This is us. - C'est nous youtu.be/X7ndXo5k3P0

So here's a thing that happens. Every few days, when walking along the street, certain people who cross paths with my eldest son will say, "Fucking ginger." or similar. This is utterly incomprehensible to me. Part of me wishes to disbelieve it because it's so absurd. But I believe my son.

This is an incredible list!!!!!

It's still snowing...

My friend, Susan Carson, just drew my attention to this. It's crazy... intimidating really. And should be taken with a big grain of salt since these numbers change hourly. But it definitely means someone out there is buying my book. 😅 😁.

@karenswallowprior.bsky.social I'm halfway through On Reading Well, and the chapter on Courage has left me in tears. I think it's the first time I've been given words about "the courage to overcome a corrupt conscience". Some of us have been doing courageous work and been called sinful heretics.

Politics not left, not right, but forward. If you think Canada needs some fresh options this next election, consider the Canadian Future Party. I'm the interim pres. of the Guelph EDA, and we're looking for new members and folks to help build a new vision for this country. Message me!

When you feel overwhelmed in exposing truth, remember this: people are sacred, created in the image of God. Systems are not. They are only worth the people in them and the people they serve. And people are to be treated, whether one or many, the way Jesus Christ treated people.

There are only 2 kinds of people in the world: - Those born in Ontario. - Those who hate Swiss Chalet sauce.

I hope y'all have a partner that you can giggle with during sex. Cause last night unintended things happened which made me laugh, and the sheer wholesomeness of NAKED GIGGLING with the person I feel safest with made me laugh even more. And then the awkward shimmy and cleanup only made it funnier.

There was a time, years ago, when I thought Elon Musk was super cool. Like a real life Tony Stark. Lex Luthor seems a more appropriate comparison now.

Alright, here are some real 2025 goals, in no order: - Start my tattoo sleeve. - Try out some nail polish and find some colours/brands I like. - Spend more time naked. - Publish another book. - Pay off a lot of debt. - Celebrate our 20th anniversary.

Happy Winter Solstice, friends.

Shared some big news over on Insta and FB, our Little Miss's adoption was finalized today and we can now share her name and face with the world.

While making ricotta pastry yesterday for Finnish joulutorttu I eyeballed a quantity of butter that proved to be within 2g of the target quantity. Follow me for more baking flexes.

I'm in my Finnish Mummo (grandmother) era.

Hey, this incredible human (my progeny) has a final project about the social impact of Table-top Role-playing games like Dungeons & Dragons. Would you mind filling out her form? It's a 2-minute commitment. #TTRPG Link in the next post. (1/2)

Sometimes the only filter we have for what is good and what is not, is what our body is telling us. And sometimes the only authority we have to trust what our body is telling us, is hope.

@katinoxford.bsky.social glad you're here. Hope it's safer for your soul.

So my biggest complaint with my Bluesky feed so far is the amount of nasty Leftist noise. I'm glad to not have nasty Far Right noise but I don't need any kind of nastiness in my feed. It seems basically I don't need America in my feed. 🙏🤦❤️

Every time you leave your place of comfort and enter into the suffering of another, you are living and loving as God. A healing touch to the least, is a healing touch to the Highest.

Finnish Lapland and Northern Norway. The far tip of the world.

Wow. Here is one to brighten up your morning. The first images of the restored interior of Notre Dame cathedral. Breathtaking. In just five years France did it
