The playgrounds in montreal are split into age groups more than our home playgrounds, which means monkey bars tall enough for pull-ups!

Oh hey look, it’s me! (Centre left, silver cap, clear goggles.)

qathet open water swimmers complete marathon

Going to a friend’s house tonight: Will: let’s take a bottle of wine and some sodas for the kids. Me: and me. Sinclair: AND ME. Me: you *are* one of the kids. Sinclair: oh yeeeeahh

Will normally (begrudgingly) cuts my hair but while we’re in montreal i’ve booked in with one of the many, many (😭) queer barbers

We’re finally in Montreal and not only are we right by a municipal pool, the municipal pool has lane swimming twice a day and it’s FREE.

lol anyone who‘s been in an abusive relationship or knows someone in an abusive relationship knows the answer is yes. Many of us have been socially conditioned to normalize the situation & there’s often external pressure to do so, and to forgive.

Rep. Max Miller: "My former wife has claimed that during a custody exchange at my home that day, I assaulted her…If I had assaulted her, would she have offered to cook me dinner six days later?"

Con: we are supposed to be in Toronto watching the blue jays & seeing friends/family & we are instead grounded in Vancouver Pro: got to try one of Earnest’s august flavours (toasted marshmallow 👍).

we’ve been in a customer service line for two hours lol oh man. sorry 2 the blue jays but I will not be seeing your game tomorrow I do not think

people are so much nicer to cute petite blonde children than children who do not fit that description & i find it a bit weird

First flight left almost two hours late. Second flight, did they hold it?? No, no. They left early! Just in time for us to see it departing after sprinting to the gate

It wouldn’t be an air Canada flight if they didn’t cancel it at least one time

Interesting. I’ve tracked Angelo’s career ever since coming across him rocking a red MAGA hat in 2017. My profile of him from 2024: thetyee.ca/News/2024/12...

Friend & i got to the shore after a pretty chill swim; realized her swim buoy had escaped & was heading out to sea; booked it out ~227m off shore to retrieve it 😅😅

was overwhelmed when I left the house, so I am walking the 30 mins to the beach in nothing but a bathing suit. Was halfway down the street before I realized I had not put on more clothes

Dirtbag hack: if you’re voyaging to a place with a washer & dryer & you’ve run out of time you can simply pack some dirty clothes

ok that's all my food thoughts for now, thank you for listening

i have been making my smores ice cream with a chocolate base, toasted marshmallows, and chocolate-enrobed gf graham crackers, BUT i think i'm going to try a version for my birthday where the ice cream base is milk that's been steeped with graham crackers.

what can i say? i love a brassica

i'm not going to have a chance to eat this really nice local cabbage before we go on vacation & i might pack it in my carry-on

I made those, like, date nut "bliss" ball things bc i used to eat them on long bike rides & swimming for four hours gave me a craving (ajklsdfjal). You know who went wild for them? The children. The frickin children! The children crave fibre & unrefined sugars

“Are therapists to blame for adult children cutting off their parents??” Personally I’d say my parent was to blame. But I can give you my parent’s contact info if you want to be lovebombed, manipulated, & eventually watch your self-esteem fade away before your very eyes for yourself?

watched a reel where an influencer said she had "really intrusive thoughts today" as she was pouring herself a coffee. & see, my brain was like "hit yourself with the carafe? smash smash?" and then she said she wanted to rearrange her furniture.

There's little I enjoy more than getting a really good pitch

it should be illegal to push back to school ads & content before august 25th

After swimming my marathon swim I am taking a week off wearing my Garmin watch as it is currently feeling like overbearing exercise surveillance

A few times recently people have asked me why (or for "my why") re: doing a marathon swim & it is in these moments where I wonder if I am just a terribly, overly literal person, because the answer was sort of just... to see if I could? Or, like, because I decided to? 😬

Someone posted an AI poster to the local message board that had an eagle rising from the ashes. One of these days I’m going to cringe so hard I pull a muscle

Dear god dont make me need to read the fucking odyssey to catch up on intrigue 😭
