No donations in September, maybe October will be different? i hate to ask, but things just keep getting Worse™️

Postal strike means i can't even sell art to Canadians & non-US residents right now. Maybe i'll start doing some digital stuff, desktop wallpapers etc? who the hell knows

Jays fans let out a collective sigh of relief just now that may change weather patterns across Canada.

it's kinda tough being a Jays fan on the west coast. a Jays/Mariners pennant series would be *chef's kiss*

not in the truck, this town only gets two stations, neither of which play ball games. The local minor hockey team, though

Ew ew ew just for an ad for one of those AI assistants in which a woman asks it to write a haiku about her cat.

You can’t write a 3 line, 17 syllable poem about your cat?????

What is being alive for if not writing tiny little poems about your cat??!!

Add this to my joker file. Good lord.

Be the sort of person where even the rumor of your demise sparks a global depressive spiral and not the Ewok celebration from Return of the Jedi

“There are just a lot of rumors flying around. But I figured if you heard it from me, you’d know that I was okay,” Dolly Parton said in a new two-minute video posted on Instagram. “I’m not ready to die yet. I don’t think God is through with me. And I ain’t done working.” https://to.pbs.org/4hc1DXB

'I'm not dying': Dolly Parton responds to concerns about her health

Late last month Parton postponed her first Las Vegas residency in 32 years, citing “health challenges.”

Sadly, it's in the middle of northeastern BC's oil & gas patch, a part of the province that actually wanted to separate and join Alberta back in the 90s (they probably still do, tbh)

one of the little charming funny things about the DIY automotive Youtuber "ChrisFix" is how he labeled a spray bottle "Soapy Wooder" 😹

the nearby community of Kiskatinaw was rendered by toddler me into "Kiss Kitty, aw" & i thought it was a town where kittens lived & you could kiss them.

oh yeah there are some weird mispronounced-French place names in BC, my favourite is Pouce Coupe (locals call it "poo scoopy" & you can imagine how delightful that was for little toddler me to say!)

one of my oldest fly fishing buddies is an Italian-American from Albany, NY. The first time we ever spoke on the phone, he said "You sound like Fargo!" and i said "You sound like Goodfellas!" LOL
