Smart design people dunking on this - I can't find the tweet but somebody already mentioned that if SUVs and pickups were designed like this, lives would be saved. The function is the function and it's functional. And safer.
And it's cute. The fashion of vehicle design has been aggressive the last while - think of all those angry, beak-like snouts on cars & mad max front grills on trucks - fashion can lead us in bad directions.
It’s cute
Oh hey
Correct

G20 news! Friend who was kettled by police at Queen & Spadina & part of a class action FINALLY got a settlement: $12,000 (minus legal fees = $9300). Not sure how many were part of class action but you & I are paying a lot out on behalf of police & former chief (now Lib minister).
All the folks/pundits/politicians who gave the G20 abuses a pass because they didn't like the politics of protestors can now meditate on the money they're paying out.
All this $$$ paid out, and barely any police charged, wrists slapped. The system at work.

One industry observer said to me of this vid: "Homesense is always filled w realtors stagers - an industry that will not slow down. Talked to a realtor who buys items at homesense, stages a house, and then returns it all when she’s done. Including linens."

ICYMI in the @TorontoStar a tale of two perfectly good public buildings that will be torn down. Just last week council voted to look at all decisions thru a climate lens yet 1 yr ago unanimously approved the destruction of St Lawrence Centre for the Arts. thestar.com/opinion/contri…
It's hard to take that declaration seriously when the incredibly amount of energy & materials (& $) that went into them is wasted, even by the climate hawks. Here's Wallace Emerson community centre, sadly soon to go. Won 1982 GG architecture medal. There's nothing like it. ImageImageImageImage
Here are some rendering of what Perkins & Will is proposing to replace it with. "While the existing park and community centre were at the end of their lifespan..." - irresponsibly copy from a design firm, but typical. perkinswill.com/project/wallac…

A short story illustrating why police reform is extremely difficult in Toronto & politicians don't want to touch it. 52 Division on Dundas W has a public plaza in front of it. Trees, planters, benches. My OCAD students once did a project in it. Public. Could use a touch of love.
20 years ago it was a parking lot for police cruisers & the private vehicles of police officers. It was illegal to park there but they did. There were signs, etc., ignored. Area residents were upset, cops did not care, kept parking. Enter then City Councillor Olivia Chow.
In 2001 she made an attempt to get the cars out of the public plaza. Even taking it to council, looking to redesign plaza, etc as a way to fix. Nothing. Cops kept parking in public plaza (they have parking/underground garage in back). Read it here here: toronto.ca/legdocs/2001/a…
