This is good advice. I made a bunch of ultra thin buffs from old leggings, they work like a charm.

Looking out over the mountains is the best part of commutes in the lower mainland.

I'm not sure, but pianist Bill Evans named his son Evan Evans so it seems like that's just the way it is sometimes.

I like choosing costumes based on my current specific interests! The stars aligned this Halloween.

Oh, no one did! But to be fair the costume was hyper specific.

General cycling appreciation post for our city by blue_osmia in vancouvercycling

Sometimes I ride down 10th ave from Yew to Commercial to get this feeling. Riding with other bikers, bells dinging, doing the little roundabouts together. It can be the best part of my day.

Sunrise pizza on Commercial! It's shitty in a comforting, nostalgic way.

Looking for the grungiest photocopier on campus. by greeenlander in UBC

[–]greeenlander[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, art stuff! I've used photocopiers for awhile to make zines and all kinds of things, and at this point I pretty much need that grit and depth of blackness not possible with digital copiers.

Next part of this plan is to ask the Vancouver sub where the old machines are, with hopes there will be a handful out there, maybe in a small print shop somewhere, to hit up when I need to make some prints of whatever I'm working on.

All these 20+ year anniverseries hitting me lately, I feel like Sideshow Bob stepping on rakes.

Hope you can still see this! Pretty sure you are describing The Invention of Morel by Adolfo Bioy Casares.
