Me, out in the shed August 31 vs me out in the shed September 1

I'm seeing one minor problem with the Nordspace launch that they might want to fix...

Did Trump just announce new tariffs on Canada with Triple H? Is he going to Pedigree the economy? Next week maybe he'll announce military funding with Rambo.

You know it's serious when an NL story beats those Coldplay kiss cam cheaters.

Musgrave Harbour has been evacuated and the fire that was 8 km away last night is now 1 km away. We're providing updates here: www.cbc.ca/1.7589514 Any comments or questions shoot them my way and stay safe out there. #nlwx #nltraffic #nlwildfire

Hosting CBC's On the Go in 15 minutes! It's the thrifting episode! We've got second hand clothes at MUN's new thrift shop, second hand vacations in our tech column, and a second hand show, as I got this episode cheap from Krissy Holmes.

Me: Goes to see #Superman on Joe Shuster's birthday. @jamesgunn.bsky.social and the unbelievable cast of this movie:

Roses are red a toque is a hat

We decided to head down to St. Vincent's, and as it was chilly brought some blankets for ourselves (and the dog), and then suddenly

Canada is back.

Derby is back! I'm back in the announcer hat this Saturday. Get ready to jam!

The Japanese call our galaxy Amanogawa, or "the heavenly river" and we're over here stuck with Milky Way like a bunch of suckers.

I guess go Leafs? Brought to you courtesy me in 1991.

Me when I'm waiting in the booth to read the news and Heather drops Rattlin' Bog on Weekend AM....

I was honoured to be one of the judges for this year's @dougwrightawards.bsky.social for best kids' book! A frankly shocking number of incredible comics for young readers published across Canada this year, and it was not easy narrowing it down to these five, but each of them is an amazing read.

It's not too late to check out my latest comic "Effie is Thirsty" in the spring issue of Newfoundland Quarterly I am already updating Effie's CV and bio accordingly:

A little late for #SupermanDay but I've restarted my classic Adventures of Superman rewatch account, previously on twitter. If you're a fan of the character but haven't seen him in his most formative years during this bizarre, low-budget, awesome series, check it out!

What’s your unpopular Star Trek opinion? There is no Star Trek universe and there shouldn't be. Trek is unique in that it is "our" future - the future of the people telling the story. That should move ahead with the times it's told in, rather than get trapped in fictional world building.

It's Superman day, the anniversary of Action Comics #1. In times when the world gets heavy I can almost hear his voice, maybe Chris Reeve, maybe George Reeves even, telling us through gritted teeth, but always with a smile: "What part of "neverending battle" did you not understand?"

8 cartoonists 8 St. John's neighbourhoods One book telling our city's story like never before. Kickstarter launching soon. Check it out! www.instagram.com/reel/DIg76I5...

I've been hosting The Signal on CBC NL this week, and you can catch up on some of our conversations on YouTube! Today we talked to organizers and entrepreneurs in the NL Muslim community about Ramadan and building community. Check us out! www.youtube.com/watch?v=Arlh...

I am thrilled to announce that I'm am contributing to what is maybe the most ambitious comics project to come out of St. John's, an anthology of stories about the city by local creators! Eight chapters, eight neighbourhoods, eight cartoonists. Watch this space! www.kickstarter.com/projects/bla...

"We all have Hobbit potential within us." Just the greatest quote from Meghan McCarthy on our gardening episode on The Signal today on CBC. I'm hosting the next two days as well! Join us at noon, NL time.

My dog Ephesus is v pretty and you should probably know.

Hey, my book My Milkshake Brings all the Boys to the Yardarm is back in stock over at Timemasters! Snag a copy and support Canadian comics! About... British sailors... ugh, I'm bad at nationalism I guess.

Hey, I'm hosting On the Go today! We're talking to newcomers to the province, calling the first all-Canadian expedition to Antarctica, and talking to @bethanydowner.bsky.social about the BLOOD WORM FULL MOON. Tune to help us blow the lid off the "the Spice is the worm" controversy.

Not a bad scene to come out to after reading the morning news. #nlwx

U.S. tariffs are here, and Team Canada is in effect. I'm hosting On the Go this evening on CBC radio to talk about what's happening, what's going to happen and what it all means for you and me. Today at 4pm NL, 2:30pm est. #ElbowsUp

My next comic for Newfoundland Quarterly is about one of my favorite little beings in the entire world. Here's a sneak preview.

Yeah, but... they're also instruction manuals? These are all great and important books, but I'm kind of sick of the allegories that just show you the unbeatable evil. Where's the books about how we END those things? Because we always do. (This from the TAiLS of a Bookworm bookstore in Illinois.)

Walking my dog Effie in an upcoming short for NQ.

Gord Downie and @thetragicallyhip.bsky.social paraphrasing Hugh MacLennan in a video about Terry Fox may be the most Canadian thing that's ever happened. www.youtube.com/watch?v=bguD...

(oh no)

Hey, it's like the last 20 years of North American history in a post.

St. John's harbour, for the Lyubov Orlova piece I did for NQ a couple months ago. QRP with something watery!

Uh, excuse me wut

Downtown

This is it, the eternal struggle. If only we could have another snowblower to blow out to the shed to get the snowblower... #nlwx #nltraffic

Hope you weren't planning to heat it on the barbeque!

The plows are hard at it out there in whiteout conditions, but it's still coming down. Here's a look at conditions at 5:30 am vs 8:00 am. Blue roads are covered in snow, yellow are worse and not recommended for travel. #nlwx #nltraffic

That's so many cm of snow you guys

Yikes. We've heard the wind is so strong it's blowing the snow out of some streets and driveways and into others. Fingers crossed to be one of the lucky ones! (Not me, I was shoveling at 4:30am. 🥶) #nlwx

Here's the view from my desk. Blech. How're we doing put there Avalon? Everyone cozy inside? #nlwx #nlblizz #nltaffic

35 cm reported at St. John’s airport. Snow is starting to wind down but the strong winds will continue for the next few hours. Northwest winds gusting near 70 km/h will continue all day. #nlwx
