Ahhhh!! Omgomgomg!!! M/m secret enemies to lovers hockey romance ON TV 🥲😍 The books were so good, I can't believe this is happening! In my country! Makes my little yuri on ice heart happy..

So proud of our girls 🫶 #kpopdemonhunters

At the end of the day, don’t we all just want to read books in a cottage during a pouring rain in front of a crackling fire whilst enjoying a plate of emotional support cinnamon rolls?

Pauline Johnson was one of Canada's most beloved poets. Her poems focused on her duel English-Mohawk heritage, which were reflected in her stage shows. Celebrated for her work, she remains an important literary figure in our history. This is her story. 🧵 1/12

My daughter is on a junket to New York with her online peeps. She sent me this poster from the Ripped Bodice:

venting: my masters historiography class is infuriating. We're not supposed to critique the papers of the old dead white dudes we read for discussion. Just reiterate and accept. So we show we understand their theory/approach but no more. It makes me want to poke myself in the eye.

we’re back here again ❤️ haha

Small 🍁 biz here: tariffs + no deminimus has been a disaster. 1)ship thru canada post, you must use the zonos app as a broker, nothing falls under CUSMA, the biz gets charged the 35% tariff plus processing etc (we just got crushed by this) but the US buyer gets no bill at the door. 1/2

As others, including Ireland, rush to help their citizens involved with the flotilla, here’s what Canada’s government told me of the six Canadians on board: “The Government of Canada is not able to guarantee the safety of Canadian travelers, or to provide them with security and protection abroad.”

how i curse my enemies-

Your great grandmas family recipe is probably a 1932 Betty Crocker recipe.

I love when someone makes a bad take and the reylos come together, linking tails and becoming the rat king we've always been once more

ANYWAY I’m gonna spend the rest of the night leaving nice comments on fics possibly written by soon-to-be published authors 💕

i just think that all the fic-to-trad publishing girlies & enbies should get that bag. Soak'em babes. You are incredible authors & deserve to pay your rent with your creative work if you can.

neurodivergent people are the top-notch weirdos, & the world is better bc they're in it 💕

I worry for all the women who will be confused by this, and either refuse needed meds or seek (untested/dangerous) 'alternative' treatments bc of it. Everything is gender and I hate it.

Here's my message to MAGA ambassador Pete Hoekstra. He gaslights our nation, blames Canadians for being mean to the US. He accuses of us being anti-American. He says we are mean and nasty and doesn't like us saying Elbows Up. Too bad Pete. We are proud anti-fascists www.youtube.com/watch?v=88Jh...

If you memorize a poem you will have it with you in an emergency. You could add that to your list.

yikes on bikes "once you use chatgpt, you don't want to think for yourself anymore" she said.

Peak fic-reading set-up.

Welp. Time to reset the “Days since Canadian government gave a standing ovation to a Nazi” counter back to zero, I guess.

WTF, why are you giving a standing O to a far-right wing US podcaster?!!?? Stuff he spewed would fall under hate speech in Canada. When we had a dude that posted a Transphobic sign in town, we shut that mf'er down bc we don't allow that garbage filth in Canada. Email/call your MP, the PM etc.

My chp for class today was 'The killing of cats; the past is a foreign country' and I'd like to say a lot of things- but everything IS gender and i hate it.

I have always loved the ✨️cabinet of curiousities✨️ idea- I think I'll have to put this on my project list 🪶

the people yearn for forums

Grad school is a LOT. I think my whole cohort (6 of us!) were rethinking our life choices after our first class. I'm going have to cut waaay back on my community committements for the next while :(

✨️Timeline cleanse✨️ My teen & I did a needle-felting workshop, it was tops.

Laura Secord became a hero of the War of 1812 when she warned the British of an American attack. But it took decades for her to receive recognition for her actions. This is the story of one of Canada's most famous historical figures. 🧵 1/12

maybe the real star wars was all the communist bitches we made along the way 🔵.𖥔 ݁˖✶⋆.˚☭🔴

It is the assimilation machine that strips things of their context. A.I. is digital colonialism. Fuckin EW.

I feel like this is in the same realm as the netflix Persuasion. It's Wuthering Heights shaped, & will benefit from name recognition, but we'll all be going 'who are these people & what is going on?' I love films/tv inspired by stuff, but stop being a coward and make it an original work already!

It's 2025 and there are still men confidently saying women have no place writing in the stars wars universe and point to A. C. Crispin's Han Solo trilogy as the pinnacle of star wars literature and say "see how good this is??? A woman could never write something as good as the Han Solo Trilogy."

sam altman is trying to find the guy who did this

No film gets historians right, but that's only because no audience wants to watch someone quietly work their way through a cardboard box of old papers, in total silence, for eight straight hours.

reading the new emily rath, Pucking Strong; Fake Marriage/Marriage of Convenience is truly the best of tropes. Scam those gov'ts, babes & catch those feelings. More of this pls 💯

Don't let the teens read Auel, they might get interested in flint-knapping & major in archaeology!

Obvs this is THE WORST & we should chuck the people who want to ban these books (esp. from high schools!? Atwood, Laurence? wtf) into the flaming sun.. but if you're a teen & have the reading level to get through every Auel, Gabaldon, ACOTAR etc. jfc let the teen girls have their little stories 1/2

Maybe they will learn something from this…. Nahhhhhh

I want a stuffy of Derpy so much- & I'm not a collectible kinda person, but look at him! Looook aaattt him 😍

I just listened to TLH on audiobook to refresh my memory, & gosh darn it- I lowkey can't wait for this movie to come out (& be wildly successful- Ali get that bag girl) I love that the reylos keep winning 😭

jfc, i weep. yep def those pesky fic writers causing the fascism and not these n*zis purging the 'degenerate' art & revising history.

all I'm saying is that we should've never stopped putting those spicy (smutty?) covers on harlequinns at the grocery store checkout. Granny used to buy them with 0 shame while getting milk. Nobody cared.

Good GODDDD fanfiction is a space dominated by every idenitity other than straight men because they aren’t finding representation in the mainstream. You fucking morons. All your dressed up censorship is doing is carrying water for the fucking fascists.

TAPPING THE SIGN rewritingripley.medium.com/in-plain-sig...

me writing yuri on ice soulmate fic: so your magic tattoo soulmarks brought you together- now KISS! me also: huh guess I'm responsible for the fascism 🤷‍♀️

Libraries, silently being awesome since forever.

Just sharing the “Xtreme endnotes” assignment @parisnoire.bsky.social mentions here in case anyone else finds it helpful as we begin a new academic year. FWIW, it’s a purely analog exercise in an AI-freaky world & my students have never not had fun doing it.✌🏽 www.historians.org/perspectives...
