This is my face at discovering that the TTC tunnels between Eglinton West and St George got 5G cellular service at some point, and I never noticed until now because my old phone was 4G only. On the one hand, more possibilities for distractions when I take the TTC, on the other hand this probably spells the end of the quiet comedy of watching people be on a phone call¹ as the southbound train pulls out of Eglinton West.

¹ I was going to say 'be on their phones', but that's ambiguous these days.
