An insufferable Karen recently moved from the States is wanting to single-handedly change the usage of our historically off-leash Pacific Spirit Park, to restrict our pups' amenities. I don't have enough characters on this platform for all the rambling against this I could do, so I'll just invite all of you to read through the petition and ADD YOUR VOICE to get this ridiculous request forever ignored.

Thank you kindly.

Walking my dog, secretly hoping The Dogist sees us and asks if we want a free photo shoot.

I live in Vancouver, Canada.

I never thought I'd need to write so much a word that I have to spell check every single time.

Sovereignty is hard to nail, man. In more way than one.

And in case you've missed it, this past weekend in #Argentina 🇦🇷 there's been a *MASSIVE* take to the streets (~2 million people) in protest of President Milei's 'anti-wokism' speach of intolerance.

This protest has had a ripple effect in other South American and European countries, who also organized their own 'Antifascist and Antiracist Pride🏳️‍🌈 March' in support.

The biggest, fattest silver lining I can see in all this tariffs shit storm is how, for once, partisan politics has taken a back seat in Canada, and we mostly present UNITED AND MOTIVATED TO NOT TAKE IT LAYING DOWN. Either thanks to a resurgence of Canadian patriotism, or due to the fact that we are absolutely shitting our pants by how this is going to impact our lives while we continue to struggle with post-COVID hardships.

I remember when I felt some type of selfish relief that the Russian war on Ukraine felt so, so far away. Now Trump is following the same playbook with Canada (and Panama, and Greenland) with the goal of destabilizing global economy for short-term gain. It's beyond crazy.

Just like the 'First they came' poem about silent complicity.

Petition to start referring to US people as 'Unitedstateans'. Print MUGA hats and everything.

Let's take back our continent and identity, north, central and south.

Boycott American Goods. Boycott American Gods.

First #Cartems and now the Vancouver Mural Fest.

We are losing what makes this city unique, one local project at a time.

Starting a business here is an uphill battle, and keeping it afloat even more difficult.

Instead, you are encouraged to work a menial 9-to-5 at some corp, and invest your savings in an index fund (that goes to corps).

Putting money and effort towards creating a small business that ACTUALLY ADDS VALUE BACK INTO THE COMMUNITY is becoming a pipe-dream.

Remember when our most hated tech billionaire was...

Bill Gates?

Simpler times, hey?
