what on EARTH

My house is haunted by the Tooty Ghost. He's not particularly scary, though he is flatulent enough that he bases his entire identity around it.

Anyway, he gets the blame whenever the dog's not around.

Rosie the Ribbiter by Canadian artist Jo Blakely (@[email protected]).

Rosie the Riveter poster only it’s the Portland frog and it reads: Rosie the Ribbeter says We Can Do It! She has a no kings button, and where it said War Production Department in original, war is now Peace production.

I went to the Bookmark in its new location on Kent Street last night. It's beautiful. The kids' section is terrific. I wish I'd had more time to take it all in, but lordy, what I saw was great.

Y'all, I gave my kids a few bowls of pancake batter and food some for colouring, and they've been busy for 45 minutes mixing strange colours together into the batter.

These pancakes are gonna be flat as hell, but the kids SHUT OFF the TV for this. I call it a win.

I was never much of a TV guy, and this post reminds me how much TV I couldn't stand way back when.

Thursday night December 9th, 2004: what would you watch?

Keith Burgoyne @keithburgoyne.bsky.social · 2d

I was never much of a TV guy, so, I dunno. The Daily Show, maybe? I recognize so many shows I couldn't stand when I was younger.

I can't help admiring her. She might very well be the one who saves the US from itself.

AOC: And they are able to radicalize a generation of young boys in particular, away from healthy masculinity and into an insecure masculinity that requires the domination of others who are poorer, browner, darker, or a different gender than them.
