A friend is sitting in the 500s. Someone in his section heckled Ohtani about gambling and an usher came over and said “no gambling talk”. My friend inquired further and the usher said no yelling about gambling at all. Un/related: there is a 2-storey gambling ad in the outfield.

#OnThisDay 125 years ago, a boy gets a drink at the man-dog-horse fountain on the corner of College Street and Spadina Avenue. This fountain design promoted public health by keeping the three species from contaminating each other's water. ow.ly/hiXi50RhyxE #OTD #TOHistory

Rush of stories re: poor cottage owners reminds me of city hall, you would often think the most vulnerable Torontonians are seniors living in homes they own. Sure, keep them in mind, but many working and retired people would love to have problems that come with property ownership

I mean, how hard is it exactly to just come out and say: Yeah, I fucked up on this one. Much of my discourse is filled with it.
I've been busy working on housing, so haven't had much time to devote to this. But, wow, is the new federal CDB badly designed. Feds seemed to ignore every piece of advice provided by the disabilities community.

How many people mad about yesterday’s acquittal will spend next weekend de-winterizing their Muskoka cottage while unironically listening to “Wheat Kings?” Because the number is for sure not zero.
At overnight camp, campers spend 75% of their time outdoors, immersing themselves in nature and gaining practical skills through wilderness activities. Nature is an important part of all of our programs and a way to help kids connect and heal. Happy #EarthDay!
