Snow :/
Snow is melting!
This morning on my way from the poorly-cleared drop-off point to the bus, I slipped and nearly fell on some wet-looking ice.
The transit system is slowly becoming unfucked. As the streets de-ice, they're repairing the buses that have been damaged by their own tire chains.
As I told Toronto Ponytail this morning downstairs, it's not specifically that the snow was that bad, it's that the snow was that bad for the infrastructure we have. Nobody* has shovels, there aren't enough snowplows, and he agreed that it's actually entirely sensible for people to assume they're not going anywhere for a week and to shop accordingly. Especially when the store's incoming deliveries are going to be disrupted too.
This climate stuff. It just isn't natural.
* People who have lived here through the last big snow probably have shovels, unless their evil ex took them on the way out. Cough, glare, spit.
** Climate change deniers will be vaccinated and fed to starving polar bears.
