Attention London, Ontario / #ldnont
Gas was $1.70 a liter today when I went out for coffee in #ldnont That's Up from 1.50 last week around the same time.
I'm gonna fill up at some point this week, but I bet Trump is gonna cost me another 5-20 cents per liter by then.

Tulip Garden
Orange golden tipped tulip.
As if in sympathy with the grey gloomy weather in my little corner of the world (London, Ontario / #ldnont), my timeline is filled with a lot of dark (in colour and content) photos this morning. I need cheerful photos. Here are two photos of my tulips in my spring garden from a couple of years ago.
Congratulations to Maciek Szczerbowski from London, Ontario, Canada, and the National Film Board!

This week we’re examining how reproductive injustice is shaped by structural forces—including intimate partner violence, state violence, and economic coercion. Violence isn’t random. It’s built into systems that control bodies and limit autonomy. #ReproductiveJustice #LdnOnt #GenderedViolence
The future of London’s sole supervised drug consumption site is up in the air, as the agency that runs it says provincial funding for the program will end within months #ldnont

This isn’t the first time I’ve shot dead fish in a store, and it likely won’t be the last.
Because weird is where we go when blink-or-you-miss-it moments of photographic whimsy offer temporary refuge from the serious, sad, scary realness of the everyday.

Sometimes it's just good to take a stand. However we do it, let's do it together.

It was Crazy windy last night, I hope this VERY windy winter has left any trees around you ready to weather that crazy wind!
At least it's sunny out now in #ldnont
#FakeSpring appears to be continuing. Let's not get too excited until we get a full 2 weeks without snow!
Blasting out @billybragg.bsky.social here in #LdnOnt London Ontario because there is SO MUCH EXCITEMENT for his local gig in July. Oh bloody hell.
Hey @grahamflhenderson.bsky.social maybe I’m on board with the City of Music thing now. 😎
To film producers, directors, actors, writers and anyone else who works in the film industry, here's one simple plea. #LdnOnt

Our daughter ordered an extra donut for me, just because. She inherited the “just because” gene from her lovely mom.
So of course I had to shoot it before I ate it.
It didn’t last much longer after this photo was taken. The memory will linger indefinitely.

It was 16 degrees on Monday.

'Decisions were Made' ... A Killdeer reflects in a snowy field #LdnOnt, after making it's way north, when earlier in the week it was 16°C. #birds #nature #birdwatching #birding #Fujifilm #birdphotographý #Canada #outdoors #outdoorphotography
Just now at the bus stop and a cobra chicken wandered past me on the sidewalk, nodding at me, and checked out the trash can there before taking off. #LdnOnt

More snow, but also rain in #ldnont
It’s back!!! Moderate to heavy snow in #Londontario this morning. Some big flakes. Hopefully won’t be long before it melts. #ONstorm #LdnOnt
We don’t go to the mall like we used to.
These liminal spaces have been slowly, sadly hollowed out by e-commerce, economic uncertainty, and generational shifts in priorities.
The mall walkers now rule.
Yet still we stare at the architecture in wonder.

The snowdrops make their annual appearance.
Fake summer is over, back to freezing temperatures.

Every time city council asked us "When should we stop investing in downtown?" my reply was to point out our assessment growth and ask "If you had a machine that turned loonies into toonies, when would you stop putting loonies in it?" #ldnont
I wonder if #LdnOnt will ever understand this concept?
Grand Théâtre stage. Box seating on the sides. The stage has two podiums on either side of a table with red table cloth. The debaters logo is at the back of the stage.
The London Music Hall will host @billybragg.bsky.social on July 7th. A great venue with a capacity of only 1,850.

There are days when the only answer is a jumbled pile of roma tomatoes.
I believe today is such a day.
There doesn’t need to be a reason.
All we need to do is revel in the weirdly random joy of chaotically arranged vegetables.

Warning. Yellow-coloured fentanyl in #LdnOnt has caused multiple overdoses. This notice expires on March 21 as supply changes constantly.
This isn't merely a "Canada" problem, but a challenge for all Western democracies. Escalating poverty and cloistered wealth have become staples, and if permitted to continue could tear us apart. It's a danger food banks across the country have been trying to speak to since the pandemic.
