Ack! The PPP showed up at my door! Dude looked like a utilities scam, so I was caught off guard. Nuns trained me to be polite, even against my will. So, I’ll take this conversation as a personal win: PPP: Hi, I’m here with the PPP Me (interrupting): Ewwwwwwww! No thank you! #Elxn2025 #cdnpoli

Remember when they raise their prices. Remember when they lay you off. Remember when they relocate.

Daughter (6-yo): I saved four grapes for you, but then you took too long so I ate them. #ParentingLOL #Parenting #KidsSky

11-year-old-son: D&D is soooooooo fun!!! Me: I think this is the happiest day of your Dad’s life. #D&D #DnD #DungeonsAndDragons #TTRPG #ParentingLOL #Parenting

Today was the day my 80-something Dad regrets using military style training to raise kids. Also, I may have traumatized some geriatric care nurses, though I bet they’re made of tough stuff. #LTC #LongTermCare #Nurses #AgingParents #MilitaryBratz

Dear gas stations. In most weather, but especially in this weather (gestures vaguely at Southern Ontario storm) I will absolutely drive 31 kilometres to the nearest full service station. #gas #fuel #cars #bringbackfullservice

Help: looking for ideas on how to celebrate #SpringEquinox #AlbanEilir with kids. We’ve done seedlings, will do egg decorating. What else? Kids are 11, 6 and 6 #witchsky

You know you’re having an f*ed up dream when it’s got a sound track and that sound track is Leonard Cohen’s You Want It Darker. #Dreams #Witchsky #LeonardCohen

Got the 11-year old a phone for their birthday. Joke’s on him, I know how to use the phone feature to make his phone ring… early in the morning. For example I rang repeatedly) him at 7:00 am this school holiday to remind him he promised to make bread. #ParentingLoL #meanmom

6 yo twins playing legos Twin 2: Pretend that I love you with all my heart and can never leave you because one time when I was a baby you saved me when my parents died. Twin 1: I’m a tree witch! I’m a tree witch. Ree tee tee witch! #ParentingLOL #Witchsky

#InternationalWomensDay2025 #InternationalWomensDay1939 It’s hard to feel celebratory this year. Yes, women have made huge progress, but we are also backsliding losing critical hard won rights. What world are we leaving our daughters? There are more of us. We could vote them out.

What do you do when you finish a book but you aren’t ready to let it go and therefore can’t move on to the next one? #booksky

When you are walking in this not-quite-spring weather do you step on the edges of the ice slabs to break them up so they will melt faster and bring spring faster? No? Just me then? Hmmmm. #winter #spring #Farch #Witchsky #seasons

Sanity check please: do people eat cucumber boiled and or thoroughly steamed? #foodsky #food #foodie #vegansky Help me, my mum still uses her 1970s era cookbooks.

Woke up this morning clutching my phone like a teddy bear as though if I was nice enough to it then it would be kind to me. It wasn't. Alarms still sounded too early. #Adulting

Elon says he'll only go on Jon Stewart's show if it's unedited. Jon Stewart agrees. Awkwardly backs out

6 yo: I want a new forehead, this one hurts! #ParentingLOL

JD Vance watching the Oscars. “No one is thanking me!”

I have an irrational fear of most insects. Tonight I dreamt a small, fuzzy almost cartoon like bee landed on me and patiently did not sting me while I freaked out to such an extent that I ripped the CPAP mask off my face and tore it apart at the joints. #StupidHuman #SaveTheBees

HERO vs ZERO I'm in a state of shock & still trying to process yesterday's shameful, traitorous debacle in the WH: A DAY THAT WILL LIVE IN INFAMY. Our standing in the world has plummeted overnight, but the repercussions will be felt forevermore. #SlavaUkraini🇺🇦 #ShameOnUS🇺🇸

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F. 18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it. We made this website to tell our story: 18f.org

Rules for garlic: Fresh garlic cloves = always, 1 clove = 1 bulb (unless you can find the good home grown stuff) Jarlic = never, better to leave it out. Garlic powder = ok, if it’s all you have and fresh is not available. Garlic salt = no! No! No! And, no! #cooking #kitchenwitch #Witchsky

My mother packs my kids school lunches. Which is all kinds of awesome and she deserves all the praise. But, I have one quibble. How is it they be getting Cadbury mini eggs?! #ParentingLOL #Parents

1/2 New-to-me scam: Guy texts me with a saccharine sweet message. I tell him wrong number. He apologizes profusely then starts to try to flirt with me. Which is so far kinda fun given I keep subtly switching genders on him. He’s phishing for information about me. I’m giving him none. #PhoneScam

After playing a fictional member of the Resistance a long time ago, I never could have imagined it ever happening in real life, but here we are.
