there’s just not enough hours in the day to work, stay informed, clean, take care of myself, cook, do laundry, read 100k words of fanfiction, yearn and plot a revenge plan against my enemies

Cold, snowy winter is the best! Bright blue sky, crispy air. When it gets dark early, time for pjs and flannel duvet + books. Or a crackling fire plus all the winter soups to enjoy?? So cozy.
Summer, I wilt like a 19thC damsel on a fainting couch. Heat & humidity is the worst.

Community exists & thrives bc the unpaid, invisible carework/domestic labour of women..

(and everything is genderrr)
part of this is like, conservatives projecting; part of this is conservatives unable to imagine politics without money; and part of this is dudes who are so out of touch with feminized labor that they think children's birthday parties exist as a spontaneous act of parthogenesis
I mostly just stay off Twitter altogether but after double checking that the Walter Hudson post was still up I ran across this and just had to share so the Romancelandians who bought hand warmers could hear about the PROFESSIONAL GRADE LOGISTICS.

Sat in a mtg w/ seniors last week discussing printing merch for fundraising- to a one they were all 100% adamant we were not using a US company. The Canadian grannies are still enraged, still boycotting 👊
'Federal agents kills a man in broad daylight on camera while Trump threatens to escalate a trade war after he feels personally slighted.'
This is America, lather, rinse, repeat.

Tried to explain to boomer parents why AI is a scraping slop machine, & no, their friend who's vanity publishing a kid's book should absolutely not use it, & find an actual artist instead. But it's great, they say! You just type in what you want & WOW it coughs up terrible things..MAGIC *jazz hands*

Loved watching Wok with Yan when I was a little kid- he made cooking seem fun & approachable! And goofy! I lived for his apron puns, lol.
This show & The Urban Peasant were my favs, just get into the kitchen, cooking food doesn't have to be hard or fancy :)

we never filled the cultural hole left by Wok with Yan. now THIS was a guy with irrepressible enthusiasm for the wok. stirring different ingredients in em, flippin stuff up in the air. that's basically it i guess. doesn't sound like enough for a show till Yan does it. whole time he's kinda yellin'

Still not confused about why women choose the bear.
Never escaping the adage "men are afraid that women are laughing at them; women are afraid that men will kill them"
He never dropped his phone.
Even while “fearing for his life” and shooting her with the other hand.

Young girls will watch a movie with girls or boys as leads, while boys only want to watch boys. We're taught to empathize with men, men don't seem to learn to empathize with women. That's why they can't understand how a woman might love a gay story. Sure it helps they're hot, but it's a love story.

Straight hockey podcast guys showing young men they can be vulnerable while watching Heated Rivalry, is my favourite new thing.

I think everyone’s obsession with Heated Rivalry is giving us the much needed hope in our bones to know fascism won’t win. Culturally, we don’t want it. What we want is diverse complicated, and nuanced, love & joy. That’s the antidote.

There is a reason almost every Canadian I have spoken to about Heated Rivalry mentions the demonstration of ongoing consent which has been a national conversation concerning hockey for years. Jacob Tierney and Rachel Reid were purposeful and it was important what they showed a country in their work.

starting to percolate on the Jane Austen-inspired Regency script I need to write in Jan. This year I'm going to lean hard into the romance & the JOY... I want the audience giggling & kicking their feet by the end :)

off to the archives today to do research for building a community mini-exhibit about a historic hockey arena. I swear i did not plan this-
