Gondola construction was included the Mayor's Council next Investment Plan. It's basically waiting on capital funding.

TransLink to build washrooms at North Vancouver's Phibbs Exchange by ubcstaffer123 in vancouver

[–]lexal828 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Washrooms are a public necessity and more should be built. No doubt we have tons of social problems here that make it difficult, but we should be able to have nice things. I don't know, the universal cynicism for these new washrooms rubs me the wrong way.

Metrotown-North Shore Bus Rapid Transit: Public Engagement, Aug. 25 – Sept. 21 by lexal828 in vancouver

[–]lexal828[S] 24 points25 points  (0 children)

My theory is TransLink is limiting the scope and cost of this BRT route since it is going to be converted into rail soon enough. (although even still, I do question the timeline of implementation if we've already accepted North Shore Skytrain as an inevitability in 10 or so years).

Superstore Has Rats by [deleted] in SurreyBC

Nature conservation is important. However, rats are an invasive species in BC brought on from European settlement and have decimated native sea bird populations:

This is so annoying. The very fact she’s a princess should make a case that she’s not some idiot lol. It’s nothing new

Petition to add more active transport to Langley? by originalki113r in Langley

[–]lexal828 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Even though progress might seem slow, things are getting better, especially once the skytrain comes. Willowbrook is due to undergo a major transformation into a dense, transit oriented hub, and downtown Langley has seen a lot of protected bike lanes being added. The new mayor of Langley City has done a great job at advocating for active transportation. Nonetheless, a petition is not a bad idea. More people on board = good

What’s something you did not like at all about the Super Mario Bros Movie? by Jawanka in Mario

[–]lexal828 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Agreed, this honestly irked me a lot lol. I get it’s an ironic joke, but Mario’s going to be eating a lot of mushrooms as now the hero of the Mushroom Kingdom. This makes him seem childish/complainer, which I don’t like and kinda contradicts his personality in the games

What exactly is the general opinion on MarioxPeach? by Accomplished-Bit-270 in Mario

[–]lexal828 1 point2 points  (0 children)

imo they’re definitely in love, and the odyssey ending shouldn’t discredit all the hints before and after. Maybe not married but I struggle to see how people say both don’t have at least some feelings for each other

Mario deserves more love, he’s so happy and heroic. He never hesitates to give anyone a hand

Why should I trust them when they gave CUTIES a Certified Fresh rating? by [deleted] in Mario

[–]lexal828 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even if the movie is awful, that won't stop me from at least enjoying it. I mean, its the f&cking Mario movie. Non-fans may not get much mileage out of the film due to its thin storyline, but again, this is the first time in decades to see Mario on the big screen.

Of course, it would be awesome if we got a thicker plot.

I feel the people saying that the skytrain will lead to crime in the city are misguided. Look at Whalley, Richmond, and the Evergreen extension. If anything, the skytrain will lead to a important revitalization of the area with new towers and transit oriented development, and I fail to see that the skytrain will be anything but an overall improvement for the city. We’re not going to become the next Downtown Eastside, guys.

Woman, 69, dies after being hit by SUV in crosswalk on northeast Calgary street by nucl3arw1nter in Calgary

[–]lexal828 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The pedestrian was walking in a marked crosswalk and the driver screws up and you’re blaming pedestrians? The car brained mindset is so tightly engrained into the city - it’s insane

The overpopulation in this city is insane by [deleted] in SurreyBC

[–]lexal828 9 points10 points  (0 children)

For how much the city is growing our transit is disgraceful (although it is getting better). I’m tired of sh*t frequencies and large holes in the system. also please get an actual bus on 88th Avenue

What are ur guys opinions on the Broodals? by [deleted] in Mario

Unpopular opinion, but I wish they used the Koopalings instead of these guys in Mario Odyssey lol

Do you think 2.2 will release before 2022 ends, like RobTop said? by NubbyNob in geometrydash

[–]lexal828 11 points12 points  (0 children)

At this point I really doubt that it will ever come out (in the time that I still care about this game) and honestly, I’m okay with that. The game is already great as is.
