We need to stop talking about bike lanes.
This isnโt about bike lanes. Itโs explicitly the requirement to own a car to live in this fucking country.
This has to shift to a story frame of affordability and not infrastructure or space. Cuz that story is lost to conservative virtue signalling

Try the Natural History Museum, they have a bird collection in storage, and there is a curator there who is interested in such things. Could be a good collaboration opportunity for them.

Not going to be a popular initiative. There are proportionately more smokers here than many places. I call it the lowest common denominator.

"Time for tap" across the board with Halifax Transit I say. Even buying e-tickets and then tapping those feels like a lot.

I found a Northern Flicker feather on the ground, on the 2nd anniversary of my move to NS from the UK. Beautiful black, and the brightest yellow. I've taken it as a sign. I don't know of what yet.

The crux: Wentworth events assist the economy. Me picking my way round the rat infested (yes, people with cars, you donโt know about Sobeys rat problem) back of sobeys to get to a job, is not seen, valued, nor a accommodated. And Iโm becoming angry. I hate the feelings.

I want to add that Iโm in full support of the decision to protect ourselves from fire, but the blanket-nature of the decision has caused further harm to already difficult everyday life in Halifax. There are many here suffering, yet always and again, it is invisible and unseen.

Yesterday I walked an extra two miles getting to and from bus stops. This city depends on informal short cuts as infrastructure, because of lack of infrastructure. Thank goodness I can walk distances, but this is mainly hidden.
