I just finished "Lucifer’s Hammer" by Larry Niven and Jerry Pournelle. Didn’t like it much. Check out my review below. #scifi #bookreview 💙📚 app.thestorygraph.com/reviews/517b...

Un grand plaisir de participer à cette émission en compagnie de Fannie Lafontaine. C'est le moment de parler de paix et refuser la logique de haine.

Feb. 23, 1985: Patrick Roy made his NHL debut when he replaced Canadiens' starting goalie Doug Soetaert in the third period.

I didn’t pick a good time to read two sci-fi novels about the end of the world…. I think I’ll read a bunch of funny, action packed comics after that, to cleanse my palate.

Incroyable. Selon cette ministre, le problème est que @mediapart.fr ait dévoilé ce qui s’est passé. Pas que des enfants aient été maltraités pendant des années. Ahurissant. En gros : Mediapart : « Ils tapaient sur des mômes ! » Borne : « Rapporteurs ! » 😒 #Betharram

Go Canada 🇨🇦🏒 ici.radio-canada.ca/sports/21423...?

"La Fayette we are here!" Podcast doesn’t have an X account anymore. #quitX

So now Bond won’t get his gadgets delivered, or if he does he’ll get cheap knockoffs.

Apple’s Murderbot series starts streaming in May

Enfin ! Un projet structurant pour le Québec et l’Ontario. Ça va bénéficier au pays tout entier par contrecoup économique. Espérons que ça se fasse cette fois ! #TGV

Venez réfléchir avec nous à ce sujet éminemment d'actualité !

Good update, but I think someone overlooked the French translation for the "Search post" option 😅 GapzOcj doesn’t mean anything lol. Try "Rechercher" or "Chercher dans les posts"

My late, lovely grandmother talks about the status of women in her memoirs, which I've started to translate. Women's emancipation is so recent, it's always hard to believe. Jacqueline: "Great news for us women: since 1944 we've had the right to vote. It's a veritable mini-revolution, because..."

I just started the second season of "Severance". It’s such a great show! #scifi #Severance

This morning in Montreal #snow #snowstorm #Canada

Never had a Kindle, never will. But this article could be useful to those who’d like to jump ship.

We're having quite the snowstorm today in Montreal! We might get 50cm (20"). Here's a Timelapse of my backyard during the afternoon. And it's still coming down! Part 1/2 #snowstorm #Montreal #Canada

Way to go @thestorygraph.com! #booksky #downwithAmazon www.theguardian.com/books/2025/f...

For those who haven’t do so yet, I do recommend that you read "Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow". An original and enjoyable take on this often overlooked character. @tomking.bsky.social’s story is very good and @bilquis.bsky.social’s art is nothing short of amazing. app.thestorygraph.com/reviews/b58c...

Really enjoyable and original episode. Give it a listen!

Tis the season! Here's our 2025 eligibility post. www.hugogirlpodcast.com/occasional-b...

The news is so darn depressing these days. I think I’ll read and post more about good stuff: sci-fi, comics, movies, photography, F1, etc. #trumpfatigue

Such a superb move, and right here in Montreal! #F1. That race was bonkers.

Check out our latest podcast episode, in which we assess the cracking sci-fi that is... Wallace & Gromit! 101sf.blogspot.com/2025/02/crac...

Snowstorm in Montreal! #Canada

My fellow Canadians, stop buying from Amazon, Best Buy or other big American retailers when you have Canadian or non-American options. Products and tools? Canadian Tire or your local hardware store. Books? Indigo, Renaud-Bray, local bookstores Everyday clothing? Mark’s, Decathlon, Uniqlo.

C ’est la guerre? Pensez à votre libraire. Il a des armes!

I’m currently reading "Lucifer’s Hammer" by Niven & Pournelle. This book is soooo 1970s. Still not sure if I like it or not, it’s a bit uneven and confusing at times. We'll see, I’m only 140 pages in. #scifi #booksky app.thestorygraph.com/books/e20a06...

As a Photomator and Pixelmator user, I’m really curious as to what will come out of this acquisition. A new Aperture? Or a "Pro" mode in Photos? We’ll see!

What is currently happening in the USA is nothing short of a coup. #doge #Trump #Musk #USA A USAID executive testifies: "It’s a coup d’état" www.mediapart.fr/journal/inte...

Important announcement 📢 My friends, after a period of reflection, I’ve decided to change the frequency of the podcast. Instead of releasing an episode every month, I will now release one every two months.

Now is the time to nominate your favourite works, magazines and podcasts! #scifi #worldcon
