Shout out to @awesomebiota.bsky.social for introducing me to the world of baby food pouches. This has greatly increased the selection of snacks/nutrients I'm able to digest 🙃

On April 12, 1980, Terry Fox, accompanied by his friend Doug Alward, dipped his right leg into the Atlantic Ocean at St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador. It began the Marathon of Hope and turned Fox into a Canadian hero and icon. This is the story. 🧵 1/15

What Cathy said!!

Have any other regular #halisky transit users noticed a huge increase in new riders the past 2 weeks? Definitely noticing it on Dartmouth-Halifax routes as gas prices rise! #halifaxtransit

"Orion, the Moon, and the Earth. EVERYONE, in that picture" - #Artemis II Mission Control.

Why is Beck so good!?! #svenska #gunvaldlarsson #nordiccrime

Tomorrow afternoon and evening will be big for the Artemis II crew! They’ll FLY AROUND THE MOON and I’d recommend tuning into the NASA livestream through the day and into the night tomorrow (Monday, April 6). Two screenshots attached of timings, all given in Eastern Time!

It’s officially spring in Dartmouth

I don't know if I'll ever meet another soul as special as Foster! 💕 I only knew him for 5 years, but it has felt like I've known him forever! I knew I was officially an honourary member of the Math/CS department when he started bringing me homemade treats! www.dignitymemorial.com/en-ca/obitua...

Note to self - always have backup storm chips at home.

What is the over/under on me spilling my Shirley coffee all over the lobby again today?

About the only thing going right this morning! #nerdalert

Today...has not been off to a good start! 🙃

My sources say it was former president John Barron

CANADA 🇨🇦 FOR THE WIN THE CANADIAN WHEELCHAIR CURLING TEAM HAS WON GOLD. THEY ARE PARALYMPIC CHAMPIONS. THEY WENT UNDEFEATED. CANADA DEFEATS CHINA IN A THRILLER.

QUALIFIED FOR PLAYOFFS The Canadian wheelchair curling team has clinched a semifinal berth at the Paralympics due the results in this morning’s draw. At 6-0 Canada leads the way and now aims to lock up top spot in the round robin.

Really hoping my favourite morning bus driver is on vacation and hasn't had his schedule or route changed! 🚍

There is some magic around this Canadian wheelchair curling team. A massive two-win day against China and Sweden. Scored three in the final end to beat Sweden. Canada is all alone in first place at 6-0 here at the Paralympics.

Good luck to Emma Archibald from Fall River! She's the only Nova Scotian competing in the Milano Cortina Paralympics this year, and the first Nova Scotian to compete in Para nordic cross-country skiing at the Games. Go, Emma, go!

One of those days where it's a requirement to listen to Aqua before 0800! #tuesdaymotivation #danish #aquaaquarium

What Tiffany said!

Mood swings but it's just me oscillating between yelling about the mayor and yelling about the premier.

When you're having a rough morning, but remember you have half of a "Shirley cookie" waiting in the office! 💕

So...I should probably now stop joking with "what are they going to do, fire me?" because while the answer is still no, with an $11mil budget cut, I will almost certainly be laid off as an "unnecessary" budget line item here. Anyone hiring? 🧐😑 my job skills are simultaneously random and diverse.

In Frankie we trust!!!

Heavy Snow to Hit Nova Scotia on Wednesday February 11, 2026

McMaster University has posted the email written by the professor to Canadian figure skater Maddie Schizas, granting her an extension on her assignment. “I’d say focus on the competition right now, and submit it directly to me when it is done” This is a really lovely note.

Absolutely gutted for Lindsey Vonn ❤️‍🩹

Things that are really annoying as a transit user on a Saturday...a bus leaving early (and watching it pull out as your current bus pulls in)! The 54 seems to do this every night! @hfxtransit.bsky.social

What Alison said! @devinheroux.bsky.social is the best!

Good morning @tiffzny.bsky.social 🌫

MARK MCMORRIS UPDATE The Canadian Olympic Committee says McMorris was taken to hospital after a fall last night. He’s since been released and back at Olympic Village with medical staff. He will undergo follow-up testing to determine if he can compete tonight in the big air qualification
