Of course it happens that I forgot to have my Outback on a trickle charger before going away on vacation so it was pretty much entirely dead when I needed it today... Good thing I have a booster pack. So now the car is sitting on the charger before it gets parked on the street for 6(!) weeks...
Dude has clearly never bought boots. Cheap boots last exactly as long as you'd expect cheap boots to last, and wreck your feet while wearing them. Expensive boots cost more, but they last significantly longer, and are far less hard on your feet. Anyone who has worn boots for a living knows this.
okay now he's gone too far
Just found out that the Canadian Football Hall of Fame is only open on Ticats game days. That is utterly disgraceful. I was hoping to attend when I was in Ontario next month but nope, apparently not...
Also I'm sorry for doing discourse, I try to avoid talking about Will Stancil usually, especially because he name searches himself constantly like a loser and will inevitably quote tweet me calling me a bully, but misrepresenting Terry Pratchett is more than I could stomach from him.
Honestly Will can only get away with this because Sir Terry Pratchett is no longer with this and I suspect Will knows this. If Terry Pratchett was alive to see this his very next novel would involve the Bloodless Quant Society as lead by Wont Pencil.
Hello. All I would like for my birthday today is this boosted everywhere and any help anyone can manage. Rent and bills forever. License renewal today costs $41 And i have to make moxie an appointment that will be at least $300. Second half of rent due in a week and a half. Anythinf helps!

Terry Pratchett was not merely a "fantasy writer" he was an acclaimed satirist known for studying politics and society and then using a fantasy setting as a means to provide commentary on the things around him. To ascribe his world to belonging to "fantasy logic" is extremely rude.
Will Stancil's insistance on calling Sir Terry Pratchett a "fantasy writer" in a generic way, and making it clear he hasn't read anything Discworld, is so extremely typical his attitude of learning exactly as much about a topic as he needs to make his point and then refusing to learn anything else.
This is rough but I think it talks about a lot of what is missing from the Cunningham/WNBA discourse. Namely, that trans people are not hypothetical thought experiments. They are real people who are being genocided by our government & any coverage that doesn't center that reality misses the mark.
the answer is always to disavow it

So, I'm finally in a place to order covers for my hearing aids. The question is, rhinestones, or enamel? 🤔 I think both look great, but I'm torn between the two. I mean, enamel is great, but rhinestones sparkle. What do y'all think?
I am currently grocery shopping apparently. I'm just waiting for the Save On delivery folx to get here with my groceries 😂
Y'know, there's really something to be said for ramen that is spicy enough out of the package that I don't have to add additional hot sauce.
Here I was thinking Stephen A was an asshole. Turns out he's also a transphobe. Just fuck the world today... I'm so tired of this shit.
There are no trans women in the WNBA. There are no trans women NCAA basketball players. Hell, who knows if there are even any trans girls playing HS basketball.
I don't usually send "per my previous email" emails, but when I do, then tend to immolate the recipient. Somebody at the CAF Pension Centre is likely going to burst into flames in the morning when they open my email because someone did not change my name on my pension account back in April. I'm mad.
wow, i was not expecting to be blocked by @kenjennings.bsky.social over this. We’ve previously interacted in friendly ways, so i reached out in good faith & not trying to drag him. I was giving the benefit of the doubt that maybe his transphobic behavior was unintended. really disappointing.

Neat little pickup for my RMC collection, solid brass bookends from I'm estimating the 1920s or 1930s. Got to make a connection with another ex-Cadet with the purchase, too.
I transitioned at 36. I'm 41 now. Transitioning has made my life worth living. Sure, I still have my challenges with health and mental health, but everything just seems... brighter. Lighter. Better. It's not too late. It's never too late.
If you have transitioned later in life, please know how deeply you are needed here. Your story is the exact proof someone else needs to finally take their first step.
I remember @melissagiragrant.com wrote a great piece about this a while back:
The Mothers Leading the Battle Against Trans Student Athletes
Their tactics mirror those employed by white mothers who fought school integration: disguising bigotry with pleas to protect children.

I was surprised at how prevalent it is was when I went back to AL to do some reporting. And the parents are driving it, not the kids. The people who can afford to do this are usually white
Ran the numbers for last month in terms of electricity costs vs projected fuel costs for my Ioniq 6 vs my Outback, and the results are rather... staggering. 6,135km driven, DC fast charger costs of $373.33. Projected fuel costs in the neighbourhood of $1,500... EV FTW? I'd say yes, for me at least.

So, I had a very odd thought when I was driving home to Regina on Friday. I was actually THANKFUL to be getting back to Saskatchewan from Alberta. I've never thought that before. But the current climate in Alberta feels so alien to me, it felt like a completely foreign place. Province of my birth...
Dear broken rib: Kindly fuck off already. I get it, you're broken, it hurts. I don't know what the fuck you want me to do about you... I'm already resting. Coughing, sneezing, and even breathing are NORMAL activities, not agonizing activities.
So, ummm, crowdsourcing ideas from the troops is *really* a sign things are going... well? edition.cnn.com/2026/08/03/p...
