I started watching Mythic Quest a week ago. Just watched S1E05 - A Dark Quiet Death - and Omg. So good. Stand alone episode and amazing! Cristin Milioti and Jake Johnson are incredible.

I saw an ad today that said, "Hey Canada, everything you order is shipped from a warehouse in Toronto!" Ummm, yeah, you storing the stuff you shipped in isn't going to be good enough.

While Canada is being patriotic, don't let people pointing out our problems discourage you. Canada has lots of issues the need to be addressed. We can't solve everything all at once, and if we try we won't solve anything. Do what you can. Anything more than yesterday is good. That's all we need.

March Madness time! For me that means I'm doing a blow out sale of old originals. First Time Ever! Savings up to 40% on selected originals for the month of March. earthskyart.ca/product-cate... #art #painting #bsnm

I have had to clean up my follows a bit. I agree with the accounts I am unfollowing (largely) but there is only so much bad news I can absorb without it negatively affecting me.

Looking at Instagram and I just saw and ad talking about Black Friday!

OHHH CANADA 🇨🇦 Congrats Team Canada on winning the inaugural #4Nations 🏆

Sid. Enough said. #4Nations

Terrible scene in Montreal, where as soon as the 3-on-3 overtime reached five minutes all the players got too tired to keep going. Fans are begging for a shootout but the players have brought out little cots and are curled up for naps. The NHL warned us this would happen. We should have listened.

Mandarin oranges travel all the way from Morocco to Calgary, Alberta, Canada, a distance of 8400+km taking who knows how long, and they still start going bad within 3 days after I buy them.

Discussed in far too much detail with @camgordon.bsky.social here --> www.torontomike.com/2021/03/toro...

We pride ourselves on being the youngest band on the heritage rock circuit

I get the impression that for the Canucks it was a case of, "addition by subtraction". Miller was the best player in that trade but getting rid of him made the rest of the team a lot better.

Reposting me let's your followers know you like alternative rock

Personally, I think this game should be 1-1 #Flames #NHLFlames #CofRed

I think we use that $1.3 billion allocated to border security (that was already promised) and use it to keep American hand guns from crossing the border to our cities.

I remember when Google had a, "don't be evil" ethos. Did they drop it when they went public? Or was it after shareholders demanded that they squeeze even more profits. I guess it doesn't really matter when, but they have become evil.

I shake my head when I see people driving a jacked up 4x4 pick-up and swerving in a parking lot to avoid the speed bumps.

Congrats! A lot has happened in 5 years, in your world and the world. What a long, strange trip indeed. <insert Grateful Dead - Truckin' here>

As a defenceman there's a reason Tyson Barrie hasn't drawn in for a long time, but he is a maestro as a powerplay specialist. #Flames tie the game at 1 mid-way through the second period.

Are they also investigating whether Microsoft and OpenAI obtained their own data in an unauthorized manner?

What are the Bluesky preferred tags for the NHL Calgary Flames? Is there a concensus? #Flames #NHLFlames #NHL

#NHLFlames are looking good, they just don't have the skill to get one past Logan Thompson so far. They are working hard and getting chances. Hopefully it can pay off soon.

Last summer I brought some stuff my parents had been keeping in their house. I had this in the early 80s. I played it but not a lot because it ate 9v batteries, and it takes 2 at a time. But today I pulled it out of its box for the first time in 40 years, put in batteries and it still works!

Also, every time I post about ES, someone asks, so I'll just put it here: Steamdeck is playable, but not quite fully verified.

user: Help, I need this specific set of data ASAP. me, doing it immediately: Here it is! (5 days pass) user: I just looked at it and I need to change it a bit. me (thinking): I'll get the fixed in a minute (I thought it was urgent?)

Depending on who/what you follow, this may have slipped your mind but remember, the laws of the USA do not govern the internet outside of the USA. Just because the USA bans an app it does not stop in the rest of the world.

Some people REALLY love meetings. In a "quick" update on what each person is working on, some people are done in a minute while other go into the minutiae of their processes. Stop trying to look busy. You are boring everyone and running the meeting long will not make you a hero.
