The BIA for the area opposed this

Once again,

Vancouver mayor Ken Sim continues to put all his efforts into being a professional dingdong

ABC Vancouver has ruled that Pete Fry's motion saying that Vancouver opposes ICE agents in Vancouver and asking Ottawa to reject deployment during the World Cup is invalid and cannot be voted on. They say it's because they have assurances from the US that they won't be sending ICE agents.

Daisies.

NEW BLOG POST: Summertime: Part 10 In this post, I share photos, videos and commentary documenting the process of creating the wee folk characters who inhabit "Summertime" the summer scene in my seasonal landscape series. weefolkstudio.com/2026/01/19/s...

the amount of effort put into lying about drug policy by reactionary political actors would be hilarious if 414 people who were residents of Vancouver hadn't died from drug policy last year

for context, the motion he's fomenting opposition to is to rescind the "pause" on supportive housing he's lying about drugs to leave people homeless

I fuckin hate this dude. Pollievre is such a loser

get weirder 🫵

a weird little pet peeve of mine is when "thumbnails" get called "storyboards." They're two different things & require 2 different skillsets.

I don't go to a lot of parades bc I'm just not a crowds person, but I happened to be moving through downtown during the parade today & the police officers with rifles staring down main and hastings were fucking awful.

As important as your passion project may be to you, don’t pull all nighters on it. Don’t hurt yourself in the long-term just to get your art out sooner.

I recently paid extra to avoid any layovers at U.S. airports

turns out almost nobody other than total freaks likes or wants this shit

Never forget that its possible. When they say that there’s no money and their hands are tied, they are lying (If you look closer, you will observe that they are tying their own hands with all the money) Never forget this. Everything is possible

Shout out to whoever donated the like 40 issues of cerebus at the VGH thrift.

i'm still on instagram bc like.... being an illustrator & also that's where all the sewing ppl are. But god almighty the template-ification of communication on there is mind numbing. I can't tell if it's ppl using ai for writing post text, or if we've just descended deep into trends of sharing.

I'm on book 8 of the sookie stackhouse series & it's been *perfect* inking background noise.

I've been getting back into comics while I wait for more info from my concept job, and I thought I'd make a post about something very important to me, which is COMIC PANEL VARIATION and HOW TO THINK ABOUT IT.

Frankie and the Curious Cocoon Quest has a great review in the upcoming March Issue of @ala-booklist.bsky.social's Booklist! 📚🐛 Booklist comes out on the 4th, and Frankie shows up on shelves just six days later on March 10th!

I finished my first muslin of this last night & it looks great. I got a bit scared prior to making it because the small handful of reviews were really negative & described parts of the process as "impossible." After sewing it, it's actually very possible but maybe too advanced for the reviewers?

Someone making $100,000 a year pays lower income taxes in BC than in Alberta. ALBERTA. That's nuts. The BCNDP should be thoroughly ashamed of themselves for the fact that BC is racing Alberta to the bottom, and winning.

Listen up pals. When the budget graphics don’t have any numbers, you need to flip the fuck out.

Sadie Stephens was “left hanging” by the tenant relocation company that owed her money as part of the city’s enhanced tenant protection policies for the Broadway corridor. She’s not the only one. Ben Mussett reports. A Tyee investigation. #vanpoli

it's a month later & i'm here to report that sewing this couch cover has absolutely upped the quality of life in this apartment. it's soooo much softer and cozier than the default ikea couch fabric.

Last name rhymes with "moss." 😎

the pattern i want to use for part of this is from a company that puts their instructions out in both french and english but speaking both languages is NOT making understanding the pattern easier. tonight's task is reading thru the pattern thoroughly before I cut out the fabric for the first test.

The Tumbler Ridge newspaper puts it better than I could

Incredible victory! After years of organizing across Canada, Scotia Bank has divested from Elbit Systems! Elbit is Israel's largest weapons company, arming the occupation and genocide of Palestine. www.theglobeandmail.com/business/art...

Going thru my zine collection to pull examples for a series of workshops next week & I really do have some cool stuff in there. I can't ever throw away zines. I've held on to every one I've ever gotten since I got into zine making in 2010 or so.

Despite not living in Toronto since 2002, the stories of its police force's corruption and abuse are too loud not to hear. This piece gives an overview of some really shocking acts over the decades. I've been a police abolitionist for years, here's some more reasons why.

i'm starting in on the somewhat daunting task of sewing the outfit i'm going to wear to a bunch of weddings this year. 🙏😤

Cute recent outfits. We have fun together. 🌈🥰💝

I keep hearing that the Epstein files are so big if we held everyone accountable everything would collapse. And no it wouldn’t. These rich guys don’t do any actual work. They aren’t actually important or useful they are just rich.

The broadest restriction on Charter rights to free expression in Canada

Happy Valentine’s Day to all who celebrate

Hey remember the shooting in Minneapolis that happened between Renee Good and Alexi Pretti, the guy they claimed was shot by an agent after he had attacked that agent with a shovel? I know it's hard to believe but the agents' story fell apart and charges were dropped. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/12/u...

Once again, the AI boom is pushing everyone deeper into building new fossil fuel infrastructure. The sooner this bubble pops, the better. I hope it buries every dipwad who's pushing it for good. This is happening in a town of 10000 people, BTW. Just dropping a 1000 job campus on a tiny community.

Word balloon placement is one of the most important elements to consider while laying out a comic page. If you have multiple word balloons in a panel, it's imperative that the reading order is intuitive. Even word balloons in separate panels can be read incorrectly when placed poorly.

Including disabled people in our utopian futures pushes back against a eugenicist ideal.

Almost immediately, the tragedy was pulled into the public domain and repackaged, writes municipal councillor Ken Matheson. Not to support the grieving or help a traumatized community heal, but to advance ideological positions and turn suffering into rage farming. #TumblerRidgeShooting #bcpoli

I posted on *three platforms* just over *20 minutes* after Radio-Canada first misidentified this innocent trans woman as a mass shooter on national television in a 6:00pmET broadcast. I tagged Radio Canada and Patrice Roy. They didn't issue a correction until after 2:00pmET today. Unacceptable.

Rhetorial question but how is it ice's job to go after agitators
