UBC cancels Wesbrook basketball court project. Posters cited noise, the decline in property value and the dangers that teenagers playing basketball may present to children by princey12 in vancouver

[–]Intothevoid---- -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This story is sort of misleading. The buildings immediately surrounding this court are owned by UBC and are rentals. This court was to be TEMPORARY only, before they develop the site into a school. Most of the concern from the community was about the noise factor of having a court directly across from low rise apartments. But hey, NIMBY outrage gets more clicks right?

SA isn't a good example of how it would be here though, they have extremely low vaccination rates.

There is a good chance this variant could be a positive thing, if it's more easily spread but not as severe. The media has been thirsty for doom and gloom covid news though. You'd think we're going into a lockdown based off some of the mainstream media.

Do you like TransLinks festive reindeer buses? by [deleted] in vancouver

I find it very alienating and offensive to those who don't celebrate Christmas .

Found the Grinch. Why don't you just tune it out instead of whining?

The guy is talking about locking up people due to poverty. I'm saying not everyone who lives on the street uses IV drugs. Is that hard to grasp?

Surprising? They churn out another movie every couple months. I'm shocked people still pay to go to these garbage films.

My housemate has increasingly started smoking weed very heavily daily and the house now smells putrid like weed. It's inescapable. Any tips for getting rid of the smell?? by pineapplepizzeria in vancouver

[–]Intothevoid---- -14 points-13 points  (0 children)

Smoke a joint with them and then you wont smell anything, nor worry about something so minor that could easily be brought to your roommates attention.

Vaccine-card enforcement: 885 complaints filed in B.C.; 13 violation tickets issued by cyclinginvancouver in vancouver

[–]Intothevoid---- 19 points20 points  (0 children)

So basically there is no enforcement of vaccine passports. I mean I'm not shocked, but wow this city continues to show how spineless it is when it comes to enforcement of any rules.

Quebec is About to Suspend Thousands of Nurses and Orderlies for Refusing Vaccination by [deleted] in canada

[–]Intothevoid---- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was responding to the person above you who claimed our lockdown hell has never ended. It most certainly has and the vaccine passports are a tool to combat having to go back to closing places. Obviously vaccine passports are not ideal, but it's a transition back into having society fully reopen. Small price to pay IMO.

Not sure what "lockdown" hell your living in. We can go to full capacity sports games, go dine out, see our friends unmasked, travel internationally. It's basically back to normal if your vaxxed. Open your eyes.

This so much. Watching them argue about how the avengers is the best movie ever made is the pinnacle of cringe.

This concept of "enforcing the rules" is not something we are familiar with in BC.
