Netflix is re-doing Ranma 1/2, and apparently got all the original cast to come back to do the voice acting. Very cool. But the theme song being totally different is really throwing me off.
If you consider that Metrolinx CEO Phil Verster’s salary rose from $101,433 in 2017 to $856,552 in 2022, this inquiry becomes more important. As LRT costs ballooned, so did his salary.

Many reasons this 401 tunnel is silly, but another one: Ford could pay for both the (unfunded) Waterfront LRT and Eglinton E LRT many times over for what this tunnel will cost. Hell, you could gold plate the trains and offer riders champagne and caviar https://t.co/OXnGtfNY9i

On the one hand, a lot of generative AI feels like your typical Silicon Valley grift and bullshit. On the other hand, I can read and write bash scripts now. That's gotta be worth 100 billion dollars.
At least two women in Georgia died after they couldn’t access legal abortions, ProPublica has found. One was Amber Thurman who, like 60 per cent of people that get abortions in the U.S., was already a parent, of a six-year-old, who now has no mother. https://t.co/CqGozF5ryj
Watching stuff at Midnight Madness feels harder and harder the older I get, but it is 100% the best way to experience TIFF. Watched the Shadow Strays tonight. So much ultra violence. It was amazing.
This is amazing. And a testament to accept that the pre-pandemic equation of ridership vs service is no longer applicable.
Trudge a new path, we need to invest in transit for living and not commuting.
When I read parts of Capital in university I thought to myself, “could this be the most boring book ever written?” That is a rhetorical question, the answer is yes. But maybe this new translation, or me being 25 years older, will change my thoughts on the matter.
