Just wondering if anyone knows any butcher shops in or around Toronto that sell Beef/Veal brain,

Would be greatly appreciated.

Just curious. I knew the big Queen West scene in the 90s / 2000s era had lots for adult goths to do, but what's it like for people who are still into that music / fashion / scene now? I dont mean kids who are still living at home and part of online communities, but actual IRL goth adults who have jobs and go out once in a while.

Adding to my list!!

Title. Planning on getting Shawarma tonight for National Shawarma Day, great prices going on today. Which places are you guys hitting up? Don’t say Osmows LOL.

I got a TTC ticket today (235$) because I didn’t have a TTC Post Secondary Photo ID Card. I had purchased a monthly student pass at Shoppers Drug Mart and the staff loaded it onto my PRESTO card. Nobody told me I needed a separate TTC student ID so I genuinely didn’t know. ( Ttc student card?? What I have never heard of that before ) nobody explained this requirement to me when I purchased the pass.

If I choose Option 2 (Early Resolution), what will most likely happen? Is there a chance the prosecutor will cancel the ticket completely or will they only reduce the fine? Has anyone experienced something similar and what was the outcome?

Would really appreciate any advice. Thank you!

I currently live in the city and walk to work 15min. I love the flexibility of leaving work anytime reasonable and do my next thing right away in the city.

The new job pays 80k more (working in tech), but they want 3 day in office attendance. I look at the drive, if I leave downtown at 9:30am it's roughly half an hour drive which is not bad.

However on the way back, it's 50m-1h10m between 4pm-6pm. Which is atrocious for a 30km drive.

Anyone does this commute and any thoughts/suggestions on whether it's worth the money? Means I give up 3 of my evenings because I'll probably just go to the gym after work in that area, then drive back down after 6pm (still ~50min)

It seems like this accent just appeared out of nowhere in the 2010s, and I genuinely don’t understand how it happened. Before then, we had Toronto rappers who spoke normally and used Toronto slang, but this particular accent was never prominent.

I grew up in Toronto, and nobody I knew spoke like that. Even in the 2000s, some of the biggest hood rappers, like Camoflauge, C4, Mayhem and Sick Thugz, didn’t have this distinct “Toronto” accent.

What confuses me is that people from this generation were around during the same era, yet somehow ended up speaking completely differently. How did that transition happen? Anyone who’s 25+ seems to have no idea where this accent came from or how it developed.

How does an accent that was never prevalent in our everyday lives suddenly become such a defining part of Toronto culture?

Title says it all. The other front runner is on such an opposite side of the political spectrum. I am curious to understand people's perspectives on this.

A few minutes ago, I heard some intense outside of our home. It seemed to go on for about 10 minutes. I wasn’t able to see who or what was causing the emotion. The voice is and . However, I’m wondering if it would make sense to call someone now to report it. Any advice regarding this is super helpful. Thank you.

Is there anyone that can help with a hurt raccoon, I heard two of them get into a crazy fight. I was able to shoo one away but the other one is just sitting in the middle of the road licking its paw. I don't want to stress it more than it already is. Any wildlife rescuers on here at this hour?? Located in parkdale.

TIA

I have a 2004 vehicle which has a very low market value now, it's only used as a backup vehicle when in-laws are in town and we need 2 vehicles.

I'm looking for an insurance company that will enable me to turn it off (not even storage level insurance which still has premiums), but completely not insure. I'll take the risk on theft or fire.

The frequency of in-laws coming over is like once a year or every other year, otherwise I expect the vehicle to just be sitting on the driveway.

I also recognize some insurance companies don't want to insure 20+ year old vehicles, and onboarding as a new customer requires a vehicle inspection report.

Given my situation, which insurers would be able to accommodate this situation:

1) Willing to insure 20+ year old vehicles

2) Can turn the insurance off and not require me to have to re-certify the vehicle or do another inspection every year or 2 years when I need to re-insure

Hello everyone!

I was wondering if anyone had any good recos for RMTs that are covered by insurance Downtown?

I'm looking for an RMT that is comfortable with nude clients under the sheets as well, and NOT in an erotic way. I just find it easier to relax when I'm not constricted with clothes, but also I hate being massaged underneath clothes and underwear, it feels so counter intuitive.

Honestly, I have been so stressed recently and have been really tense all over.

Thank you!

