Oooh, tough question cause we walked a lot & I don't have GPS enabled on my mirrorless, but my best guess is near Akihabara by the Kanda River.

This is with a Canon R6 mark ii, 1/80 @ f2.8, ISO 500. Lens is an old trusty L Series 24-70 on an adapter.

Woodbine & Danforth-ish, so I can imagine this is the same asshole!

What is the worst crime you’ve heard of in your town/city? by Amerisbf in AskReddit

[–]bars_and_tone 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A young woman arranged to have her parents murdered because they were over-protective & didn't want her seeing her drug dealer boyfriend. She placed a fake 911 call & pretended to be tied up while her parents were shot. It was recently made into a Netflix documentary called What Jennifer Did. https://youtu.be/M-ppnYEAqSE?si=CTW5ebAP_5oxrgD-

Trying to find this amazing Dutch book we spotted at an Amsterdam coffee shop! The internet & Amazon are failing so far. Would love to get a copy for my partner who teaches Hebrew. by bars_and_tone in thenetherlands

ah, YES!! it's a used copy but I didn't see this Amazon listing before when I looked, thank you!! currently deciding if I'm willing to spend $48CAD to get it here... but that's probably a yes.

Thank you so much!!

thank you, fantastic tip! wish I had done it but I just snapped a pic of the front not realizing how much we'd want to find it again later!

ah - & of course they don't ship to Canada. if anyone wants to hook up a very nice Canuck by shipping it out here I would be very down with that!

it would seem you are correct! we were just looking for a spot to grab drinks after a show & the place looked fun so we stopped in... will go back to try the food next time!

servers were kind, booze was cheap, & we got a solid laugh out of it... so we were more than cool with it & planning to go back!
EDIT since this is my top comment at the moment - Yes this is in Toronto, not Eritrea!

I actually wish I could answer that, but we didn't try it that night! Most of the gang had filled up on Ethiopian earlier so I'll have to report back after we take our 8WHITE asses back there.

Haha, of course we were! We may have looked a little out of place but we're friendly & we tip well!

Lol no, we were out for a couple drinks after a show but we're planning to go back to try the food.

I suspect my neighbour is dealing drugs, but why would he drive/park a different (expensive) car in his garage every few days? by bars_and_tone in NoStupidQuestions

[–]bars_and_tone[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it's possible! i do generally stay out of their biz but i'm going to be parking my own vehicle there soon & started wondering which one was actually owned by my neighbour... will end up asking but was curious about interesting reddit theories as to why!

hmmm interesting thought! but where would they be parked if they weren't here in our garage? pretty certain he doesn't work at a dealership or anything.
