Never knew until now that the "OHHH!" in this track is sampled from Andrew Dice Clay. I'm cackling

A tree looking very green before Second beach at Stanley Park.

The underside of the Lions Gate Bridge from below on the south side.

The Vancouver Rowing Club.

Nothing like a spontaneous walk around Stanley Park.

Had to grab a copy of Opera 12 from the internet archive to get into an iDRAC with truly ancient SSL support. Now patched up to modern cipher standards.

Very true, but let's not make perfect the enemy of fucking amazing.

Clearly I need to be the fentanyl czar, for biblical reasons.

Since it's the 50th anniversary of Jaws, it's probably shark year.

city councillors when nobody but septuagenarian homevoters show up: this is the finest tradition of local democracy at work

city councillors when literally anyone else shows up: well that's not REAL public consultation

Oh fine here you go.

Fry voting present is worse. Orr said more than just representing no speakers and talked about the need for non market housing as this project doesn’t have any. And the motion passed and I’m happy about that.

I have 100,001 unread Gmails.

In personal news… I’m sooo far away from inbox 0 😎

There’s no ethical way to support Rowling or HP. She uses every penny she gets to hurt trans women.

I love Chicago so much

I hope you feel better soon.

So happy for the Arsenal women - Champions of Europe!

It's a bad idea to say phishing is somehow a "zero-day".

Yes they’re still running.

This one hurt me. 😀

It’s been a deeply weird couple of days that made me decide to close twitter due to the takes. 🤐

Ah yes, the Leaving Vancouver letters. Good reminder that Metro Vancouver has one of the lowest rates of out-migration of all Canadian metro areas.
People seem to like Vancouver and tend to stay. And some of the ones that do end up leaving do so reluctantly. (And are vocal about it.)

It's truly unfortunate that an NES going away has broken the brains of certain millenial pundits but perhaps not so surprising.

What a week in the ol’ workplace. All I can say is don’t use chatgpt to make important decisions.

Orange background with the phrases "We did it!", "bus = saved", and "+5% increase in bus service." Top left shows "Movement: Metro Vancouver Transit Riders." White sparkles decorate the image.

WE DID IT! We SAVED the bus!

TransLink's 2025 Investment Plan is out, and it confirms that our collective efforts have paid off: no bus cuts until 2027 and a 5% increase in bus service starting this September!

BEHOLD WHAT NIMBYISM HAS WROUGHT

Classism runs deep in Vancouver's planning systems. This blatantly uneven access to amenities should shock the conscience.

The city has been built like this for 100 years. And the tool is exclusionary zoning.

Pleasantly happy it looks like the two folks I voted for are going to win in the CoV by election.

In line to vote early for the Vancouver election.

COMMISSION REQUEST!

Yeah it would be Crave.
