Pictured: one unbothered tyke on a bike. Out of frame: at least 30 people unabashedly hucking leaves in the air and taking selfies 🍂🍁🍃 (Mountain View Cemetery, Vancouver)

Really sad to discover that the City of Vancouver has ended Mountain View Cemetery’s Night for All Souls. It feels incredibly out of touch to take away a beautiful community event that helps people move through innumerable types of grief, particularly this year. Hopefully it’s just a pause.

My delightful friend Ben’s newest novel, Seascraper, is out now. I’m really excited about this one because it apparently takes place over a day and a bit, and that’s all my little raisin brain can handle these days! Congrats, buddy! She’s a beaut! #benjaminwood

Happy Election Day, Vancouver. Vote with your hearts, say hello to every neighbour you see, and ask to pet all the dogs. We got this.

Torturing myself by looking at old travel photos today. One of my all-time faves: two retired passenger cars holding hands in the Wadi Rum desert 😍 #hejazrailway #jordan

The blossom trees of Vancouver are doing some heavy emotional lifting this week, bless ‘em.

Been taking care of these two ol’ boys for a friend. They have some toileting issues and a bit of doggy dementia but are the best snugglers and I will absolutely fight the world for them.

I’m infinitely grateful to Jennica Harper for introducing me to the poetry of Omotara James. Reading ‘Song of My Softening’ as a fat woman is a fucking gift, and the collection offers so much more beyond that.

I don’t want to add more chaos and confusion to your feeds, but Kenny Rogers is 42 in this picture.
