I call this piece “Requiem for a Jiggs Dinner”.

The Festive Special without a Toblerone is a crime against humanity.

This showed up in my memories today. I built the Newfoundland Caesar with Seaweed Gin, extra clam juice, Clamato and garnish with the classic hors d'oeuvre and corned caplin as garnish.

Random thought. If she had to change her number, Gotye was likely the problem.

Raven candidate dead last in PCSP right now.

Fine night of sports on tap.

Article in the Globe trying to explain why measles is making a comeback. It’s like the entire world has just stopped trying to move forward with medicine and science and let crackpots and charlatans run the show. The covid anti-vaxxers are the true virus.

Buddy with a “F*ck Trudeau” T-shirt at Tim’s in Mount Pearl. I wonder if these dudes will ever gain the intellectual ability to deal with their masculinity insecurities.

A buddy of mine in a group chat just said "fuck the CPC and the Panzer tank they rode in on" and I just had to share it.

Back to BlueSky again. It appears the dumbass RWNJs want to start a culture war. I am saddened that a father and husband was executed for his political beliefs. I am further saddened that Alex Jones is beatifying this man while he called the children of Sandy Hook "crisis actors". It's the guns.

Happy to have all these new followers from Canada and the USA. I note they are all lovers of democracy, fairness and economic equality. Once we organize together, the hard right will be truly and demonstrably silenced. Thats a good thing.

Hang it in The Louvre!

👋🏻 hello! I’m still delivering food to the pantries. We put in extra hand warmers just ahead of the weather that’s coming. If you want to donate items we are still collecting them at the library❤️

We did a big refill tonight for @communitycaremp.bsky.social. Kits going out soon to our pantries.

Dammit, someone brought Mint Oreos into the house and I’m going to eat all of em

I made the best glaze for the Christmas Eve ham tonight. Apricot Jam, Lyle’s Golden Syrup and butter. The ham was lauded more than the salt fish!

So do you guys stuff the cavity of turkey or do you do the stuffing separately?

Trudeau is likely out in the next 48 hours.

@jamespmcleod.ca Trump invoked the cancellation of Daylight Savings time (I don’t know exact details) but I am going to need your opinion on all of it.

HI Everyone. Thank's so much for the follow backs! Community Care Mount Pearl will be very active this holiday season. Sadly, the need for those less fortunate is greater than it has ever been. Our little pantries are always emptied. If you want to volunteer just a little bit of time, contact us.

Not today Satan…

Boop

I have achieved that point where I got the personalized Spotify Taylor Swift message in my yearly wrap. Not many men in their 50’s can claim that lol.

And after 40 days and 40 nights of rain, the lord looked upon the island people and said it will stop but it will freeze.

Newly discovered NL town of the day. Loch Leven. Southwest of Saint Fintan's on the west coast. Last population number I could find was 51 but that was 1996.

Mall management walks balk Sally Ann Christmas kettle ban yesterday. Today, enraged locals on Facebook still calling for the decision to be reversed while simultaneously under some impression that it's illegal to say Merry Christmas. Trump won, Poilievre is going to win. Rage is a helluva drug.

It’s a battle of political leverage. Who can use tariffs, retaliatory tariffs or sanctions to create more political pain for the other leader. Forcing them to capitulate or face undesired consequences. How crazy would it be if China, Mexico and/or Canada initiated tariffs before Trump took office

Canadian dollar tanking on Trump tariff announcement

Johnny Tavares with the pass of the year so far.

Finally doing a proper Christmas playlist and I am looking for suggestions. Note, I am an ardent adherent to the ritual of Whamageddon (google it) so please don’t suggest the 80’s Brit pop duo.

We now go live to Kevin McCarthy's reaction to Matt Gaetz's fall from grace.

I'm not killing the Twitter account because I want to protect my handle/name. However, I have decided to do something I never did before, engage a bot. Stay tuned for details.

The only way BlueSky is going to replace X is if everybody just follows as many people as you can. Don't worry about replicating what you had. Just follow people. It's going to be a bit boring until people build up their web of people.

Are Connor Hellebuyck and Adam Lowry the last two IceCaps on the Jets?

Now with direct flights to Dublin, London and Paris shouldn’t we sorta steal Iceland’s idea and market NL as the best place to stay to ease your jet lag en route to Europe from North America?

Excellent service at Lester Lube in the Pearl today and always.

56 Fleming St. One of St. John's most iconic 'hoods, Georgetown is an eclectic mix of charm and history. This semi-detached home retains its character & features off street parking. The kitchen is upgraded & modern. Mins from fresh bagels & a local pub. Walking distance to downtown & MUN. $385K MLS.

Just used wasabi in the Tuna salad as suggested by Matthew McConaughey. It’s a game changer. 10/10 recommend.

What’s the big deal with people wanting the half sized shopping cart? Putting things in the bottom is a pain, taking things out is even more annoying. #firstworldproblems

Anybody know of a gathering for the boxing match tonight? Downtown or otherwise? (yes, I know its on Netflix and not PPV). Like to see it with a crowd.

Ever since I joined BlueSky, I haven’t seen one.

So you know I'm going to post real estate listings here. It's my jam. This one isn't even my own listings but the vendor is one of our own Bluesky people. Best deal in Southlands, $399,900 for a 4 bedroom bungalow. MLS# 1276969

Hey! Take a minute an vote for this amazing baker. Everything she makes is a work of art! #Newfoundland #Baking
