If you are wondering how upzoning in Edmonton is going; when I moved into my place last year it was $1300 for a 1 bed. Now my landlord is offering a slightly larger unit for $1200. Its crazy! If I wasn't moving cities I'd be down there renegotiating my lease as we speak @growtogetheryeg.bsky.social

I'm fairly certain that someone on Strava has notifications set up for when I upload a new activity. Of all the platforms to have notifications, Strava? Really?

Here is some info for my fellow Edmonton residents for no particular reason: The strongest wind gust ever recorded in Edmonton was 146 km/h on Oct. 1, 1965. (It is very windy here in Alberta today)

Holy crap it's windy #YEGbike

Central #YEG friends: Atlas Medical Clinic in Garneau is accepting new patients! Super convenient location, and the doc I saw was lovely.

Will the world ever be Fergalicious again

The provincial government is imposing the largest property tax increase in Calgary’s history. Calgarians are facing more than double the increase of Edmonton. +$339 per home in Calgary. +$154 in Edmonton. Albertans deserve a system that is transparent, balanced, and fair.

Sick and tired - literally.

The math doesn't lie. Danielle Smith spent $17 million on "Alberta is Calling" to recruit new residents. But spent $0 on the infrastructure to support them. Now that the bills are due and the services are failing, she’s pointing the finger at the very people she invited. #ableg #canpoli #abpoli

Things that every classified listing should have: - dimensions - material/composition - item condition - the fucking location

do you stupid bitches miss Stuart Skinner yet

@bikeottawa.bsky.social has this great graphic on bike racks that manufacturers should take to heart bikeottawa.ca/wp-content/u...

Thanks, I hate them all 😵‍💫 #yegbike

I can’t believe it’s already been a year since I drained the hot water tank.

Police are looking for a grey or light blue SUV that was involved in a hit-and-run crash earlier this month. #yeg

Austerity AND a deficit? Sign me up! /s

Winnipeg councillor wants city to install permanent bike lanes on Wellington

Any #yegbike #yycbike friends want a super cute A-line dress? 100% cotton, has pockets, and cute bike block print/embroidery! Size small, bust 33-34”, waist 27-28”, hip 37-38”

I didn’t celebrate my birthday growing up. This year I’d like to do some activities that a typical kid would have at their party. I’m thinking magician/balloon artist, insects/reptiles, anything else??

They won't start with banning birth control. First they'll lie about it. Then dictate who can prescribe it, use it, fund it, in what forms, and for how long. Suddenly, your doctor won't call you back. I know this is what they'll do because it's what they're doing to transgender healthcare right now.

Stuck between a rock and a hard place: I’d like to go to the PWHL game in April for my birthday, but I don’t want to support Katz or OEG.

seeing how ppl try to use accusations ableism against black folks regarding the n word being said is exactly why black ppl don't trust so many "woke" and liberal type spaces. they get talked down to constantly like there aren't disabled black men and women who have to navigate the same things.

I bet the building wasn’t wearing high-vis… #yegbike #yeg

Well that sucked.

What’s with these hockey refs always missing too many men

Half of our agricultural land is used for beef that provides 3% of our calories. Nobody likes it when I bang my spoon on my high chair about this but eventually we need to grapple with it.

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but all permanent residents and temporary workers in Canada pay both federal and provincial taxes.

Hey it’s me, a racialized person born in Alberta to an immigrant parent, with trans and queer friends, saying that the UCP does not get to determine who belongs here. All of us, and the Albertans yet to come, deserve to be here. And we must stand with Indigenous people to honour treaty promises.

Smith talks of "flooding our borders." Catch the not-so-subtle framing there? This rhetoric would feel right at home somewhere else ... just can't put my finger on it ... www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

I am genuinely concerned that the UCP will outright ignore the results of the referendum on immigration and do whatever the hell they want anyway.

We have two P/T positions available at my work: Community Engagement & Marketing, and Assistant Store Manager. Starting pay for both is 20-25$/hour and have benefits. If you or someone you know is looking for work, feel free to let me know and I'll send over the link(s) to apply.

My bike was safe and sound! It was super cool (no pun intended) that there were other people cycling today.

Beautiful day for a ride! ❄️ #YEGbike

Riding my bike to SUB tomorrow - will my bike be safe locked up outside for ~30 minutes? What’s the bike rack situation like? #YEGbike

Should I ride my bike or snowshoe to work tomorrow? #YEGbike

A friend in the north end (Beaumaris) claims that EPS/CoE is bussing homeless folks from the core to Northgate and Castle Downs transit stations. Any validity in this? My first thought is that it’s Facebook community group bunk.

I feel bad for France :( Canada’s hockey team is stacked.

FYI you can rent the entirety of Galaxyland starting at a mere twenty thousand dollars.

After a week or so in Vancouver & Victoria, I truly admire all the people who bike in the rain/damp. I *loathe* cycling in the rain. I suppose it’s a matter of having the right gear. At the same time, though, they might be blown away that I cycle in -30c

Does anyone have a double stroller they would like to donate to a young mom with no means of transportation? #yeg #yegbaby #yegtoddler

Urbanism is about a lot more than getting around. Having places that people want to visit and spend time within is the real key to making a city great. Edmonton has too many big attractions and too few third spaces - the local attractions. Sprawl and car dependency don't help, nor does delivery.

Ironing board cargo rack! #carryshitolympics #biketooter #bikenyc #nyc

Sometimes I feel like I’m a fake queer. Not gay enough.

Kudos to all the #YVRbike people. I hate riding in the rain!

Officially a Bad Bunny fan now ✨

It’s bee nice enough that I’ve been taking my acoustic gravel/hybrid bike to commute and man am I ever out of shape #YEGbike
