at some point in your 30s you’re going to realize that your gardening obsession is just sports, or is it that your sports obsession was always just gardening?

I saw police detain a man and search his backpack. After, when I asked the police what happened, I was told the man had been “arrestable” and therefore could be searched. That’s not a thing. Here’s a refresher on what police can and can’t do. Procedure is important. thetyee.ca/News/2026/06...

"a watercourse of strong individuality. ... every year it nonchalantly collects its heavy tribute of lives. ... the men of the country regard it with a rueful respect as a creature that is insolently superior to their will. they have affectionate profane names for it." - hulbert footner (1912)

um I’m actually not horribly depressed and filled with despair, no I just need to listen to a sufficient amount of 2000s hip hop and r&b this week that’s all

A small group of us over at The Tyee have been working off the sides of our desks for nearly a year now to launch something very special. Now, I'm excited to share The Tyee Podcast! Listen wherever you get em shows.acast.com/the-tyee-pod...

VERY relatedly, The Tyee now has a bit of a reporting hole that we will need to fill. If you're a journalist who has knowledge of the BC interior and is open to do some work, please message me.

As a reader-funded publication, we’re always listening to what our audience wants. Now, you can listen to us, too. Introducing ✨The Tyee Podcast✨ — a deep dive into the stories shaping the West Coast, because Canada needs more B.C. 🧵

one afternoon, three Tyee editors received three different pitches within three minutes of each other — each signed by a similarly generic name. it was all but confirmed it was the work of generative AI. so, I got on a call with the ‘journalist’ to track down answers. for @thetyee.ca:

If I were Humpty Dumpty I would have broken in such a way that all the kings horses and kings men would have easily put me back together, in fact I might not have even broken at all if you think about it

“For my whole career, I’ve operated under the assumption — which was maybe naive — that the ideas and prose in a pitch are fundamentally attached to the person who sent it. Post-ChatGPT, there’s no sense that any one sentence is created by a human.” thetyee.ca/News/2026/05...
