An inspiring writer, introduced to me by an equally talented artist and teacher in high school. Rest in peace.
Milan Kundera, author of The Unbearable Lightness of Being has died, aged 94.
In this clip from Arena in 1984, he speaks about the nature of existence and exploring these ideas through the characters of the novel.

PS: On Monday, don’t vote for a mayor who wants to remove cycling infrastructure and de-prioritize the safety of vulnerable road users. Vote for a mayor who’s going to bring road safety to YSW and the rest of the city because we deserve it - we always have.

The Ontario Science Centre (Raymond Moriyama, 1969) is a masterpiece and a deeply important building. The Doug Ford government is going to abandon and demolish it. That’s shameful.
Thoughts on this ad from @PizzaPizzaLtd? I find it clever but not sure if I should also be sad?? 😂😭

.@FrancesNunziata, why is this the state of the sidewalks at the corner of Mulock and Lloyd? I have to push my stroller on the road to access a public park. Enjoying such amenities must be why Toronto home prices are through the roof. 🤔

.@311Toronto there has been dead wildlife near Keele and Mulock parkette rotting for weeks. I submitted a ticket which was immediately cancelled. My husband just submitted a ticket and it was also cancelled, citing “divisional request cancelled” as the reason. Can you advise?

Watch this video of a few seconds.
That's how sons and, above all, daughters of Iranian dictators live. It has nothing to do with the life they want to impose on Iranian people, particularly on women!

.@ronmortgageguy honest question: why do banks make it so hard to know how much of your mortgage payment is going towards principal? I only get one annual statement with TD, and my online banking has no info on this. I have to call and ask. Seems intentionally cumbersome.

As seen in front of Topper Linen Supply on Junction road. Is this a city sanctioned sign and part of #VisionZero? Is it okay for trucks to routinely block and limit accessibility for differently abled citizens? @JohnTory @notjustbikes @311Toronto @StephenPunwasi @Penalosa_G
Anyone else getting served these ads? Not sure what to think other than, ew. Way to find another way to arbitrarily divide people. 🤢

To my, and perhaps your, dismay, I cannot claim responsibility for the series of unfortunate events that is 2020.

Sedentary behavior increases your risk of cancer, so it’s important to keep moving even while staying home and practising social distancing. Try adding movement into your day in simple ways – like stretching while watching TV.

Stay home. It doesn’t matter that the weekend’s almost here - if you choose to gather in groups or hang out with your friends, you’re putting yourself, those around you, and our health care workers at risk. So take this seriously. Do the right thing and stay home this weekend.
