I marvel at the idea that my 7 year old can bike himself through the city past the Capitol down to the major league ballpark in 15 minutes or so. And he knows the way!

Annex businesses tell Ford to back off Bloor bike lanes Stores in the Annex say the Bloor bike lanes have been a big boost to business. As Michelle Mackey reports, the neighborhood's BIA wants the province to back off its new bill that could see the lanes ...

WATCH: Seriously, if you’re following ANY bike-lane debate, you HAVE TO WATCH this news story. You actually can’t make this up. Ford claims without evidence that bike-lanes are bad for small business, and THE ACTUAL BUSINESS ASSOCIATION obliterates him with data.

Safe bike-lanes mean business.

A screenshot of Rachel Dratch from SNL. She's a white woman with short dark hair and blue eyes, and she's making an awkward expression that implies, "Sorry I have to tell you this and ruin your good time. But also I'm kind of not sorry about it." I've added a subtitle that reads, "That's AI."

an updated debbie downer sketch but it's friends showing her funny videos and she has to respond like this to every single one like this:

We’re also going for this as much as possible β€” my kid is almost 7 and we’re the more radical ones about independence in the group, but it’s possible even in a β€œbig city”!

This has always been one of my thoughts about the benefits of bike commuting and my personal brand of stoicism. Basically, you're microdosing discomfort, helping to inoculate yourself from the bigger challenges and discomforts you might face in other parts of life. Sweat a bit now, succeed later.

Like holy shit this explains the number of teenagers who think they can become youtube stars as a career. And also is it the kids googling what age they can be left home alone? Or the parents??

What does it imply if it’s the parents who google β€œleaving kid home alone” + β€œYouTube stars”?

Jack stumbled upon some Mark Rober show on Netflix which I immediately nixed for being too YouTube slop-y.

But then I googled who Mark Rober was. And the Google β€œsuggested searches other people have asked” is…revealing (deragatory). πŸ‘€

Why am I walking around in my flight suit? Because it’s not really a flight suit - it’s a Copenhagen bodysuit for biking and I’m about to spend an hour in a freezing cold parking garage lol
