We’re discussing the wetness of the snow and it’s like how people in desert talk about dry heat.

I don’t want to discuss the clementine budget, but know that not one person in this household is in danger of developing scurvy. Everyone’s scars will remain closed!

Me: Time to get up, kiddo! Him: No. Me: …

I can’t explain it but the current crop of AI images look like YA Christian novels from the 90s

A wonderful and weird new short story collection from Alison Gadsby @junctionreads.bsky.social @guernicaeditions.bsky.social #newbook #bookreview

The women’s hockey team jerseys are bad ass and cool af 🇨🇦

I still have to steam it but I made this hooked rug piece.

There is a tree on the highway near my exit that creates an optical illusion against snow of a dude on a bike and as I get closer, it becomes Bigfoot. It gets me almost every time I pass it. The first time it scared me but now I’m like ah yes, Bigfoot tree

I spent an egregious amount of money on grapes today. I only bought two apples because god forbid no one likes apples tomorrow and the bag goes bad. I don’t have profound thoughts about it.

Every time the printer works and prints out exactly what I asked, I’m shocked.

I bought a very cute pearl nose ring and I might just wait to wear it in the summer when it will look less like a zit against my pale winter face

So, chin hairs. wtf.

Without naming your job, tell me something you say over and over again at work ... “Does this make sense to you?”

This week’s The Ancients is about cuneiform and it’s cool af. My favourite bit is that we measure time (60s, 60miniy s, etc) bc of how the Sumerians counted. We are each so small and connected.

Important announcement, I met a really handsome cat named Hobo today. I don’t think until this moment to take a picture but just know he was the best, biggest boy

Sometimes St. Vincent is just too much and that’s ok, there’s always Santigold

I’m sometimes annoyed by William Dalrymple but he and Anita Anand (the other one) are currently doing a series on the 1979 Iranian revolution and the current revolution and it’s very good

I sat in the drivers seat of a car for the first time since the accident and started crying. A little more sensitive than I thought

I went to the tow yard to see my poor little car and take pictures. The answer to the the insurance agent’s question about what was damaged on the front end is, “yes”. I actually said I wasn’t sure but there were multiple fluids leaking and the firefighters made me get out and stand clear.

Ok but a can of crispy Diet Coke can heal something in you

I recently read All the White Friends I Couldn't Keep by Andre Henry. Thought-provoking and a very necessary read. #bookreviews #ListenandLearn

I get to natter on about the club politics in my sim games because I listen to him explain tugboat drama

Me: I just found a chocolate bar in my coat pocket and a sock in the other one. Him: none of that is surprising

I saw a chubby woodpecker! Mood instantly 60% better. The bird, you perverts.

Mood: I was told to smile for the camera but I think I bared my teeth instead

Mood: I was told to smile for the camera but I think I bared my teeth instead

I thought I could handle a couple of days of bedrest but holy shit I’m bored

I got pissy about being stuck in bed so I made my own coffee and unloaded/loaded the dishwasher and now my foot is swelling and hurts. Lesson possibly learned (I know myself)

My ankle looks like one of those silly dogs who was stung on the snout by a bee, but less cute

Happy St Brigid’s Day to all the fierce and joyous people on here. Especially her favourite type of people - midwives, newborn babies, dairy workers, brewers, poets, scholars, blacksmiths, and travelers. Brigid sees you when you care for the earth and help those with less than you.

Nova Scotia elected our Panama paper politician as premier.

I read an entire book while I was in the er lmao (it was excellent and weird)

If anyone would like an update on my terrible day, the bright spot is that my ankle is not broken! It is sprained and hurts like mfer tho

If everyone and their dog on the south shore could stop having strokes and heart attacks for a hot minute so I could see the doctor, that would be great

Becoming suspicious the nurses tell everyone they’re next and it won’t be long. I’m afraid to ask my sister (nurse) in case she says yes

It’s not that I hope my ankle is broken but we’ve been waiting almost six hours and I’m going to be pissed if it’s just sprained after all this time. I may be getting hangry because they won’t let me (possible sedation)

Not enough people are wearing masks in the er. So far it is the triage nurse and me.

I’ve been doing ig girlie manifestations but I’ve been asked to stop because it would seem I’ve been welcoming and open to an abundance of bad luck

Catherine O’Hara?!? What a terrible fucking day.

There goes my clean driving discount on insurance

I lost my Tim Hortons special olympics donut in the accident :(

To the person cursing me, please stop. I’ll even help you find a new nemesis.

The bad news is that I smashed my Prada prescription sunglasses. The other bad news is that I also smashed the hell out of my car. The good news is that no one was hurt. I mean my ankle hurts like a mfer but technically fine

Does anyone want to hear my dad’s Russian royal family joke? What do you call the children of the Tsar and Tsarina? … Tsardines!

I want to post on LinkedIn for work finding reasons bu I don’t want to make myself cringe. Also I don’t think anyone should be following me as a thought leader. I think stupid shit and for no good reason have the Sanford and Son theme song going

There is horror that scares. Or it unsettles you. And then there is horror that does both and it is so well written that the fear crawls up your legs and won't let go. Obv I really enjoyed @annieneugebauer.bsky.social new collection, published by @badhandbooks.bsky.social #bookreview #horror

I’ve mentioned my mom’s barn cats. They’re feral cats who live in the old garage. Usually barn cats live on mice and other vermin. Real working cats. Not these beauties, who were up and waiting for breakfast this morning.

It’s that time of day when I look at available writing jobs etc and think, ah yes. I know absolutely nothing, good times

Him: there’s something bumping in there Me: Maybe it’s the club. Him: What? Me: …

I never thought it would happen but I have Diet Coke opinions. Gotta say, maybe it’s the mediocre McDonald’s near me (exit 5, IFKYKY), but fountain is the worst.
