🤷
Listen it's not endemic.
But it has happens.
These motorcycle sized bikes on the subway are pretty obnoxious. They take up a ton of room
Not sure if that's even possible here.
It feels like every Uber Eats delivery person is on one of these things.
They are everywhere.
I imagine we could grandfather in existing vehicles somehow, maybe by distributing stickers for existing owners. I dunno.
But it would kill the gig economy here, I feel like the electric motorcycle problem might be here to stay.
Can't argue with the base premise. But here in Toronto it's the ebike wild West. Where no law is enforced.
Folks are ripping by in the bike lanes on 100lb electric mopeds with throttles and fold away pedals. I've seen bikes where the chain is rusted off but the "bike" happily zips past a grandma on dutch bike at 35kph.
Recently the transit commission finally banned ebikes on the subway because they were lighting trains on fire.
All I ask is that ebikes are limited to pedal assist and have a weight limit. But I think the genie is out of the bottle.
Anyway. I've got opinions.
I've had the concept of this photo in my head for a while, we've just been waiting for the right puddle.
Happy I could finally take the shot.
Now.... Can I get him to leap while wearing a cape? 🤔🤔🤔
Gotta make the effort
We were planning to road trip to the US in the summer with Bowie our dog.
The idea of a border agent getting anywhere near our dog is absolutely terrifying.
Trip cancelled, driving through small town Ontario instead.

Brilliant puzzle game
Designed to be played on a controller with one hand so you can take notes with your other hand.
Such a cool stylish game. Highly recommended.
Deep state is having a nap I guess.
I don't mean that facetiously, honestly surprised the CIA is just chill with everything.
It is very cold here, yes. 😗
We've been super lucky with Bowie

Absolutely ferocious game of bitey-facey


Bowie isn't afraid to play with puppies
Awoooo!
Absolutely love this 🤣
Sorry! Just to be clear this is my dog!
Didn't mean to post such a provocative title. I just think it's funny that this little blanket burrower who steals treats out of my pockets came from wolves.
He's a Whippet, of course he needs a coat!
He's always impressed with himself. Always.
My partner is holding a frisbee up. Bowie loves to jump for it even when we're not shooting photos. I Photoshop my partner's arm out of the photo.
I hope you're happy, you ruined the magic trick 😘
Boops deliveried! Scritches incoming!
Nailed it. But please excuse me, I see a Bosch painting I simply must critique

Looking forward to treats in 2025, happy New Year's Lemmy



Bowie just got back from Space Miami


Can't add music to the post so just play some synthwave while viewing 💜😎

Bow-wow-wow I look just like Buddy Holly


Listen folks, I know the glasses and collar don't work. We're trying!
