I was today years old when I discovered that my kitchen outlet and living room outlet on the other side of my apartment are on the same fuse.
Heater running in the living room and kettle running in the kitchen = very hot blown fuse 🤦🏼♀️
I guess it’s time to order more fuses

About 0.3-0.5% of women are trans. If you’re not going to allow them to win sports 0.3-0.5% of the time, you don’t care about fairness, you just care about oppressing trans people.

My journey toward building a custom coffee table begins with practicing the basics, and I'm really happy with how this shelf turned out!

Thinking about colonizing the properties of OneBC MLAs and claiming them as my own. According to them, doing so is something to be celebrated.

Despite BC NDP members passing a resolution calling on the government to repeal the Name Change Ban, David Eby and Mike Farnworth say “no.”
Shame on them.

There need to be social consequences for enacting anti-evidence policies that kill kids.
One of Danielle Smith’s staffers just called me over (??) at an event wanting to say hi.
Once I realized who she was, immediately questioned her about trans rights.

Today is Trans Day of Remembrance. It’s a time for us to remember gender diverse people around the world who have lost their lives to violence. To take the life of an innocent person is a reprehensible act and such acts cannot be allowed to continue.

Invoking the notwithstanding clause to shield legislation from Charter challenges is tantamount to the province of Alberta acknowledging that its actions violate the Canadian Constitution.

Am I the only construction worker who generally prefers to work with corded tools?
I went to the hardware store to inquire about getting a 7-1/4” or 8-1/2” corded sliding compound mitre saw and was met with confusion by a Milwaukee rep (they no longer sell those).

Sounds like both the BC Green and BC NDP conventions went well this weekend!
BC NDP members put pressure on their caucus to undo their own party’s harmful legislation, while BC Green members continued the push to do no harm in the first place.

This experiment in fruit salad turned out to be really good!
I used honey pomelo, orange, pomegranate, purple passion fruit, Asian pear, lemon juice, and a tiny bit of sugar. Next time I’ll add a little less pomelo and more passion fruit. 😋
