Vancouver needs some level of ‘no confidence’ or impeachment process for both city council and the mayors office.
ABC is going to continue to do ghoulish crap until they’re voted out and we can’t do anything to stop them. There are zero consequences and they do not care about our city.

Budget amendment by ABC councillor Zhou would cut $8 million from capital budget for "Energy Retrofits for non-city buildings" and put it to filling potholes and other "core services".
Opposition councillors upset that it could cancel upgrades in buildings where people died in the 2021 heat dome.

LinkedIn needs a feature that lets you stipulate minimum salary range for roles you are looking for.
I was just emailed a 'marketing director' position for a 'AI Drone' 🤮 company with a salary of 110k. Wanting 8 years of experience. Asking folks to sell dangerous/iffy tech for peanuts is GRIM af.

It's grim to see PayPal launching this new service days before Black Friday - feels predatory. I'm too tired to bother looking into the terms (and I bet that 1 in this screenshot is doing some heavy lifting) but even if this is how it represents itself, I cringed heavily at this email.

If you like an author's work, the best thing you can do is buy it. The second best thing you can do is ask your local library to buy it. Or, do both!
A reminder that the median book deal for a debut author in the UK is £7000, paid over 12-18 months. (from 2022 Society of Authors report). Some of your favourite writers are struggling. societyofauthors.org/2022/12/06/a....

Accidentally lost my shit crying when we were leaving the care home - I’m always of the opinion that nurses don’t get enough credit, but one saw me crying, grabbed me Kleenex & water without asking, gave me a BIG hug, and then fed me a piece of chocolate 🥲🩷 so that one especially

Visiting my aunt in a care home for her birthday and man… this stage of life is ROUGH.
If you have an elderly family member in care, we probably all need to visit them more often than we do 🫠
There are some very sad looking people here 💔

Staying at my parents house for one night because the movie I saw was out here and we have a 10:30 am extended brunch with family - but since it’s not an extended stay I don’t have my cervical pillow with me and I can’t believe I’ve hit the phase of adulthood where this makes me deeply sad 🥲😅👵🏻

For some reason tonight I’m thinking about the class project we did in gr 3 where we made backpacks for our stuffed animals with a letter & then gave them to adults travelling the world. They were supposed to give them to another traveller who was to then return it back to us but mine disappeared

Meta/Facebook is aggressively pushing right wing & alt right BC politics into my feed, and there is nothing about my usage history to suggest that the algorithm should do that.
They’re blatantly interfering with politics in Canada & this may sound crazy but this shit is a threat to our democracy.

Just so it's clear. It's not allowing AI because it's trying to create a clean dataset for training AI. It's not because any of the involved parties actually care about human created art.

I know there are no ethical billionaires, but before we get the people with a conscience to give their $ away, can a few of them at least buy some large media companies and run them as a non profit with strongly codified rules about censorship/ownership meddling?
