the ginza line to shibuya during rush hour ain't got nothing on the 301

life with a google home:

'hey google, turn on the living room tv'
*silence*
'hey google, turn on the living room tv'
'excusez-moi, je ne comprende pas'
'salut google, allumer la living room tv'
'...sorry, I don't understand'

crossing the pacific would also be possible through guam and majuro, marshall Islands on united's island hopper (which runs more frequently than fiji airways' nadi - kiribati - honolulu service but takes like 16 hours)

the solution I came up with (not looking at schedules, just flight times) is Boston - Reykjavik - London - Istanbul - Dubai - Male (Maldives) - Singapore - Perth - Sydney - Nadi (Fiji) - Kiribati - Hawaii - Los Angeles - really anywhere in the continental US - Boston

am I really sitting here on my day off trying to figure out if you can circumnavigate the planet but only on flights shorter than five hours? yes, yes I am.

is it possible? yeah, yeah it is (and probably a few different ways)

(could also go through australia and use the same fiji airways flights through kiribati to hawaii)

I really wish we had rail to the airport and all, but I love being treated to this view coming across the Centre St Bridge every day.

Troy Smith we're working on it! just give us like... 20 years?

this is exhausting lmao

Wales has stopped building new roads #InducedDemand and has any road improvement stopped drivers behaving stupidly?

Harrison Park

Ashley Terrace: shut for 2+ weeks.

Traffic and pollution at a primary school dramatically reduced. This is the choice our city faces.

Three simple filters prevent this rat run. Every home still accessible, every delivery possible, zero impact on parking.

If all parties agree that 30% mileage reduction is the right thing, then they’d better get removing 30% capacity.

Any economic downturn is going to drive up costs and prices, which in turn reduces demand. Combined, these two phenomena squeeze margins and put unprepared organizations in difficult situations. bit.ly/3MiiF8R

Very pleased to see the Riverside hospital upgraded to a larger rack with more capacity!

(Un)fortunately I still needed to lock to a sign post 😅 #InducedDemand

Brandon Siska brb taking this as a challenge

Props to Calgary Transit this morning - our bus was taken out of service for maintenance and a spare showed up within 5 minutes, with excellent communication and service from the drivers the entire time.

Coming to New York for the first time ever is exciting and intimidating. Let us take some of the pressure off by suggesting where to eat.

just voted at the airport... that's a new one (but it's such an ingenious place to put an advance poll)

needless to say it wasn't a hard choice. #abvotes #AlbertaElection2023

they're perpetually delaying pressure washing our balcony, which is killing me because I can't put out the 🏳️‍🌈 flags for another week or so. how is everyone gonna know???

George "F.inally, it's spring!" Train🚰 medium/large city airports employ 20-50,000+ people on a 24/7 basis, and it's wild to me (as one of those people) that agencies and govt's don't focus way more heavily on serving what is often just behind the downtown core or entire city government in terms of employment

goodbye, this building
