@valley_imaging I keep getting emails about bills that don't belong to me. How do I get that changed? I'm Canadian, I've never been here.

@UberEats Your customer service agent ended my chat mid conversation instead of helping me.

@nytimes Someone send the nyt a rice cooker

@apukwa I've had to rethink my budget and savings plans too. The ten year plan I made at age 30 was wildly over optimistic.

@kenpaquette I think I’d just pay the fine at that point. I’m too old to learn how to use TikTok 😭

Apparently sending my ID, hydro bills, phone bills, CRA correspondence, home insurance policy, and ICBC vehicle title is not enough proof for the city of Vancouver that I did indeed live in my condo for the year of 2021.

[Michelle L @AlbinoMouse]

@vb_jens My drivers license wasn’t sufficient I guess because I did not send my full ICBC history. So now they want to see my bc services card instead.

And then I get kicked out of the CoV site in the middle of uploading paperwork.

[Michelle L @AlbinoMouse]

Got selected for a @CityofVancouver empty home tax audit. One of the questions was whether I own other property in the CoV **or somewhere else**.

Not sure what business it is of the city to know about. I'm sure they won't use it for targeting future audits 🙄

[Michelle L @AlbinoMouse]

"Rescued and Upcycled" are not words I want to hear about my $10 smoothie 😅

[Michelle L @AlbinoMouse]

@CapitalOneCA I keep calling and your agents keep hanging up on me - they say they can't hear me but my reception is fine and the automated system is able to understand and hear me. Other calls have been fine. What is going on?

[Michelle L @AlbinoMouse]

@AskCapitalOne I've called twice and both times your agents say they can't hear me and then hang up. My phone is working fine and your automated system can understand me?

@pfak @thenetworkhub Minorities when convenient.
Part of the problem when convenient.

[Michelle L @AlbinoMouse]

This is a massive relief. We've wasted more than enough money on this.

[CBC News Alerts @CBCAlerts]

B.C. says it won't support a planned 2030 Winter Olympics bid. The government says the cost of bid, led by several First Nations along with Vancouver and Whistler, could jeopardize its ability to to serve the people of the province. https://t.co/UdYlrchuqD

@theLUCASTDS @pfak Funny how it's always the changes that *other* people should make

[Michelle L @AlbinoMouse]

@Seb_Zein That's pretty much it. People aren't okay with being told that their robbers and assailants are the actual "victims".

[Michelle L @AlbinoMouse]

I need to find my old EA SimCity gear

This is why people hate trucks in the city... Man has a full fledged driveway but can't be bothered to back into it.

[Michelle L @AlbinoMouse]

Voted 👍 #vanpoli

[Mayor Ken Sim @KenSimCity]

This is an absolutely heartbreaking story. Hamidullah Habibi escaped war-ravaged Afghanistan and became one of the victims of Vancouver's four daily random assaults. We must do more to ensure this kind of senseless violence becomes a thing of the past. #vanpoli
