@brenttoderian.bsky.socialReposted by @aidanosullivan.bsky.socialWATCH: Seriously, if you’re following ANY bike-lane debate, you really should watch and share this excellent news story. Ford LIES that bike-lanes are bad for small business, and THE ACTUAL BUSINESS ASSOCIATION obliterates him with data. Remember and share this as Ford tears out Toronto bike-lanes.
toronto.citynews.caAnnex businesses tell Ford to back off Bloor bike lanesStores 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 removed.

@aidanosullivan.bsky.socialThe mystery is the 32%. It’s as if we have to accept that in any group of ten people, three of them love watching the school bully punching other kids in the face, stealing their lunch, etc. Even if their own lives are harder, they get to listen to, watch, and enjoy cruelty

I post these things, out of relief, & in case anyone else has a recent diagnosis of Type 2 diabetes-we have options
@aidanosullivan.bsky.socialOh, I’ve reversed Type 2 diabetes completely. Six months on, I’m back in the normal range (38 mmol/mol). I’m thinking of the people I’m grateful to, some of them may never know - but thank you ☺️
@aidanosullivan.bsky.socialBut what if a publisher was to say “This is absurd.. get stuffed” ? But I take your point

@aidanosullivan.bsky.socialWW2 movies and documentaries; actors carrying their rifles with muzzle-down, grrr.!! 😡 WW2 wooden rifle stocks were long, heavy, and awkward for a modern low-ready (muzzle-down) style. Troops were trained to carry muzzle-up (or horizontal at hip) protecting barrel from mud or dirt, and bayonet ready
