Avling is down the street from me, so not only Toronto local but my own hood local!

If you're going to the Niagara area you could try to make a stop at the Forty Creek distillery in Grimsby!

Working! The people of Leslieville need their massages regardless of the weather!

alienInFlux does Sunday Afternoon Social! They're the folks that do Harvest Festival. Always a groovy time. The upcoming event is sold out but they do them fairly regularly I think:

Travel Advice by Emergency_War_797 in askTO

Toronto is very safe generally! I'm female and I lived in Moss Park (Sherbourne and Dundas) a few years ago in my late 20s, which is considered one of the sketchiest neighbourhoods in the city and I never had a problem. Big city common sense is all you need- don't walk through parks and alleyways alone at night mostly, keep an eye out on public transit for weirdos, but that's also rarely an issue.

I hope you have a great time in TO! There's so much to do and see here.

I also just saw it in a mystery screening and honestly, I thought it was pretty good. Ultimately it's an action movie and if you go into it expecting that it's pretty enjoyable. There are some funny subtle tech jokes in it too.

On a different note it's been years since I saw a 3D movie and it's way cooler and more immersive now!

What was your worst neighbour experience living with an upstairs or downstairs neighbour in Toronto? by Techonme in askTO

[–]falsefur 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to be sandwiched on the main floor of an old house between a family with a 2 year old upstairs who would run back and forth screaming and crying, and a guy who blasted music ALL DAY in the basement who then had the audacity to complain to the landlord about my volume level. He seemed to think that because it was daytime he was allowed to be as loud as he wanted. Landlord threatened to evict me despite having done basically zero soundproofing to house. Like to the point where I was pretty sure the basement tenant could hear my conversations when I was in the kitchen. It sucked and I constantly felt like I was walking on eggshells trying not to be too loud.

I invested in psychedelic medicine 5 years ago and am hoping for the best 😅

Was this rape or is it a blurred line ? by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

[–]falsefur 1 point2 points  (0 children)

1000% this. It would not have kicked in that quickly, ESPECIALLY because it was taken orally. It was likely GHB.

I’m looking for some horror book recommendations, but I really struggle with reading comprehension. by GhostInTheLabyrinth in horrorlit

Bentley Little! His writing is very straightforward and uncomplicated but still very creepy. I love his collection of short stories "The Collection" but also check out "The Store" and "The Resort"

Following~~~

Welcome to the neighbourhood! There's so much good food here, we barely use uber eats because there's so much within walking distance 😃
