If you want to understand more about how white privilege works, especially in Victoria, BC, Canada - try suggesting developing a data centre in middle of Oak Bay - the richest, the whitest, the most privileged population in this city.
I'll bet my life, Mom's life, both my brother's lives - it would not go through, after only one council meeting, because super rich elites would not want that in their backyards. They're OK having it in our lesser privileged backyards though.That's the same municipality that refused to build or convert unused old buildings into more affordable housing. They're completely against any type of social housing or supportive housing for our most marginalized citizens too.

Last year we had a bad keel & had to replace the co-op boat. This year, the rudder on the replacement (50-year-old) boat is full of water & isn't safe. ⛵️💸
Drowning my sorrows with black forest cake.

Hey, so, anyone know a cheap place to get a Catalina 27 rudder in the pacific NW? Or a fast and cheap place to get it rebuilt (or built from scratch, if that's a thing)?
Blackline can rebuild it, but it'll take a month.

A very big bin full of oregano flower & seed heads. I'm tapping them indoors, on a tarp. Collecting the seeds to pack up. Saving some for us to sow. Donating thousands to local seed libraries 💚✌️👩🌾

We've added two wooden/wicker chairs by lower raised garden beds & near our berries grow zone. A lovely spot to take a rest break.
