Exciting game, but not enough boys

Game 7 tomorrow night

Spyker @spykersnep.bsky.social · 29m

Go Jays!

Spyker @spykersnep.bsky.social · 2h

Two boys at the door, see me in my snep costume with a Blue Jays jersey on

Boy 1: Who are you?
Boy 2: Blue Jays mascot
Me, nodding
Boy 1: No, seriously. Who are you?
Boy 2: Blue Jays mascot!
Me, nods again and points to Boy 2

I don't think Boy 1 was impressed. Also, Blue Jays, call me <3

Know it's going to be a good night when Ohtani strikes out...

And you scare a little boy to tears just by opening the door in costume

I love it when people talk about DND and being a "rouge" character. So you're really into makeup? Or are you just red in the face all the time?

It's true. I WFH but just got out of a department meeting and wore my fursuit because a costume contest was a part of the festivities

Is it the raccoon's tail?

Looks bigger and poofier in the bottom panel, but that could be intentional

Definitely not the only one

I have to add a little mayo and relish (or pickles) to the tuna first

And then serve with some noodles fried in butter and bread crumbs (because noodles need more carbs apparently)

I still enjoy getting fish and chips on Fridays, but vary it up a bit sometimes by getting other seafood. Like calamari or shrimp

Or, of course, just going vegetarian for the day

Spyker @spykersnep.bsky.social · 1d

Now, we never had these weird tuna wieners. It was usually some sort of cheap fried fish, because, well, cheap. Sometimes we would have proper fish, but that was pretty rare

For Catholics, it's been a rule or tradition from the 13th century that anyone over the age of 7 abstains from eating meat on Fridays, during Lent and outside of Lent

This does vary a bit around the world, but a lot of Catholics maintain the tradition regardless

Fish Friday is the best Friday, and it's every Friday!

Help define the next chapter of Canada's AI leadership

Was just watching MoistCritikal's video about this game and was pleasantly surprised to hear a familiar voice

Congrats!

It looks very cool

Wait until you hear my mother pronounce "gnocchi" or "tortilla"

I twitch a little every time

Aren't rugby players usually doctors and lawyers and such?

If you're interested in learning how to make Chinese food, i'd definitely recommend Chinese Cooking Demystified on YT

Made a number of their recipes myself. They always taste good, and they understand that you might not be able to find exact ingredients over here

This is the second video i've seen of someone doing this... and both times my cat has looked at me with concern in her eyes because she hears the bagpipe music
