The @kclibrary.bsky.social Summer Reading program theme is "Read, Score, Roar!," combining dinosaurs and soccer. Anyway can sign up!
But an important debate here: if a dinosaur manipulates the ball with its horn, is it considered handball by the laws of the game?

What I don't get about city NIMBYs is: if you're so focused on parking that you'll oppose amenities and new housing, why not just move to the actual suburbs instead of your streetcar suburb? There is plenty of parking!
Back in the day of headphone jacks, I used to keep a few pairs of cheap airplane earbuds in my bag and offer them to people as a polite/helpful way to tell them to stop playing their phone sound on transit.
Now what's the move?
I appreciate that the neighborhood likely freaked out about parking impact, but appeasing them by punishing your patrons who bike, walk and use transit is not a great look.
If every billionaire is a policy failure, what is every trillionaire?
