I feel a little bit insane for thinking as I walk down the street on a February night, with cherry trees in full bloom: 'I wish I was in Winnipeg.'

Yeah! We were looking for a couch a few years ago and had no idea about this place!

Olympics Dog was chasing the motorized camera they have to capture the competitors at the finish line, then decided to chase some competitors instead

This morning in my local paper there were three stories in a row:
-the death of a local triathlete in a hit-and-run
-the death of a toddler in a stroller in a marked crosswalk
-a car plunging off a cliff

Watch out for yourselves out there, because drivers sure aren't watching out for anyone.

Slight correction: in my description I called it a street and it's actually a stroad. It's also the only reasonable way for me to get to that library branch, which is also the closest one to my house.

Nighttime traffic on Blanshard, a street that feels bad to walk on and has no transit

Can we move the Emily Carr Library so that I don't feel like I'm risking my life every time I have to go there? #yyj

call me a carceral urbanist or whatever but i think that if you murder an entire family with your SUV, at the very least, you should never be allowed to drive again

I don't think I've ever found a sitcom couple as loathsome to watch as these two.

I'd include Jim and Pam but I barely watched the office, so they get a pass.

The Tumbler Ridge shooting is already fuelling anti-trans hate in Canada | Xtra Magazine Bad actors on the right are leaping to connect the shooter’s trans identity to the violence

NEW from me today:

Tumbler Ridge is mourning a horrific loss. But how the shooter's identity is being talked about online, and the dangerous links being made to trans people at large, will have resounding and dangerous impacts in the months and weeks to come.

I'm pretty sure they can't ask us for shit in Canada..

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure you can't legally do this in Canada...

We clapped in the newsroom when we heard this 👏

Sharp cuts coming to B.C. government spending Finance Minister Brenda Bailey says the government knows it needs to get its $11.2-billion deficit under control.

Any chance we can ever stop with this? Why does it have to be 'the new normal'?

Hopefully Francisco’s lawyer can delay his deportation long enough for the health industry to be shamed into providing care, or he gets MSP coverage. He can pay out of pocket for care but it’s $$$. Here’s a fundraiser going to help cover his medical/ legal/ rent for a bit

Dark mode lessens the screen glare and is way easier for me to look at, personally.

A closeup of Bilbo’s face as the Bag End doorbell rings loudly.

View from the front door of Bag End, two dwarves are standing on the stoop announcing themselves “Bifur and Bofur, at your service master hobbit”.

Medium closeup of a perplexed Bilbo, his thoughts so scattered all he can stammer out is “Bofur??” Bofur responds “Yes, Mr Baggins…”

Bofur doing a crotch chop yelling “BOFUR DEEZ NUTS”

I put more work into this than anyone in their right mind would, and I blame/credit the good folks at @rangedtouch.bsky.social for putting the thought into my head.

I think it's the wrong strategy to argue that Alberta separatism is bad for the economy or for everyday Albertans. They don't care. They'll do it anyways. Call them losers and traitors and fanatics, stop arguing as if they might see the light

I don't want parties in municipal politics at all

This is fucked.
