Makes sense. I've watched them kick Nazis out of their shows, so the feeling is mutual I'm sure.

My grandmother has been telling me stories of Stockport during the war, the victory gardens, and the 'mend and make do' attitudes, like the coiled heater that slowly ran out of wire as it was regularly repaired. I'm hoping it's her advice I get to use in this fight. #elbowsup #Canada

I grew up with a picture of a handsome white, longhaired bearded man on my wall that I assumed was Jesus. It was a black and white picture of my dad but to a kid, that made sense, all black and white stuff was very old.

I really appreciate that while the tariffs have been paused, the 'Buy Canadian' sentiment is going strong. #CanadianPetty #BuyCanadian #Canada

Learn all about the church’s role in the origin of the modern sanctuary movement on the latest @99pi.org. It’s one of my favorite episodes. Hear about brave and moral people.

Soccer stadium, large fabric flag of Mae Borowski from Night In The Woods, holding an axe and wearing team colors. There is text in the Night In The Woods title font on the right and left. It reads "From Stonewall a brick and Portland an Axe, Respect our pride or expect our wrath." It's cool

I don't think I need to clarify my stance on the topic but these soccer folks summed it up

There was only one swearing-in ceremony that I was interested in today and that was for our newest MLA!

@robmiyashiro.bsky.social is going to be an incredible representative for the people of Lethbridge.

Congratulations, Rob, and welcome to our team!

We failed to stop fascism's rise. Now it's dancing about on the White House lawn. I don't know how to fix all this but I do know that the shit we've been doing won't get us out of this one.

Just wrapped up another book, this one an audiobook and 'silly' fiction that turned out to be surprisingly good in its depth and themes.

Devolution: A Firsthand Account of the Rainier Sasquatch Massacre

Thanks for the light in dark times @maxbrooks.bsky.social

Thank you, I will happily add them to my 2025 reading list. And honestly... The hook of a serious Sasquatch story already has me seeking it out. I need a little more ridiculous ness in my life.

You should know that those have been a delight, which ignites a fierce kind of hope and joy. Even in an apocalyptic future, there will be fashionistas and freedom fighters who are often one and the same. So for that, thank you.

This style of book has quickly become a favorite of mine, with all those different narratives. Can you recommend any others @kaosdevice.bsky.social?

@margaret.bsky.social Are these missives from the future part of a book? I NEED MORE.

I found myself laughing out loud at the ads, and drawn in by the detailed world you were building. I was weighing which faction of dino warriors I would like to die in and realized I need more information.
