave the shop to begin their shift!
C-mon @… even just a trial run?

@teledyn@mstdn.caI have no idea how this film came to be called
H.G. Wells' The Shape of Things to Come but I will say how nice it was to see the old #Toronto #OntarioPlace as it was and especially the #BuckminsterFuller designed but sadly overbuilt (bucky said) dome, and, well, maybe I'd rather remember it destroyed by an evil megalomaniacal technocrat. #monsterdon material for sure
