I had 5 days off for the holidays, and I spent all 5 resting. I regret nothing.

The same people who brought you, “Women don’t have hobbies” are now saying that reading smut or spicy books don't count as reading. I'm going to need these people to 1. Make up their minds and 2. Understand that words have meanings. “Reading” a book is reading a book, regardless of genre.

So many peole from BC really believe they don't have an accent, but hearing the internet pick out how Hudson Williams says “tour” vindicates those of us who have had to hear, “Our accent isn't as thick as everyone else in Canada” knowing damn well that it isn't true.

My mother would 100% do this if anyone ever surprised her with a rambunctious dog.

People only think you're pretty because you're skinny.

Biblically accurate Saint Nick.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all! Wishing you peace, contentment, prosperity, and love in this season and in the upcoming year!

How does one tell a coworker that IT can see everything they post, even if they use incognito mode? Asking for a friend.

I think hockey players and a good portion of the fans are ready for the first openly gay player to come out, but the Establishment™️ is not. Their rolling back of diversity (ex: not allowing Fleury to wear his mask featuring indigenous art, banning the use of pride tape/warm-up jerseys) was a sign.

The Streisand effect remains undefeated

I just uploaded @jasonparis.bsky.social 's recording of the segment CBS News pulled from "60 Minutes" to YouTube:

I'm gonna have to put that lady on the sick and shut-in list. I'd been ignoring her for years, but it's time to make it official.

He's a fool. I would never sink all my hopes and dreams into something that can be undone when there's no electricity. Books will never be obsolete.

This reminds me of something I told my friend after his divorce. Formerly married men often think that the fact that they aren't attracted to their wives means that other men won't be either. His ex has had 2 serious relationships since they split. Him? ZERO. And it was his idea to break up. 🤷🏾‍♀️

I don't follow boxing at all, but I'm loving all the results I'm seeing. Great job, everyone!

When you see the weapon formed against you that will prosper 😭😂

Me forgetting that I own the Twilight Soundtrack, so I don't have to be sad about 3/4 of the album being geoblocked on streaming. Keep your physical media, kids.

What I like most about Heated Rivalry is that while it's mainly about Shane and Ilya, the ensemble is also really great. Everyone, from Svetlana, Rose, Elena, Shane’s parents, Hayden, Ilya’s dad and trifling brother, Alexei, Scott, Kip, Kip’s dad, Cliff, JJ, they all add something. It's lovely.

At least once every few months, I wonder why I don’t have a specific song on my phone and then I realize that I only had it on my iPod because I had the physical cd. I can just play the CD.

You know sis on the right posted the kiss photo on her chosen fanfic forum along with a story about them being happily married and how they fell in love as rookies.

That was my favourite episode of the season. 10/10, no notes. #HeatedRivalry

This! Survivor used to be the less embarrassing CBS reality show to watch. At least Big Brother knows that on some level, it's a clown show. Survivor still takes itself pretty seriously while doing stuff like this. 🤦🏾‍♀️

Lol oops!

And she’s not just Nova Scotian, she’s from BEDFORD! That’s really cool!

I cannot believe that people nuked one of the most reliably “protected by herd immunity/vaccines” diseases within a decade. There was 1 case in 2021. Currently, there's 5500+ just in Canada.

I knew Rachel Reid (Author of Heated Rivalry and other books in the Game Changers series) was Canadian, but I had no idea she was a fellow Scotian! Very cool!

Well, I, for one, had no idea that men weren’t considered people. When did that happen? Also? They’re cookies.

There’s a regular customer who always comes in and talks hockey with me. I had to resist the urge to ask him what he thinks of “Heated Rivalry” because despite all the inclusion initiatives, hockey is still one of the most conservative professional sports, and so are many of the fans.

Wash them black jeans ONE TIME and bam. Now you got super dark gray jeans.

No windows. A master room that’s also a porch. A tiny 4th bedroom with a sink in it. A mud room/laundry room with two bathtubs in it. A gallery halll. 11 sinks! This floor plan is so chaotic that I’m positive the architects’ jobs will be safe.

There's someone arguing with me on Tiktok about whether or not the Oz books were written for children. They think they weren't because "most children couldn't read or afford books in the 1900's" and I am now taking to the bottle. Because this is not a bot.

I'm watching “Pretty Baby” the documentary about Brooke Shields, and I keep either audibly gasping, or saying “ew!” because people were so creepy and weird towards her as a CHILD. A court once ruled that n*de photos taken of her at age 9 could be released to the public. I beg your finest pardon?!

I just read an essay so bad that I thought a middle schooler wrote it. This young person believes they deserve a better mark than 0 for an essay with no introductory statement, no thesis, no citations, no attributions, and several contradictions. (Theyll probably get their way, but they shouldn't.)

That looks inedible.

Joie de livres and Courage My Love are two of my favourite names for stores. I’ve only been to one of them (Courage My Love in Kensington) and it’s excellent.

Much of my reading of hockey romances is just me failing to suspend my disbelief and enjoy the story. I feel like I’m being nitpicky, but understanding the culture you’re writing about is important and some writers just don’t.

COLOR me shocked that I reinstalled my Crave subscription just in time to watch the adaptation of one of the handful of hockey romance books that I read and genuinely enjoyed.

I had Canada in my bio for over a decade on the other site because that's where I currently am/live. Tell me why they removed it on Friday? 😂

the last 24 hours on X, summed up:

Got my inbox down to 2 unread emails when it was originally over 10,000. Please clap.

Can Roots start designing the Canada Olympic team uniforms again? I'm tired of this.

I'm going to buy this. I love dictionaries!

They do know that makes it even worse, right? RIGHT?

I like it here on Bluesky, but the bad place is still where you go when you want to see people read someone to absolute filth.

What a terrible time to be able to read and understand text.

My workplace gives out covid rapid tests. I always know when there’s a new wave of infections because people start calling to see if we have them.

I really should stop trying out things that are a bit pricey to see if I like them. Paula’s Choice retinol costs $91 here, but it’s the best one I’ve tried so far.

Girl.
