A friendly-looking man with glasses, long hair, and long beard, semi-smiling at the camera. He's walking into a door carrying two bowls of fried eggs on rice for his partner, who is sick in bed, taking the photo.

My life with Long Covid Sunday:
Sitting in bed taking pills while Markus makes breakfast. He already packed the car with the (dis)robe: Hospital Gown for today's performance, & looked after the chickens. Grateful.

See you 1pm at the Museum of Vancouver!

A woman stands over an outdoor table, planting seeds into many trays full of soil. The seed plugs and pots are labelled with plastic forks and spoons, upon which are written the names of what she's seeding: zinnia, pink snapdragon, chocolate daisy, giant marigold, blanket flower, dianthus, marjoram, red poppy, thyme, dill and pleurisy root.

Caption, on a navy blue and teal gradient background: “Is it really invisible or are you not looking hard enough? Just because you can’t see us doesn’t mean we don’t exist. Just because our tests are normal doesn’t mean we are not sick.”

From Kitsilano to English Bay, Vancouver walking tour spotlights Black pioneers in early B.C. 'Our goal is to show that Black spaces and Black history exist everywhere in the city,' said tour guide Kor Kase.

A guided walking tour along English Bay and through Kitsilano — from the Museum of Vancouver to the Vancouver Maritime Museum — may surprise people who associate Black presence in Vancouver primarily with Hogan’s Alley.
