On Bioware's closure, and how its legacy lives on in games they inspired. feat. @adashtra.bsky.social @alyssamerc.bsky.social @osamadorias.bsky.social @heartimecia.bsky.social ( & thanks to @silvarils.bsky.social) www.cbc.ca/news/enterta...

Eric Bauza. Legend.

Lorne Doerksen went from a nobody to BC’s Premier in a month, thanks to David Eby. He must be pinching himself right now. All we can do now is hope that the destruction of Dallas Brodie will signal to the BC Conservatives that persuing hateful and divisive actions will not get them re-elected.

Seriously, how amazing is this 1984 print ad for a BASIC tutorial software package? "Street talk of the future."

Awful, awful news. BioWare not only made one of the best games ever in Mass Effect 2, but has been one of Canada's great developers. I'm so sorry for everyone there today.

It’s fine, no one would ever guess the number 4. Here’s hard evidence: youtu.be/UdtbotWl4T8?...

A full 50% of Canadians will live in a province banning/limiting/removing bike lanes when Alberta introduces its promised legislation soon. It just feels like a much smaller country when the number of places where you can have nice things like bike lanes and housing keeps shrinking.

I've always been afraid that rattlesnakes were immortal, and this graph qualifies my fear with facts.

you don’t have to agree with the underlying take to agree this is reprehensible behaviour from a supposedly reputable publication.

Every anti-cyclist Red Pill moment is just "I saw a cyclist moving faster than car traffic, thus proving the argument that bike lanes are efficient at moving people and reducing car gridlock. This infuriated me."

“If politicians and officials won’t try to make things better unless each action comes with a promise of huge numbers of eager voters, then I think we should pack it in.”

There is much in my life to be thankful for this Thanksgiving, and at the top of that list is my beloved @ellenteapot.ca. 💞🇨🇦

Much, much better.

#ICYMI “As snow falls across Toronto, three South Asian delivery drivers weave through traffic to deliver meals during the city’s busiest hours. Their stories reveal lives shaped by migration, ambition and grit…” h/t @thebikinglawyer.bsky.social #BikeTO www.nfb.ca/film/butter-...

New piece in the University of Alberta paper on the administration’s recklessly cruel decision to slash 100% of funding to affiliated child care centres on campus The effects continue. They refuse to budge despite the harm. “Have you dropped out, yet?” thegatewayonline.ca/2026/10/the-...

For the past week, I've heard a lot of people say "provincial and municipal elections happening at the same time is confusing, especially since I don't fully understand what a city is in control of." So, I did a four minute explainer piece to try and help www.youtube.com/watch?v=tqlh...

Today, on the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, we're reflecting on 𝘎𝘪𝘷𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘞𝘪𝘵𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘙𝘦𝘤𝘦𝘪𝘷𝘪𝘯𝘨 by Pierre Aupilardjuk — and the story behind the work.

The @Tigers broadcast had a hilarious message for Jason Benetti after he dropped some historical knowledge 🤣

As we sit on the precipice of another election in BC—particularly considering the climate with the Democrats in the U.S. right now—it's worth pushing progressive politicians to vocally affirm their support of LGBTQ2S+ folks (and particularly trans people), rather than accepting silence as support.

New bike day! Say hello to my new Tern HSD S9i Sport, a delightful e-bike that carries a lot with a smooth and stable ride. (Thanks to @newwheel.bsky.social for a top-tier new bike experience, and @ternbicycles.com for the work you put into creating the HSD!)

if you use AI to do this, you are the scum of the earth and will never see the light of heaven

Now it's time to rec my books to your friends—hello! Do you like gay hockey, or body swapping, or a screwball comedy about art kids, or DC Comic superheroes? www.ngoziu.com/books 📚

A truly balanced transportation system would: • Unconditionally fund basic O&M for both roads and transit • Prioritize the Berkeley Hills Tunnel BART work over the Caldecott Tunnel freeway work, since Caldecott Bore 4 is still brand new • Provide cyclists 24/7 access through the hills via BART

We need to keep getting pettier.

I feel like we’re not talking enough about what a BFD it is that the federal government is floating $165mn to simultaneously keep Inlet District alive while accelerating rental housing production in PoMo. #bcpoli #cdnpolih

On 9/11 2001, the US closed its airspace after unfathomable terrorist attacks. Flights bound for the US were forced to divert, with many opting to land in Canada. Under Operation Yellow Ribbon, the small town of Gander, NL and the surrounding communities accepted 38 planes. buff.ly/Ugvm4vL

A book recommendation: Big Mall, by Kate Black. It's about West Edmonton Mall, but it's about all malls. It might be because I spent five years working at WEM, but I found myself fascinated by the stories and observations in this book.

“If you ride a bike share to the grocery store, you should have to park further away than everyone who drove. This is to improve public safety.” – statements of the utterly deranged

Ontario is named after a Huron/Wyandot word meaning "great lake" and America is named after an Italian liar and slave-trader who went to Brazil and fabricated half of the stuff in his accounts. Impossible to say which name is better

The last time the Americans tried to claim Lake Ontario in 1813, we intentionally lured them into Fort York and then blew up our entire gunpowder magazine to kill as many Americans as possible. A foundation part of Toronto history is "blowing our own fort to smithereens rather than being American"

the text of the executive order should be read as an implicit threat on the Saint Lawrence Seaway
