Another city start, trying what I'm thinking of as a "cellular" network of one-way roads and streets. No real name for this one yet.

But the worst part of it is how many people miss out on this absurd privilege for many reasons including violence, systemic barriers, geopolitics, etc. Every individual who does not survive to enjoy the miracle of reality is not just lost to the world, but is someone who loses out on the world.

I could say the worst part of it is that this train has an annoying 24 minute headway or that this Tim Hortons appears to be the slowest in Canada, (continued…)

In an age when one can enter a contraption of many tons of metal which rolls smoothly through the countryside, to a vast plain where many tons of metal are hurled into the air and stay there for hours at a time, just to acquire a drink made with beans grown 4000 km away. (Continued…)

Bringing my school bus back to the lot, I passed (and reported) a car abandoned in the turning lane at Walkley and Russel. Then both my OC Transpo options got stuck behind it. (I got past because I was going straight) Bon weekend lol!

Rushed myself out of McDonald’s because my bus was 3 minutes away. Then it’s GPS signal did a hard right on Belfast, and then an empty bus showed up as I was composing this post. Lol I guess!

Another city on the go! "New Kawartha" An experiment with neighbourhood cells bounded by unzoned one way parking streets, connected by a one way highway loop and many bicycle and pedestrian facilities. Transit is so far served by two tram lines separated from car traffic. This one has potential

In August I was trained by Switzer Carty Transportation to drive a school bus and obtained a Class B license. I’m two weeks into the school year and It feels good so far!

Shipped with a fuel which is shipped through the Strait. Also maybe the plastic in the bottles is affected by oil prices.

The only north-south AAA cycling facility for kilometres. It’s closure and the assignment of Bank as the detour represents a total barrier to all but the most rugged vehicular cyclists. Both Bank and McCarthy need to have proper curb-separated cycling infrastructure installed ASAP.

My peeve are the accounts that “follow” you only to get attention, like there’s no way these accounts are actively paying attention to tens of thousands of other accounts worth of content

@riverwardriley.bsky.social Strange OTrain experience at South Keys just now. Waiting for southbound train. I see it pull into Greenboro in the distance, then it’s lights change from white to red, then it sits. No communications from staff whatsoever for waiting passengers

An amazing member of ours put together this graphic that really encapsulates perfectly the situation on Bank Street. There is only so much space available, and we must use it as efficiently as possible. Parking isn't that. Please sign up to delegate on March 30th in favour of bus lanes!
An OC Transpo #6 bus in a bus lane. Inside of the bus there are multiple people, each with a text showing what they're going to be doing. They say "Grabbing a bite to eat", "Going to Lansdowne", "Getting a haircut", "Bought groceries", and "Can finally fit on the bus". The final one was a user in a wheelchair.

Beside the bus there is a single person in a truck in the regular travel lane. Pointing to him it says "Just driving through". They have a thought bubble coming out from their head saying "That bus lane is going to ruin local business!".

If humanity can figure out how to provide a toilet to astronauts flying around the moon, we can figure out bathrooms for cities on Spaceship Earth. No excuses! Awesome work, Councillor!

Here’s a first look at the proposed Centretown public bathroom, and a breakdown of the downtown public toilet strategy that I had passed unanimously by Finance Committee yesterday. Happy to see momentum building to finally solve a massive problem that our city is currently leaving unaddressed.

If there was a surefire way to pivot 180 from whatever I'm doing now to go to the moon I would do it. In the meantime I plan to do whatever job I get next to the best of my ability. Humanity Must Make Nice Things! Thank you, Artemis II for rekindling the fire in my soul!
