I made some Vancouver inspired businesses for a game I’m making. What do you think?

It’s for an upcoming still WIP Roblox game I’m making by myself. You may have seen this already as I often post updates in this subreddit.

The game is completely free and playable. I handcrafted everything out of individual rectangles, cylinders, and wedges (besides vehicles and vegetation)

There’s not much to do for now besides driving around and exploring the map..

Is anyone missing their pre-rolled?

We found them on the floor of a car we picked up at YVR today. If you can identify the product and the vehicle (the vehicle license plate which will be in the billing section of the app) we'd like to return them to you!

Help identify “Lucky” / “Chris the Canadian” — man in Amsterdam who lost his identity after a brain hemorrhage in 2023

What’s known so far:

**•**	On **10 May 2023** he collapsed on the street near the **Middenweg in Amsterdam-Oost** and was taken to the OLVG hospital.  
**•**	Doctors found he’d had a **brain hemorrhage or stroke**, leaving him with **aphasia** — he can barely communicate and cannot tell anyone his name, address, or history.  
**•**	He now lives in a care home in Amsterdam-Zuidoost.  
**•**	He was a member of a **Buddhist community on the Middenweg**, where people knew him by the nickname **“Lucky.”**  
**•**	He also occasionally drank at the shop **Soup en Zo at Waterlooplein**, where he was known instead as **“Chris de Canadees” (“Chris the Canadian”).**  
**•**	He always spoke **English with what sounded like an American or Canadian accent**, and his roots are believed to be in the **US or Canada**.  
**•**	Almost the only words he can still produce are English ones like “nonsense” and “definitely.”

If you knew someone in the Amsterdam Buddhist community, the Waterlooplein area, or an American/Canadian expat who went missing or dropped out of contact around early 2023 or before, please think hard — and contact the Dutch police.

Someone out there knows him. Sharing this could reunite a whole life with its name.

Best places to buy stackable washer and dryer

I need a stackable washer and dryer for a tight laundry closet in my condo and I'm considering the LG WashTower. For those in Canada, how was your experience been with it? Would you recommend it, or is there another model you'd suggest for a condo space? Also, where did you buy yours?

Recommendations for installing screen door for balcony

Hello, I am going to be getting a new cat in November and I want to make my balcony safe. I want to get a screen door for the balcony so he can’t just go out there unsupervised.

Any recommendations for where to get a screen that is easy to install and is secure?

BBQ in the Park!

Looks like a good day for a picnic so I'm going to load up my dolly with supplies and trundle on over to the park for some burgers. Already called friends, have a bottle of wine and a reefer and a stack of Costco patties. I encourage everyone who is able to to do the same before the weather craps out for the year.

Just remember, if you're going to be drinking, pick a park with potties! :D Yay having Tuesday off!

Facing temporary homelessness

I’m looking for a place to stay for around a month until my first paycheck comes in from my new job. I have called around shelters but there’s no space for us anywhere. It’s myself and a 4 year old girl. I’m 5 months pregnant. I’m willing to go to nearby cities if we can get there on transit.

Building Out a D&D group

Alright, I'm out here trying to recruit you to the nerdiness that is D&D, but hear me out.

A bit about me: I recently turned 40 and have been dabbling in this hobby for about 10 years, although I'm not the type d&d stereotype. If you saw me on the street you might peg me as a jock, but please don't peg me. I'm looking for people who are into the game, even if you're new to it. That's totally fine.

What matters most to me is good storytelling and a bit of that "yes, and" roleplay improv energy. D&D's a lot more fun when everyone's there to laugh and have a good time, rather than getting lost in the dice math.

For a sense of the kind of stories I'm drawn to, think Dungeon Crawler Carl, Castlevania, Bloodborne. So somewhere between dark and heroic, and the silly D&D shennanigans. If you've played before, you know nobody stays fully serious for long.

As for the practical details, i'm looking to play mostly online, on weeknights, with room for the occasional in-person meetup if folks are local and down for it.

I've already got two people locked in and I'm looking to round out the group with a few more. If this sounds like your table, drop a comment or DM and let's chat.

Here's a little image teaser for something i've prepped before.... ah nevermind, i can't include images. Oh well. >.< ... I can share stuff if you message

Longshot: does anyone have a spare Surface 2 laptop charger?

I’m a poor poor student, who seems to have misplaced my laptop charger. Ransacking the house, and of course its while I’m doing job applications I can’t find the charger. 🫠

If anyone has a spare one they’re looking/willing to let go, I’ll come to you - anywhere in Van/lower mainland (I can drive, share a family car.)

I can offer seeds, some light gardening help, small tasks like this.

Thanks so much Nice Van!

Edit: found my charger (and my wallet, lol!)

Will delete in a couple days!
