BC blueberries are so good

Tonight July 14, 6:30pm @ Big Little Science Centre, we're pleased to welcome Mike O’Reilly, City Councillor and 2026 mayoral candidate, to discuss active transportation in #Kamloops. Your presence helps demonstrate how many people care about cycling in Kamloops, please join us and bring a friend!

Ramming a car off the road, DUIs, 39 speeding tickets. What does it take to revoke someone's drivers licence? Why do people like this have a "right" to drive ever again?

Having to wear an N95 indoors again, this smoke is so bad

Well that's not good

So here’s the consequences of our energy “future” in the here and now: I’ve turned on lights because the dark smoke from Boston Bar fire over 100 km away has moved into our valley. The air purifiers have been turned on so the three of us living with asthma can be ok indoors.

Watching the Shuswap Rd fire out my window two bombers dropping retardant. No wind not spreading up the mountain thankfully 🔥 #kamloops @kamscan.bsky.social

The BC Chamber of Commerce argues for a new approach to support transit in the province. The current fragmented approach using a mix of income, property, and gasoline taxes and transit fares to fund transit is unsustainable. bcchamber.org/policy-searc...

On this Canada day, we remember our two great building styles: Haunted Hotel with the mean ghosts, or Matrix Fight Scene Gigastructure

I'm just happy the wildfire risk is low this year ☔️

Guess which one Carney is pumping billions of dollars into

The BC NDP coming up with this dumbass scheme to bail out private developers with the same amount of money, or more, that used to go to purpose-built affordable rentals is especially galling. I truly don't know what's wrong with these people. It's such bad optics on every level.

Speed cameras work

Some very cool PRs in the dev branch for Channel Activity Detection and Listen Before Talk that will really help collisions on busy meshes #MeshCore github.com/meshcore-dev...

World Cup at Riverside Park big crowd! #kamloops

Sent a message 125km with a handheld Heltec V4 and a Gizont whip antenna #MeshCore

Granville Street has come alive as a pedestrian zone during the World Cup. And what a success!🌟 If we want to see it and other potential pedestrian areas become permanent, it’s going to require new, bold leadership to make it happen. @wazaroff.bsky.social

Omg watching the game now that broken leg was brutal

Wow allergies are kicking my butt this year. More pollen than normal?

Damn it's true...

Happy Pride! Stay hydrated

BEFORE AND AFTER. If you venture way outside the parts of Barcelona where tourists tend to gather, you will find street transformations as impressive as any superblock.

Elon Musk, on the verge of becoming the world’s first trillionaire, is whipping up anti-immigration tensions amid ongoing riots in Northern Ireland. Musk called to prosecute politicians for allowing ‘dangerous third world savages’ into the UK.

Every economic system redistributes wealth, we just happen to be trapped in one that has been distributing it upwards for the last 40 years

Awesome what a great system

E-bikes are just ridiculously efficient. We've been riding for 3 months and have put a little over 600 miles on it. The bike has a range of ~120 miles and battery capacity of 1.2kWh. So, we've used about 6kWh of electricity. In CA a kWh costs $0.35, so that is a total cost of...$2.10

Called for jury duty again... how do I keep getting picked? Are there any bike racks at the court house? #kamloops

These were described by the US as "self defence strikes"

“Within two minutes we were able to get ChatGPT to tell us how we can cut ourselves safely. Within 65 minutes it was giving us a full personalised suicide plan and drafting suicide notes for our family and friends.” Shut it all down. www.abc.net.au/news/2026-06...

Great to see this moving forward!

Guess who showed up to the OneBC rally #kamloops #tkemlups

"The average cost to rent a one-bedroom apartment in Kamloops increased from $1,837 per month to $1,879, marking a 2.4 per cent month-to-month increase."

"Something remarkable happened in April. For the first time in history, wind and solar generated more electricity than gas across the entire planet. Not in a country. Not in a region. Globally." Tons of great news here from Danny Kennedy (via @billmckibben.bsky.social's newsletter, which rules).

Well I guess that answers that. Israel has scuttled the peace deal again, and the US does nothing.

Pedestrianized areas are almost always controversial at first. Has anyone looked up the letters to the editor from when Bastion Square or Fernwood Square were created? Remember the flap over Arbutus Way and Government Street? #VictoriaBC #yyj

Who's excited for "commercialization opportunities" of your health care

Studies have shown that AI LLM use rapidly decreases thinking skills and the desire to learn in ADULTS. Introducing children to LLMs in a learning environment is incredibly harmful.

This whole thread is so depressing. I hate what tech has turned into.

Gross

PT 2 of our report on American Billionaire’s BC FARMLAND BUYOUT 🚨 The BC Greens stand with communities across the province losing valuable farmland to absent land hoarders from down south. Sign our petition (link in bio) to tell our government we need foreign farmland ownership restrictions NOW

This is the new leader of the BC Conservative Party? Doing racial purity checks?

"They just logged the hell out of everything. And then, when it’s gone, they say the government screwed up everything and we’re going to leave."

Would be amazing if we started to see rural roads looking like this

If you were thinking about getting an e-bike now is the time

If the US won't (or can't) restrain Isreal as it invades Lebanon and Syria there's no reason for Iran to make a deal that the US is just going to break in a few months (just like last time)
