Hand-sewing is my "something to occupy my hands while watching tv" hobby. I usually take shirts that I buy at a thrift store and customize them (side panels to make them fit better, add lacy pieces, etc.).

If we are going to get off of our fossil fuel addiction and create walkable spaces everywhere, we're all going to have to care about this.

In 2025, I'm shocked by how many places still don't have fully accessible sidewalks. Safeway in Lethbridge recently did a massive renovation, but couldn't find the budget to replace the one section of sidewalk that prevents someone in a wheelchair being able to easily wheel straight from the sidewalk to the door - no, sir, you stay on the parking lot where it's easier for cars to run over you!

I do that with shopping carts and wheeled flats that are left blocking the sidewalk where I'm trying to walk. Now it blocks cars. Seems fair. :)
