I love the flying skate, but there's a certain "that's Vancouver hockey" to the fact that the skate is going downhill.

Every time I put on a Canucks game and they're wearing these flying-skate uniforms, I start dreaming up ways to imprison the people who thought the orca look was better.

So we fly a pride flag in our front yard in a very conservative neighborhood and it’s been there for the last few years. Someone put this in our mailbox and my goodness…

I have friends who are dead set against an income tax and they make arguments like "its going to come m down from a millionaires' tax to impact you as well" and like, fucking hell yes? I should be taxed. If I'm lucky enough to have my hard work pay off in the form of a *high* income, get my ass.

Graphite powder is both magic, and disappointingly amazing at masking the color beneath it. I was hoping for more of a blue metal, but still, this is sorcery. This was the test piece for resin, paint, graphite for the helmet, and the aluminum paint looks amazing, but we need a rework on color plans.

I can see every place I didn't sand fully or properly clean up drips, but it still kicks ass. Base metallic aluminum coat done. Accent colors, and graphite to come.

Anecdotally, I'm the extremely online one in my marriage (because I have a truly healthy relationship with the internet and unemployment) and my wife was aware and angry about Cornell before I was. This is a cleansing wildfire.

This is slightly out of my normal lane, and I could charge six (hell maybe seven) figure to deliver this message as a consultant, but I’m gonna do it for free. Because I’m ✨enraged✨ People in the think tank/policy/inside the beltway DC world have ABSOLUTELY NO CLUE how mad people are abt Cornell. 🧵

I'm in no way endorsing sports gambling, but could a person hypothetically bet on the number of coaches fired after losing to the Canucks? This is my Stanley Cup.

What a call by Manny Malhotra to put Sasson and Cotter on the ice in overtime. Cotter was dogged on the forecheck, Sasson made a fantastic backhand pass, and Cotter finished it off with aplomb. #Canucks

This is an incredible set of visualizations. Love it.

You could find your way along the Nova Scotia coast blind, just by timing the blinks. Every lighthouse flashes on its own rhythm, a set interval and colour no neighbour repeats. Sambro Island off Halifax has burned since 1758, the oldest working lighthouse in North America. #lighthouse #NovaScotia

So, the price to drive on a pedestrian bridge is $600. How about we increase that by a couple orders of magnitude, and just take the cars and licenses away?

They've nearly done it! One day left. The 3 women swimmers who've swum the length of the Fraser River from the Rockies to Vancouver just made it to Deas Island! They camp there tonight, & come ashore at Garry Pt Park in Steveston tomorrow, Fri. ~ 3:30 pm. You can go great them! I am. #bcpoli 🧵

I hope Chris Pine finds time to do this movie and that he uses his own at the farmers' market wardrobe. Nobody comments on it, he's just showing up in a rainbow coat and slippers.
