This was one of the most magical things that I have ever been part of. And as it turns out, the love of my life was also in that room! We didn't meet for another 6 months, but I think we somehow carried this energy with us until we found each other again 🥰 (cc @miaugly.bsky.social i love you darlin)
@mgm1229.bsky.social · 5mo agoHi all! We were so excited about OFMD’s birthday we missed this anniversary. 3500 pirate fans at the ECCC panel with Rhys, Vico, and Samba. Singing our hearts out to The Chain to start it all off. From @sambaschutte.bsky.social ‘s instagram post.
This entire thing has been so incredibly infuriating, insulting, and embarrassing. I am proud to work for the City of Vancouver - and I am ashamed that this is our leader. The people of this City deserve better - let's get it for ourselves in October.
Mihai Cirstea@mihai-cirstea.bsky.social · 5mo agoThere's a dismissive contemptuousness in Sim's answers to the media that would fit right in with the administration down south. We have to firmly reject this in Vancouver. youtube.com/shorts/_wktm...
In light of Sim saying that he said Orr dealt drugs based on seeing a mystery photo from a mystery person, I think it’s important to reflag this. If this is an uncharitable interpretation, the mayor is free to provide more details of how he ended up seeing such a photo and believing it.
Thx @seanorr.bsky.social! Currently on a plane from Toronto and grateful to be able to follow. @cityofvancouver.bsky.social @kensimcity.bsky.social please, please reconsider this awful budget. Don't hollow out our city for your short term gain - very short, bc this is NOT getting you reelected.
SEAN ORR@seanorr.bsky.social · 9mo agoBreaking up city council budget meeting. Speaker 47. Point grey home owner. Got rich with zero effort. Wants clean beaches, safe transit, libraries. Wants to see people of all incomes be able to enjoy. Doesn’t like power of police. View corridors, livable incomes, things are getting worse.
inspiringly hopeful session on the loss of the Institute for Museum & Library Services. so many stories we can tell about the "transformative, utility level impact” of libraries in every community, and ways those stories can help secure funding for US libraries going forward #internetlibrarian
attending #internetlibrarian today, and it's making me long for the old library twitter days, so i'm on a follow spree! hi! how many librarians does it take make the world seem a little less scary and a little more hopeful? a LOT, but damn we're BRIGHT when we get together.
girlfriend of antifa should become the new friend of dorothy for everyone who hates fascism.
It’s bleak out there, but it’s heartening to know millions of people from all walks of life took the time to ruin one specific persons birthday, America’s hater spirit remains strong
They're building 50, 60, and 70 floor buildings in the burbs. But in Vancouver, right by Commercial Station, institutional NIMBYism means even a 44 floor rental apt is a years-long fight. Please write in to support rental housing in Vancouver--details below!

Just a reminder that I wrote a book, it’s called The Dad Rock That Made Me a Woman, it’s out in May via @utexaspress.bsky.social , and you should pre-order it wherever you can.
i love being gay, it brings me so much joy in so many ways - but one reason is that in relationships, we're just people. with baggage and problems to work through together, sure - but without this binary system constantly telling one of us to man up and the other to clean up after them.
Franchesca Ramsey@chescaleigh.bsky.social · last yr.This viral tiktok made me think of a fantastic article by my friend @melaniehamlett.bsky.social “men have no friends & women bear the burden”
This is extremely impressive from Carney. Not so much as a blink or a nod while all this nonsense gets spouted next to him. www.nytimes.com/video/us/pol...

Hey @neilsteinberg.bsky.social I wonder if there's a place funded by your tax dollars, open to everyone in your community, where you could get help understanding how public libraries work? northbrook.info

Sinners invites a new bold business idea. What if people want to see movies because they like them and not due to a pavlovian response to being 12 years old once!?
