Omg the request I made in 2022 for my grandfathers Canadian military records finally came through. 26 pages of godawful cursive to dig through.
Key takeaways on first glance:

- they recommended he not enlist because of my Nana. He was like “nah let’s go”.

So is LinkedIn really is just tech bros jerking each other off over AI or is it just my feed? Good god I’m glad I’m securely employed until I retire with no need to network and don’t have to delve into that nonsense.

Build the damn school.

You have to block them immediately. The full nuclear. They are only here to make folks angry, and that can’t happen if we lock them out.

Woke up with Wolf Parade already stuck in my head, so the obsession shows no sign of fading any time soon.

Crowd control is a skill. Jesus fucking Christ, teach it to your employees who may be faced with an unexpected crush crowd in a small holding area.
Completely unrelated to the above, Canada Line is having issues this morning.
