Wordle 1,727 2/6 ⬜🟨⬜🟨🟨 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 Look what I did! (I know I’m being obnoxious, but I can guarantee this won’t happen often…)

The Devil made me do it…

Fun fact: The „family size“ box of Triscuits could also be labelled „teenage boy size“, if you need to convert units.

Me too. I’m tired. Does it feel early? Late? I don’t know - just wrong. This cat made me chuckle so it isn’t all bad!

And, to quote AC/DC… “Dirty deeds… done dirt cheap”. Sometimes the initial price is cult-like loyalty, which seems cheap at first. The costs include: skyrocketing grocery bills, environmental destruction, human dignity and lives, democracy…. Always check for the hidden costs!

Snow by inches, falling falling, In fact, the forecast says it’s squalling - Can‘t even see the traffic light. Will this continue overnight? Tomorrow will the buses go? Or will the roads be full of snow? Four days before exams begin, Time to hand assignments in!

I wonder if Mark Carney's expert understanding of the US Bond Market might be the most powerful weapon of all in the NATO alliance?

Könnte mir jemand helfen? I have accidentally changed my settings so that my account is in German. For example, the Post button now says ‚Posten‘. I’m learning German, so this is helpful, but how do I switch it back to English if I want to? Viele Danken.

A good time to repost this, as our 🇺🇸neighbours are on the brink of civil war and imperial conquest, and well down the slippery slope of tyranny. To the brave souls in MN protesting and documenting, stay strong! #ElbowsUp #TrumpsteinFiles #I’mOnWatchListNow

Goodnight to the good people in the USA who are resisting, protesting, feeding, sheltering, organizing, etc. Sending strength, love, & courage from your neighbours above 🇨🇦

Make it viral.

It would be a real shame if more people started calling them the Trumpstein Files, especially when he’s trying so hard to distract us from the Trumpstein Files!

Amazing record for the FIFA

Dear Mother Nature: Next time there’s a ‘year’s best meteor shower’, lunar eclipse, spectacular Aurora Borealis, alignment of planets, etc. , could you pretty please send me clear skies? Thank you, Your devoted daughter living under a snow squall watch.

You know you’ve picked the right job when the Minister of Education refers to your Board as “a fiasco“. I do actually love my job (when I shut the door and focus on my students, while trying to remain oblivious to the fiasco, that is).

I got my Covid and Flu shots on Sunday. Instead of the usual tiredness the same day, I felt okay until evening, when everything started to ache. Chills, headache, aches kept me up much of the night, and I stayed home from work today. Still aching. Anyone else have this reaction?

What do you do when you have a toxic workplace but need to put in 1.5 more years to collect a good pension? Hanging on by a thread. Co-workers are awesome! Students are great! Atmosphere? Soul-crushing!

Stopped to chat with a familiar looking Dad and his young daughter today; they were admiring my dog (who was thrilled with the attention). Turns out he was a former student. He thanked me for teaching him, and said he’d learned a lot from me. I felt so touched that he’d shared this with me.

Why don’t women’s plus size 🩱have plus size cups/shelf bras? Every 🩱 I’ve ever owned fails to contain the girls. 👙doesn’t help: bra size stays the same, but straps get bigger and longer. Don’t they get that if I have big hips and a big ass, I might need more than a D cup?

Thank you a million times @eslfairy.bsky.social ! THIS is what kids need to hear! Some of the best and brightest in science, industry etc. are neurodivergent, but likely struggled with timed tests as kids! If all brains worked the same, what a dull world we would live in.

I suddenly need to know if anyone else still uses “How come” + declarative instead of “Why” + interrogative? E.g. “How come you’re late?” vs. “Why are you late?” If you’ve heard it lately, where, and by what generation? I’m early 50s Ontario, 🇨🇦.

Our Prime Minister ran the 26 km Haliburton Forest Trail Race, coming a very respectable 58th in a field of 120. Not bad, eh? 🇨🇦 I’m even more confident that if diplomacy and economic strategies don’t work out, our guy could kick the orange felon’s ass to the curb.

I swam 4.45 km today, in open water! My goal was to go from A to B (then along the shoreline to ensure I reached 4 km, but it was wavy and I was swimming against the wind: tiring and dangerous! So after 650 m, my safety boat drove me to B, and I swam 3.8 km back to A.

Me too!

Meeting with Canadian officials won't change anything, since it's Canadians who decided to avoid going to US. Nobody ordered to do so, it's a coast to coast movement. #BoycottUSA

I came up with a new curse to inflict upon my enemies in the summer: “May you have pointy rocks under thin-soled Crocs!” Yes, I’m on vacation and have plenty of time to walk (on gravel, in Crocs) and plan hexes, curses, and dishes of cold revenge. (Joking - I’m not that into the dark arts.)

Dear Smithsonian.......send your historical records to Canada before they're destroyed.

I swam 3.85 km today! Not bad for a 50+ yr old, out-of-shape lady! I love swimming in my local Great Lake, but this year I’m participating in the Swim 10 K in August challenge to raise $ for the Canadian Cancer Society. As of today, I’m at 12.6 km, and have raised $600.

Today I learned that the French name for Gravybones (a type of Milkbones dog biscuits) is “gât-os”. I do appreciate a pun, in any language, and my dog loves treats no matter what we call them!

Wordle 1,511 4/6 ⬛🟨⬛⬛⬛ ⬛⬛⬛⬛🟩 ⬛🟨🟨⬛🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 What was the success rate with this one? I feel like I took a lucky guess, but by my 4th row I‘d used up so many of the other letters, there weren’t really any other words I could come up with!

My German Shepherd has been nosing at my bedroom closet for a while. I finally got around to tidying up my closet, expecting evidence of mice, but instead I found her “stash”: 2 yak cheese sticks, 1 Dentastick, 2 rawhide chews, 1 cookie, 1 plastic bone, and 1 Lambchop (stuffed toy). No mouse poop!

Seriously, Folks...

Today I learned that a small shift in perspective can be a game changer. Making tabouli requires a LOT of chopped parsley. Normally I chop off the long stems, and then as I rinse, I tear off as much stem as possible while preparing to chop. …🧵
