Hello! I'm on the hunt to find some of the crush soda "birch beer" anyone see any around?

On the beautiful days I like to go out and enjoy the sun. Only place around here is near a busy intersection.

After a while, I began to notice something. Some people will turn off their car while waiting at the red then start and go at the green.

Doesn't everyone know that the more you use something, the sooner it breaks?

Hey! I'm a chronically ill/in pain person with good and bad days, with a partner who's currently in burnout. My main issue causes me to really struggle to bend down even on better days. Lately, its been a bit more bad days than good, and the house is looking a lil rough even with doing what I can. We are also both people that get very anxious in an unclean space, so its aggravating all the stress.

I have the money to treat us to a nice, official house clean. The issue is, we aren't struggling with the cleaning as much as with dealing with some large unorganized corners (to give you an idea, we havent been able to properly put away even our christmas decorations yet).

No matter where I look, I can't find anyone who's offering cleaning AND organizing. I also don't really want to go with someone with "a list". I don't want to be left with a half-done space or have to hire separate people, so I'm curious if anyone has any suggestions/good folks to recommend?

where is recommended to buy top loader, basic washer and dryer?

24 year old woman who went into river off Schubert Dr not found yet, went down with car. A bystander went in & saved one person, very sad. It was on Global news tonight.

I suspect ASK Wellness is brainstorming new names for Leland House.

Watch the video in the article. Specifically, Nelly Dever’s reaction to being asked about whether the Performing Arts Centre will be opened if she is elected as mayor. No member of Pivot Kamloops should ever be allowed to be in council. All that Pivot Kamloops wants is for Kamloops to only be the pit stop that’s miserable and stagnant for everyone forever. Pivot Kamloops doesn’t care about the city’s future. Pivot Kamloops only wants to make sure that they and their sheltered picket fence status quo dry chicken enthusiast NIMBY base are grinning ear to ear while everyone else suffers the consequences of their short sighted and regressive decision making.

Does anyone have any recommendations for a nail tech in Kamloops? Specifically one who is experienced in hard gel and nail health.

I'm here for work and I've heard great things about the local trail. But there doesn't seem to be any bike shops doing rentals, which is surprising. Have I missed something?

Electricians in town that are knowledgeable and reasonably priced.

Hi all!

I am wondering if there is a group of people here who have organized around climate activism and or social justice. I’m looking to channel my anxieties into action!

My last data centre post was helpful so just shooting my shot again!

Looking to get connected with like minded people cause I am feeling hopeless about the state of the planet.

Thanks!

These prices are crazy! I want to buy directly from Kamloops area farmers. It will cut out the middle man and the food will be locally produced, supporting the local economy.

The farmers get ripped off at the Farmers Market...... the City charges them to set up a table, they have to pay for parking, they have to load and unload produce (which takes man hours and leads to spoilage, which in turn increases prices for consumers). Its silly.

What happened to the U-pick farms? Is there a way to start a local farm directory that we can all use to buy direct from local farmers? Im not technological.... but there are people who are. We could all benefit from an app that connects farmers with consumers.... and whoever develops such an app would likely do very well!

"Farm to table" they say.....

Why are we paying $23.13/kg for lean ground beef thats been shipped across the country for 12 days and stored/processed for another 10?!

Bring back U-pick farms!

(Just saying. My rant for the day following a trip to Sarah's YIG)
