I’m glad I’m not the only one.

“All of us have a choice when we get up: we can use our energy for good, or we can use our energy for bad. And your job, your purpose in life, is joy. It just is. That’s what you’re here for. Your purpose is joy, but it’s to also add joy to the world.” - JH A great piece by @sproudfoot.bsky.social.

I got a walnut watch box for my birthday! I love the look of it. And now I can actually see them all at once. I also realized that I have 6 batteries to change and a new strap to buy.

Seems like we could solve a lot of the world’s problems if we just dropped 30 or so specific dudes into a volcano.

Name a song with girl in the title but replace girl with squirrel: Squirrel, You’ll be a Woman Soon

slightly increase a band The Cee Gees

It’s my birthday. This song seems appropriate now. And, earnestly, Huey Lewis is awesome.

Mom passed almost 9 years ago. Since I can’t wish her a Happy Mother’s Day, instead I’ll share a song she liked. She loved music from so many genres, and much of my musical taste comes from growing up with her record collection. Love you, Mom.

Today I discovered that there was an Irish pub hidden in a church basement in downtown Ottawa. It was a good discovery.

The new Banksy is genuinely very cool.

Watch out for those that duck around the corner.

The Leafs won the draft? Really?

Happy May the Falk Day to all those who celebrate.

What’s that you got there? Is that a treat? I like treats. Share treats? Share treats? SHARE THE TREATS.

A bit of history, and a lesson from @todmaffin.com.

This is a first half basketball score I’m not sure I’ve ever seen. #NBA

Well they sure as shit wouldn’t be swimming leisurely with that kind of “incentive”.

Ottawa (Orleans) is interesting linguistically. Was out for breakfast. This is how the next table over ordered: "Deux oeufs. Over easy. Avec jambon et homefries. White toast et un café black. Merci."

Sun is shining, tulips are in bloom, birds are singing... And I am awake way too early!

This skeet was three years ago today? Time flies…

My Canada / US trade negotiation prediction: Canada will get everything we want. And then some. Huge win. The US will get their booze back on our shelves. Trump will crow loudly about his huge victory. And we’ll toast it, but not with US booze. Because we’re still never buying it. #cdnpoli

Canada isn’t paying an entry fee for this circus - especially if we’re expected to run the concession stand. #cdnpoli

Doug Ford taking his plane through the Timmies drive thru to show people that he's common folk just like us was a nice touch though.

Logging in on Monday morning. Slack: Good morning. Let me open in the same spot you carefully positioned me last time. Chrome: Hi! Opening where you set me before! Teams: FUCK YOU. I WILL OPEN WHERE I PLEASE AT A RANDOM SIZE. AND I'M PUTTING THE TOP BAR OFF SCREEN SO YOU CAN'T EASILY MOVE ME.

Absolutely incredible. NASA Astronaut Reid Wiseman, who commanded Artemis II, took this footage from the far side of the Moon with his iPhone. Watch with sound on.

My car can do 21kms in just over 5 minutes. Rockets do it in seconds. But good for the “Lightning” machine I guess.

Today’s high: 26C (79F) Monday’s low: -3C (27F) Ottawa doesn’t get spring. We get random summer days with mostly winter to mostly summer days with random winter. All of this happens over two to three weeks.

Destroyed a stuffie and moved on to her own leg.

Cat’s bluff was called. Well played, @bsky.app.

The cat is daring Bluesky to say things are forbidden around here.

If the lawyers want to appeal, the court will allow it for $99 plus a small $500,000,000 convenience fee.
