lpoutine,

Victoria Watcher has just posted a new topic entitled "Buzzfeed" in forum "Online Media".

There was a time not too long ago when BuzzFeed was the hottest name in publishing. They played as large of a part as any outlet in upending the traditional news media model and in 2015 BuzzFeed was seeing 200 million monthly readers to its website including one day in February 2015 that saw 28 million visitors and a record 673,000 concurrent readers on the site.
Then everything crashed. In January 2026, BuzzFeed (https://brobible.com/tag/buzzfeed/) saw 33.21 million visits according to SemRush. This week, BuzzFeed CEO Jonah Peretti announced the quarterly earnings and those following closely believe this signaled the end is near. BuzzFeed CEO Announces 'Substantial Doubt' The Company Can ContinueIn the 2010s it felt like you could not spend more than 10 minutes online without coming across something BuzzFeed-related. People were constantly sharing the quizzes and listicles. BF's original videos were killing it across all platforms.

Victoria Watcher posted topic Victoria Folk Music Festival

lpoutine,

Victoria Watcher has just posted a new topic entitled "Victoria Folk Music Festival" in forum "Arts, Culture and Entertainment".

----------------------------------------------------------------------
The Victoria Folk Music Festival, one of the surprise successes from last year's crop of summer music festivals, has unveiled the lineup for its second edition, with Chantal Kreviazuk, the Sadies and Valdy among the headliners.

The Deep Dark Woods, Barney Bentall, Shari Ulrich, Daniel Wesley, and the Unfaithful Servants are also among the acts scheduled to appear at the one-day event, which returns to Royal Athletic Park on July 4, 2026. Two stages of entertainment, a vintage market, and a kids zone are among the offerings. The inaugural edition of the Victoria Folk Music Festival was a big hit in 2025 and reached capacity a full week before the event. Organizers are expecting a similar response this summer and are encouraging patrons to purchase tickets well in advance.

Restrict builders, watch prices go higher

Ya gotta love the NDP. They are finally showing some fiscal discipline.

Tucked away in the new provincial budget — the one with the $13 billion deficit — is a provision to remove the provincial sales tax exemption for wool.

They are finally going after those greedy grannies darning socks or knitting mittens for their grandchildren.

Meanwhile, in the same budget, they have paused construction on new long-term care bed facilities around the province. Well, that is actually a good thing, despite the backlog and growing need.

A spokesman for the office of the B.C. seniors advocate was on the radio, telling us that the projected cost for some of these facilities was approaching $2 million per bed. That is not a typo.

That's the projected cost for essentially a modest room with a bathroom. No one has to be a construction expert to know that is a ridiculous figure.

I guess that's what happens when you restrict the building of public infrastructure projects to the 15 per cent of the provincial construction workforce that is unionized.

We desperately need a new government in this province that actually has private sector management experience.
