•Speculative Fiction of all types
•Book Collecting
•Food and Drink of almost any variety
•Being "Left" in a way that doesn't mean "Centrist"
(middle aged white dude) i hadn't heard of hime til last year, when he was most streamed artist or somesuch.

i asked my colombian coworker about him: "not my style music but, man, you (gestures at skin and language) have no idea how big he is"

They can teach you how to control a skid all they want, but until you've done a successful 360° on a side street in East York, you'll never know...

No measurement, in this context, that isn't horrifying.

Nevermind "screen time epidemic" or "young male loneliness" or "I can't tell what a scam looks like".

The greatest test of our times is "I make jokes apply to my niche online obsessions, therefore they aren't funny".

looking at you #resistblue

meh, i don't know. it's sort of a bait and switch? and also a first world problem.

sounded like a side salad on the card, and it wound up being various pastes. in another situation, if I meant to order it, I probably wouldn't mind.

"fried field mushrooms on in house sourdough, comes with beetroot! (sauce) avocado! (sauce) goat cheese! (sauce)" and so on...

We had breakfast last week and my mushrooms on toast came out on a giant plate with ~7 loonie sized dollops of different sauces. This is 9am.

Even my partner, who is no big foody, was confused. I told her someone had taken a fancy cooking class 20 years ago and didn't care how it tasted.

As a bonus, if you had tied on a few too many the night before and dragged yourself in after 10am, you had the option for lemony greek-style potatoes over hash browns with your breakfast.

My god, I'm salivating.

If you haven't read about her, Marcia Lucas, or rather her absence, is the number one reason the films fell off a cliff.

The podcast What Went Wrong has some fun episodes on all the films, as well as other Licas ventures, and she features prominently.

"reducing car dependency" should be read as "Imagine how much more money you'd have without lease, fuel and insurance payments", nevermind maintenance

I don't understand people who demand to drive 30min each way for groceries

Especially when that's not being outlawed, just giving you an option

Seek it out, if you can. iirc, Tim Curry played his "nemesis".
