i feel like i buy the same bass or guitar cabinet over and over again each time i move provinces

i don't want it to be getting dark already

Halifax, I don't know if you get Environment Canada alerts but if you have trouble breathing today is not your day. Today winds are coming from the west, which blows the Annapolis Valley wildfire smoke directly at us. The wind will shift direction tonight and blow the smoke south-west.

Today I learned my 84 yo mom is aware of the existence of both Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne

my entire IG feed is Ozzy tributes and it's incredibly moving. i keep tearing up!

Ozzy Osbourne visited my magic shop. He said he'd like to buy some stink bombs. How many? All of them. I had to go through drawers finding every last one. He bought 900 of them. To sign the credit card slip I handed him a shock pen, which he thought was hilarious and bought that too. RIP

With all sincerity, Elections Canada is a national treasure. - Voting typically takes less than 15 minutes - We make it easy for citizens to vote, without cumbersome registration hurdles - We have every reason to trust that ballots will be counted fairly, and results reported swiftly

slowly recovering from a move across town that took over the last two months of our lives. sore body. sandpaper hands. empty brain. new place is gonna be good though

Even accepting the premise that AI produces useful writing (which no one should), using AI in education is like using a forklift at the gym. The weights do not actually need to be moved from place to place. That is not the work. The work is what happens within you.

Pleased to report that it is possible to access the drive-through immunization clinic at Dartmouth General on a bicycle. 💉🚲 Slightly baffled that that was the closest place I could book a COVID shot this time around, given that I live in downtown Halifax, near any number of pharmacies. 🤷🏼

Hi! I just sent out the first batch of "Cat Constellation Chart" prints, so I thought I'd share this little bb again, feat. nine cat characters from the #ALittleToTheLeft Seeing Stars DLC. Limited edition of 100, grab em while you can! #letterpress #cats #catart #spacecats #videogameart

I made a novel! Can’t wait for you to meet these punks. Coming spring 2026 from @houseofanansi.bsky.social

I get so snacky when I’m writing

If it’s dreary where you are, like it is where I am, try putting on some morning jazz 👩‍🎨

I'm loving all of the David Lynch quotes, clips, posts. Feeling warmed by them, and inspired by them.

I’m spending my morning fighting with a roomba named Gracie at my in-laws

The workers wanted to do rotating strikes so that holiday mail would just be slowed down. Management locked them out, hoping that the public would blame the workers. Management also appears to be lying to the media about what the main disagreements are. Never trust management in labour disputes.

Would like to wear my slayer xmas sweater to a holiday party because it’s just a hell of a sweater, but I don’t have a night of rock talk in me

A lot of things suck in this lifetime, but I remember when the thought of this was incomprehensible. This is beautiful.

An I-can’t-wait-to-go-to-bed kinda day

It's my fifth year of not working in an office and I still really miss the holiday potluck

Small plates are for lunch, big plates are for dinner. It’s the rule

Evenly distributing chapsticks and n95s throughout the pockets of my winter jackets

Good morning, budgie is short for budgerigar, no joke

I bought a heated blanket that didn't seem to do much when I first turned it on but now it's been on for an hour and I feel like I won't need to turn on the furnace this winter

I planned to write before work but have instead been mesmerized by an enormous barred owl in a tree in my yard. I love him

Remembering the tour where I thought it'd be a good idea to use a hardshell vintage suitcase for my clothes. Way too heavy, duh. Our tourmates (The Weakerthans) had sensible camping backpacks

New Marnie Stern 😍 Happy to know she's still weird

I'm going to broadcast this once again because new people are here now. I have a shared and self curated mute list to filter out A.I. / NFT / Crypto accounts for those who want an improved bsky experience. I investigate them all personally, but if you find someone I missed, you can reply or @ me.

I'm getting into puzzles
