One of the worst parts (there are many) of this stupid provincial election is all the conservatives turning up to 11 the lie that they’re somehow fiscally responsible.

Back on my thing of grabbing some crime noir novels from our annual vacation destination. Paul Cleave and Michael Bennett. Ok let’s get go.
I have no idea who is going to be premier after October 24 but something in the wind tells me it’s not going to be David Eby.
I don't get how the municipal and provincial elections concurrently is confusing. Dumb, sure. But confusing? Come on.
Gawd she's like a horror film villain. Just stay dead already.
Interesting. "Asked if she’s implying she’s ready to step forward as a potential leader, Clark replied: “I’m saying I’m going to help however I can.”"
Dude VERY angry I didn’t cleat down for the jay waddling geese. Just say you hate cyclists man.
People who have been to Hong Kong, if you had 4-ish hours in Hong Kong what would you do? Asking for me and SC in a couple weeks.
Ah yes, private investment, famous for making services better and more affordable.
Reviewing candidates for Park Board. 7/7 ABC candidates failed / declined (?) to provide contact information as per the City of Vancouver elections webpage.
New thing to think about while dodging unleashed dogs while out on my long run.
May I remind everyone that there is currently NO cure for rabies. May I also remind everyone there is absolutely NO scientific proof connecting ANY vaccine that we produce today with autism. This is true regarding vaccination in both humans AND in dogs. Vaccinate your pets please.
I guess it's somewhat comforting to know that AI will solve the climate crisis probably by winning the race towards a mass extinction event.
Every candidate for Vancouver Park Board should have to answer if they support locking public washrooms from dusk until dawn.
I listened to this yesterday and was nodding my busted noggin along nearly the whole time. I am alive because I was wearing a helmet but *obviously* wearing a helmet didn't prevent the dumb fuck in a truck from being a dumb fuck.
NEW! "Fine, We're Doing a Helmet Episode." After Mayor Mamdani posted a video showing him wearing a bike helmet, social media exploded. But what are helmets designed to do? Who sets the standards? And what is it about the mere mention of them that causes people to lose their minds? bit.ly/4gFMJub
Won’t somebody think of the drivers for once

Vancouver man says traffic calming measures leaving people 'barricaded in their own neighbourhood'
So we've gone from a guy nobody knows with some great ideas to a guy everybody knows without a platform.
I have never been hit by a driver cycling without a helmet and I do it all the time. I was wearing a helmet when I was hit by a driver and it probably saved my life. Understanding the hierarchy of controls should be the basic entry required to engage in this conversation. (I haven’t listened yet)

I feel like I missed summer. As in didn't notice. Not some forlorn longing nonsense. Maybe because it got unusually hot in early May then didn't again? This summer was weird.
I know I’m late to the party but trying to book a BC Parks day pass feels like a Kafka novel.
Every Friday I ride from the West End up Grouse and back home except today. Of course except today. And none of you have video of the water main at Marine and Capilano. What a stupid day.
Pretty soon the official opposition party in B.C. is going to be the Independent Party.
I've never been to Toronto and the only time I ever hear anything about Toronto it's some idiot thing happening there that makes me never want to go.
That’s almost the entire network. It’s so much worse than we feared 😔
Suddenly we're flying to New Zealand in just 31 days. Send all your weirdest New Zealand tips.
"Sony further asserts that one cannot “own” a digital copy of a game because, as it’s a digital file rather than physical media ... it cannot be possessed by any one individual." Ok so how can you steal something that cannot be possessed.
The company made the argument in an August filing with California’s Northern District Court. www.avclub.com/sony-interac...
We are living in the dumbest of times. The dark ages got nothing on this nonsense.
