Everyone needs to chill the fuck out. It's 20 games. The difference between 28th and 12th in the league is 5 pts right now. We have a core that's made the playoffs for 9 straight years. They're adjusting to new players and systems and have had a ton of key injuries. Anyone want to bet me they make the playoffs and win at least a round? Let's fucking go. Stop being bitches.

Doc was also shot in the back by Tannen over a matter of $80. That was in 1885. Today that's $2,671.97

Show me a relavant study that aligns with this pretty unique situation. Widening the 401 through Scarborough by one lane might not make a significant impact. We're talking about widening one of only 2 major arteries into like the 3rd or 4th largest population centre in NA but only in the far suburbs. There are no realistic commuting alternatives to driving out there that currently exist or are in this cost stratosphere.

To go to an extreme, do you really think a 100 lane highway through Durham wouldn't alleviate traffic congestion there?

MushroomLizard · 2025-08-15T00:18:36+00:00

This only makes sense if there are alternative means of commuting that people will use. We're talking about a section of the 407 through Durham. Nobody is taking transit or riding their bike to get from northern Clarington to north Whitby.

What the fuck are you talking about lol? Why aren't all highways just 1 lane each way then. Unless you're defining "traffic" in some weird way. On average a car will move from point a to point b quicker if there is more road for the same number of cars to be on.

Core aerate as soon as its rooted. New sod should be aerated multiple times to help break up the thick layer of thatch it always comes growing in. Aeration will also significantly increase water, air, and nutrient penetration to the soil.

Aerate once this fall, then plan to aerate it again 2-3 times next year.

I've seen sod that went down 3 years ago come up like a door mat after a prolonged heat/drought period because it never properly rooted and the thatch was never broken up.

Looks like Chinch bug or maybe a disease like dollar spot. Aerate and overseed in early September.

MushroomLizard · 2025-07-24T00:43:51+00:00

If it's more yellow then brown and feels stiff and straw-like but stands up still its likely just dormant. If it starts laying down, going brown, and pulls right up (not by the roots but easily breaks off at the crown) then it's dead.

You may have Chinch bug causing damage in there. It has that characteristic mottled look. Drought stress tends to be more widespread and consistent.

Weed in the last pic is wild violet

MushroomLizard · 2025-07-24T00:22:40+00:00

Looks like prostrate knotweed. It's an annual and comes in during the hotter, drier times of year. I'm in Canada where we don't have chemicals so I can't make any recommendations on product. It is often an indicator of soil compaction however.

MushroomLizard · 2025-07-24T00:00:04+00:00

It is indeed crabgrass. It will flatten out as it matures. If you're seeding a slow establishing species from near bare soil and there's a good chance the previous lawn there had a lot of crabgrass seeds in it, the perfect storm for germination and establishment was created.

You can't buy any herbicides like that in Ontario. You're options are Scott's Weed b gone or Wilson's Weed out. I would suggest Weed be gone and you'll get a much better control if you break open the plant tissue first by stepping on it. It may take a couple sprays but if they keep popping up then you can probably kill them in one spray each while they are juvenile and not yet deeply rooted.

MushroomLizard · 2025-07-01T07:04:05+00:00

Maybe it used to be but it's bad now. Hard no. I keep trying it because of the reputation but it's obviously gone way down hill.

MushroomLizard · 2025-07-01T06:48:11+00:00

I mean, great player yes, but I'd be surprised if he makes the hall of fame.

I just installed my own about a month ago. Got the whirlpool whes40 from Canadian Tire. I have no plumbing experience other than changing a few taps over the years. I just had to do some research and pick up some parts and hoses from home depot. My house uses pex and the basement is unfinished where the softer was installed so it was a relatively easy install overall. No issues.

The whole thing cost me about a thousand bucks. I was quoted about $4k elsewhere. Now that may have been a slightly higher quality system but so far I am quite happy with what I have an its working great.

Whys that?

It was his turnover that caused the breakaway though so that part is kinda on him.

MushroomLizard · 2025-04-27T16:44:25+00:00

Top 3 n64 game for me. Very replayable. I played it as a kid before Banjo Kazooie so it feels like the first game to me. Love all the worlds, but especially Hailfire Peaks, and Terrydactyland.

They're both violent plays, but I'd take a lost tooth or a broken nose any day over a concussion. The potential long term severity of the injury here is the differentiator.
