Sunday Dinner OT
Tomorrow is Canada's Day of Truth and Deconciliation, observed in schools as Orange Shirt Day.
[A BC/ Codco post published as is by spaced99; will ask for forgiveness later]
The Gallery
It’s your weekly Photo Gallery! Come on in, take a look at what people have been up to over the past week and share some of your own photos.
They don’t need to be taken with a fancy camera or works of art. Share any SFW photos you’ve taken with even the poorest of potatoes. Of course we love to see that arty stuff too.

Thursday evening open thread
We had another hearing today where we gave a deposition. It won't have any effect on the decisions that were made in our case prior to this, but it sounds like they are going to tighten up some language, and close a loophole. Although it seems like these adjudicators have the discretion to throw out their rule book entirely. We gave a brief (5 minutes each) deputation, but we were unexpectedly hamstrung because they told us that we couldn't reference our case. So we had to try and change our language to "what ifs" and hypotheticals.
How was everybody else's day?

Sunday later OT
The "internet is out at home and I'm out of cell data so I'm sitting in my car outside a community centre for the wifi" OT. No photo, no bandwidth for that, but I imagine the Photo Gallery has many beautiful shots to peruse.
Talk amongst yourselves, I'm stuck in the 90s.

Thursday evening open thread
Tonight is the hearing about our zoning issue on our street. We seem to have stirred up a hornets' nest, but most of the arguments I'm hearing from opposition is along the lines of; "How dare they tell us what we can do on our own property; I thought that may one day, I might consider doing this thing that they don't want. Maybe. And they can't tell me otherwise". They are making emotional arguments, and think that we are too, when in fact, we will be armed with data.
So I probably won't be weighing in until sometime later in the evening, if at all.
(We'll see if my chosen gif works for anybody else; I didn't choose a Yarn gif this week)

Thaaaaaaat's it, folks. It's time to primal whine your way to a cleaner soul. What's making you pitch a fit at the moment?

Tuesday Evening Open Thread
When's the last time you looked in your refrigerator? I mean really looked in it. Embarrassing, right? Sure, it's clean and well stocked. But drab, even unattractive. Maybe it's time to start fridgescaping.Yes Balkers, if your fridge isn't artfully appointed, is your home even decorated? I can't decide if this is a thing people are actually doing or a trend created by the media. Thoughts?

First up we have a certain Critter displeased with noisy neighbors:

I'll be busy for most of the evening working on these letters and documents for yet another presentation about our street issues, so probably won't be weighing in until late, if at all, so talk amongst yourselves.

Tuesday evening OT
Good evening (or night or afternoon, depending on your time zone.) How goes it?
I think there's some sort of debate happening tonight. Not sure if I'm going to join a virtual watch party or hide under the covers with a book.

Sunday Dinner
Apparently the world is unaware of Canada's classic-est of classic bands. I think that's a shame. Unfortunately, their lead singer passed away from cancer in 2017. It's hard to express just how beloved The Tragically Hip are, especially to Canadians of a certain age.
So that's it really. I spent the day doing some work and listening to Hip albums from the 90s.
How's your Sunday going/ been?
