first signs of life in my planters! Crocus, maybe, or frittilaria. Nice to have an early sign of spring.

Elections in Ontario are always so disappointing, what are people thinking? At least we kept @chrisgloverndp.bsky.social . Good luck and thank you, Chris!

“My vote doesn’t matter.” In 2022, 56.5% of Ontarians didn’t vote. Doug Ford won a majority because 18% of Ontarians voted PC. “I don’t know what the issues are.” Talk to people you trust to find out. “It doesn’t matter who wins.” It matters very much to someone you care about. #OnPoli

I know we’re all used to getting our voter card before voting, but this is a snap election and you may not get it in time! You don’t need it. Go vote! #topoli #onpoli

Ontario votes this Thursday, February 27th. Wasting taxpayer money to tear out safe bike lanes is reckless and dangerous. On election day, send a strong message: no city has ever solved congestion by prioritizing cars—bike lanes should remain a municipal decision.

@kjeanveau.bsky.social my grocery box couldn't make it through the snow today, but the tuna helper I've had in the cabinet since the time you mentioned it came in clutch. Definitely will be a permanent backup plan.

Here's the speech if you haven't heard it. 13 minutes of your time. Share it with your American friends and neighbours, because they won't see it otherwise. Circulate it in Mexico and Denmark, France and the UK, Panama and Germany, Poland and Estonia, and especially -- especially -- Ukraine.

My Easter (?) cactus hasn't bloomed since I got it 7ish years ago, but this winter it has one perfect blossom. Thanks, friend ❤️

again, they have no authority to offer this and you should NOT accept the offer expecting it to be adhered to

In contemplating which Ontario party to send my $200 bribe from Dougie to, it doesn't escape my notice that the liberals don't even have anyone listed for my riding on their webpage. I like @chrisgloverndp.bsky.social so this isn't an issue exactly, but OLP needs to get it together.

This is weird and feels like a great way to get people's phone numbers. Just follow your follower list, bud.

Went to the Pacita Abad exhibit after work with @shighfi.bsky.social - really inspiring work, could have gotten lost in the details for hours

Fred Rogers does seem to have been a genuinely decent human being and also he would probably be the first to tell you not to idolize him, but to find in yourself what is beautiful and special and hold that up to the light so that you can see it clearly, and can everyone else.
