The city is prepping for the removal of the traffic deck at Broadway and Cambie and this curb cut and bollard situation at 8th & Ash is laughable. Basically assuming cars are going to be turning so quickly they would have been up on 2m of the existing sidewalk. Traffic enforcement. Now

At the very least, it needs to be regulated that purchasing any media - a game, a movie, an album, etc. - means you are entitled to download a copy of it to keep and use in perpetuity. If a company revokes a product or no longer provides DRM, consider it lapsed and free to share.

It is an easy question: The House that Heaven Built by the Japandroids. Easy to sing in any range, has a fucking magical nonverbal shouty hook

'We're averaging two Watergates per day' is a hell of a thing to say about your own administration

Outflow pattern sets up overnight in the Fraser Valley, could draw some wildfire smoke into the Lower Mainland for the first time this season by Tuesday morning.

Not just a cocksucker, he's a...

OTrain Line 4 is wild - it costs the same as a bus fare to have a private train, and you get to South Keys 4x slower so you can really luxuriate in the experience.

'God damn Canada, why do you have to take everything so seriously? We were just being funny about making you a vassal state. Can't you take a fucking joke?' The whole RW project right now is tied up in the language of abusers. Everything is gender, etc.

Really sick pattern from the ABC majority: amend motions to make them completely toothless, then vote in favour and force any councillor with principles to vote against or abstain. Utter garbage tactics that the next council (or province) must put an end to.

During Pride Month, no less.

Put the CEOs of United, Delta and American in a cage match on the White House lawn to decide which hub airport gets fucked over first.

Now kids, we all know that when cartoon characters die, they're back again the very next week. That's why I'm presenting this sworn affidavit that Q will never, ever, ever return!

Jen Gerson: "The UCP has become a party of snivelling, weak little thieves who operate by night."

Press F to pay respects

My neighbour has a habit of getting food delivered after a night out, but falling asleep before it arrives. Incredible drunk choices were made here, still on the doorstep at 8 AM. Even the raccoons didn't want it.

A must read. Serious questions raised about the competency of Elections Alberta. They were warned, in detail, a month before they acted. Meanwhile, the private information of millions of Albertans was wide open. Incredible. This may be the biggest privacy breach in Canadian history.

Following the news with my Bluesky friends

A new contender for best headline

It’s hard to blame woke DEI when the military is losing a war because of the straits.

NY Post says Trump told them 1) won't rule out US troops in Iran and 2) "I don't care about polling". That's a bold strategy, Cotton, let's see how it plays out for him.

3 killed in action as part of "Operation Epic Fury"

One City is now adopting the boomer email style of William Azaroff and I really worry about cringing and rolling my eyes that hard as a millennial approaching 40.

When a goal is clearly, unmistakably audible in an otherwise quiet neighbourhood at 6:30 AM

What is going on with the price of chocolate in Canada? I swear all of these were regularly $3.50-$4.00 CAD a month ago.

What in the @radiatoryang.bsky.social mini game...

LLMs are designed to be sycophants because that's how the execs expect to be spoken to. Never questioned or challenged, only obsequiousness.

Côte-Nord stubbornly hanging on to the cold is on brand.

Tapping the sign again bsky.app/profile/aelk...

"moot is in the epstein files" is the completely true sentence that has finally convinced me this is all an extremely stupid simulation and that we're all being used to power a robot overlord's game gear or something

Fuck.

They broke their oath of allegiance and should resign. At minimum, be turfed from caucus.

Canadian-Registered & Certified G650

There are Canadian registered G500 and G600s. As far as I know Transport Canada hasn't certified the G700 or G800 because no Canadian has purchased one and applied to register it here. Good luck to all the regional airlines in America flying CRJs and DHC-8s though 🫡

Instantly recognizable to anyone who walks or cycles around a city, though usually the driver threatens to kill you with their car.

We've had this for decades, it's called CANPASS. The government took it away as an option for commercial passengers in 2018 since everyone was getting Nexus instead. It's still around for private jet passengers.

If we had a halfway decent opposition party in Canada, they’d endorse the words Carney used today, and then hammer him relentlessly on implementation or lack thereof.

It's incredible the number of times in the past year we've thought 'THIS is the moment Trump touches the stove' and basically nothing happens. We're now at 'directly threatening to end the post-war American hegemony with hostility towards/invasion of allies' and there are yet to be consequences.

Cool cool cool. My read of Star Trek is 'fully automated luxury gay space communism', kind of the polar opposite of whatever this lumpy racist wants.

There was much hand-wringing at my alma mater of naming the Geology dept "Earth Sciences" b/c grads would be disadvantaged when it came to mining/petro jobs. Of course it didn't turn out that way, and the dept has made a name for itself in geohazards - extremely and increasingly relevant!

Looking forward to heading back to the office tomorrow!

oh my god it actually was a coup assisted by the US, 10/10 no notes bsky.app/profile/labu...

Evergreen

2026 is starting off with real 2016-level bad vibes. What's next? The unexpected death of an internationally beloved icon?

Hearing wild news about a violent and vengeful dictator with a stranglehold on the local politics and media through the use of illegal concentration camps and a lack of respect for the law or the people he governs

I know several oil barons, I’ve had the oil and gas industry as clients in a past life: none of them want the Venezuelan oil, it’s dog shit quality and getting the PDVSA fields up to modern standards would take 20 years! It’s just trump being stuck in 1987

Millennial Canadian gays giving Wolf Parade's "I'll Believe in Anything" a major boost.

On a Hope facebook group, residents of Hope say they have heard a massive sound coming down "t sounded like the mountain was coming down." Others say they have heard the same noise. The dark is likely to obscure any landslides taking place.
