Learning that the Seattle "East Link" line to Redmond opens tomorrow with a phase 1 that doesn't even connect to Seattle!
Wow if only there was another eastern leg of a long transit line that's been functionally finished for years that could take a lesson from this.
My kid was playing some ad-encrusted Picross clone on a phone. So it was time to dig the 3DS out of mothballs!
Hardest part was them adjusting to a pressure touchscreen&stylus after being raised on capacitive.
So I guess we're just not having winter this year?
Endless November continues.

Biking 12km to IKEA to pick up a bed.
Kids came too! In our *other* cargo bike. (Hilariously obscured by the shopping in the first picture)
Some real classic Anti-Woke-Mind-Virus reading from 1992...
Reads exactly like you would think it does. Pretty insufferable 80 pages of ChatGPT-quality "satire".
My home HVAC only has dust screens, so with the wildfires it was time to pull an Apollo 13, and rig up actual filters

My current dilemma:
Do I vote right now for my preferred candidate (Josh Matlow)

Imagine if this were a ranked ballot (if only...) and you actually ranked the whole thing.
I got my #TOPoli Mayoral election ballot!
Oh JEEZ why do those guys get front page billing! 😬😬😬
My 4-year-old was starting to get the hang of playing Rock Band (on "Very Easy") today.
It occurs to me that Rock Band/Guitar Hero to my kid, is as old as Pong is to me.

Compelling every urban development to have its own private green space results in meaningless patches of useless grass or foliage.
It is far better to push the city to consolidate these efforts and create more urban parks/parkettes. If only there was some land nearby that could do the trick...
A real shame there is no green space anywhere near these towers approved for the...
