In related news, I am so not used to standing for a three-hour shift at anything anymore, but I am excellent at getting things from high shelves and carrying bins of potatoes for the other, (mostly) old lady volunteers.

I started a rewatch of 30 Rock this week, which apparently is almost 20 years old? That can't be right.

Between this and finding out that I could listen to this full Angstones situation (which I only had on cassette) for the first time in decades, it's been a very Ottawa-in-the-90s week. (I was seeking out the tribute to the Laff starting at 27:50ish specifically.)

Woke up thinking there was a cicada in my ear, but it's just my ear ringing from a total sinus meltdown after my bedtime Benadryl wore off.

If you're only following this "debate" through popular media you probably have the impression that studies on youth gender medicine are roughly split between benefits and harms.
Nope! Nearly every study finds benefits. The "debate" is just a bunch of people going, "Those don't count."

The publisher has cut their costs by outsourcing to this company, the company has cut their costs by using AI/low-paid staff instead of paying for a proper job, while I’ve spent hours & hours fixing the manuscript, so all the extra labour from cost-costing has fallen on me, the unremunerated author

Anyway, some elderly British people are in town to do some theatre or something.

One of my small-town Ontario grandmas hoarded Country Life magazines because I'm pretty sure she thought she was somehow related to the British gentry/nobility* and needed to keep up on property values in the Cotswolds from her 1950s bungalow in the Ottawa Valley.
