This afternoon's run was windy. I had to downshift a bit just to not tired myself out during the 1st half. Once I got on the 10km home stretch, the forest blocked most of the wind, so much better. At one point, got passed by a really fast cyclist like I wasn't even moving. #cycling

Tried something a bit different for this afternoon's run. With the trails now dry, I tried a few of the side trails. They are ok, with the exception of tree roots. It's a lot of hopping & zig-zagging that tires out the knees a bit. Met up with 1 runner, waved hello. #running

This evening's bike ride started after 7PM as it was still 30°. After my break, I felt something not quite right & stopped on top of hill #3 for minor equipment adjustments. Then, I got caught in a small shower, but raced through it, so did not get wet. #cycling

Back to my shorter local bike ride for this afternoon. I was slightly under dressed, so felt just a little bit cool due to the northeast wind. Ride itself was good. #cycling

This afternoon's run ended up being shorter than planned. It's one of those days where you just don't have that oomph. Temperatures were only 20°, but the strong sun made it feel hotter. That might be what got me. Met up with 1 runners, waved hello. #running

This afternoon's bike ride was from my house to my friend's house via a long detour that totalled 40km. There was a western wind again, but I had paced myself better, so felt less tired this time. Met up with 1 cyclist, waved hello. #cycling

This afternoon's run was a 40km loop from Dieppe to Memramcook and back to Dieppe. Temps were perfect, except for strong 35km/h westerly wind. I was tired at the end, but I'm still satisfied having done this circuit. Met up with 3 cyclists, waved hello. #cycling

Akira Kurosawa's Dreams 夢. A 1990 anthology film. Like all films of this type, it has its ups & downs. Some segments are not so good, others are better. The 1st segment feels like the start of a good film that ends after the prologue. #filmsky #kurosawa

This evening's run was a bit cool. I was dressed fro summer, but it was only 12°. I could have used at least a long sleeve shirt. The nice part was that, since it was cool, a few animals were out & about. I saw 2 hares (took photos of 1) and a woodpecker. #running

This afternoon's bike ride was good. I'm continuing to do my 24km ride & hope to get ready for longer rides soon. Still climbing hill #3 on 2nd gear. Should take me a few more weeks until I can jump on 3rd gear. Met up with 1 cyclist, waved hello. #cycling

From an advertisers point of view, this is also dumb. If I choose ro advertise on your network, I expect eyeballs will be watching my ad. If your decision reduces the number of viewers, your network is now worth less than before. I will take my ad elsewhere & since my ROI is much less assured.

Starting to enjoy my bike again. Still only doing 24km runs for now until the weather warms up. Met up with a couple of guys pushing behind a carriage led by a horse; the hill is too steep for the horse to do that work on its own. Remarked that it was a nice day. #cycling

This afternoon's run was at mapleton Park. I had not been there in a while. Some areas have small rolling hills, so different muscles get a workout. Met up with 1 runner, waved hello. #running

Got my bike back from the shop after a punctured tire require replacing. Ride went well. But, I think the crankset may be on its last year. Whenever I need force to climb a small rolling hill, it will skip on hard gear. Rest of the time, all normal. Forgot phone, so no photo. #cycling

With the sequel out in theatres this weekend, I thought I would watch the 1st Mortal Kombat from 2021. It's not terrible, but for a B or C level movie, it's could have been much worse. Josh Lawson steals the film as Kano. He's the only real good performance, all others are a bit too wooden.

A good run this afternoon. Again, have to watch out for the black flies (that will be ongoing for the next few weeks). Temps were mid teens, so perfect for running. Meet up with 5 cyclists & 1 runner, waved hello. #running

The Amazing Spider-Man Omnibus volume 5. This wraps up Gerry Conway's run with the surprisingly short clone saga, has a one issue Archie Goodwin issue, then Len Wein takes over with a good enough Green Goblin story. Overall, it's pretty good, especially as Ross Andru is the main artist. #comicsky

Forgot to post about yesterday evening's run. Temps were in mid teens. Unfortunately, black flies are starting to show up. Running keeps them away, but cannot stay stopped for long. #running

From my comics collection, Fantastic Four 334, 335, 336 by Walter Simonson, Rick Buckler, Romeo Tanghal, Ron Lim & Mike DeCarlo. Part of Acts of Vengeance the FF face a bunch of villains. They also appear in a gov hearing to testify against the super hero registration act. Fight the gov!! #comics

It was very windy for today's run. It's been so windy these past 2 days that trees have fallen here & there in the park. One tree was breaking as I went past, thankfully not on the trail. Met up with 2 cyclists & 1 runner. Waved hello. #running

From my comics collection, the 1999 5 part mini series Day of Judgment. By this point, the Spectre is becoming a problem for DC. He's too powerful & cannot be ignored during "big" storylines. This is DC's attempt to restrain him, but not sure if it worked. #comics

Listening to the latest Anime World Order podcast when @geraldawo.bsky.social said that "Sony has done a fantastic job of running Crunchyroll..." Then, he paused for half a second & my blood pressure started rising. He then added "into the ground". Blood pressure went back down. 😁

This evening's run was in an indoor track. With rain falling throughout the day, I decided to run indoors for about 1 hour. I had to laugh at my fitness app. I was running at an oval 200 metres track, but the GPS was really confused. Look at the screenshot below after just 8 circuits. #running

