I love to look at the public art in and around Edmonton. My favourite is probably "High Jinx" by artist Paul Freeman. The deer sculptures are on top of both the Northbound and Southbound Avonmore LRT station shelter roofs. More info: www.edmontonarts.ca/public-art/h...

It really seems like every UCP policy solves an imaginary problem while also creating several real ones. To them, freedom means taking choice away from everyone else to impose their world view, whether you like it or not.

"Infinite patience" is not a quality ingredient for a good education, nor is it something we should continue to extend to the education "revolutions" of Sal Khan. biblioracle.substack.com/publish/post...

Books and just... the written word in general... is awesome! Here are my thoughts and opinions, communicated to you, without my being there. What a great human invention! While on the subject, support your public libraries. And your academic libraries. You know what, just libraries in general.

Just read this article and watched the video inside the article. One of the complaints from a business owner is that a dedicated bus lane that already exists has cut the amount of sales she gets because people don't feel safe walking in the neighbourhood she's located in and there's less parking.

Residents and businesses in Edmonton’s Chinatown told city council’s urban planning committee on Monday that they are worried about how bus rapid transit routes might be implemented.

OK. I'm gonna do something here with this discourse, and it's not ~really~ about cars. It's about the mindset of "I deserve this" and how that preempts the logic parts of the brain in ways which can hurt you. Here's a crotchety old man thread: (1/10)

Listening to some nice Jazz, drinking non-alcoholic beer, and building Ikea furniture. Nice day so far.

Currently sick. On ads for cold medicine, they make it look like taking it will make you feel normal and full of energy, but in reality, you just feel less shitty, though very much still shitty.

What it feels like reading news about the war in Iran: OIL PRICES ARE UP! THE MARKET IS GOING CRAZY! WHAT DOES IT MEAN FOR OUR ECONOMY! SHOULD YOU INVEST IN OTHER THINGS!? WILL A HIGHER OIL BARREL PRICE BE BENEFICIAL FOR ALBERTA? People are dying. We seemingly care more about oil than human lives.

Read this article in the Edmonton Journal where business owners in Edmonton's Chinatown are saying they would prefer the city not build a bus lane on 101st. Why? Because it would remove parking that is just so impossible to find! You know what!? Just for fun, lets go on google maps!

A strong statement of resistance to the relentless marketing of "AI" in education spaces. I encourage all educators to have a look and consider signing on: openletter.earth/an-open-lett...

Whenever I see the letter t used as a variable inside a mathematics textbook question I cry a little inside. Let's hope I won't change some + signs into t and vice versa when I work on the question!

Looks like today is going to be a beautiful sunny day! Should probably clean my bike's chain. I've really been neglecting to do that. Oops...

Mother nature has decided to change things up it seems. Lately we've had a lot of later afternoon thunderstorms but this morning I wake up to the sound of thunder. Oh well! It's good to change things up I suppose.

University libraries during the summer are amazing. Go on any floor (not just the quiet ones) and it is soooo quiet! Perfect place to do some reading, studying, or work

Love that the new Canadian Blood Services building in Edmonton is located right next to an Edmonton Public Library branch. Very convenient!

Was on the bus #4 on Whyte Ave going back home and looking at the buildings I thought to myself "those older brick building are so nice. They have a beauty that I think more modern buildings lack."

Thanks to groups like @pathsforpeople.bsky.social, @bikeedmonton.bsky.social, @yegbike.bsky.social & @bikecalgary.bsky.social for standing up for Alberta cyclists whose bike lanes are under threat. Something we #BikeTO folks are all too familiar with Bill 212. #YYCbike #YEGbike #ONpoli #ABpoli

Would like to learn more about various art forms. Went to the Art Gallery of Alberta to look at some of their exhibits. It was fun though I'm sure I would have appreciated the artworks more if I had more knowledge of the arts and artists on display. Did get to see and learn what linocuts are.

New to BlueSky and I've never really used a similar website to post things so we'll see how this goes. May or may not post frequently.
