@mortonofski.bsky.social Hello again, old friend.

On Feb. 12, 1969, Toronto tested out having "bus bunnies" to make public transit more attractive. The idea was proposed by the Canadian Urban Transportation Conference
The idea was only tested for one day before it was abandoned.

Sure, why not?
Happy Monday all.

It's the unimportance of it all that I find most crushing.

Not sure how to deal with it.

Pizza! 😭😭😭

Started looking at streaming again...

I still remember the first time I saw news coverage of unrest in Paris. Saw the firefighters bawling with riot police.

Me, Friday afternoon: "I'm gonna make a tasty dinner tonight, and get some well-deserved rest."

Me Friday night after the Devil's Lettuce:

Solid week in the kitchen. Shepherds Pie, Chili, Peameal Sandwiches, Pancakes, Dhal, Fried Rice, and a killer Curried Carrot soup.

And tons of little stuff to get aging pantry contents used up.

Happy family. Full bellies.

They produce it here in my city and we're all kind of wondering what's going to happen to those jobs 😕

You think you can just fake your way into Necromancy? Hell no.

You gotta urn it!

Bitter cold and wind.

Why shovel the snow yesterday when you can shovel it today?

....with a hangover.

Heh. One day I'll learn.

The Petro Canada glasses have always been a thrift mission for me. Ive got a few, but plenty left to add to the collection. Happy hunting!

Holy jesus it snowed a lot here.

Happy birthday to Dini Petty, born on this day in 1945!
She was the first female traffic reporter to pilot her own helicopter, clocking 5,000 hours as a pilot for CKEY. She then became a news anchor, reporter and talk show host on both radio and television.

Some snow out dere, eh?

Heh.
#nerd

Things I won't miss:

-Line 1 trains bring spaced by 11 minutes for some reason at 10:30 on a Monday morning.

Oh I also worked out how much to load on my Presto Card so that itd have $0.01 left on it when I get back to my car tonight.

Cause I'm that guy.

Well here we go. The last day is upon me.

My goals today:
-Send my goodbye emails
-Probably duck out early

I wouldn't be surprised if we ended up swamped and I just had to quietly excuse myself at the end of the day.

That kinda thing happens pretty regularly around here...

This really cool thing happens as you age...

The children all start coming to the bars you go to. Then they talk about "older" people who are like 30.

I can't wait to do the seeing that I'm gonna be doing with these newfangled "spectacles"

Ill be bringing my partner for glasses-choice time.

Cause im SMRT.

Quick question for anyone still on Twitter: Why? And does that reason really mitigate being part of a nazi and deep fake platform?
