The Howard Park Loop had washrooms for TTC operators but not the public. We should change that.

Sometimes technology is amazing. I'm out of town, with a courier that needs a paper release if you aren't there to sign. VPN to home gateway, send form to printer, family tapes it to the door. Problem solved.

Many downed limbs on silver maples on Shaw St. If urban forestry hadn’t taken down some of the trees earlier, damage would be much worse

On my way to North York to get a replacement part for my dryer. Opening the case revealed a shredded drive belt. It’s a 13 year old model, so not bad. I appreciate that I only needed to use one bit to disassemble it so far. Main board has a Samsung logo on it 🤔 #RightToRepair

Heartbeat hot sauce’s dill pickle Serrano sauce is the closest I’ve found to the mild yellow bird Serrano sauce that is available locally. More tang than heat, delicious.

"Housing delayed is housing denied" isn't just a saying. There are carrying costs associated with delays. Non-profits don't have a lot of room in their budgets. So affordable units get reduced. If we're asking for more consultation, let's tell the public the price tag. In this case, $9 million.

“That building cost us $9 million more than it would have originally, because it took so long to get a development permit,” says Greenwood-Lee. “What that meant was we had less deeply affordable units.”

Community land trusts are to housing what food banks are to hunger. They partially address an acute local shortage but do little to change the larger systems that create the scarcity in the first place and let politicians off the hook. #TOpoli #ONPoli #CDNPoli

I can't wait for this to be done. Just a few days ago, I took a GO train in and got off from the west/north end of the train. It was a 750 metre walk from the end of the GO platform to the subway platform. I'll be happy when this opens, and we can shave half a click off of that transfer.
