Talk to me about electric vehicles, old Hondas and TTRPGs. Prince George / Comox Valley, BC.
Every moral panic, every divisive issue is like 3 degrees of separation from US oil money.

I'm lucky to have independent grocery stores near my house. They focus on Canadian products and are often priced the same or less than American products at chain stores. While buy-Canadian sentiments are awesome, I hope this kind of marketing research doesn't get abused by Loblaws.

Courtenay, BC. A socialist dystopia of street calming and protected bike lanes. There is plenty of work still to be done but I am encouraged by the gradual street narrowing and safe bike lane projects added each year in the city.

Sharing this again as Danielle Smith proposes an ambiguous new pipeline to BC's coast with the implied backing of Trans Mountain crown corporation. The US gas companies treat Northern BC like Afghanistan, and Smith's new proposal sounds like more of the same.

Weird how we figured out socialized medicine but socialized mail is just too much. Whenever I see news like this I look up Loblaws and Rogers' net income; it sure seems like we could dial up the socialism a bit and solve a lot of problems.

Some brands have invested wisely in EV tech and have successful EV programs, while NA and Japanese brands mostly have not. Backing off from EV policy chooses winners and losers, and makes winners out of losers.

American auto makers that can't make EVs are the same ones that can't even make hatchbacks, sedans, wagons or vans. But that only applies to North America. We are their dumb money demographic insulated by tariffs.

This should be the most played, most covered song of 2025. Also, Sophie Powers (🇨🇦) plays the vlogger and doesn't sing in this, but check out her own dark, sarcastic glitch-rock.

I would like to see Critchley as an MP, defeating PP aside. She seems like a great person to have in Parliament.

Dear Congressmen, This Big Beautiful Burn will totally obliterate the DEI trees from our woke forests. These trees are real bad hombres. They have been making fentanyl the likes of which nobody has ever seen before. This is a flawless operation. It will be over in about two weeks. WINNING.

People keep telling me that EV infrastructure "just isn't there yet" despite not driving an EV and not knowing anything about charging stations. In BC, fast chargers are all over the place: in rest-areas, at gas stations, on campuses, at parks, and so on. Every highway has coverage.

Canadian elections are like a party game where you pay attention to clues, sift through misdirection, guess what everyone else is going to do, then try to prevent Loblaws from forming government.

"This is the closest thing to The Matrix ... The computer hallucinates an image, then gives it to you, to do manual labour on." This common at work now. People hand me half-cooked slop for "review and approval." I spend hours documenting and communicating the mistakes.
