A delightful story by Stephen King about the viewing of the film "Stand by Me," based on his book. Free read:

So sexually abusing kids?

Excellent news!

It's a very easy decision if the person is still alive. I don't want to financially compensate artists who are awful people. So I refuse to buy any Rowling books or see any Cruise movies. My decisions will vary for dead artists. thetyee.ca/Culture/2025...

If you've never seen The Princess Bride Home Movie, it's on YouTube. More info here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Home_Mo... www.youtube.com/watch?v=29s1...

A further note on dogs vs sports ball Could we have a pub that doesn't play any sports ball, but does play CUFTS, Westminster KC, and various free form dog races* like the one below? I would totally go there! (* but not professional dog races which are pretty awful) www.youtube.com/watch?v=CmFa...

What a time to be alive and in BC.

It's exactly the same amount of effort to enforce dog poop laws and dog exclusion laws! The vast majority of times I pass a sports field, it's empty. Why not let folks play with their dogs there! Better than not being used at all. I wonder how many people own dogs vs playing sports ball? 🤔

A little cleanse

The cultural impact of Rob Reiner cannot be understated. Legend isn't big enough a word. It goes to 11. You can't handle the truth. As you wish. I'll have what she's having. I'm your number one fan. You guys wanna see a dead body? The very idea of a bucket list. The West Wing. All from his movies.

This entire weekend

We have lost a legendary filmmaker: deadline.com/2025/12/rob-...

All of the other reindeer used to laugh and call him names…

Christmas night: "But Santa, you've hardly touched your Zardoz cookies."

The kind .. you find … in a second hand store

Congrats Dick Van Dyke! Now please never have anything to do with Coldplay ever again 😀

I won't pretend to understand (or give a shit about) sports ball. But I'm guessing that the Whitecaps aren't making any real coin in Vancouver (hence the possible sale). Which probably means that not enough people go to games. So yeah, a new stadium is a fantastic idea 🙄

Just for fun I did an estimate for health insurance with United Healthcare as a Seattle resident. JFC! $1300 a month and $10,000 deductible per year! But I can get travel insurance for a month for $250. Y'all should just get travel insurance! (Yes, I know that won't work. Too bad)

There's a difference between an acting role and a doc. It's fine to play a despicable person in a film. It's acting! But to narrate a doc is to imply that you agree with what's coming out of your mouth. This is pretty basic shit! Also, we are running out of actors I can watch

If Liam Neeson is gonna narrate some quack documentary we should pay Jesse Plemons 30 billion dollars to read things for two hours like “the earth is clearly round” “you should eat a healthy diet of a variety of foods and not just wet beef” & “do not suntan your butthole, it does not need that”

This move is many things, surprising is not one of them. This is also the asswipe ABC councillor who doesn't actually live in Vancouver. Yes I work for the city, and yes I don't live in the city. But I'm a * civil servant, NOT a policy maker * Mostly civil 😉

Going to be a whole lot of empty stadiums in the United States of Evil

hold me ?

Whenever you see white supremacist bullshit, post this. Yeah, white culture is so much better than <insert more interesting culture here>. My family background is German. I choose to ignore that and stick to being basic ass white Canadian. That may be boring, but at least it's not embarrassing!

Movie you’ve watched more than six times with a gif. Hard mode: no Stars (Wars nor Trek), LOTR, or Marvel, Disney Animated or Pixar. (I was going to post Shaun of the Dead, but Pegg and Frost are dead to me now)

Tunashamed

In defence if not owning physical media — my husband won’t have to deal with my music and books after I bite it.

I think this is a really important thing about libraries that many people may not realize. not only not tracking, but ideally really making an effort to maintain privacy on hold shelves as well. Corporations and many government entities are attacking our privacy; support libraries in preserving it.

Does anyone know of any other examples of where a video synchs perfectly to other audio, like the This Is America video clip set to Call Me Maybe?

Today, we remember the fourteen young women whose lives were stolen at Polytechnique Montréal 36 years ago. Their names are a solemn reminder of the devastating toll of gender-based violence — and the responsibility that comes with our remembrance.

In S17 of #Taskmaster, Nick Mohammed dressed as a vampire for his tasks. The production scrubbed all his reflections when he's dressed like this, but the only way I knew is because someone told me about it. It's subtle and very cool.

You spelled "This is to buy favours from John the Baby's fuck buddy Trump prize" wrong. How much you wanna bet that there will never be another one given out? www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

This is so accurate it causes me mild physical pain.

Seems like Sarah isn't simply having a wonderful Christmastime! 😜

For non locals. This racist piece of work was kicked out of our provincial conservative party and went on to form an even more conservative party! She's also anti-vax and Transphobic. Just an all special douche canoe. www.ctvnews.ca/vancouver/ar...

Show off the range of your music taste. 5 songs you like that are musically as far apart as you can manage. Hurt (Johnny Cash) Monument (Röyksopp feat. Robyn) The Four Seasons (Vivaldi) Sexy Boy (Air) catch these fists (Wet Leg)

Se7en is a Christmas movie because people talk about the Bible and Brad Pitt gets a present at the end.

I laughed pretty hard at this. Happy belated, Sam. 🥹

Post your favorite Star Trek character. Wrong answers only.

So called alternative medicine is almost always a scam. At best it can alleviate some symptoms. At worst it can suck your bank account dry and kill you. Never mind robbing you of the chance to try proven treatments. There are alternative treatments to my condition, I won't be trying any of them.

We went out for an early dinner today. Came out of the restaurant and thought to myself "Home and then to bed". It was 6

This seemed so Avant-garde when I was 19. Now it's still a fun song, but so very, very 80s! www.youtube.com/watch?v=caxc...
