Who’s being sneaky now? 👀

Conservatives won't allow reporters to travel with Poilievre during upcoming election No recent precedent for a major party barring reporters from accompanying campaign #bcpoli #cdnpoli www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

My kid’s teachers are rock stars! Before break they had a whole discussion about what kinds of ads they are going to be seeing with an election coming up.

My husband had to take the day off to get to an appointment in the middle of the day. So we are going to Costco as a family. And now he has bought all the meat. Cheese is next.

Me: I should watch something light hearted & fun *puts on tarot review video ……… buys another deck ……… adds 4 things to my shopping list* I don’t know how sustainable this is either.

Woke up about 30 minutes before alarm was set to go off. So decided to scroll online and watch some videos. My headphone batteries died one minute before my alarm went off. Guess I’d better get up or something.

March 17, 2025 gratitude post - one of my kids was walking past the room I was sitting in and pointed out the beautiful sky & we just enjoyed it for a moment together

Hang on for the commentary after the speech. #cdnpoli www.youtube.com/watch?v=ReT2...

Pierre Polievre says he wants to cut the big polluter component of carbon pricing. Carney will keep it. Analysis shows industrial carbon pricing will do more than any other policy to cut emissions over the next 5 years. You don’t solve an economic crisis by pouring rocket fuel on a climate crisis.

Tell PM Carney to champion a People's Power Grid and deliver bold action on affordability, climate, and energy independence in the face of U.S. aggression. allofustogether.ca/peoples-powe...

I just realized that the popcorn I made and set aside for my lunch I left at home on my desk. I try to eat it in places when my kids aren't around since their orthodontic appliances don't allow it as a snack.

Love this picture for a very specific reason - it has alt text! I'd quoted this account previously pointing out the lack of alt text and now it's been included! Thank you very much!

If you have a cell phone, here are some things to keep in mind. - If you don't check your voicemail, either don't set up voicemail or include that in your voicemail greeting - If you don't want to talk while driving, put your phone in driving mode OR just don't answer the phone

I don't know why, but half the people walking up to our giant clear glass business door have been stopping and knocking it and waiting for us to wave at them before they come inside.

Is there anything stopping Trump from arresting Carney the second he steps foot on US soil? Besides international law and norms, neither of which Trump gives a shit about?

My co-worker emailed me from her work email, asking me to adjust one of my shifts, so she can take a day off. However, there are no days when she would be working between me seeing her email, and the day off she is asking about. What would she have done if I had an appointment I can't move?

I feel like there’s a word for people who use unlawful violence and kidnapping to spread fear among a civilian population for political purposes?

We have a dripping gutter that is keeping me awake. I don’t relish my options of hiring a company to fix it or climbing on the roof of my 3-story home to do it myself.

I’m watching Call the Midwife. It’s a British period drama set in a poor neighbourhood following a group of midwives & midwife nuns.

I, shamefully, have never been aware of Greenland’s flag until now. It is cool as hell.

I am racing through the heel flap on this knit sock because I’m even worse at counting rows of knit than I am at counting rows of crochet. If I do it fast enough then hopefully I won’t lose count and mess it up (even more than I’m messing up my first knit sock).

My kid was sick last night and I’m happy that I had a moment of peak parenting and made the jello he will want before I went to bed last night.

March 15, 2025 gratitude post - I got a lot of sleep last night - Kelly Hayes & Mariame Kaba wrote a really good book! I finished “Let this Radicalize You”today. The narrator Diana Blue was also very good.

Last night I got a really good night of sleep for the first time in a long time. And tonight my kid is sick, so I doubt I’ll be sleeping deeply or for very long.

“Tesla Crushed by an Olmec Head” is by Mexican artist Chavis Mármol. It features a 9-ton replica of an Olmec head resting on a Tesla Model 3 & represents the clash between ancient culture & modern technology, critiquing consumerism & capitalism.  #ArtIsResistance

One of the most remarkable objects in #Pompeii is a marble table support with P. Casca Longus inscribed on it. Longus was the 1st assassin to stab Julius Caesar on the #IdesOfMarch (today in 44 BC). On his death Longus’ possessions were auctioned & this table was bought by a Pompeian

We all need to think about whether we are going to accept our sons and daughters dying in a war against our ALLIES so Tr*mp can play Lebensraum. The military needs to think about where their oath lies. Russia has lost over 100,000 of her sons for Putin's war against Ukraine. Tr*mp will do worse.

Well shit! I did the thing where I commented really early on a large creator’s video & now my notifications are going off.

And this illustrates why vehicle insurance rates in Surrey are so high. Lots of spread out roads designed for speed leads to more crashes and serious injuries. You can fix a lot of fender dings with what it takes to pay for 1 seriously injured person.

"Safety and being able to get around are not at odds with another. They're both mutually compatible goals." "What it does require is for us to collectively say … our lives are worth more than being able to gun it at every opportunity." www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Unrivaled announced today Rose BC forward Angel Reese was named the 2025 Defensive Player of the Year. Reese earned the honor after receiving the most combined weighted votes from Unrivaled players and coaches, as well as a national panel of sportswriters and broadcasters. @winsidr.com

It reminds me of something I heard (can’t remember exactly where) about toxic nationalism in that it’s always striving for power among other countries and therefore leads to competition, antagonism, and conflict.

Today is a fresh day, with no mistakes in it yet. I will not let the perfect be the enemy of the good.

That is both messed up and disgraceful! You can’t just delete history! Arlington National Cemetery has removed information about prominent Black, Hispanic, and female service members, as well as topics such as the Civil War, from its website.
