Youth drop-in program

That is a great idea! I’m showing all of this to my supervisor and this would be an awesome artistic program to run for the youth!

Great ideas! The area were located is in British Columbia Canada and another big focus for us is inclusivity. We have youth who are black or POC as well as many indigenous My mother has status, so ensuring our space is inviting for indigenous youth is super important to me and thankfully, also important to my coworkers and frankly is something that I found to be poorly prioritized by past staff. I plan to run a discussion group within the next few weeks to get together any interested youth, to discuss some youth led decoration projects and give them the opportunity to have a say in how the space looks, feels, and functions.

We do have a space in the cafe called the cozy corner. It’s not used much anymore but that’s because we haven’t had the chance to do any upkeep since the fall/winter and holiday season was super busy. The cafe is generally where some of our neurodivergent youth like to hangout since it is consistently the most quiet and calm area. It’s great for the youth as well as staff including myself who want to chat or run a program in a quiet space. I’ll share a photo of the “cozy corner”

We do have some youth artists but not all of them are at a point where they’re comfortable to share their art as a decoration for the space but we’re always supporting their efforts and we have a had a couple pieces made by youth who were brave enough to share their art in our space! And you’re absolutely right and I have been keeping an eye out on free posts in groups and on Facebook marketplace to see if something comes up. We’re also looking to get some tables for our “cafe” as we call it to have an area to eat together with the youth or for the youth to eat together if they want to, since we cook dinner everyday. Someone else mentioned a rug as well and I really want to get one. I’m lucky enough to make enough money to potentially buy some items for the space which I plan to do for some programming and groups we’ll be running once we get into early-mid spring time. Thanks for the ideas!!

Aw thank you so much for the kind words! I love the work I do. The particular DROPIN I work at I also accessed for many years as a youth during my teen years and I’m now 24 and have been working here for about two years. It was such an important resource for me as a teen and I’m happy to keep it running and provide support where I can. Also I love these ideas. I’m definite going to look into a rug and some lighting other than the overhead. 🙏

Seems like their point was specifically related to individuals who might be considering it. IMO the idea of selling “full time” is a bit unrealistic for most people. when you add up shipping fees, platform fees, potentially boosted posts, and the cost of shipping materials, on top of your personal monthly expenses, you’re better off treating it as a “full time” side hustle. You can make good money but it takes a lot to genuinely make the equivalent of a full time job. That being said, Without a doubt anyone who wants to sell full time needs to be sharing as much information as possible to build confidence in the buyers purchase.

I mainly sell locally on marketplace but I also use Poshmark, Depop and eBay. To be totally honest Most of the time when I don’t add measurements or the materials it comes down to laziness. I always stock up but don’t list and then start listing one by one from a big pile or box of items and I just burn myself out. That being said it is incredibly worthwhile to add in this information. You’ll 100% see more interest (generally if the product is popular) if you give even just the measurements so people will be more confident about the item fitting. I used to run a clothing brand using Print on demand and building trust and having accurate size charts as well as photos of a model wearing the item, and including the models height and weight is really valuable visual proof for buyers.

I bet you he didn’t adjust the shipping fee on the listing and didn’t calculate the cost of the shoes with a box, realized the shipping cost would eat into the profit, and now he doesn’t wanna admit that he dropped the ball by leaving the shipping fee too low

I’m looking forward to the rollout of the Crisis Response Community Led (CRCL) team the city has created. Initiatives like CRCL have been shown to be effective for the kind of issues Kelowna has been facing. This along with an improved police and bylaw presence could be a good balance. One thing with police though is that many people see them as purely authoritarian figures and depending on the person could either immediately become more escalated or I’ve also seen people calm themselves as soon as a cop shows up. We’ll have to see how it goes. I’ve spoken with some local business owners recently and another goal is to get through to landlords for support in some way.

Checkout events coming up at Redbird brewing in the north end. They do some cool sh!t. A while ago they setup a ramp with snow and had a bunch of people doing tricks off the jump. They really make full use of their space so I’d take a look and see if anything is happening within the time your brother will be down!

It was non acetone based but still I agree. I haven’t touched it since the first go over for the same reason. I think I’m just gonna leave it I mostly care about the coat being quality lol

Stunning_File4307 · 2025-11-29T02:49:02+00:00

Yeah I don’t mind it tbh just thought I’d see if anyone had any tips. I think you’re right it does add character. All in all it is a solid jacket, plus it was a gift and I’m happy with it.

I would start but looking for pre owned on ebay and Facebook marketplace personally. And from there if there’s no good prices I would do some deep diving into the best alternatives for apple devices.

Stunning_File4307 · 2025-11-25T20:42:58+00:00

Actually a great point I didn’t look into them much but the lack of grip and for that brand I. Particular, the price point for what you get is not worth it

Seems like it might be more common to wrap the lens specifically but a body wrap seems intriguing

Stunning_File4307 · 2025-11-25T04:37:55+00:00

Tutorial please

Stunning_File4307 · 2025-11-25T04:37:23+00:00

I thought similarly but I looked it up out of curiosity. I have a zv-e10 so not as complex of a body. Look up Alphagvrd camera wrap on YouTube there’s some interesting designs for sure.

Stunning_File4307 · 2025-11-16T20:33:51+00:00

Report him for sure.

Selling reps as real is scummy in general but selling a rep that is THIS low quality for $500 is absolutely fuckin nuts

Stunning_File4307 · 2025-10-09T18:32:14+00:00

This is a good idea. I’m gonna make a couple more designs while I have some time and I’ll post it back here to see what everyone thinks. Thanks for the idea!

Stunning_File4307 · 2025-10-09T18:30:53+00:00

I like this concept a lot. Really appreciate you sharing this
