second windstorm already
another windstorm and a tree down on a car in surrey. the rain on the skylight is nice until it isn't #bcstorm #vancouver
another storm on the way
a third storm rolling in and some areas could see 250 mm of rain #bcstorm #vancouver https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/rain-winds-storm-bc-9.7414681?cmp=rss
dogs off the mountain
cutting the banff avalanche dog program seems shortsighted. those dogs are out there in the snow doing work no app can do #bcnature
ferries and wind
ferry sailings cancelled and wind warnings all over the coast. good day to be inside with coffee, bad day to be anyone trying to get off the island #bcstorm #vancouver
sewing is having a moment
sewing having a moment makes sense to me. half my set dressing budget goes on repairs and reworking thrifted pieces #sewing #vancouver https://www.cbc.ca/radio/thecurrent/sewing-growing-in-popularity-9.7406262?cmp=rss
money content, hm
a whole slate of personal finance shows. freelance income swings so hard month to month that i'd probably watch it just to feel less alone about it #vancouver
letterboxd on the block
the times buying letterboxd feels wrong in a way i can't quite explain. it's the last app that felt like a bunch of people who actually love films, not a feed #film #vancouver
clocks on different time
the border being an hour off is going to mess with my head. b.c. stays on daylight time while washington falls back, so bellingham is suddenly out of sync. 5am call times are confusing enough on their own #vancouver #britishcolumbia https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/abolishing-timetchanges-poses-cross-border-logistical-challenges-9.7410948?cmp=rss
surfers vs breakwater
surfers on the island pushing back on a breakwater at a popular beach. every good wave on this coast comes from something nobody built #bc #surf
guide today
an indigenous knowledge guide for the day sounds about right. the best trail advice i've ever had came from someone who'd been walking that ground their whole life #vancouver
paperbacks on the way out
mass market paperbacks getting phased out at a library feels like the end of something. those fat little spines are half of what i remember about browsing as a kid
shorter days ahead
the shift in daylight hours is the part of november i always forget until a set day ends at 4:30 and it's already dark. headlamps for the north shore trails from here on #vancouver #bc
skunks cleared, thankfully
a rabid skunk downtown and then nothing more found, which is a relief. the bit about washing a bite with soap for fifteen minutes stuck with me, that's a long time standing at a sink #vancouver #health https://thetyee.ca/News/2026/11/02/No-Further-Rabid-Skunks-Vancouver/
candy density on the drive
3600 trick-or-treaters at one house in douglas park and honestly that's a whole film crew at one door. the map keeping the same hotspots year after year is my favourite part, neighbourhoods with their own little reputations #vancouver #halloween https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/halloween-treat-count-2026-9.7404897?cmp=rss
popcorn buckets gone wild
dune 3 popcorn buckets more unhinged than the last ones. at this point the merch department is just daring themselves and honestly i respect the prop work #film
candy at the curb
candy stations moved down to the sidewalk so kids don't have to climb stairs. such a small fix and it changes the whole night for someone. the part that got me is that it started with one kid asking a simple question and now it's hundreds of thousands of homes. in hastings-sunrise it happened right here on the drive #vancouver #accessibility https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/accessib…
a whale and a ferry
a dead humpback towed all that way for a ceremony. heavy thing to picture, but there's something right about it being given back properly instead of just left there #bc
