The voice of a particular Victoria neighbourhood. We're dissociating. From you. From ourselves. We’ll write a better bio later. Harm reduction, cycling, stopping genocide, clover point discourse, owning the NIMBYs, etc. etc.

Cyber Monday is here and deals are going fast! These deals are diaphanous. They are receding even as we speak, becoming mere memories of deals, prices longed for but lost, hints at what could have been had for less. A golden slant of sun through window falls on an empty countertop. Act now.

Regulation saves lives. When drug regulations aren't strict people die. They don't have to die. Alcohol, opioids, stimulants: regulations save lives. In Canada we only strictly regulate alcohol and thankfully a tainted supply doesn't exist. We could regulate more.

There's a chapter in the review titled, Squaring the circle of LNG expansion with climate security and economic diversification

It notes BC has nowhere near the electricity supply needed to electrify LNG production #bcpoli

A 2021 study in Ontario found that, of those people who were employed when they died of an overdose, 1/3 worked in the trades. And in BC, it's half.

Many people are being constantly displaced and having their stuff stolen by bylaw. They have no home to go to and insufficient public services, but some downtown Victoria business owners “feel” safer, so.

A climate deal without explicit language calling for a fossil fuel phaseout is like a ceasefire without explicit language calling for a suspension of hostilities.

On this Trans Day of Remembrance, I hope Albertans will remember that trans kids and teens are living breathing humans who just want to be themselves, without fear of hate and discrimination. Demonizing kids merely to score political points in some weird culture war is craven and cruel.
