My best friend and I saw this post on Instagram about horror movies and we've decided to set up a watch schedule that follows these themes (though we expanded the summer into different types of teen/kid horror) /1

Oh how the gentle wind Beckons through the leaves As autumn colours fall Dancing in a swirl Of golden memories The loveliest lies of all

Man I don't know that I've ever paid attention to the number amounts for votes in the municipal election before, but they seem really dismal? I'm glad most of the people I voted for got elected. But damn, is voter turn out always this small?

Robin Williams' daughter has some quality thoughts on AI slop

Today is my D&D group's second annual Soupsgiving. I'm bringing pozole rojo. The Mexican grocery store only have comically large cans of hominy so I see more pozole in my future. Coconut milk can for scale

#31DaysOfGraves - flower Let's see how many of these I can do without taking new photos. These flowers are on the stone belonging to Captain Alfred Smith in Cupids, NL

Of course this would happen here www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

You may have heard on The Independent that 3 MUN students are part of the current Freedom Flotilla, delivering humanitarian aid to Gaza. Please read the linked petition and consider signing. Sincerely, Barry docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

I got covid for the first time last week and I hope it never happens again. It has been rough and I'm still tired from it 😞

oh to be a woman running through a foggy cemetery in the middle of the night barefoot in a ghostly nightgown

vocm.com/2025/09/15/2... Okay, but that's worse. You see how that's worse, right? Because now you are implying that either your researchers knowingly put in fake sources or are poor/lazy researchers who didn't know/want to verify all their sources. And that makes the report even less credible.

It's almost the best time of the year!

Went around the bay yesterday for the last night my best friend was in town. I'm so sad she's gone but I had an amazing time with her while she was here 🖤

RIP my youth. I put the FUN in funeral! My farewell to my 30s party was so good! My friends made me a memory graveyard of memories from my 30s. Some of them wrote me eulogies. We had a coffin for photos. And my mom made a cake!

My dad (where I get my imagination from absolutely) gave my Tooth Fairy the name Lucinda. When I was getting too old for Tooth Fairies, she was promoted to Princess. The Princess Lucinda of my childhood would never but if I were to have a Tooth Fairy now? She absolutely would.

My parents bought me a cauldron for my birthday so I can make my d&d soups in style

Picking up some vodka in prep for my 40th birthday this weekend and got ID'd at the liquor store. Gonna ride that win for the rest of the day

My birthday is next week and it's a big one so I've been preparing to go All Out ™️ for this one. Step one: Birthday nails My mood board vs my nails

Dewy grass, damp stone, salt air, blueberries Reminds me of waiting at the cemetery in Winterton, Newfoundland for everyone to show up before we buried my grandparents' ashes and picking blueberries by the gates to the horror of my mother (and I imagine to the delight of my late grandfather)

Growing up, my dad would do the groceries and he would go off without a list and his undiagnosed ADHD self would just go by vibes of what he wanted to cook or what he thought we needed. He somehow always bought a turnip only to come home to find we already had turnips /1

It's #BlackCatAppreciationDay? Here's my black cat, Hex, who I appreciate very much even though she is always doing shenanigans

It's midnight and is 21 degrees. It reminds me of when I went to Mexico City in October 2023. Hot and humid and impossible to sleep

Remote? This fire is 8000 hectares, affecting 3000+ people, evacuated 7 communities with one more on evacuation alert, and only an hour and a half drive from the capital city

I have had this song stuck in my head for days now youtu.be/OLkPwxcIji0?...

Back on my eggs Benedict bullshit

The irony and anxiety of watching my province burn in our driest summer yet after knowing successive governments went all in on oil and gas regardless of climate change science. I'm so mad and scared and I can't really put those feelings anywhere useful

If you are in an area with wildfire smoke, please mask. Use an air purifier inside. Close the windows. Wildfire smoke is not just wood smoke, it is chemicals too. You do not want it in your lungs.

When I rewatch Buffy, I want a lot of things from the show. Various outfits, Faith's lipstick, a cool job at the Magic Box. But I know I've officially become old because with this rewatch I have decided I really want Buffy's couch. It looks so comfy and a great place to curl up on and take a nap.

Great news! My parents don't have hereditary hemochromatosis. They're just carriers (which is why I am the way I am). Now we just gotta get my brother tested!

Is anyone else stressed about the Kingston fire? I'm way more stressed about it than the Holyrood fire which is closer to me. There's something about seeing the growing list of evacuation orders that is setting off a panic in me

Spent the last hour prepping and rolling summer rolls and making peanut dipping sauce for the d&d gang. We might not be mastermind players but we are well fed!

vocm.com/2025/08/02/r... Hot take, there's no appropriate time to joke about locking an under 16 year old girl in your basement for 3 weeks without food because you think she's too fat to row. Champion of inclusivity my fucking ass. Get fucked, bro.

Nothing better than laying in the dark watching lightning flash and hearing the thunder rumble in the distance

Summertime spooky nails

I had a really great time at the Rockbouhd Roots conference yesterday and Saturday! Genealogy isn't really my area but it intersects with my interests in many ways so it was really interesting to hear what other people are looking for and working on.

I want to finish my PhD but man is MUN ever making it hard to justify continuing to pay them tuition when they refuse to divest from Israeli companies that fund genocide and keep closing and cutting any departments that aren't STEM related

Terrible photo, but this is my memorial tattoo for my grandparents. The hippocampus is featured on their family crest and I added the red roses for my grandmother (her name was Ruby)

It's the time of year where I think if I could just peel off my skin and give my insides a cold bath I could survive the summer

Okay so looking at this the puberty thing was a mistake and there's a correction but I'm still suspicious.

Jesus Christ. I got my period for the first time when I was 9. NINE. That's grade 4. I'd have had to wait 5 more years before I could learn about the normal functioning of my own body? How can they be allowed to do this?

Some days you just gotta get your nails done to look like the stickers you collected as a kid

TTRPG friends: what are the puzzles/riddles you've used or played that have been the most fun? Talking actual puzzles, not like there's a door and it's unlocked and you just let the players try everything before they realise they can just walk through the door kind of thing.

This has been a hard year on so many levels so of course it's time for my annual BTVS rewatch

Feeling crappy so I'm rewatching Empire Records. Did this movie make anyone else want to work at an indie record shop when they were younger or just me?

Sometimes you have a bad day and need to attempt to take a selfie with a baby goat and do a craft

Turns out if you watch too many Canadian political tiktoks before bed you have 2.5 dreams about Mark Carney

I can tell my iron is back up because I have been faling asleep on the couch the past few days and my body feels heavy and slow

Of course my oven would make a strange zapping sound, spark, and then die as I'm preheating it to roast pork for family dinner in an hour and a half. Of course. I guess we'll find out if my instapot can handle a roast pork instead

Canadian TTRPG friends: this is $3 at Dollarama. Travel dice tower, comes with dice, 6 dry erase magnetic initiative trackers, and a dry erase marker. Pretty decent for $3. Also bonus points for creative names. Biblur is going to be an NPC in my campaign
