Heads up, Brothers Creek Trail users: To ensure public safety, a bridge located on the Brothers Creek Trail has been closed, and the second bridge is now limited to two users at a time. More info: westvancouver.ca/brothers-creek #WestVan

You’ve probably heard a lot lately about Jonathan Haidt's argument that smartphones and social media are taking a toll on the mental health of young people.
But you may not have heard as much about the other problem he identifies: parents. Our new video explains.

@thebsofe @waitbutwhy You see your unflipped face anytime you look at a photo of yourself
English
@waitbutwhy Weird, I thought about this recently.
It's even weirder that everyone see our face in the opposite orientation to how we do.
Others see our true, unflipped face😅

Really excellent and thought-provoking conversation between @tristanharris and @EstherPerel about technology's effect on relationships and where we're headed

@waitbutwhy I haven't seen it yet, but inaudible dialog has been a problem from his past films and you're not the only one to complain youtu.be/IINMq-p7qTE?t=…

@hyggewitch @JordanVegBike @CityofVancouver @Richmond_BC @WeAreHub @TransLink @MetroVancouver @VisionZeroYVR @DailyHiveVan Biking to IKEA is totally doable, just take the Canada line bridge. And you can stick to mostly bike paths on the Richmond side too ridewithgps.com/routes/43633994

@OPP_CR @TownOfCaledon At a 4-way stop on a completely desolate residential street. Thank you for the excellent PSA on the importance of blind rule-following over alertness & safety. You saved countless lives today.

Stop signs are for everyone - INCLUDING cyclists. Yes, you can get a ticket for not stopping at a stop sign on a bike. Road users, cyclists & motorists share safety responsibilities while using the roadways. #cyclesafe #drivesafe #communitysafety @TownOfCaledon #CaledonOPP ^im

@soren_iverson Why do you need an "Update" button? Isn't the slider interactive?

@internet_paolo @missteak @gregeh It's not all just paint, there is a separated bike lane from Thurlow to Richards
English
@missteak @gregeh For whatever it's worth I live a block away from Pacific and haven't heard anything. I've been notified about projects much further than that. Also, that pacific bike lane is just paint, removing it wouldn't even provide more access for drivers so I can't see why they'd do that.

@chellers95 Hey, I'm interested in hanging with some fellow local urbanists! Your DMs don't seem to be open - mind sending me the deets? Thanks

@Mr_Wind_Up_Bird @Mihai_Cirstea_ Is the purpose of a park to be a greenspace for the public to enjoy, or to be a profit generator?
Also, I always see cyclists mulling around Prospect Point, thirsty for refreshments after climbing the hill, with no place to spend their money

Paolo@internet_paolo
Seriously @ParkBoard how is this place still closed? Prospect point is packed with potential customers. This is not only a terrible use of commercial real estate but it’s an eyesore, give this space to a local business that will actually use it.

So tired of these cyclists creating constant traffic jams in Stanley Park!!!

@calleymeans @DrNadolsky ad hominem. engage with his argument & the data he's presenting.
English
@DrNadolsky You’re so obviously on the wrong side of history and science doctor.
The fact that almost every comment here is from someone who has a financial interest in getting lifetime patients on Ozempic shows me all I need to know.
English
False.
When you look at subgroup analyses of semaglutide the lean mass losses were high 30s%.
When you look at subgroup analyses of tirzepatide (even more powerful) the lean mass losses are mid 20s%.
My patient's and follower's body comp analyses are show between 10-20% loss.
Calley Means@calleymeans
Ozempic makes you fatter. It enables weight loss by decreasing muscle (not fat), which is devastating to health. The FDA didn't take this into account for approval and will be forced to revise guidance. No taxpayer money should go towards this drug.

Today we’re releasing “The A.I. Dilemma” – a new talk @aza and I gave on 3/9, a week before GPT4 launched.
*Pls share it widely.* It's critical for institutions to understand how the race between AI labs is accelerating the likelihood of catastrophe:

LISTEN: Vancouver, you can hear me talk with @JasJohalBC on @CKNW around 3:35pm PDT on the protected active-transport lane decision for Broadway and why building protected bike-lane networks in cities is so important for EVERYONE, whether you personally ever ride a bike or not.
English
BREAKING: Despite the most one-sided (in both # of speakers & how informed/persuasive the speakers were) night of supportive public delegations on urban biking I’ve ever seen, Vancouver’s ABC majority on City Council just rejected the protected active transport lane on Broadway.
Brent Toderian@BrentToderian
Today Vancouver City Council is hearing from speakers about whether the newly-built Broadway “great street” will include an “active transport lane” aka a safe, protected bike-lane. I support putting the lane in NOW, while the street is already torn up for the subway construction.
English
@pwaldkirch Women and children be damned! If Meiszner feels safe on 10th that's all that matters.
English
Meiszner: bike along parallel routes, take the lane. I never felt the need for bike lane on broadway, appreciate 10th because its slower and more residential.
wow, that's...rough
English
Ok, Council should be back any moment now with the debate and vote on whether to keep the commitment to build an active transportation lane on Broadway, or to effectively kill it.
Will ABC go 0 for 2 in big active transportation decisions? Or will we get safe infra on Broadway?
Peter Waldkirch 華彼德@pwaldkirch
After removing the Stanley Park bike lane, a vote to effectively kill the Broadway active transpo lane would give ABC a real anti-active transpo reputation. Do they care? We'll see.
