Completed 4 errands downtown by car and paid less than $1 for parking over 3 hours. tHerEs nO pArkIng doWNtoWn!

You're telling me the entire century was mid?

My phone just reminded me of this 4 year photoversary. Some things never change.

Almost got run over by the double-decker bus on my commute home. How was your day? #yegbike

Still working my way through scans/edits from the summer. Nikon FA with Kodak Tri-X in Toronto.

Cleared ≠ usable

Roads were drivable.
Walking and biking routes weren’t passable.

The issue wasn’t clearing — it was coordination.

Cleared paths were made unusable by road clearing.

Everyone, including the 25% of Edmontonians who don't drive, deserve to be able to get around.

Need anything from Table Top?

Where would I submit a ticket for a broken 311 app? Would that be through 311? 🙃

Update: there were 2 vehicles clearing these lanes this morning: a sweeper AND a scraper. While we're now down 2 solid ice in many spots, they're usable again. Adjacent roads haven't been bladed yet and I fear the subsequent windrows will bring us back to the conditions pictured below. 🤞🏼 #yegbike

Conditions were the same this morning. I'm glad I walked and am able to. The 3 blocks that remain on 102ave were bare pavement yesterday. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I've never seen Edmonton bike lanes this bad. And it's been consistent since moving 102a to 103a.

As was foretold in the ancient scripts - "they shall go unused 8 months of each year" #yegbike

I need a Montreal Metros jersey if I ever go to another NHL game. Or maybe there'll be an Edmonton team in s02.

Has #yegcc paused all bike lane clearing this winter, or?

A notice of suite entry from my landlord for the purpose of a suite inspection.

The third "annual" inspection I've had since I moved in, less than 5 months ago.

What perfect album came out the year you turned 16?

Sunday scaries for the loss.

Deer men who can't stop clearing their throats: have you tried hydrating? #misophonia

When your brain blanks on a portion of the computer password you enter all the time. 😵‍💫

I'm surprised the Balinese Dream Method didn't gain more popularity in Western cultures after 1984

I want a Rivendell.

Might start recording my rides again and I'll inundate them with all the close call videos

are we allowed to talk about how communism is good again yet or is that still, like, off limits

Then there was oil pulling 🤔
