Day 40 of the #BCGEUstrike btw

I know I’ve been posting a lot about this, but it’s telling of how this government looks at society that at the very moment Mark Carney can’t stop talking about nation-building projects, he’s throwing the biggest nationwide service-delivery network on the scrap heap because it doesn’t make money.

A white sign with black lettering taped to a railing that reads: "GOOD TOURISTS RESPECT LOCALS"

"I'm a tourist, and I support you, but I'm still going to cross the picket line!"
So... you don't support us?

The Vancouver Island Local History Society stands in solidarity with #BCGEU strikers, including those at the Royal BC Museum and BC Archives. Please do not cross their picket lines.

Strike Day 4 @davidebybc.bsky.social

If you're going to allow rent increases, you should probably pay public servants more

A meme macro image featuring the starts of Pawn Stars captioned: Top: "Landlords can raise their rent by 2.6%." Bottom: "Public servant pay? Best I can do is 1%."

Reminder that the affordability crisis will not go away if the government remains part of the problem. #bcpoli #BCGEU #BCPSAStrike

Day 3 of the #bcgeu strike done. Buckling down for the long haul.

Day 2 of the #bcgeu strike

Day 1 of the #bcgeu strike done

So disappointing

Archival work. So. Many. Staples.

This video has got it all: millions of dollars of stolen wealth, luxurious overindulgence, and a death that occurred under mysterious circumstances.

I'm a museum person with a YouTube channel and would love to chat ~

One minute you're being responsible and making a hearty and healthy home-cooked meal, the next you're on a bus downtown because your friends called and you can't resist the siren song of the pub

That's actually an invisible creature with big shining eyes up there saying hello

I found this so so interesting and thought yall might too!
TLDR; guy defrauds his billionaire employers, makes giant gifts to cultural institutions, and was found dead at 40 about two months ago.

YouTube video by christeah AI lets you "talk" to artifacts from the British Museum (unethical)

If you want to learn more about this ethical nightmare, I go on a rant here: youtu.be/DvzeOF_RzLI?...

@museumnext.com is platforming "The Living Museum" created by Jonathon Talmi at the Digital Museums Summit despite its glaring ethical issues (like letting you chat with culturally senstive items and even human remains!!) Guess I won't be attending any of their summits again

Screent shot of text that reads: “July 20 | Detecting Queer Lives In 19th and early 20th century Victoria, few homosexual people were known, since most kept their sexual orientation hidden and outwardly conformed to societal norms. In trying to detect queer lives from that time, we have varying kinds and strengths of evidence of their existence. Some queer and possibly queer individuals are buried at Ross Bay Cemetery, while others have connections to family members and associates who are. Tim Fitzthum, transcriber of Peter O’Reilly’s diaries, will share this new perspective. * The tour begins at 2pm We meet at the entrance gate on Fairfield Road at Stannard Avenue Cost is $2 for OCS members or $5 for non-members; cash or e-transfer

My friend Tim is giving this cool queer history tour in Ross Bay Cemetery this Sunday, #yyj #BChist
