I envy whoever got to see Pierre react to this news, whenever that might have happened.

How can people say they’re bored by The Pitt when I cry in the same episode someone blows hot dog chunks

I think this episode of The Pitt might be my favourite of the series so far. My boy Louie, though… 😭

Her community rallied so fast and so diligently. This is a victory to uphold and celebrate. Reminds everyone that it's worth fighting back.

Welcome back, millennial pink!

Whoa, the Canada Post building was originally a Co-op location?! So the little Co-op gas station beside it is vestigial… 😮

For #SewAndTell this week, the only bold thing l've ever made: a printed playsuit (mods: mule ear pockets, more buttons, no bust dart) that I thought would be good for bicycling. Nope! Even worse, two years later it doesn't fit any more! Oh, well. Still happy with the buttons. #garmentsewing

The inconsistency of the sidewalk conditions is reeeeally getting to me. Plus I almost got smoked by a left-turning and then a right-turning driver in quick succession today but that’s unrelated to the ice, it’s just an additional frustration that brought me closer to my breaking point this evening.

There are billionaires using their wealth to become even richer by marketing and selling literal poop to people? Omg the revolution cannot come soon enough

continue to think that if instead of "raw milk" we called it "doodoo milk" people would understand the risk proposition

Hell yeah

Breaking - Jim Pattison Developments say the sale of their warehouse for use as a proposed ICE facility will not be proceeding

Wait. Kevin O’Leary? Gross

The policy of 1) single rail networks and 2) freight getting right of way is why Canada continues to have ineffective and unused passenger rail.

Forgot to post this photo I took months ago. An unfortunate fate befell the triangle rack at the Shoppers Drug Mart near Eaux Claires transit centre. I’ve never seen this before. Good thing the shopping plaza has much nicer racks elsewhere. #yegbike

I unexpectedly found 1.5 mm knitting needles at the thrift store last week. I’m excited to use them for something but first I need to get better at tensioning such itty bitty yarn. This will take some time. 🧶

and which of course we all know is false, as the loved ones of Breonna Taylor will remind you

I’ve reset the counter like 8 times today, what is going AWN over there?!

Saw this gorgeous vintage cocoon coat at Value Village today. Crimson wool and mohair with a wide rolled collar and large floral buttons. Will be thinking about it for a long time.

tuxedo cats are my weakness 😭❤️

Just found this 11-year-old Alberta-as-worker’s-paradise joke t-shirt from the 2015 provincial election. I did not anticipate the political environment we’d be in now but this reads in a very different way now that there’s a real (but deeply delulu) effort to make AB an independent petrostate.

Gary Larson: In my cartoon I invented Cow Tools as a cautionary tale Cows: At long last, we have created the Cow Tools from classic newspaper comic Cow Tools

capitalism must fall

To my fellow local craft ppl who barely use instagram, please be advised that Reimagined Fabrics (the fabric/sewing supply store in Hazeldean) has extended their store hours 🥳

Resetting the “days since encountering Heated Rivalry content in the wild” counter back to zero lol

ah, they appear to have written Woke where they meant to write WoC - common mistake!

I’m the new owner of a Singer 191J and while this isn’t my first vintage sewing machine, it’s my first cast iron machine and I was almost literally floored by its weight when it came out of the cabinet. It’s a very healthy 31 lbs, which is around 7 lbs heavier than my road bike.

Fort Rd and 132 Ave: not loving the transition between the SUP and one-way bike paths. If you're going south via the Fort Rd SUP and you want to go west on 132 Ave you need to cross 132, press a beg button, wait, cross Fort Rd, wait more, and then cross 132 Ave again to get on the right bike path.

There’s now a second, larger box in the grass between the SUP and the street. I guess that means the first box will be removed at some point? I don’t know. In the meantime the snow clearing is going exactly as you’d expect, they’re going around the box as if the SUP swerves to one side of it.

Value Village is not pricing their books with consideration to the fact that I’ve literally never found a book there that wasn’t also available for free at EPL or the Internet Archive’s library. I will not be buying a $7.99 book that still has a $1.99 sticker from the last thrift store that sold it.

keep thinking of a vocally anti-woke reporter who insisted that the term "environmental racism" was nonsense

Ew, the 82 St bike lane is windrow storage but then again you’re not actually supposed to bicycle on 82nd, you silly goose, so it’s fine. On the plus side several north side SUPs (not pictured) are looking good. #yegbike

The University of Alberta approved a tuition increase of 75% in graduate nursing. They slashed all funding to the affiliated child care centres, leaving students faculty and staff without spots At the same time the president's hospitality expenses have increased by 290%.

Do you ever decide to sew something that will use up most of your four types of leftover black bias tape and then realize that not only do none of the four match each other in hue, you are also half a metre short in total and have to go to the store to buy more…

I’ll see you all on r/craftsnark later 🫡

…You’re telling me this isn’t a high school in a 90s/00s American coming-of-age film? 🤨

I’m not 100% sure, but I don’t think this is the winter weather I signed up for

As Alberta completes its first full year without coal in its power supply mix, renewables (wind, solar, and hydro) have reached 22% of total generation and natural gas makes up 78%.

For xmas my sister has asked for a capelet to wear at the office. It’s so nice that we openly tell each other what we want bc how would I have guessed "office cape" of all things? She likes Twig + Tale's Traveller Cape but the price is not right, so I'm mixing together parts from other patterns. 👩🏾‍🍳

You know, I don’t think any elon/grok screenshot I’ve seen on here has brought me new information about him that I really needed to know. The guy sucks in several different ways, all of which are already publicly known, no?

one shitty thing about bluesky is that people keep posting Twitter screenshots, but only of posts by the most vile people

You don’t actually have to share whatever nonsense Elon Musk is saying on any given day. You can of course but you don’t have to. The people what want to know what he is up to follow him. The rest of us don’t.

I can’t believe I didn’t start wearing a base layer under jeans in the winter until I was like 25. So much unnecessary suffering.

It's time once again for my annual #treebybike post. This is the 12/19/42 cover of @newyorker.com, so one full year after the attack on Pearl Harbor. This would be the first real Christmas alone, or without a family member, for millions in the US. Gas and tire rationing had begun earlier that year.🗃️
