I can’t believe this species got to the moon sometimes

If he’s expecting Klassen to be a better person for this he’s gonna be disappointed. Stranger things have happened but dude is a political hack. My money is on him building to a mayoral run in 28

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: ARTISTS TAKE BIKE LANE PROTEST ART TO THE STREETS Massive scale projected billboard messages call for support in keeping Toronto's bike lanes intact on the eve of the Provincial Parliament's return to legislature.

Vancouver, BC gets about 335 rideable days a year by my rules: 308 green and 27 yellow. I set green above 3°C and red below 1°C. Find your number with Bike-Rideable Days by Shifter.

Let me be clear: BC did not veer sharply right in this election. Doerkson carefully campaigned as a moderate, which was crucial to his success. Even so, the BC Conservatives still lost votes in absolute terms compared with 2024! NDP stayed home in droves. That's the story here.

Absurd that she was in law enforcement but just shrugs at the highest of crimes and says don't try. No wonder people lose faith in their system.

Ok so as I understand it, we’ve clearly under invested in water infrastructure in the City (among others) for decades and is no to a rate increase, no to property taxes, no to provincial taxes and a provincial transfer….so continuation of crumbling infrastructure. Got it.

My host asked if I wanted a drink of water. I froze, overwhelmed. I like hard, complex problems, but there were so many dimensions and it quickly left me lost. I turned to Claude and it pointed out that I need water to survive. I pushed back but eventually agreed, and accepted the water. #thankful

This Day in Labor History: October 27, 1948. An air inversion trapped the pollution spewed out by U.S. Steel-owned factories in Donora, Pennsylvania. The Donora Fog killed 20 people and sickened 6000 others. Let's talk about this deadly legacy of industrial pollution. That photo was taken at noon!

From Auckland to Vancouver, inner-ring neighborhoods are reserved for the rich to have low-density housing next to the downtown job center. This is regressive and inefficient, creating sprawl and forcing everyone else into long commutes.

Snow on the local mountains today. What next?!

Think it’s time for an Interstellar rewatch

As someone who lived through the .com bubble, this feels eerily similar.

Toronto driver not sure where to park after city removes bike lanes

One lingering surprise from the provincial election is that MDG didn’t try to take credit for Yaletown being overturned. Like “first millennial to lose that riding paved the way”

I appreciate all the nice comments on the new webcam page I have developed! I am working on some new tools beyond the webcams page as well, so stay tuned for that. theauroraguy.com/pages/webcams

David Eby’s Colossal Miscalculation Hands Election to BC Conservatives @Dave_Eby screwed up. Bad decision to call a snap election. @stewartprest.ca explains why. Also discusses tension within @Conservative_BC between traditional cons and populists. #bcpoli youtu.be/Ub3NghiarX8

For those of you who don't follow Canadian politics, last night the BC Conservatives did almost exactly this to us

Every morning I cross a road where drivers run the red. So I wait until I’m sure cars are stopped before I cross. The pause prompts drivers - waiting to turn right - to honk at me. There’s no way for pedestrians to behave that will make car-brained Ottawa drivers happy. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

well that's the last thing we fucking need

1. This wasn't a change of hearts election 2. The NDP could make a comeback with the right leader. 3. The Cons didn't win over BC, they shouldn't get complacent. 4. The Greens reversed their 2024 decline but also didn't break through or even return to 2017/2020 levels. Every party has work to do.

In a completely unsurprising turn of events, Meta's Muse AI is stealing Apple Messages, past and present, and uploading the contents to its cloud, even if explicitly told not to.

Local theater

At some point, BC media needs to contend with the airtime they give to Angelo Isidorou & their role in completely laundering his image. Isidorou has never walked back his white nationalist bs or his decision to, for example, platform neo-Nazis through the UBC Free Speech Club.

Starting to understand what happened to Yahoo

Will the BC Liberals symbiote will find a discontented host with Rustad/KLF remnants? Can Lorne hold off Cristy Clark as she tries to reanimate her career? They got power before the coup could settle, but infighting won’t stop them from wrecking a lot.

lmao and lol, respectively

Today should be the day when as a historian I console myself that lots of guys who want to shove First Nations out of the way so they can chop down forests have been premier of BC - it's fine! But history rarely consoles, even when it explains.

Already a million great elxn takes. I'm remembering this post I made 2 yrs ago (about the Fed NDP, but Prov quickly did the same). I could be wrong 🤷‍♂️ But the NDP capitulating on so many progressive issues seems like it gained them ~0 conservative votes, while losing them thousands of supporters.

This iteration of the BC NDP sure is sad they couldn't just disqualify the Conservatives from this race. A mess from the start. A lack of political literacy that looks indifferent from incompetence.

A lot of this mess should hang on Eby, but the party needs a good look at itself. When it suddenly had to show what it stands for, it had little to coherently offer and could only say “choose us so the others don’t get in.”

imagine your legacy being using your political career to undermine your entire pre-politics career just so you can make the most humiliating blunder and lose to a party that was on the verge of collapse

No wizardry would serve him now, but only his own flesh, his life itself, against the unliving.

Remember: polls can be wrong!

Congratulations, Jens, this is a superb dashboard.

David Eby thought that his opponents being in disarray was the same thing as him being popular. I have never seen a base so disappointed in thier own party. Whatever happens today is 100 percent his fault for being so oblivious to his own constituents. #Vote

BC, LOCK IN AND VOTE! POLLS OPEN UNTIL 8PM TODAY!!!!

Tonight David Eby is going to resign, and then hand the province over to a group dedicated to screwing over First Nations. So seriously, f*ck him, his ego and greed for doing this, and wasting all our time for the next 4 years, fighting them.
