Camped out on Mt. Seymour this weekend, it felt surreal to look down on the city that night.

I'm sorry to hear that was your experience. With the right therapist that works for both parties involved usually you can make progress. For me I never made an ultimatum, but I knew from experience that therapy would provide us with a safe place to talk and listen and hopefully find common ground. Unfortunately with my sister ,talking one on one had not worked, so I felt like I only had one last option in the bag.

My sister and are are very similar, but also polar opposites in world view. But there is so much more to that story than just having different world views. I made the decision to disconnect after suggesting we try family therapy, and being rejected, ultimately it was very good for my mental health and I feel significantly better overall.
I had been in a similar place with my mother, however after a year of family therapy with her, we have worked out our issues and become better people for it. So I don't just write people off, I certainly have talked about my decisions with my own therapist, and those were the right decisions to make at the time.
Dude, we still have almost a month of summer left.
First Nations are closing Joffre LAkes access until September 30th

god damn human-driven climate change
This has taken them way too fucking long to do. By the time we expand to three lanes, there will be more than enough cars on the road to cause regular similar congestion
Complete and utter game changer
lmfao, this made my day.
I've been trying to get Pure Fibre installed for almost three years now in a small townhouse complex in Citadel Port Coquitlam, and its taking forever, called multiple times, made multiple requests, and I'm stuck at a very unreliable 70mpbs. I'd be happy with 1, let alone 3gps.
TIL the barges that line the Pitt River are actually the remnants of the world's longest floating bridge in Seattle, WA

The blaze was estimated at about 2,000 square metres early Wednesday evening but no structures were being threatened
Looks like propane firepits are not banned based on the following bulletin: https://blog.gov.bc.ca/bcwildfire/campfire-prohibition-coming-to-southeast/
The website says "all campfires", but still trying to figure out if that includes propane fire pits.
The ban comes after lightning combined with tinder-dry conditions to spark a huge surge in wildfires over the weekend. Find out more.
Just remember, you have to book ahead. You can't just go on a whim!
The park is now ƛ̓éxətəm Regional Park, which means "to be invited" in the Kwikwetlem First Nation's language
So many!
When we go swimming and spend extended time in water, do the little bugs who live on our skin suffocate and die?
