Is it weird that whenever I see 4-on-3 being played I wonder what Klefbom is up to these days? #Oilers

Why do they even show the aerial view as a replay to see if the stick is above the crossbar? #Oilers

Nurse was the D-man on that play? You don't say. #Oilers

Oh that no-look backhand pass by Tomasek was nice. #Oilers

No one cares, Jack! #Oilers

NUGE OPENS THE SEASON! #LetsGoOilers

Troy Stecher looks like he should be on a yacht or at a wedding #Oilers

Marchand is now in the Timmy's commercials with Sid and Nate?

@yegrutabaga.bsky.social Brasstastics sighting on TV

Elliotte's suit is surprisingly muted.

Pet Sematary is on TV. I've never read it nor watched it before. Didn't know Tasha Yar (Denise Crosby) was in it.

@yegrutabaga.bsky.social Pulled some of the weeds and grass that grew through the cracks in my driveway. I started doing this in the fall. I hate it when I shovel snow for the first time and run the shovel over the driveway but come to a jarring stop because I ran into a patch of dead weeds.

I prefer using bar soap instead of liquid soap in my bathroom. Less plastic & fun scents (currently have a cinnamon & orange soap bar from a local company). Unfortunately they leave behind a gucky film so I have to use that sink snake velcro-tip thing to unclog hair from the drain regularly. 🤢

It is disconcerting, to say the least, to see a daddy long legs spider crawling on the side of your glasses while you are wearing them. At least I was outside and this didn't happen when I was laying in bed or on my couch.

Adventures in driving: Turning a corner onto a one way street and seeing a car coming at me. (The other car was traveling in the wrong direction.)

I just saw someone use the abbreviation “AI;DR” and I’ll be laughing for a while.

So Drai is making more than Connor. But, Drai got married in the south of France this summer, didn't he? Need to consider the exchange rate with the Euro. 😄 Anyways, glad 97 extended for 2 years.

@madstash.bsky.social I'm working this wkd. Just checking the weather: -1°C.

Strongly considering going to bed before 9 pm. Because I'm an adult.

@yegrutabaga.bsky.social I already have a poor air quality headache. Whee

They cut off his mic. We’re giving him the floor. Join Evan Li and me for a conversation tonight! ⏰ 8 PM 📺 YouTube Live: youtube.com/@naheednensh...

The AHS corruption that Danielle Smith ran would have sunk most reasonable governments awhile ago. She has successfully used the separatism drama to hide her involvement - with the convenient assistance of local media largely refusing to report and repeat on it.

By way of context… In May, 22,300 teacher voted against the UCP’s offer at 61.99% Today, 38,113 voted no at 89.5%. In May, 13,517 voted to accept. Today? Only 4,479. The UCP managed to find a way to actually make things worse. #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli #abed

'The same old offer but we'll throw in a dose of the now-not-free COVID vaccine' has not impressed Alberta teachers. 89.5% of ATA members have voted to reject the government's latest offer.

When I watched 2 of the Final Destinations in a row earlier today, I scoffed. I'd seen the original, the most recent, and one of the in between ones before. Today was the 1st time I've watched FD 2. Anyways, when I opened a cupboard, some Tupperware fell out onto me. I thought I def deserved it.

@yegrutabaga.bsky.social Thought about doing yardwork. Baking cookies instead. Am out of chocolate chips. So I'm using bits of old mini-Toblerones.

@mementomorty.bsky.social Watching Final Destination 2. The way the cords are tangled in the ICU room is 😬 Inevitably leads to the cord for the ventilator being unplugged.

So this season's Amazing Race: -has fewer teams -has Big Brother alumni on each team -are only traveling in Europe? I'm not sure about this. Also, I wonder why it's taking place entirely in Europe.

@madstash.bsky.social It was chilly this morning

Have you ever gone to a store to buy replacement batteries for something? Then get home & think they're not the right size. So you return the batteries, get another size & replace, only to find out that the part you replaced wasn't dead. Another part also has batteries, in the 1st size you got. 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♂️

Trying out knitting two-at-a-time socks. Pros: efficient Cons: frogging (because when a mistake is made, you're taking not one, but *two* socks off the needles, and hoping you can rethread them correctly 🥴) 🧶

I can't help but think that the Trump admin trying to link autism to pregnant people taking Tylenol, the only pain killer that is acrually okay to take, is some moral thing to make women "suffer through it" to prove they're "worthy" or some weird, conservative bullshit

The cooler temperatures of Autumn means that we will start to encounter fewer creepy crawly bugs outside. That's because they are moving into our homes where they can be nice and warm.

Detangling yarn while listening to an audiobook is a nice Sunday afternoon activity.

@yegrutabaga.bsky.social Had one of those "taking a test" dreams last night. Weirdly, it was a French test & I was asking the examiner a question. I had to ask it in French & I came up with it! I distinctly recall searching for the word for "lyrics" & my brain found it. ("Paroles" if you're curious)

This is not appealing at all. Especially Nurse apparently being captain. Who on earth thought this was a good promo?

the world is so stupid again today

Engagement in this October's municipal elections seems very low. Municipal government is the realm that MOST impacts our daily lives. The water that comes out of your taps, the roads/pathways/sidewalks you use every day, your safety, city services and infrastructure, etc. Get informed. Vote.

So should we have a pool to see when Weekend Update and/or Saturday Night Live gets pulled?

This is all he said.
