"Ripping out these protected bike lanes against the will of Toronto city council is a colossal waste of $48 million. The province’s own experts know it will not ease traffic congestion, it will put people’s lives at risk…” One of the stupidest things I’ve ever seen any politician do to any city.

Ontario will begin removing bike lanes from a stretch on Bloor Street W. in Etobicoke on Tuesday, the Ministry of Transportation says.

You'd think Home Depot could find a ladder and some orange paint somewhere.

My senior relative in a smaller town would get her Covid shot now but the pharmacies just shrug and say they never know when they'll get it in. They get shipments randomly, it seems. (This is Shoppers, not some small, independent store.)

Today's 🥏 round at Woodbine featured live saxophone music. Nice!
A lone figure stands in a park pavilion, facing an empty field. His back is to us but he was playing some nice mellow saxophone.

A glorious day for #discgolf. I played the Woodbine course for the first time and enjoyed it despite the stiff winds. Fortunately I was able to reach that treed disc with no difficulty.

It's a sunny day and the grass is green, but a few trees are showing signs of fall colour.Bright pink disc resting overhead in a pine tree.

I turned around and was startled to see a bird on the ground near me. I looked closer.
What appears to be a bird sitting on the ground looking at you.A closer look reveals a grey stone with something white and a bit of orange leaf stuck on it, making it resemble a bird.

I know I always thought so. Bonus: I once heard a classical radio DJ say he was careful when pronouncing Respighi's name because he had someone call up and request some of that music by Miss Piggy.

Made me think of this.
A cartoon by Nathan W. Pyle showing two anthropomorphic eagles relaxing in easy chairs. One reads the paper while the other sips tea. "Do you think the owl is a predator?" "Of course not, he's never bothered me." "Exactly." - sips tea - "No idea what Mr. Mouse was going on about."
