Almost as if there is a high voter turnout, progressive candidates win. Should be a lesson for other campaigns. You need to get voters to care. BC showed that being wishy washy gets you washed out.

That’ll show them!* ___ * “Them” being ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Wow.

Now this will excite the youths!

I spoke to my partner’s father and uncle, both lawyers, and at this time it doesn’t seem possible to make it illegal for the media to remind us that Justin Trudeau and Katy Perry are dating. Please follow this account for future updates on this matter.

Eric Bauza was the People's Bugs Bunny, he fought tirelessly to get Coyote vs. Acme released, he was on the front lines of strikes supporting writers and actors, this is a huge loss

In his acceptance speech, Lula says he will work to regulate digital platforms in Brazil. “Digital crimes must be dealt with like real-life crimes.” This comes after Meta directly interfered with the Brazilian elections, favouring Flávio Bolsonaro.

Writers Guild speaks out about tech platforms squashing the @alexgibneyfilm doc about Elon Musk: “A small handful of billionaires now own virtually every major media company, news outlet, social media platform and are demonstrating how this unchecked concentration threatens democratic discourse.”

Meanwhile BC is about to find out what it’s like to be governed by the people who are the reason we have to put “DO NOT EAT” on silica gel packets.

think of what we might have made

Oh man, I had no idea. www.theguardian.com/music/2026/s...

Whoever told Eby this election was a good idea should probably not work in politics again. All-time own goal.

I’m going to carry rotten vegetables with me all the time now in the off chance that I see him.

David Eby’s legacy = human rights violating military raid on Wet’suwet’en as AG, cheating in the leadership race to become Premier, simping for LNG, colossally failing to uphold DRIPA, worst snap election in Canadian history

David Eby has resigned as leader of the B.C. NDP following election of Conservative majority government

Well, at least it’s safe to throw Mable Elmore out the party for endorsing Ken Sim.

Trans kids in peril? Thank @davidebybc.bsky.social. Massive backlash against indigenous rights? Thank @davidebybc.bsky.social. On going climate crisis? You guessed it. Housing crisis? That too. Anti-vaxxers in your schools? @davidebybc.bsky.social is the gift that keeps on giving.

Oh look, “reasonable centrists” like Matisse celebrating extremists. Scratch a centrist…

And guess what? They’re still calling him a commie on r/VancouverLandlords er al. Adopting right-wing policy only legitimizes right-wing policy, it doesn’t win right-wing votes.

Just look at this shit! This is a paid app that has been on the Mac for over 24 years. Trimble should truly be ashamed to ship this.

If Brad Bradford wasn’t his real name, calling him that would be racist.

This is Vancouver's very first proposal to build a low-rise, multi-unit residential building on a small single-family lot under the new single-staircase building rules. A 6-storey, wood-frame building with 24 family-sized units. #vanre #vanpoli dailyhive.com/vancouver/21...

Yesterday there was a guy in the cemetery taking photos of his Porsche for social media—tripod and all. Car parked diagonally across the path. In the cemetery. His car blocking the path. Dead soldiers for a backdrop. I post this if anyone wonders why I became the fucken Joker.

VOTE, YOU SWINE!

What’s with all the sirens? Did no one tell the VPD that the election is over?

Disappointing @cbcstephenquinn.bsky.social interview with @seanorr.bsky.social. Don't recall anyone on the right ever being asked if their ideology will get in the way of "pragmatism". Orr campaigned on his beliefs, got more votes than anyone else. With the right the media would call that a mandate.
