It's one of those "got busy and forgot to drink my coffee" kind of days 🙃

@sierkovitz.bsky.social have you run the numbers on how it is that 25% of my opponents cast Chandra and I've never seen one in a draft?

For #saucesunday one of my all time favs: Kaminari by Paolo made in Japan with Carolina reaper, malted rice & yuzu - on my Asian inspired pizza... ok with beets, olives, and eggplant too but base is miso gochuchang bbq pizza sauce. Big chunk of ginger was an accident but looking forward to it 😀

Hey Canadians, anyone know where we can watch last night's #SNL50 concert? Usually things on peacock end up on crave i think? but all the clips are giving serious fomo - where can we find this show? Is signing up for peacock the only way (is it even in Canada?)

If you think big pharma conspired with untold # of researchers on safety & effectiveness of vaccines, yet hacking public health funding & corporate oversight doesn’t incentivize harmful things, you might have a case of the vapours. Prescription: dunk your head in cold water 3x a week.

First of all this cake looks and sounds amazing. Second of all, I love how on bluesky we get to enjoy coincidences again! My partner made a (cinnamon bun) cardamom olive oil cake today for the first time, and I know this isn't in my timeline because of creepy search history spying 😀

If you see this, quote post with a picture of a beach from your gallery

On that note: Trans authors (I mean authors who are trans, NOT cis people who write about trans people), drop your book links here and I'll try to repost as many as I can throughout the day. Cis people: Repost trans authors' book links. Cis people who want to complain about being excluded: gtfo

Start your engines! Aetherdrift pre-release last night was the most 1 and 2 drops I've ever played in sealed. Also pictured is @lordhosk.bsky.social after being run over. P.S. climate follows, this is a @magic.wizards.com post - best card game ever.

You can't have a merit based system without DEI - that's the whole point. If we ever get to a merit based system that means systemic biases and discrimination were eliminated so DEI programs won't be needed. We don't live there but I sure hope we do before we figure out warp drives and transporters.

It’s VERY important that #Vancouver’s Downtown Business Association, who were originally against downtown bike-lanes, are now among their most vigourous supporters, because of the evidence that they are better for downtown business than any street parking they replaced. Bike-lanes mean business.

Now that's what I'm talking about

Either y'all think this is a good time to follow 🇨🇦 climate scientists for some mysterious reason 😉 ... or else I gained 500 followers since last night because everyone loved my photo of hot sauce on my dinner.

i am reminded that in moments of tyranny, our imagination ffor better & for black futures is the first thing to be seized. for my 5th (!) annual 28 films for the 28 days of black history month, i highlighted 28 black cinematic visions of resistance, childlike wonder, and unending imagination:

For my first #saucesunday post: black label Valentina which my family teases me for putting on anything not Mexican but I love it on Mediterranean dishes like this vegan scramble - recipe by @isachandra.bsky.social with some additions.

Wanted to buy a bag of lemons (from US) but switched to limes (from Mexico). Sorry friends we don't want to do this but we have to avoid your products while your president targets us with nonsensical tariffs. Canadians are polite but we'll defend ourselves... sadly harming both our economies 😞

Here is Trudeau’s response on tariffs. Go to 1:14:48 for the start of the speech. 💕🇨🇦 www.youtube.com/live/PnvyrKv...
