do you ever get the shoe sadness where you’re putting on your socks and shoes and before you’re done you stare off at nothing, sad, waiting for something in you to be different

@thesteveorlando.bsky.social I don't have any Wanda-related questions (I've only got bandwidth for one universe), but I appreciate the patience you've shown here and have really been loving your work on Shazam, which is in the universe I do read. Keep it up, and a lot of us love what you're doing.

I'm in favor of this because I would love someday for there to be a Highlander project that is good. Great concept that has just never managed to pay off as it should. Plus translating Connery-speak into word balloons would probably be a blast.

I'm kind of bad at picking up patterns, so I just observed that the #F1 website invariably describes dull races like today's as "chaotic". Trying to decide if they're lying or just don't know what that word means.

I'm really mad that every time I go to a movie I have to see that shitty Mountain Dew commercial that posits that a mountain party in 1948 Tennessee would definitely have been an integrated space safe for Black people. Also, that bassline completely sucks and I don't want to hear it any more.

Toronto doesn't need a volcano. We have a heritage register where councillors bulk list hundreds of properties at a time with the stated aim of making the city into a "live museum" (actual councillor quote) instead of letting new people live here.

This report recommends that City Council include 258 properties identified in
Recommendations 1-7 of this report on the City of Toronto's Heritage Register.
The properties are located in the Midtown in Focus planning study area adjoining the
Yonge-Eglinton intersection, and comprise commercial "Main Street" properties located
on both sides of Bayview Avenue, Eglinton Avenue East and West, Mount Pleasant
Road and Yonge Street.

This report represents Phase 1 of a project to
"batch list" all of the properties in the study
area that have been identified for inclusion on
the City's Heritage Register.

Don’t laugh but I like to take pictures of interesting manhole covers & for the past 3 weeks in Japan, Korea, & China I saw some nifty ones, so here’s a lil thread 🧵

Shanghai. It looks like polished copper and it’s the English designed iron camelback truss Waibaidu Bridge over the estuary of the Suzhou Creek near its confluence with the Huangpu River, adjacent to the Bund in central Shanghai. It connects the Huangpu and Hongkou districts and was opened on 20 January 1908

As a fan of revenge novels, I really enjoyed Marlon James’ novel The Disappearers, which feels like a personal quest for revenge among its narrators and a bigger revenge against homophobic Jamaica. (Also the prose is amazing) Glad it got longlisted for the national book award.
