Been collecting People magazine posts lately. I wonder if the stuff is intentional? These kind of posts get significantly more engagement than their normal stuff.

The current Public Mobile BF deals are pretty weak compared to what I already have, from BF last year. 👎

I went through and looked at every single provider in Canada I could find and tossed them into the comments under this post on FB: www.facebook.com/cmcalgary/po...

Deals this year kind of suck.
Screenshot of the current Public Mobile black Friday deals, and my current subscription. I'm paying $35/mo for 50 GB 5G data. The current offer from PM for $35/mo is 10 GB (lol)

Google Pixel 9 and 10 are on sale for BF. About 20-30% off each of them. $500 for a Pixel 9a seems like good deal? I use a 9 Pro XL but it's probably a nice upgrade if you have an older Android device.

Bluesky seems like it might be the best place to post this. Saw this at chapters, only $12, picked it up as kind of a gag gift for the kid. She's in her late teens. I've never read this book or even know what's in it but a friend suggested bad idea. She's big into horror, goth, etc. Thoughts? Dumb?

Why are our tax dollars subsidizing American propaganda?

via r/Alberta on reddit:

"Jason Stephan quoted Mormon scripture as “Canada’s founding principles” during his abortion speech in the Legislature"

Jason Stephan is the MLA for Red Deer-South.

www.reddit.com/r/alberta/co...

#Alberta #ableg #abpoli #cdnpoli
A screenshot of the entire reddit post. "On November 19, Jason Stephan addressed the Legislature regarding abortion access. In his remarks, he asserted that Canada was founded on Judeo Christian principles. He then proceeded to cite passages that were not constitutional or biblical in origin, but were taken almost verbatim from Mormon doctrinal texts. The following are the lines he used in the Legislature, alongside their corresponding passages from The Family: A Proclamation to the World, an official doctrinal statement issued by the LDS Church in 1995 (128 years after the Canadian Constitution was written), and other LDS texts. "

Looks like they're adding a Crokicurl rink to Barb Scott Park. It's inside the area where they would normally create an ice rink. Maybe that won't be happening this year? Maybe they do both? Jenkies

I got almost nothing accomplished today that I had wanted to. Still got stuff done.. but other stuff, bleh. Hoping to find a good project management/planner app or something some day still. I can get stuff done but my task prioritization is a nightmare. So random. I can get sidetracked so easily :(
