Community food pantry, South Lancaster
Nice selection! This is the first time I've seen a food pantry rather than a tiny library.

Big black bird
Saw this a few minutes ago - at first I thought it was an immature bald eagle because it was so large, but it was black. The wingspan was about six feet, and it flew between me and the tree so I could judge the size well. It didn't appear to be a turkey vulture, which is the only black bird of that size that I see around here. It was like a really big raven and very beautiful and graceful. Near Akwesasne, Ontario

Sweet Pepper Klopek and Burnaby Q. Orbax, Monsters of Schlock
Sweet Pepper Klopek and Burnaby Q. Orbax, Monsters of Schlock, at Lola's Pub and Grub, October 7, 2025
The Monsters of Schlock and other entertainers, like Neil E. Dee, did a Jim Rose style sideshow where they did things like staple dollar bills to each other. They also do science shows for children. Orbax, as Jason Thomas, is a physics instructor at the University of Guelph. They both hold Guinness Book of Records for "The most baking trays buckled over the head in one minute by a team of two" (55).

Rainbow crosswalk
Normally a crosswalk resurfacing wouldn't make news but the City of Cornwall, Ontario, put out an announcement when they redid the paint on the rainbow crosswalk opened earlier this year on an intersection on the downtown streets Pitt and First. Since rainbow crosswalks have been removed by the state of Florida and now Greg Abbott, governor of Texas, seems to be trying to do the same thing, the city must have wanted to reassure people that it wasn't being removed.
Here it is sparkling in the rain after the new paint job:
