Me all through my childhood, teens, twenties, and early 30s (even after experiencing trauma): I wouldn't wish death on anyone! Me, turning 40 this year: *glances around at the causes of huge human rights violations* I mean... I'm just saying... maybe it would be for the best?

Playing "is this depression or am I just tired?"

Does anyone have any tricks on how to cancel a flight on #AirCanada when their app and website just give errors? (Maybe due to overuse currently?). I've been on hold for almost 2 hours (which is understandable, I'm just wondering if there's an alternative)

Apparently #AirCanada doesn't know the difference between #ThunderBay and #Winnipeg. I was on a flight from Thunder Bay (not to or through Winnipeg) and it was cancelled (not AC's fault)... so they sent me vouchers for meals in Winnipeg to use in the next 72hrs.

Cancelled all Amazon-related subscriptions (KU, Prime, StackTV, Crunchyroll, and CityTV) and Netflix. Going to get direct from CityTV and CrunchyRoll, and just enrolled in Kobo Unlimited. We went from around $56/month to $30. Day two of the trade war and I'm saving money. #DivestFromTheUS

Fucking EH! 🇨🇦💪

same methods, different era

Has anyone used #Wellamoon or any other #SleepPatches ? Curious about your experience (I'm a chronic poor sleeper. Like... for decades. Have tried pretty much everything, including prescription meds). It either doesn't work or makes me groggy AF. I periodically like to try new things for funsies

#Ontario folks, is the "please vote for me" cheque per person or per household? I got mine today, and went to track my husband's but when he puts his info into the Check The Status website it says No Record Found (we file joint taxes but both pay taxes)

The Gov't of #Canada is not renewing #Abortion Care Canada's funding. ACC provides system navigation, travel support and funding for people seeking an abortion, and courses for professionals. This is a HUGE blow to #healthcare. ACC launched the following fund: abortioncarecanada.ca/the-autonomy...

I now have 3 friends who have changed their plans to go on a trip to the USA, to somewhere else (2 are going to Japan and 1 is going to Europe). It'll be interesting to see how the current government affects tourism.

Don't let Elon Musk interfere in our elections. Here is my letter to Elections Canada to protect our electoral process from interference by the X algorithm. www.charlieangus.ca/_files/ugd/5... If you are worried about Musk's extremism please send an email to: [email protected]

Choose 20 albums that have stayed with you or influenced you. One album per day for 20 days, in no particular order. No explanations, no reviews, just album covers. Day 2

I sometimes think about how in 2013 I could label and describe all of the Brodmann areas... and now I can't. Where did you go brain knowledge?

ICYMI: There are a lot of myths about dog populations in First Nations. There are also a lot of stars that are aligning as if now is the time to try something new. ricochet.media/indigenous/1... My latest for @ricochetmedia.bsky.social

I was going to go to the gym today and then it was -41 with the windchill this morning (it is currently -37 with it) so I'm just hibernating in the house doing a few productive things and watching Tracker.

I can no longer buy the bags of movie theater butter popcorn (Smartfood/ Great Value etc) because I'm incapable of rationing them and ate 3 bags in 2 days and my digestive system wasn't impressed.

A few years ago I started watching a show and then had to stop watching because it was too much. I still have nightmares from 2 scenes occasionally so that's fun (I don't even remember what the show was called but people who saw an original comic were killed)

Can a headline alone be eligible for a Pulitzer?

I just spit out my tea.

Marathon is a lovely place to live and work, in need of physicians! If you are a #Doctor who is licensed to work in #Ontario you should check this out. #MD #HealthCare

Officially 10 years since my last MS relapse. 9 years of stable MRIs <3 <3 #MSsucks #MultipleSclerosis #MRI

I'm concerned that the Harperman song is going to get a Pollivereman reboot...NZ, USA... hopefully not us. As humans why do we hate ourselves and each other?

Full moon last night (that we could see most of the day today!). I couldn't sleep well, woke up drenched in sweat and my dog insisted on an hour nap outside at 430am (I napped in the spare room with the window open a crack). It was minus 20. Hopefully sweating out all the bad.

I do feel like we forget that a mere 100 years ago 20% of children in America just fucking died.

We actually spell it Frozen Mehxico, eh?
