My restraint had been admirable until this point. #bunny #chocolate

I love that I still get enthusiastic about what I do for work, but doing it at 11:30pm for a client on the other side of the planet is exhausting since it takes a few hours to come down from a good presentations adrenaline high. Sleep has been sparse this week. #somnambulant

The extraordinary efficiency of Japan’s Edo economy | Aeon Videos Edo, modern Tokyo, transformed from a city near ecological collapse to a thriving epicentre by creating a circular economy

Between 1603 and 1868, Edo grew into one of the largest cities in the world without ecological collapse through a circular economy rooted in Buddhist values. In this Ted-Ed animation, philosopher Roman Krznaric explores what this 265-year experiment might offer today’s consumption-driven world

An interior shot of Koerner Hall showing the orchestra and choir on the stage and first balcony during the standing ovation that they received at the end of the performance. The interior of the hall is clad in wood and designed especially for excellent acoustic fidelity.

An exceptional performance tonight. Almost three solid hours of choral and orchestra. Intense and moving. Bach’s “St. Matthew’s Passion” is an example of the terrible beauty we can create from a story steeped in faith, betrayal, brutality, death, and salvation. #Christianity #ClassicalMusic #Easter

Toronto Portlands. The old industrial areas are undergoing remediation for both public parks & new residential and commercial interests. The background building is a gigantic former power generation station that has been decommissioned and is often used for military and post-apocalyptic movie sets.

A black and white photo of a barren industrial landscape the raw wet earth embankments and a row of power lines in the foreground. In the misty, foggy background there are power transmission towers and an industrial building with a large smokestack. The scene is desolate and lifeless.

A Sheepadoodle in a yellow raincoat is investigating some of the spring smells between two logs during a very wet and rainily morning walk. He is on a path that is lined with wild grasses and plants that are just showing more life and yellow/gold colour after a long and cold winter.

Chester investigates. In the pouring rain this morning we had a quiet and solitary walk through some of the new park trails along the revitalized waterfront. Chester always finds a plethora of smells that tickle his nose and make investigations mandatory. #Dailychester #sheepadoodle #dogsofbluesky

😂 I started with a PC for about a decade, moved to consulting and Macs for about 20 years, and now am back to a PC. With most platforms being browser based it not a big deal for me, there’s just this ONE enterprise app that’s being rolled out that isn’t 🍎 friendly.

Sadly I had to abandon my trusty MacBook Pro for work as there are some new apps only available on Windows. I’ve also got to fully rework my home office setup to ensure accessory comparability ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Navigating corporate requirements & restrictions has been … challenging 😰

A photo of a small cherry pie with a slice sit out of it. The slice is on a plate with a Fort resting on it. Both are bathed in the late setting sun.

Whilst it is certainly not the best pie I’ve ever had, I’d be remiss not to have pie on “π day” (3.14). #piDay

Leave a person with more hope than they had before they met you, even by just a little bit. We must engage and evolve our social contract once again. #poverty #socialjustice #socialcontract 5/5

We need to be better. Donate and volunteer locally. Do not look away from or around the poverty and homelessness that you pass every day. Recognize the humanity in others as you do in yourself. Leave a place better than when you arrived, even by just a little bit…. 4/5

… at hospitals sheltering children and families, but we can focus on our communities, on our neighbours in need. We can make changes for good. We can set examples for others to follow. We can raise each other up in spirit and love. But we have to be able to see, truly see without judgement… 3/5

Whatever plays out on the world stage between nation states, in the systems of markets and economies, we will all experience the erosion of our humanity. We must do better. We may not be able to push aside the muzzle of a tank or gun aimed at a civilian, nor deflect the bombs aimed… 2/5

A black and white photo of a downtown city street with a large condominium building in the background. In the foreground is a temporary shelter constructed of shopping carts, cardboard boxes, and other found objects. It is anchored on a piece of municipal public art. Next to it sits a city bike. The occupant is no where to be found. The contrast between the rigorous grid of the established building and the chaotic architecture of the street shelter is stark. The municipal artwork bridges both in a design that incorporates structure and formality, but also contains elements of flexibility, randomness, and gaps through which each side can permeate to the other.

We need to do better. As the world enters into another spiral of violence and death, fuelled by the avarice and hate and sociopathy of old men clinging to power and the sycophantic cultists in their wakes, those already struggling will undoubtedly struggle more. Some will lose that struggle… 1/5

It’s great to be home! Warm enough for baseball caps, but snowy enough for Chester to still romp around in the beach. #Dailychester #sheepadoodle #dogsofbluesky

Hot take: ALL mobile phones should be on silent mode in public, ESPECIALLY if their volume control is all the way on high AND their owner has walked away.
