This one was a bit too close to home. I left campus a couple of hours before this one. https://www.cp24.com/local/toronto/2025/04/15/4-pedestrians-injured-in-downtown-toronto-hit-and-run-say-police/ For the record, the Mandela walkway is what Victoria Street becomes, in the area where it's...

I doubt they have anything of the sort. In fact I would be more than a little surprised if they have anything approaching brakes. It looked sort of like this...

I almost saw someone on one of those stupid single-wheelers get taken out, in SEATAC, when he jumped the gun on an advanced turn signal. Pity I didn't get it on my travel dashcam.

Not really connected to this thread, but connected: I got to see "The Gamers: Dorkness Falls" from the inside. I was on-set, in Seattle, both on-camera and behind a (stills) camera. Even had an incredibly minor part and ONE line :ROFLMAO:. I sure hope they use the long shot, and not the swivel...

I am firmly of the opinion that everyone is a potential addict and most of us just haven't found the one thing that triggers it in us. I was lucky to find out, fairly early in life, that alcohol does it for me, though other substances also do. As a result I keep away from any intoxicants.

Just rewatched a few episodes today, myself.

I was pretty specific in my qualifier, which doesn't apply to those other groups.

Every other employer isn't the government, which has the duty to try someone charged with a crime.

If you haven't watched his recent video about being threatened (again) with a lawsuit by a SovCit, it's well worth the time.

Likely a target of opportunity for a joyrider.

Several people have said to me that the big scene in the desert was exactly how they pictured it, from reading the books.and praised how they handled Rand's thing in particular. EDIT - Being purposely vague so I don't spoil any of it, if you're not there (S3E4) by the time that you read this ;)
