Truly. I first read it years ago and come back to it often. Thanks for resurfacing it for me!

Ok, I work for small charity and all I’m hearing these days is how AI is unavoidable; get on board or get run over. I believe in meaningful work for humans. Is it possible to resist adoption of AI at your company? Anybody doing it? How?

It's going to be another sultry few days in #Ottawa. Why not get out on the water to beat the heat? This post points you to beaches, marinas, kayaking spots and waterfront cafes all over Southeastern Ontario. Make the most of summer while it lasts! #sponsored ottawaroadtrips.com/2025/07/31/g...
I have outdoor pigs. They regularly knock me down. They really should pay. I’m all in on pig revenge. Pigvenge.
Susan Wismer shares her poem ‘On Distance’ with us today, along with some of her favourite poets, the other art forms that inspire her, and some of the best advice she’s received as a writer. Thanks Susan!

Wonderful news, Ian! Can’t wait to read it!
Here's my poem from the latest issue of Concision. One especially wonderful thing about this beautiful mag is that it includes reflection on the poem as well as book recs. Sarah Yu-Mei Tsiang features in both of mine. Thanks to EIC @haleylasche.bsky.social ! www.concisionpoetry.com/francesboyle
Canada: “Deep in the recesses of my brain, a tiny red hot little flame began to grow…”
Why does the scene from A Christmas Story where Ralphie fights the bully keep coming to my mind?

Dogs in the snow-nosed yards.
I hope the toddlers are also in camo.
We’re still nice though!
Shaindel, Canadians are scared. We’re facing an unprovoked attack from the country that was once our closest ally. We obviously know not everybody there voted for this guy, but somebody did and now, as the much smaller nation, we’re going to be dragged down with you. That’s what you’re seeing.
What is time anyway?
There’s a lovely version of A Child’s Christmas with Denholm Eliiott — a BBC production I think. We watch it every year.
Lovely, and thanks for a positive perspective on fruit flies. * * *

Creek with still water, skiff of snow in the tall weeds, dark clouds.
Quiet day at the creek.
