Before I go on Etsy, are there any laid-off game artists in my follower/repost pool who would be available for a custom DnD party art commission? Four characters, a few special requests, preferably by Christmas? DM me! I have money!

The Canucks in-house dj just played a song about Travis Kelce’s dick while a minor league hockey team was playing during the intermission. That’s… a choice.

Did you feel shaking in Yukon at 1:41 p.m. MST today? That was a M7 #earthquake near the seismically active YK-AK border and 250 km to the west of #Whitehorse.
Shaking was felt across much of Yukon and southeastern AK.
Details and report shaking:

Wait, I didn't think of this as an option! I would absolutely home swap my BC Place-adjacent apartment for an apartment in any of these countries.
I need to stop watching live sporting events. It never ends in happy feelings.

Related: we're looking for a family from either Switzerland, New Zealand, or Belgium to swap places during the World Cup.

When I'm walking this is the No. 1 way I almost get hit and as a driver I find this super stressful, super in favour.

"When Hannibal tells Clarice he ate that guy’s liver with 'some fava beans and a nice chianti,' that is a metaphor for eating figgy pudding and eggnog with a big Christmas ham. Movies are filled with metaphors and symbols; you just have to look for them."
Yes, The Silence of the Lambs Is a Christmas Movie
It’s the debate that just won’t die: is The Silence of the Lambs a Christmas movie? Naysayers say “nay” and they say “nay” because it’s a movie wit...

So people with media/culture criticism gigs who are writing or talking about Heated Rivalry right now: please, if you have never picked up a romance novel before, I'm begging you, either close-read at least a dozen from different subgenres, or pass the critique baton to somebody who has.

Seems like a good day for another plea to use Alt Text and in particular to use proper names.
Please please please use proper names in Alt Text. No cutesy nicknames for evil monsters, no asterisks in place of vowels. Let the mute words do their thing.

Maybe we could do a new animated Star Trek show that follows the adventures of, oh, I dunno, a group of lieutenant junior officers in Starfleet, maybe, like, five of them, I dunno, just spitballing ideas here
Obvi what we need is a new animated Star Trek show

I'm thinking today of the dozens of CoV team members that Ken Sim has fired, right before the holidays, thanks to his election-year budget stunt.

Workers keep us moving. We need to invest in our city and its services, and we need great people working for our city to do that.

Good news! There’s a new light-up Vancouver sign in downtown Vancouver
Bad news, it’s so close to the sidewalk you need to use 0.5 and also almost back up into traffic on Georgia to get a photo with all the letters in it 😅

Only rumours and hearsay right now, but apparently there were many non-unionized layoffs at the City today with no notice and immediate lock-out. If you're trying to reach someone specific at the city and can't, this might be the reason.

In a world where sadly your dollar is an endorsement, i really will be side eyeing everyone who posts their Spotify wrapped this year. Your dollar is being used to pay for AI warfare actively killing people. Your dollar makes them feel comfortable with running ICE ads. Cancel that shit already.

FYI as you head into the holiday season:

Shopify is a Canadian company, but its CEO Tobi Lütke is Maple MAGA in both words & monetary support (under the guise of “free speech” & “open commerce”).
Really beginning to hate Shopify, they are doing a lot to make shopping shittier lately