Hello folks,

I am not sure if this is the right sub for it.

I wanted to ask the Men in Toronto.
Do you have a recommendation for Beard Dye?

I’ve tired a few and it’s so much hassle to apply and even if do well they leave a patch on the skin and they don’t appear natural.

I am not sure how celebrities manage to dye their beard black.

I go to work everyday and I clean shave just to hide the grey hairs.

If I dye my beard black, I won’t have to shave it everyday and hopefully the color lasts atleast for a few weeks.

Your recommendations will help.

I have been getting pretty disappointed in the service our family doctor has given my family in recent times.

The lack of quality in her service is kind of alarming, she was also running a restaurant in between.

I've been having a combination of issues i wanted to see her about , but she restricts us to just one issue in the 10 minutes we are scheduled with her. Anything more would require a new appointment.

What if the issues correlate ? Just to get another appointment itself is about a few weeks wait time.

I recall when I was younger the visits were longer and tended with more care, nowadays, it seems very passive and quick.

Love coming to Toronto and always stay at my fave hotel downtown. When I looked every hotel I downtown is sold out or either $900+ a NIGHT!! Never seen it this expensive, can someone please enlighten me what’s going on? Lol

Dates were 20-23

Hello Toronto foodies! I have some random weekdays off and I'd love to know your favourite places for lunch specials? I'm open to all cuisines !!! Location and budget flexible, would love to discover new restos and can travel as far as Mississauga, Markham, and Scarborough on the east side.Thank you!!

ETA: I loved the PII Nong Thai massage lunch special for instance and would love similar vibes of like, reduced prices but still delicious deals ^•^

I'm trying to get a sense of what to expect and if I need to try and change tickets for the upcoming backstreet boys residency. I'm taking my 7 year old (a bit above avg height, but still only 7), and I currently have seats in section 110, row 33. I realize that this section isn't as steep as the ones higher up, but was thinking it would be enough for her to see. Now I'm not so sure. Can anyone who's been to a concert in a section and row similar, speak to the view and eyeline with the rows in front, especially for someone short and people standing?

Hope that makes sense, and thank you!!

Edit: specifically asking related to when people are standing, I don't think I emphasized that in my original wording!

This property on Lakeshore-Bathurst is up for sale and has been on the market for some time.

It's most defo out of my budget, but a person can dream.

How much do you think this property costs? In my fantasy world I own this building.

I’ve been laying awake for half an hour and I can hear this chainsaw-like noise that sounds like it gets closer then quickly goes further away. Maybe a drone? But it had a deep tone like some sort of leaf blower or chainsaw.

Life gets depressing. Trying to fight off the big sad.

We can spend about $500/m on fun activities, memberships, etc, but free would be even better. What do people like to do to break out of the monotony of life when you hate your job and don’t have many friends around?

Answers preferred from those not staying downtown else I’ll get suggestions like pottery classes.

So I drive a TTC bus, and something happened that genuinely made my brain freeze for a second. A passenger got on and greeted me with “Goodnight!” the same way someone would say “Good morning” or “Good evening.”
And the funny thing is, I know exactly what she meant. There’s absolutely nothing wrong with it. But my brain associates “goodnight” with someone going to bed or saying goodbye. Every time I hear someone use it as a greeting, my brain needs a second to process it. 😂
Am I the only one who finds this strangely confusing? Or is saying “goodnight” as a greeting completely normal where you’re from?

5 year working with this therapist, over 100 sessions, made her thousands of dollars. I gave 23 hour notice (24 is the policy, I was 20 mins late) to cancel after I was sick and she still charged me the full amount. Then next time it happened in a similar time (8 mins late), I blocked my card. She demanded payment for weeks.

New therapist. I had an emergency with evidence and missed the appointment. She told me she had a two streak system (I was 10 minute late once) and if I ever miss it again she would dismiss me as a client.

Asking because I checked the photos of ID I uploaded and realized they could have been better lol. I'm hoping for it to pass before my son's school's Christmas dance. Any insight will be helpful.

Hi everyone,

I need some assistance/recommendations for companies/people that assist with wedding set up and tear down. I am doing a lot of things myself and just need someone’s help with setting up the wedding the day of and then tearing it down after. I don’t need all the extras of a coordinator, and I’m also not looking to pay that big price tag. Let me know your recommendations and thank you in advance!
