Baby’s favourite toy. 👿

Irises are up there on my list of favourite flowers.

This is what happens when we allow a genocidal, apartheid state to go unchecked in its madness. Will western leaders finally try to reign in their psychotic puppet? Probably not. We’re all doomed.

But what if I told you I’m sleepy 😴 Had a nice soft start to back to work - 7.5 hrs on Mon and tues. yesterday? lol 12.5. Today? lol 11.5 by the time I’m done. When can I retire??

Had a meeting out at point pleasant park. Bumped into the one and only @natetwn.bsky.social! So nice to meet you in real life!!

Wli' ajipuna @brysonthegaytive.bsky.social!! I hope you have a great birthday today! :) 🎉🎉

Suzanne asking excellent questions and Andy answering predictably “I didn’t learn anything”. Who voted for this clown? He’s got the worst vibes.

I'm quiet here a lot, even more so these days as we try to process my husband's 51 yo brother's sudden and terminal cancer diagnosis. He has exhausted all his ressources and needs help to pay some bills while he is hospitalized. Share/donate if you can txs. gofund.me/0ba81f7f

Day two of back to work. Yesterday was exhausting, but mostly in a good way. I was up 25 min before my alarm today which made for an extra long existential crisis in the shower. Nice.

Israel kidnapped 12 unarmed humanitarians who were trying to deliver food and baby formula to Gaza to break the siege and forced starvation of Palestinians.

Noticed some soot on the top of my hot water heater (oil heater) - I googled a bit and it could be as simple as the flue being clogged or partially clogged. But like, obviously I’m not an HVAC person soooo Anyone have recommendations for repair people for oil water heater?

It’s a WHAT plant???

Our mayor is…. Dumb.

Grandmothers Against Genocide are forming chapters in numerous communities. And you don't have to be a grandmother to stand up for what is right. www.torontotoday.ca/local/politi...

Tomorrow would be my parent’s 55th wedding anniversary. My sis and I offered dad a lobster dinner - but he asked to go to Ela! It’s where he and mom would go for all celebrations. And so, we shall. 😭

I have so much anxiety around going back to work Monday. I know I need it. But my work schedule doesn’t align at all with my dad’s life. And I work an hour away from him so if anything happened I couldn’t just GET THERE. Ugh.

One thing I wasn’t prepared for when I lost some weight was that my knees would hurt when I lay down because they have no chub to cushion them when they touch. And also that my back would actually hurt more because I have no ass to cushion my tailbone. :/

I enjoyed tracking Greta when she sailed across the Atlantic. Again we can track her progress to Gaza, expected arrival date 7 June (via @aljazeera.com ) freedomflotilla.org/ffc-tracker/

Please, I need another person who grew up in the 80s to say they had DPA (Daily physical activity) in elementary school and that their school pushed this song as a “warm up” or “cool down” song Every time I hear it I want to run in place 😭 youtu.be/nKhN1t_7PEY?...

If you’ve ever wondered about the impact a good teacher can have: a woman who my Nana taught 60+ years ago just told me how my Nana’s kindness when she was a child has stayed with her her whole life. ❤️ I come from good people.

But… what if I just cry all day? Because that’s what my heart and eyes have decided is the plan. 💔😞

I just want the person who dropped a microwave off for my dad months ago to know that he is still talking about it and still can’t believe someone “just did that out of the kindness of their heart”. 🥹 It’s so appreciated. Thank you again.
