May this year treat you kindly, little horse #lunarnewyear #yearofthehorse #digitalart

Huh. Prison seems to be a better unifying experience than education, but also I think this experience proves if basic needs are taken care of, a positive and more equitable social community grows. Gifted article, i’m a sucker for different perspectives. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/22/o...

Whitecaps won last night tho

I swear to god, if anyone asks what she was wearing I am going to lose my mind. I’m ready to battle come election time. Just point me to who I’m volunteering for. Let’s get this done.

I am SO MAD. @seanorr.bsky.social @ptfry.bsky.social @wazaroff.bsky.social Figure out your political cope-green-onecity differences, check your egos, and find a way to unite and FIX THIS CITY. We literally will not survive another 4 years of Arrive By Car policy.

NO! @rhifaux.bsky.social sending you much love and all the healing

It is my understanding that if you buy stolen property and it is discovered as stolen, the item is given back to its rightful owner and you don’t get your money back. But you can sue the person who sold it to you. i feel that is relevant here. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

We may not have Gold, but we still have Democracy.

for all those Vancouverites who were watching the hockey game today I think you’re entitled to be bereavement and “it’s February and sunny outside” leave from your office.

I overheard my daughter’s talking once my older one was telling her younger sibling that “girls can’t be doctors” and right before I was about to lose my mind on them she continued “they‘re called doctresses”

I was wondering if it was too soon to get the snow tires off the car. 😬

I think I need a day where there’s nothing scheduled. I’m pretty sure I haven’t had one of those since Covid.

Why is there a course drop deadline? Like say a kid takes a course, struggles and gets a bad grade and then like right at the end goes “nope“. And then the bad grade doesn’t appear. The consequence is …

I’m a home owner!!! I approve this. And with the number of my neighbours who play the tax deferral game and just openly talk about it something needs to be done. 500 ppl showed up to ask the Vancouver city council to tax them more on their properties so… DO IT. Tax WEALTH. Not income.

*Sobbing* Make this a national policy, if a school shooting occurs temporary alternate facilities are provided for survivors trauma processing. This needs to be the norm regardless of what political party has power in whatever province. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Oof Ramadan hitting during the olympics has gotta be a tough situation for some.

My kids have said “look if they can have Star Trek conventions they could at least TRY to have a musical fan convention”

Oh what a sh*t show. my 12 year old waited for 3 hours ALONE for her friends. they show up, text her she waits at the entrance. And instead of looking for her, they went shopping and got autographs without her. We just patched her up from being rejected by highschool. I don’t know what to do.

Ok so *pat on the back* nerdy friends on how much culture had changed. My 12-yo-daughter is at FAN EXPO Vancouver on her own because her friends are stuck coming from whistler. But she feels completely comfortable and safe and supported by all the people there (MEN and WOMEN) Proud of y‘all.

I snuck into FanExpo this morning (mom emergency, volunteers totally understood). But as much as that is not my vibe, the artists alley?!?!? APPARENTLY I’m very into independent nerdy art (which I won’t post her for obv reasons). Better than circle craft. Must go next year. Nerds are the best!

Today is Flag Day? I quite like CANADA’s flag. But I do wish we used this symbol more which belongs to the airforce just because I think it’s quite lovely too.

It is amazing how much more energy you have when you’re not under the weight of crushing grief/anxiety/depression etc. Plus sunshine.

oh come on CityNews! Not two days later… a fatal pedestrian collision?!?!

His tail is even making a question mark

I’m not crying…you’re crying www.bbc.com/news/article...

I want one of these for every single sport ever. Especially for the summer Olympics, and the steeplechase.

Vancouverites, question: do you lock your front door when you are home? I used to when I lived in an apartment, but I keep forgetting now I’m in a duplex. And everyone keeps treating me like I’m crazy.

Please continue to spread this. The needs of all these families are going to be a lot for a long time. gofund.me/3b27b4a81

It was easier when there was sunshine

I see you city news! Good job. No VEHICLES are killing pedestrians. Its the DRIVERS

When it comes to Halloween candy or treats that come into our house, I generally tell the kids have as much as you’d like but don’t make yourself sick. My daughter had cake yesterday and came to me and said “oh. No. I broke snack rule number 1” Let’s just say she’s NEVER doing that again.

I struggle with words at the best of times, which is why I turn to authors and artists to help me communicate. This is exactly it.

Omg I need some just wholly positive news

Children were not built for this.

I know with all the news today it feels like it doesn’t matter. But my kid did NOT get into the highschool program she wanted and has been working for. And will never know why. And is broken because of it. And she’s 12.

I can appreciate as a Canadian that school shootings are so rare that the prime minister suspends his entire schedule over this tragedy.

A message from Trent Ernst, the only reporter who lives in Tumbler Ridge

I want the province to set up and generously fund a mental health clinic in tumbler ridge for a minimum of 5-10 years.

Age verification? My back hurts.

I need 3 days to get used to new meds and I’m having trouble arranging that. Doc said “you don’t get weekends?“ 1) I’m a mom 2) I tutor math 3) I volunteer (tutor, guides, soccer, theatre, Red Cross) People who have 3 unencumbered consecutive days WTF? this is a lifestyle I cannot relate to

My 12yo finds out tomorrow if she got into the highschool she wants, she says “I’m nervous but not like butterflies in my stomach but like bees in my legs and ants in my arms” 😬 So. This is a lot.

PLEASE put in your service contract a guaranteed uptime. The NUMBER and LENGTH OF TIME charge point terminals sit broken in Vancouver is astronomical. BC hydro does a vastly better job and should be rewarded for that.

I was supposed to plant my garden before last frost. I don’t think that happened this year.

We built it

From my very wise middle aged friend: Look some days are “doin-stuff” days an some are just “don’t fall apart” days Both are valid

Talking to my doctor about my fears around getting Botox for migraine: “It’s not the needles is the idea of putting literal poison in my body in a non-reversible non-extractable way“ OMG is that how anti-vaxxers feel?
