So the parking restriction signs outside my building have somehow fallen down.
Anyone know the best way to report something like this?

The first thing I'd try is to go to vancouver.ca, and use the instant message (question or comment) chat function during business hours to ask / report it. I've reported stuff like this and asked other questions before, and it seems to be a real person on the other end replying to my questions.

Even if that doesn't directly solve the reporting issue, I'm sure they can point you to the right direction.

I found a case of TikTok censorship. You can't search anything with the word "Hitler" in it.

The link directs me to an official website about the halocaust

I was trying to find more info about Hitler and how it relates to the current day AFD far-right political party.

Marie Le Pen thinks they are too radical, and far to the right for even her to want to associate with.

"A movement that has fallen under the sway of its most radical fringe no longer seems to me to be a reliable and suitable ally."

That's beyond ugly.

So, my weekday routine is to roll out of bed at 7:30 am to take my meds. Then, I go back to sleep. I usually go to bed at around 2:00 to 4:00 am. Lots of power naps. Anyway, I need something, an incentive to get up. I started listening to 70's on 7 on SiriusXM. 9:00 am, our time, this chick, Lisa Evans comes on to host the show. Such a calming voice. She broadcasts from Edmonton, Alberta, so lots of Canadian content there. This morning, she mentioned something about the origin of the group's name, Steely Dan. She couldn't mention it on the air, but she did say it was inappropriate. Lol, I had to google it...........

https://americansongwriter.com/behin...me-steely-dan/


I need to see it in action. Howard Stern? I remember he had a show with chicks (pornstars) riding on a Sybian.


Who says the Internet is full of bad things? Lots of educational content on it.

Okay, now I have to read and then watch the movie.............. thanks.



WTF? Read? I have never in my life read a book from start to finish. I survived university literature classes winging it. Read start, then end and figure out what's in the middle.


Edit: I lied. I did read some, but they were compilations of short stories. Best one was some short stories by some famous Chinese writer from back in the whatever dynasty. Part of my asian studies courses.

Just to give you an idea of what to expect, there is a typewriter in the movie that is actually a gigantic cockroach, and it opens its wings to reveal a huge butthole that the author sprinkles drugs onto

American airlines plane with 65 people crashed with a Blackhawk helicopter in Washington DC. Looks like everyone is dead.

Beats Fox blaming Biden for the cargo ship crashing into the Baltimore bridge or the price of eggs.

That said I do think directly blaming Trump for this is silly - yes he did fire the head of the TSA and Coast Guard, he froze the hiring of air traffic controllers, and he gutted an aviation safety committee BUT none of that happened long enough ago that this is his fault.

How he and his crew of merry idiots respond to it will then justify fault (and I have zero hope that him and his crew of idiots know how to handle this).

Read somewhere that the Blackhawk military helicopter was on a military training flight ??!! ... near Ronald Reagan airport?

Oh boy ... Trump, Pete Hegsmith & JD Vance actually putting a spin on this as part of the problem of DEI. "When we don't have the best and the brightest who are the most competent doing these jobs ... " Blaming Obama, Biden, DEI hiring program.

I tried to read it over the break, its hard to get into it.

But likely because its written from the perspective of a recovering heroin addict

This is an off topic forum, so here's an off topic, topic............

You know how athletes have a song they like and when they are introduced, they play it. In baseball, every time you come up to the plate, they play "the" song.

If hobz was a baseball player, this would be his song.........

Spoiler!
