- Back in the 80s, my uncles in grad school in Michigan and Wisconsin would carefully record multiple kids shows on a video cassette and bring it to tiny me in India as a present. Episodes of Sesame Street, The Looney Tunes show and Fraggle Rock, along with all the glorious advertisements in between

- Always surprised to find sewer grating in North America with marks saying 'Made in India's Where exactly are they made in India? Also - do gulls murmurate? I just saw a humongous flock of gulls at the falls perform one! Bonus pic of a wet, cold and misty Niagara

Remember to sign the @ttcriders.bsky.social petition to speed up LRTs and streetcars in Toronto with signal priority www.ttcriders.ca/greenlight - Reposted by Shruti MuralidharThis is HUGE! (Read it!!). I'll be cheering Doris and Astera Neuro on the entire way. Doris is a genius, both in the scope of her vision and in making things happen (that combination is rare). SO EXCITING! I can't wait to see what Astera Neuro discovers. astera.org/neuroscienti...
