There is currently too much federal and provincial talk on my feed. Bring back the local Edmonton discourse for us #yegcc nerds.

I don't think I can listen in. I'm too angry about this. You don't entertain fascists. (And it doesn't matter who the NPR or C-SPAN hosts are, the "question" (aka violent threat) is coming from a fascist.) By running this, the CBC is asking to be defunded and is acting as a stool pigeon.

First time making pork spring rolls and it was pretty okay!

Night bus vibes 🚌✨

Some people love telling poor folks they shouldn’t buy nice things. No jewelry, no fresh shoes, no cars that make them happy. “Rich people don’t waste money like that!” they say. But the truth? They just don’t know what waste looks like when it’s wearing a suit.

Albertans are slowly waking up to the depths of the scandal enveloping the UCP government. A lot of folks are wondering how to explain what's going on to people who haven't been tuning in. Here's the what, so what now what, and what's next of the situation. 🧵

Taking suggestions for new arc card stickers. If I end up making your suggestion, you get a free sticker from me ✌️ #yegtransit

I just found out that technically I've been making a brand mistake at work due to a thing that my boss and predecessors did not bother adhering to. It's not a huge mistake, but it means I'm not following our client's brand and I wanted to punch my boss in the face while my heartrate rose.

any time I see this boomer ass cartoon font I know I'm about to read the most deeply unfunny thing possible

Is anyone else in YEG feeling funny in the head, maybe from the impending weather change? I was expecting achy joints soon, but I'm surprisingly dizzy.

I’m so delighted with my magpie ARC card sticker designed by @itsmeserenat.bsky.social ! Supporting local artists and adorning yourself with magpies is really the most Edmonton thing you can do. #YEG #TeamMagpie

I think it's safe to say I have the coolest Arc Card in all of Edmonton with the @itsmeserenat.bsky.social and @etriders.bsky.social accessories

I just want to give a big eff you to Imposter Syndrome today. It's so rude that I am feeling it despite clearly knowing that my role at work is irreplaceable and my bosses would Panic™ if I utter a word about leaving.

Israel has violated the ceasefire in Gaza 266 times since it came into effect on January 19, killing at least 132 people, Palestinian security sources have told Al Jazeera. 🔴 LIVE updates: aje.io/dh48s1

LISTEN TO INDIGENOUS PEOPLES. You want safety? A functioning social and political system? Air, water, and soil that isn't poisoned? A future for your descendants? We survived apocalypses. Stop trying to bury us and get on board with Indigenous sovereignty.

No flags here, thank you.

One of my pet peeves as an environmental journalist is when people go on and on about how "toxic" our environment is. Bitch, compared to what? 100 years ago women were literally eating radium (radioactive substance) for work Lead was in everything So was arsenic /1

I can't believe I'm suppose to wash, feed, and rest this meat sack daily.

I'm tired, please let me stop working for the week.

If I came up with a mascot for ETS, what's the probability that the city/ETS would buy it from me?

cops stationed in grocery stores fill me with true, unbridled rage

Hot take of the night: the surge of Canadian Nationalism feels like a lot, and seeing the flag just reminds me of Con*ys and our genoc*dal history that so many people still ignore.

One day I'd like a mug that says "I cry on company time" in my work cubicle.

Basic necessities of life should not be a product only available to those who can afford them.

SIXTEEN CARRIAGES DRIVIN' AWAY

Feeling rage (at the Premier), might channel it into a sticker.

My webstore is live with the Arc Card stickers and all of my latest duck jokes as well. serenatang.bigcartel.com

Hey, you. That's right, you there. Thanks for being around, I'm glad I know you.

Some days it’s okay to skip the morning bike commute. Multimodal is sexy y’all.

I'm hearing very disturbing news from inside Children Services, that our provincial government is looking at cleaving off 18-22yr from Children Services. Throwing vulnerable youth into another Ministry would be a disaster, youth need the critical protective factors associated with CFS. #abpoli

No work is without hardships, but I remind myself that I have come so far in a career that I never thought was possible. I did it for 10 yr old me who thought doodling was just a hobby, and for terrified 18 yr old me asking to switch into Arts when I broke down during Science midterms.

USA: Los Angeles Chargers coach Jim Harbaugh reminds people COVID isn’t a cold. "The extent of damage to our bodies in the long-term is still unknown,” he stated "Last year, the disease caused approximately 59,000 deaths and more than 500,000 hospitalizations in the U.S." Source: archive.md/knpq5

I'm low-key obsessed with my new stickers for #yegtransit arc cards. For the bus stop stickers, you can even write your favourite routes into the boxes.
