As we say goodbye to #2024, let's take a look back at a few of this year's highlights.
From exciting achievements to world-class events and beyond, it's been a standout year for our city. And the best part? We're just getting started.
Cheers to an even more exciting year ahead!

@CityofVancouver This is a horrible plan with devastating consequences to area residents.
I used to love Vancouver, back when it was green and friendly. Now it's just concrete, construction, noise, and tiny expensive cubicles in glass towers. Painful and inhumane.

Call me crazy but maybe decrying that gov't overreach killed a squirrel while ignoring women killed by abortion bans isn't a terrific move for your double digit gender gap

@mmitchell_ai wait until you start considering the idea of having a black person winning the Nobel in Physics.

Marie Curie was the first woman to win the Nobel Prize. This didn't happen because she herself fought for it -- although she did fight hard the whole way to even get to that point. 👩🔬
What happened was that the award was offered to her husband, Pierre. (1/n) 🧵

Congratulations to our 2024 medicine laureate Victor Ambros ✨ This morning he celebrated the news of his prize with his colleague and wife Rosalind Lee, who was also the first author on the 1993 'Cell' paper cited by the Nobel Committee. #NobelPrize

Shoes on the Danube Bank is a Holocaust Memorial in Budapest dedicated to over 20,000 Jews who were marched to the river, forced to remove their shoes, and executed by Nazis in WW2.
Yellow Ribbons are tied to the memorial in honor of those murdered, raped and kidnapped on 10/7.

VERY close call. They brought me up to a shared room, despite it explicitly being noted I couldn’t share a room due to my degree of immunocompromise.
I told them I was prepared to sign out AMA. I’ll have to wait but they are now working on finding me a shared room.

But this was so rapid (both decline and recovery) that I don’t think I could or would be in lactic acidosis?
But wow has this week been all kinds of body dramatic.

Haha. Beacon has decided I’m feeling better enough to bug me to play with him 😉.
Seriously, though, his accuracy is pretty decent. Earlier he was watching me quietly from the doorway to the bedroom. As I started feeling better he came for cuddles. Now he’s herding me a bit.
