I just got a reminder that summer camp registration starts this week?!

Remembered to change out of my My Little Pony sweatshirt before the big meeting, like a professional.

I did my RRSP contribution like an adult this year (I did not cry).

It’s happening!

Holy fuck we’re actually getting a school this year. THIS MONTH. I just started crying.

I’m putting an awful lot of energy into convincing myself I don’t want Doritos.

For no evident reason, today has felt Very Hard and I'm having a difficult time not just crawling under my desk.

My kid turns 12 in a couple of weeks and I am at a complete loss, gift wise.

Good work, child witches.

What do your kids do to invoke a snow day? I’m hearing plans for backwards jammies and spoons under pillows.

I’m already thinking about the sandwich(es) I’m going to eat tomorrow.

Reading books, shopping for books and lending books are three separate hobbies.

My brain will only accept the ~gentlest~ of entertainments. Please tell me your favourite comfort watches, so I don’t just rewatch Parks & Rec or Schitt’s Creek again.

Weekend plans made.

It is still so dark out.

I told my husband to let his soft animal body love what it loves, and the series of facial expressions he cycled through will sustain me through these dark times.

I finished this late last night in a bit of a fugue state. Initially I was planning to add it to the back of a jean jacket, but the end result is larger than I anticipated. Maybe a cushion cover?

Many of you were lucky enough to know @susano.bsky.social, and I'm so sorry to share that she passed away last week after a short but aggressive illness. Those who love her are shocked and heartbroken. Hug your friends. Tell them you love them. tjtracey.com/tribute/deta...

Hug your friends. Tell them you love them. Like all the time.

I would love to say that the best thing I read in 2025 was something gorgeous and meaningful like Martyr! or Wild Dark Shore*, but if I’m being absolutely honest my favourite read of the year was the absolutely bonkers Dungeon Crawler Carl. * I did absolutely love these gorgeous books.

God cancer is a whole bag of dicks.

I would like to see your Christmas books, please

Family Christmas book stack

Went on a tour of fabulous Christmas lights, only to get home and find that half of ours are burnt out :/

I worked at a KMart as a teen in the 90s. I do not miss it.

Ugh the next three 7A busses are in 26, 27 and 33 minutes. What is happening?! #clusterbus

I have frozen the squash that I roasted for soup and which you are probably glad to miss Forgive me I want breakfast for dinner instead

The Raccoons is on Crave and my kid is getting a CanCon education.

Happy cozy & festive day off to me.

The port has existed in its current form since the 1970's. The Peninsula had its peak population in 1956. If congestion and movement of people and goods are being impacted today, the only cause is the number of cars on the road. the only solution is to reduce the count.

I'm not religious but damn do I love a christian carol. "O Holy Night"? It is if someone's singing that song. "Fall on your knees" ??!! Already down here, buddy. You've knocked me out

The fundraising auction for the Halifax Community Fridge has some great stuff. Make a few bids and help feed our nieghbours! www.32auctions.com/hfxcommunity...

The Hydrostone tree lighting is such a lovely event, but my toes are still thawing.

Help I was kind to a stranger and now they won’t stop being pleasant at me.

Stalking my library holds because I am SO CLOSE to getting the next Dungeon Crawler Carl AND the new Travis Baldree AND the new Uzma Jalaluddin holiday romcom. Read faster, Halifax.

Hi book pals! Looking for recommendations for a fantasy series (great world building, excellent writing a must). This is what husband has asked for for Christmas. I have a few options, but would love to hear from readers. 💙📚

This is actually quite brilliant, up to and including the final sentence 🔥

I am watching the lady at the next table eating a hamburger with a knife and fork. I will not apologize for staring, I am fascinated.

Two people almost got hit at separate young & robie crosswalks this morning (one was me).

The HBC, ending as it began: putting profit before this land and its people. What a history lesson for all of us.

I have been informed that December is NEXT WEEK. I am assuming this is an error or an outright lie, and I refuse to look at a calendar to confirm.

So the Spryfield Bowlarama is an entirely different beast from the Bayer’s Road Bowlarama, in case you were wondering.

Spent some time doing this yesterday. If you don't want your emails used to teach Google's AI, I suggest turning off "smart features" and then trying this.

Started rewatch of VEEP and gosh darn it’s so good.

Me: Wow, work is so quiet today! I can actually focus on something! Also Me: forgot to reopen Outlook and Teams after a forced reboot

Feeling delightfully pretentious with my beautiful coffee & my poetry book.

I have once again eaten far too many mashed potatoes.
