Get on a bike. Put on a mask. Do a silly dance. Think Winnipeg thoughts.

Good thing this sort of mixup will never happen in Winnipeg because we don't even have an airport

Yep, because why wait to see how it works out for our neighbours when we can switch it up last minute... Shocking to me that not changing a clock is such a priority atm for so many Manitobans www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

If you have covid, you should stay home. That being said...it is interesting that AOC is the first person I've seen shamed in at least 3 years for doing a thing that 100s of millions of people have been doing for the last 3 years because 99.2% of society has agreed to give 0 shits about covid

Turns out Corydon Biz got the secret amazingly correct weather forecast. Still sad it ended early, but I am slightly consoled by the fact that the motorcycles probably aren't blasting up and down Corydon at full volume in this weather

Looks like Open Corydon will be ending at 4pm tomorrow (the last day for the year) because ...checks notes... there's a 40% chance of rain. So disappointing. I went to Wolseley Farmer's Market 2 days ago in heavy rain and it was still packed. Seems almost fishy....

"Funny" that all the conservative think pieces have been "Yay! Judges deciding this sort of thing is disgusting overreach" and none have been "Boo! The provincial government ripping out municipal infrastructure is disgusting overreach"

If you've heard MapQuest is committed to keeping it Lake Ontario, but you are doubtful whether your life would improve by leaving Google maps behind... You can be a goblin or unicorn in MapQuest!!

And I'm pretty sure if someone was assaulted at a bus stop to the point of needing hospitalization, the media wouldn't frame it as being "knocked down"

I still mask up when I'm indoors and not in my own home. It's been incredibly lonely and isolating. Sometimes I think about a 2023 survey that said 7/10 Canadians would support a return of mask mandates. Yet, when I would go to the grocery store during this time, I usually be the only one masked ..

I have small social circles, but I know several very non-"high risk" people who nevertheless had their lives destroyed by long covid. Young people with no health conditions who run marathons and eat kale. I assume everyone knows of cases like this. I don't understand why this doesn't bother people

Based on what the media has been saying lately...the vehicle was definitely an escooter, right?

For anyone who thinks only the wacky Alberta UCP government will rig a survey to excuse ripping out bike lanes, I present the federal Liberals who clearly have an issue with not enough AI in the arts. Because not enough super cool awesome AI is the number one issue in Canada's art scene 🙄

So Corydon isn't closed to cars today, apparently. Would probably make more sense to close more streets to cars and discourage people from making unnecessary trips during extreme heat events, but what do I know

And I take it the pickup truck stayed on the scene and cooperated with police?

Silver lining: I know 3 three about World Cup history and one of those things is that England hasn't won it in many many many years. So either they'll win it and we can stop hearing them be sad about that..or they'll lose again after getting oh, so close

I recently deleted 98% of my photos from Google. Now instead of getting notifications about fun from my last vacation, I get increasingly unhinged reminders: "6 years ago, you made a pizza!" "On this day, 10 years ago, you took a picture for a warranty claim" "Remember when <all black pic>"

Actually, I think they should settle tied games by a "who can fake an injury the best"-off

Kate @rin-doodles.bsky.social · 11/07/2026
I think when two teams have rather similar flags, if they are tied at the end of regulation time - they should have the option to merge half of each team into a new team, like Norland or Engway

Are all sports game broadcasts interrupted by tornado warnings during the summer? Or is maybe something with the climate changing? Asking for a friend who only watches winter sports.

Finally! But also, is it even legally binding if it doesn't have a giant NEW marker on it? (Lolz just jokes, laws only exist if there are consequences for breaking them)

Provincial government: "Hey, we just saved everyone 85 cents on a $150 grocery spend.... Ummm, hey Winnipeg - give us one million dollars for the zoo!" City of Winnipeg: "Sure thing boss. 1 mil is barely a rounding error for roads or cops budget, but nah - let's fuck them trees!"

My favourite part of soccer though, is when the mommy and daddy refs tell the soccer boys they can play for 5 more minutes after the game is over

I thought there'd be more chants and group dances and fewer men rolling around on the ground pretending they are hurt. I dunno - seems like soccer is the worst part of the World Cup

No shade to either variety of football, but 3 is the correct number of segments in a sportsball game. Beginning. Middle. End.

If we keep voting in the same council, they are likely to spend $50 million to fix the parkade so they can sell it to the cops for $1

Not that we need anymore division in society, but I've never understood why garage parkers don't get more annoyed with outdoor parkers. Like first they just park in the street while I park in my own my own property, like a chump, and now I have to subsidize their hail damage?

When there actually is a tornado in the Winnipeg area, no one will believe it until a house falls on top of them like in the Wizard of Oz