My first medium ride of the year. 46 km from my house to my father's house. The ride itself went well, but there are stretches where the bike lane is not so good. Looking forward to more rides little this. #cycling

Howl's Moving Castle ハウルの動く城. This is the start of Miyazaki's decline. Oh, it's not a bad film, but it's also not a good film. It's biggest issue is that it's unfocused. On this rewatch, I kept wondering: where are we going with all this? #anime #ghibli

I kept checking the weather all day for today's run. It rained for most of it until about 6PM. I had a 2 hour window until sunset & I took advantage of it. The trails were wet, but still hard. At one point, saw a hawk holding a fish in its talons. I rushed to take a photo, so not that good. #running

This afternoon's ride was similar to yesterday's ride. Before leaving, inflated tires, cleaned up & lubed up chain. There was a southeast wind, temps about 14°, lots of traffic. I'm still getting used to the clip on pedals. #cycling

This evening's bike ride was cooler than the past few days. The temperature was only 13°, cloudy with a southeast wind. That got a wind against me for the 2nd half, so I was going a bit slower than usual. Glad I got that ride in, it's raining now. #cycling

Adventure Time Season 6. In many ways, this was a lot better than previous season with only a few minor nitpicks. A lot of episodes build up for the season finale & do it well. The only nitpick is Finn's father, a opportunistic con artists who excels & failing upwards.

A good run this afternoon. We are having great spring weather & it is great to dress lightly for a run. Met up with 2 runners & 3 cyclists: waved hello. #running

RIP Gerry Conway. I had recently finished reading his run on Amazing Spider-Man. He was able to take the title that had gotten stale & reignited the spark that made it great again. Thank you for all the great stories!

Did another bike run this afternoon. The north wind was a bit stronger, so things felt a bit cooler. I was being followed at one point during a 1km uphill climb. We both commented that it's a tiring, but still rewarding hill. Forgot phone, no photo. #cycling

From my comics collection,The Mighty Thor Godstorm limited series from 2001 by @kurtbusiek.bsky.social, @steverudethedude.bsky.social & Mike Royer. A series of tales set earlier in Thor's life, it has a very 60's feel, from the writing to the art kind of evoking Kirby. I liked this one a lot #comics

First bike ride of the year & first with clip on pedals. It was a good ride. Did not fall when I stopped (everyone tells me this will eventually happen). Was dressed for wind chill. Warm when stopped, perfect when moving at speed. Climb hill #3 on ultra light gear. #cycling

Still in that cold spell, so still dressing up with long sleeve shirt while running. Good news: trails are still dry. Even better news: temps going up a bit tomorrow. Met up with 1 runner, waved hello. #running

You seriously have to wonder: how many of them were hoping that he would never wake up?

From my comics collection, Avengers 355 & 356 by Bob Harras, Steve Epting & Tom Palmer. The Gatherers storyline is starting to get more developped with a lot of subplots being hinted at. #comics

Don't quite know what happened today, but I had legs to run. I somehow pushed myself & did my circuit about 5 minutes faster than normal. Some days, everything just clicks. Met up with 3 cyclists & 2 runners, waved hello. #running

Just picked this up from @thecomichunter.bsky.social . The Spider-Man Superman #1. Like the other special last month, this is going to be fun to read. #comics #superman #spiderman

From my comics collection, Wolverine 75 by Larry Hama, Adam Kubert, Mark Farmer, Dan Green & Mark Pennington. Following on from X-Men 25, the team races home as Wolverine's life hangs in the balance. Then, a shocking, but logical discovery about his claws. #comics

I'm a guy, but i cannot stop laughing at this.

A good run this afternoon. As expected, temperatures have dropped and were only 6° with a cool northern breeze. I was dressed well for it. I had to laugh at the end. My running app registered a distance of 7.95 km. I suppose I could have run around the extra 50 metres to get to 8km. #running

With some activities keeping me busy during the day, I went for a shorter run this evening. Temperatures were 17°, perfect. Bad side: temps going down under 10° for the rest of the week. 😥 Met up with 1 cyclist, waved hello. #running

Look at what popped up on my amazon home page. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha. Maybe if they give me free Prime & all amazon prime video unlocked for 10 years, I might, might, be willing to watch this drek. #amazon #melania

Frieren: Beyond Journey's End 葬送のフリーレン. I missed season 1 back when it aired in 2023. I wish I had caught it then. This series is surprisingly good. The series does a good job presenting the story from Frieren's unique point of view. #anime

This afternoon's run is one of these times I'm glad I run in a forested park. The northern breeze was cold, but was blocked by the park. With the strong sun, it felt like a perfect spring day. Met with 3 runners & 2 cyclists, waved hello. #running

The aurora that I saw at around 1AM my time.

He's going to install a U.S. based anti-pope before end of summer.

I ended up dressing a bit too heavily for this afternoon's run, but it still turned out well. I felt like I had good legs the whole time. I saw a lot of deer tracks, but they were in gravel, so hard to make out in the photo. Got passed by 2 runners, waved hello. #running

Glad I checked today's weather before leaving for work this morning. That way, I was dressed lightly for today's run after work. Temperatures were perfect. Aside from a few spots, all trails were good. #running
