We've been poking into some of the community gardens around the city, and we've seen some packed planters!

It's been quite the busy week politically (locally and globally), so we hope you all get a nice breather this weekend.

A photo of a nasturtium and a fact about the flower that says, "While being great for pest control in your garden, nasturtiums are also edible. The flowers have a light spicy kick that's great in salads or as a garnish, while the leaves can be used like basil to add flavour to your dishes."

WHC is fine; one of my clients use them and they're a decent supporter of the wordpress ecosystem. I'm on Siteground for a little longer, looking at switching over too.

@ptfry.bsky.social calls out Ken Sim's bitcoin plan, saying it's "incredibly reckless" and reminds us of El Salvador's crypto collapse.

Vancouver needs housing & poverty solutions, not risky, ethereal coin schemes.
