Age verification? I asked my parents to buy me K-Tel Records LPs after seeing ads for them on TV.

I spent a long time trying to figure out what to do with my Harry Potter books, because just dumping them in a little free library felt wrong. So I mailed them to this artist who was turning them into portraits of murdered trans women www.thepinknews.com/2025/11/11/a...

I was going to watch the Super Bowl, but I really don't think it'll be as good as the book.

I am so psyched up for the Winter Olymel Pics.

Virginia State Senator Louise Lucas is just a delight on every level

Catching up on @stoppodcasting.bsky.social BoCo, and the Commercial Jingles ep is undamming a flood of memories. Remember when Tim Hortons was "your friend along the way"? Or when Harvey's made you "spoiled for charbroiled"? And because I'm old, shopped at Dominion "mainly because of the meat."

Time to get out of bed and have a nice hot cup of tea in the shower.

Can anyone explain to me why we can't get this #OldDutchChips flavour east of Manitoba? I get why we don't get chips in cardboard boxes, but this flavour is calling to me. #snacks

My work here is done.

Reconnecting with my Twitter mutuals

Rinse and repeat! (I'll keep trying though.)

IT'S BANDCAMP FRIDAY! What am I gonna buy? How about some @terraspencer.bsky.social because her latest Sunset has special guests the Bombadils, Ryan Cook, Matt Andersen, Stephen Fearing, Stewart Legere, Ian Sherwood & Pillow Fite. That's a lotta talent for $10. terraspencer.bandcamp.com/album/sunset

In the '80s I felt like I could never escape this song, but when @andymerrill.bsky.social does it, I don't want it to end. #BrakOrAlive www.youtube.com/watch?v=cFLm...

My new single, “Minnesota.” It’s free for all credited uses, by anyone. Do with it as you will.

Have old books? They're no longer accepted in curbside recycling under new extended producer responsibility rules. Donate them to a local charity (check first), to a community library box, or share them with friend. As a last resort, they go in the garbage. Learn more at: halifax.ca/recycling

See? Now that wasn't so hard, was it?

One of my favourite critics, @kermodemovie.bsky.social suffered for his craft so you don't have to. "I've seen A Serbian Film, I've seen Cannibal Holocaust ... I have never felt this depressed in my life in the cinema, it was absolutely repugnant." www.youtube.com/watch?v=DTyU...

Lots talking about the Washington Post, but Canadian journalism isn’t doing so hot either.

How dare museums revisit and reconsider history? Morning File by @philmoscovitch.bsky.social

I see there's a new film about a soulless bloodsucking vampire from Eastern Europe made by a creepy director playing in theatres ... and there's also a new version of Dracula from Luc Besson.

I'm a little scared of the collectible Melania popcorn bucket.

FINALLY. MORE OF THIS.

My French ancestors, the Desnoyers, came over with Maisonneuve when he founded Montreal. My Irish ancestors came over to work on the Erie Canal in the early 1800s, then the Welland Canal in Ontario. My mom's side, United Empire Loyalists, had a beef with Charles II or something.

My January movie viewing, listed on @letterboxd.social I've been watching a lot of 1930s and 1940s programmers, need to step things up in different areas a bit more. #Letterboxd #WhatIWatched

I'm guessing there'll be a professor, a captain and his clueless friend, a movie star and several millionaires ... they'll never get off that island.

Very excited to see that @joshjohnsoncomedy.bsky.social has Halifax on his upcoming round of tour destinations (no dates announced yet). He's got a sign-up form for updates on his YouTube page. #HaliSky youtube.com/post/UgkxrPR...

Y’all wanna see bots try to throw a dead body over a wall

Lead stories on the network newscasts tonight: --ABC WORLD NEWS TONIGHT: ICE protests across country, Lemon arrested --NBC NIGHTLY NEWS: Epstein files --CBS EVENING NEWS: Catherine O'Hara dies. ABC and NBC had full stories about the protests+ strike, with reporters filing from MN CBS did not

I feel like we, as a nation, are not talking enough about the fact that @cbcgem.bsky.social has posted a bunch of King of Kensington episodes in honour of its 50th anniversary. Long live the King! #KingOfKensington #AlWaxman #CanadianTV

@tropicalfuckstorm.bsky.social Rewatching your @bestshow4life.bsky.social performance and interview, amazing set and really fun chat. Big thumbs up for the Archie Roach shoutout!

I hope @thedailyshow.com producers don't confuse all the people going to that Whitney Cummings clip to leave negative comments with positive views. She is awful, and people need to vent. #TheFailyShow

Like I needed a reason to ugly cry today. #RIPCatherineOHara www.youtube.com/watch?v=QwLZ...

Ruin a movie by replacing one word in the title with "Sausage" Close Encounters of the Sausage Kind

They’ve started arresting journalists. This is the next step toward total authoritarian control of the country. The response and outrage must meet this moment.

Imagine having Bruce Springsteen AND Billy Bragg release songs about how much you fucking suck and how much the people fighting you rule you within the same 48 hours

It's a real put-something-in-the- freezer-you-meant-to-put-in-the-microwave kind of day.

This bird digs Bird! #Alfie #AfricanGrey #parrot #CharlieParker

Very pleased to learn I get a small nod in this massive new revamp of Doug Hinman's All Day & All of the Night, a chronological history of the Kinks, now expanded with the help of pop expert @andrewsandoval.bsky.social, for the inclusion of a 1970 show the band performed in Sackville, New Brunswick!

Words cannot fully express my joy at learning that @betamaxking.bsky.social has finally sourced a copy of CBC-Halifax kids' program BIXBY & ME after years (nay, decades!) of searching. Hearing that theme song for the first time since childhood is giving me goosebumps. www.youtube.com/watch?v=spfO...

stop using AI to do your research. it hallucinates too often. if you want an answer to something, post something arrogant on the appropriate subreddit. something like: "this item performs 10% better than everything else. only idiots deny this." this will bait nerds into doing your research for you.
