Why yes, the $5 EastWest Shuttle across the lakefront to Ookwimin Minising *was* lovely, thank you. What a great service. I just wish it would remain $5. $15 is a bit steep.

Yellow bike on a water shuttle ahead of a yellow and white bridge. Blue sky. Blue water. Summer feeling.

Unless you sit on the rocks under the bridge, or find this sole parkette on the outer edge by the road, where all the dump trucks thunder by. Truly weird planning for staying in the park.

Concrete block and Muskoka chair parkette beside a busy road.

Gorgeous night at Dominico Field, watching the Maple Leafs almost grab the lead over Welland. Pooched bases loaded, twice. Amazing crowd of a wild range of friendly ppl, kids running around having a blast. Toronto does have some nice things.

Friday Night Lights over a local baseball diamond, the crowd filling the surrounding grassy hills. No bleachers here.

And receiving a gift from a local artisan and friend is the best farewell. (Check out Myth&Wild in Malta for gorgeous items; seriously, look at this presentation)

At least Carpenter's aliens were covert about it.

A still from John Carpenter's They Live: a billboard as seen through special sunglasses, revealing the subliminal message, OBEY.

While I'm all for adding new housing, it hurts my heart when old growth trees are cut down. College Street development near UofT.

Before and After images of old converted houses being gutted in prep for new tall building development. Before pic shows tall trees surrounding the buildings, After pic shows the facade shells and all trees removed.

It's literally impossible to avoid ai slop. Trying to find some psych info, and this graphic is in the article text to explain DARVO (coercive manipulation tactic). 50% of this is made up 'words'. Who tf approves these postings? This is on the Harbor Psychiatry and Mental Health site.

article graphic of an illustrated person divided into puzzle pieces, surrounded by words, half of them completely nonsensical and include non-english text characters.

"Ethics" has no meaning anymore. Got this in my news feed: a headline with an accompanying "photo BY CHATGPT". From a magazine that touts "ethical living".

News headline about "mental health movement rediscovering ancient wisdom", noting the photo attached is by a planet destroying tech toy for billionaires.

Toronto doing its best to put people in harm's way. This is at the corner of Crawford and College. No one around, no trucks, signs, or workers. Just a giant hole right in the bike lane. That cone is going to get crushed any minute now. #topoli @thebikinglawyer.bsky.social

Photo of street corner with an open manhole, a single orange cone beside it.

My favourite tree in High Park being a stunner in the melancholy of fog this morning.

Black bare trees amidst grey fog. Looking ominous and knowing.

Back in simpler times...

Also, pick up her book!

Tl cleanse: A lovely little treat was left on the massive log that has fallen over one of the paths in High Park (I'm so happy the park has decided not to chop this log into bits). Go find it!

A blue painted Easter egg sits atop a brown fallen log, with bare trees in the background, while a crisp blue sky peeks through.

I will never not be disappointed in the crappy photoshop of modern film posters.

Poorly photoshopped poster of the Devil Wears Prada 2, each of the 4 actors cropped in to look like they're standing/sitting upon a white marble staircase.

I did a thing. Hear me on Jules Smith's podcast Fearless Practice chat about how I got into the field of sex therapy. On Apple Podcasts (please comment so Jules can get those nice numbers up because they're a nice person) or wherever you get your listening freak on.

Am absolutely in love with this concept art for the animated version of André Alexis' 15 Dogs; if not especially bc the 506 is my route. The article sadly does not reference the illustrator (please please please don't be ai) variety.com/wp-content/u...

Saw this photo in a local paper mentioning a new restaurant and I didn't read any further because I'm too distracted by the grip on this fork. I just can't trust any image anymore to look human.

Close up of two hands with utensils over a breakfast plate, one hand holding the fork the way a mannequin would.

But it's also really beautiful today in the parks.

Leafless tress tower over snow casting long shadows, a few tracks hidden beneath. The sky is bright blue.

Went for a walk this morning to see the aftermath of #snowTO. Good things the streets are plowed so ppl can walk on them bc there's no one driving and the sidewalks aren't plowed. Peak Toronto.

A street scene after a massive snowfall. Parked cars buried under snow, the street is plowed and empty of drivers, the sidewalk is buried.

The sky is bright blue.

Gorgeous night in Toronto. The ability to go for an evening walk during a snowstorm is priceless and can help quiet all the noise of the world. Even if for a brief moment to allow you to breathe. #SnowTO

Evening of Toronto snowstorm. A row of rental bikes stand peeking through a 30cm snow bank, against a backdrop of leafless trees. Lights from lampposts dot the background.

Sometimes Toronto is absolutely beautiful.

Dusk falls behind a snowy park, the skeletons of slumbering trees cast shadows on the fresh snow. Houses line the background.

A lone bench sits alone in the center.

I always make sure to make it out at least a couple times a summer to the Toronto Islands for a bike adventure. This photo was taken outside the local Airstream café. All of the bikes of every flavour!

Got incessantly mocked in the park by a group of teen boys for taking pics of the gorgeous trees.

Did you stop to look up this weekend?
