I apparently type modern Greek with (an) ancient accent(s) when going fast. Someone take this polytonic keyboard away from me.

Y'all remember in 2014 when a USA goal was saved by one goal post and the collective will of everyone in Canada?

That's kind of how this election feels. Avoided a disastrous result, but were in a pretty crap situation to have to do it this way in the first place.

the year is 2247. the nation of Canada has weathered centuries of triumph and hardship. every aspect of Canadian life is unrecognizable compared to life in the early 21st century. Elizabeth May has just been reelected in the Saanich—Gulf Islands riding for the 97th time.

I'm not the only one, surely, who saves the foil wrappers of those little chocolate Easter eggs to construct a dastardly decoy 'last egg' made entirely of foil?

A foil Easter Egg pretending it is wrapped chocolate.

You'd really think all the moral philosophy would've prepared me for Tyche being the biggest obstacle to finishing the dissertation...

CBC Edmonton eating chili live on the radio at 6:20am is exactly the kind of wholesome I'm looking for right now.

Remember that time back when we humans thought pistachios needed to be pink?

Wild.

Okay, but does anyone whose dog is wearing pajamas *not* call that dog "Jammie Dogger"?

Kat @furtadosaurus.bsky.social · Oct 24

I guess we've reached the stage of our lives where we need to invest in dog pajamas so the Boxador stops waking us up in the night every time she shifts and needs to be tucked back in under her blankie.
