    Time Zones and Daylight Savings

    Interesting proposal from Sen. Lankford. Permanently sticking with one time year-round does seem like the simplest solution to the twice-annual time changes, and I am in favor of this one.

    Feeding wildlife prohibited April 2023

    Interesting approach! I wonder if there are any ethical considerations with birth control for pigeons, even though it seems they haven't found much success with it in Vancouver. The article mentions some concerns, but maybe there are other factors at play.

    Toronto events and festivals

    I totally get the festival burnout! There can be so many, and they do start to blend together after a while. But like you said, those cultural festivals like the Polish and Ukrainian ones are interesting - a chance to experience something new close to home. Maybe it's about picking and...

    Czech Republic

    I like the sound of Czechia better, but I find it a lovely country no matter what name it goes by.

    Czech Republic

    Vysehrad Park in Prague I stumbled upon this hidden gem, Divoka Sarka, a nature reserve located just outside the city of Prague, which is armed with picturesque landscape. 😮 https://gowithguide.com/blog/tourism-in-czech-republic-statistics-2023-the-ultimate-guide-5565

    What's Cooking?

    Wow, that dish looks awesome! I really want to make this, but I think I’ll have to save it for next year because it takes a lot of time to prepare. I'm sure it will be worth the wait though. Thanks for sharing!

    What's Cooking?

    I'm preparing a simple chiffon cake with a thin caramel icing for my wife's birthday tomorrow. I hope everything goes well, as I haven't done this in quite a while. 😅

    Streaming consolidator needed?

    I just want to confirm that my understanding is correct. I plan on subscribing to YouTube Music to remove the ads on music, but I think that subscription will only cover music, not videos. However, if I subscribe to YouTube Premium, that will also remove ads on videos and music?

    Canada legal cannabis - prediction boom or bust?

    I’ve been keeping an eye on the cannabis industry here in Canada, and I’m leaning towards it being a bust. Despite the optimistic market growth predictions, the actual situation seems quite stagnant. It’s just my personal take on the matter.

    Toronto is one of the loneliest places in Canada

    Great work on the boat! That's an excellent example of a meticulously researched and documented model ship building project.

    War on Drugs, if demand rather than supply focused?

    Yes, I agree we should fix mental health. Fixing it will also solve some other issues in our society. This will not totally erase drug use, but it can be reduced immensely.

    War on Drugs, if demand rather than supply focused?

    The issue with this reasoning is that there is no single reason why someone uses drugs - mental health is just one of many reasons. Fixing mental health will not fix the other reasons. More importantly, the way to fix them should be through legal means.

    Toronto is one of the loneliest places in Canada

    I agree, being an introvert myself, that working at home is a godsend. I am perfectly happy despite having no kids yet, but I still have my dog and my wife with me. I am also a member of a church, but not very active at that. For me, being lonely does not depend on the country or community but...

    Inflation

    I'm sorry to hear about your dad's passing. I'm glad I got the motivation to quit smoking, mostly because of my wife. 😊 My only regret is that I should have quit sooner. My dad was also a smoker, but he got to live to 83 years old despite starting smoking at a very young age.

    Inflation

    To deal with inflation, my wife cooks at home most of the time now instead of eating at restaurants. But we still indulge in eating out once in a while. I quit my old job, and I’m now working at home. I use bicycle or walk to do errands. And the one thing that my wife was most happy about, I...

    Why do we choose dark coat colours for winter?

    I personally like wearing black, 😎 but for safety during the night, my favorite jacket is reversible from black to orange. Let me try to explain why wearing black helps me get warmer - On hot, sunny days, the sun gives off light and heat rays. Light colored clothes reflect most light we see...

    War on Drugs, if demand rather than supply focused?

    I agree with you that the war on drugs should focus more on demand than supply. It makes sense to help people who use drugs instead of punishing them or trying to stop the supply, like what happened in the Philippines under the previous administration 😒. But the problem is, how do we pay for all...

    The seemingly terminal decline of Tim Hortons

    I feel you, I’ve had my fair share of messed up orders at Tim’s too. 😞 I wish they would go back to the basics and focus on making good coffee and doughnuts. That’s what made them popular in the first place.

    Should gas stoves be banned?

    I also prefer gas stoves for my own home. 😌 But if I were to rent or the company will provide me with a place to stay, I would prefer electric as compared to gas for cooking.
