If AI succeeds, we need universal basic income, and if AI fails, we need universal basic income. Also, we should have implemented UBI decades ago when working class incomes first decoupled from productivity growth.

Stop Ken Sim's budget cuts. Protect our community's services and programs. I've added my voice to the outcry and you should too. Send a letter to city council: share.nwmd.social/s/TFTIr1NR Seeing this city finally mobilize against its own inertia is invigorating! #StopSim #Vancouver #YVR #VanPoli

Manso arándano

Not looking forward to next week, when I'll have to somehow explain to my dog that we're waiting an extra hour to go outside, when it's already dark at the park. Fun times.

BUT WHERE'S THE 'I'M NOT A ROBOT' BUTTON, REALTOR.CA?

How many days should pass after your dog ATE SHIT OFF THE STREET to feel OK and let her kiss you again? 🫠

Appreciation day for the Enanitos Verdes.

Redescubrir el té con leche es un abrazo de mi abuela.

I see you're waving the pride flag right there, what do you identify with?🏳️‍🌈 Purple. I definitively identify with purple 💜

Protected bike lanes protect everyone:

They would if they could. Because they can. And they are.

This morning I've been blessed by the Gods of Poop when both dogs went at the same time, and RIGHT NEXT to a garbage can. This will never occur again and I shall think back at this moment with nostalgia in the years to come.

Esta es la escena del truco en el cómic. Con razón castearon tipos de 60+ en la serie cuando los personajes se supone que estaban en sus 40s. Dejar de fumar como generación nos hizo bien. #Eternauta #ElEternauta

'Sacado de quicio' y 'unhinged' tienen no sólo sentidos similares (un estado de locura) pero, además, ambos se refieren al eje de una puerta descolocada. Nada suuuper revelador, pero recién hice la conexión y me pareció curioso.

Amo cómo el Eternauta está reviviendo una conversación histórica nacional importante, y cómo está tomando la memética argenta por asalto. #Argentina #ElEternauta #Oesterheld #dictadura #desaparecidos #abuelas #MiPais

What is a neutrino, you ask? It's the space occupied between the excitement I feel when I've managed to score the job of my dreams, and the imposter syndrome kicking in.

Here's a final look at where the pollsters ended on their final national polls Overall, Canada's pollsters continue to be very good at their jobs Special congratulations to the Mainstreet team this election!

One of Mark Carney's first priorities should be depolarizing our politics and protecting us from foreign-funded disinformation and other deliberate attempts at division. The best way to do that? Electoral reform. #cdnpoli www.nationalobserver.com/2025/04/30/o...

Under Jagmeet Singh, the NDP went from 44 seats and 19% of the vote in 2015 to 7 seats and less than 6% tonight. They have one seat east of Winnipeg, and the next prime minister is a centrist banker. They will say "dental care" a lot, but it is hard to see a very positive legacy.

That's the coldest hug I've seen given to a partner. Both of them... It was cordial at most. #MarkCarney #CanadaElections #Canada

Election day, peeeeeeps! Go and vote. Vote with your heart, vote with empathy and vote with political rage. Vote for societal betterment, vote for justice, vote for our future. Vote for our children, vote for our rights, vote for our neighbors. Go and vote. #ElectionsCanada #cdnpoli #Canada #vote

Devastating news of the tragic events of senseless hate that happened moments ago, during a celebration of culture of our Canadian Filipino neighbours 🇵🇭 In rage we stand by your community during the long search for justice. This is not the Canada us immigrants have built. #vancouver #yvr #Filipino

*Listens to a random podcast* Sigh... *Adds yet another book to the 'to read' list that she'll never get around to reading*

When you can see all the red flags around you, but it's freezing and you just need something to wrap yourself in to keep warm. I could be talking about a romantic relationship, or the least worse candidate in an election, or a potential boss.

I can't think of someone enjoying more being themselves than Pedro Pascal is enjoying being Pedro Pascal.

Encargué 5 kg de yerba Playadito de Pampa Direct (honestamente, pensando que estaba comprando 10 paquetes de 1 kg, NO 10 packs de 500 gramos, pero me KB por no leer bien, I guess🫠) e hice la cuenta de cuánto uso vs cuánto me costó. CADA MATE ME SALE ≈ 50 CENTAVOS DE DÓLAR WAAAAT

Vengo por los memes del último episodio de #LastOfUs.

The skies have finally cleared, so I excitedly put my dog's bed in the sun under the window. She looked cute so I took a picture, only to notice now that she was absolutely avoiding the sun and maximizing the shady strips. It's not even hot here in Canada. My Mexican pup is broken.

Bueno, me puse las pilas y creé listas para mis 41 followings, y mi vida mejoró en un 0.0024% Ey, es un montón, all things considered.

Veo a todes en IG compartir el video de Dustin Hoffman sobre 'cómo descubrió la objetivización de las mujeres' al realizar un rol donde interpretaba a una mujer, como si fuera un ícono feminista. Todos saben que Dustin Hoffman es un RANCIO, no? NO??? 🤦‍♀️

I would love for @jmcelroy.bsky.social to find and interview some of the 404 people in Van who voted for Rollergirl.

40% increase in voter turnout from the 2017 by-election. I love when my people get politicized! It was a long time coming to shake us up from this civilian slumber. Lets make our voices heard! Hopefully it's only the beginning #proud #vanpoli #YVRPolitics #yvr #VancouverVotes #vanelxn25
