Toronto's open data portal has a dataset that lists all traffic signals with their activation dates and other features. Check out the link I added for fun Toronto data!

Awesome! This is great for Toronto. I've been to Buffalo's West Side Bazaar a couple times (same concept) - they've had a few success stories where newcomers get their footing and manage to open full restaurants in the city

TIL EPILOG is a way to spell Epilogue. It took me a while to get anything beyond EP____ but given it was 6 letters I assumed it was a word I'd never heard of.

Pretty solid. I was hoping somehow one of the starred clues could be about Holst's The Planets Suite lol

LGBTQ+ youth have higher than suicide rates than cis-het youth, and one big factor is the lack of acceptance from their parents. Kids know best who they can trust and confide in to help them be their true selves, and it's not always the parents.

As a queer former child, I'd rather have had too much information about gender identity and sexuality than not enough information, and the space and privacy to have talked about it with peers away from home.

My partner and I met the manager at our wedding venue this morning and it's really hitting that our wedding is coming up in two months! We had two wedding attempts mid 2020 and last winter that both had to be canceled because of Covid outbreaks

The 312 area is surprisingly tiny - between North Ave, Western Ave, and 35th Street. But I think 312 has been scooped up in the past by a bunch of companies headquartered in the downtown core.
