A show like "Is It Cake?" but it's "Is It A Box of Danish Butter Cookies?" but it's always sewing supplies, except once in a while it's cake.

@imaginecanada.bsky.social has a guide to (most of) the main federal parties' stances on support for the nonprofit sector. The CPC did not respond to their questions. #CdnPoli #Canada imaginecanada.ca/en/360/feder...

A long-time friend who's taken a hard right turn in recent years started an argument with me on Facebook. Two messages in I had to tell him that if he wanted a debate, he could do it respectfully & in good faith or not at all. It's been two days of crickets, so I guess that's his answer.

This, from @abenanav.bsky.social is a convincing diagnosis of our political ills, and his prescription — a green transition and wide-scale redistribution — is right on, too. Must read.

There's a mating pair of robins who have chosen my backyard as the place to start their family. The male spends his days patrolling the yard against interlopers, scurrying across the lawn to check out anything that might be suspicious. Great job, little buddy.

I actually think I'd be coping with things better if I could still find caraway rye bread in a grocery store.

The Conservative Party, in response to Canadian women finding Poilievre creepy and off-putting: "OK, so hear me out - what if Andrew Scheer invaded your personal space, called you 'man,' and yelled about meth?"

The dog has decided to stop me from working or moving, so I guess it's a good time to fire up a 2.5 hour YouTube video on my work computer.

Introducing bike lanes is about creating transportation choice. When you give people safe choices, they can choose a bike for some trips, reducing congestion and reducing conflict between users. Leaders don’t need more evidence, we need to speak better to the public feeling of scarcity.

The snow is melting and my plant babies are getting ready for their big debut. This year I'm growing three kinds of hot peppers, five kinds of heirloom tomatoes, three varieties of heirloom beans, summer & winter savoury because a I'm a Nova Scotia girl, "Rainbow" kale because it's pretty.

And, it is not feasible to move main thoroughfare bike lanes to lesser roads. #bikeTO #onpoli #topoli #walkto www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

If you want to understand the current moment, you NEED to peek into the world of conspiracy theorists: how a grain of truth gets spun into a fantastical belief system; how grifters take advantage of it; how tough it can be to disabuse people of lies that make their lives actively worse.
