New Brunswick is being "the area between Maine and NS"-ed again (our stop signs have both stop and arrêt on them)

Fun fact: Quebec is the only place in the world that uses "arrêt" (the French word for "stop) on their stop signs. Even France, where French is invented, uses the English word "stop" on stop signs. So yeah, not happening for Trump. Good luck, babe!

trying to add "no bilingual packaging" to a trade deal with Canada at the 11th hour is hilarious, it's like trying to add "and ban handguns" to the US side of the agreement

Not sure American folks understand what the Tromp admin did, so bear with me here: If any country came to the U.S. & said you can’t make trade deals without our approval and also you can’t protect English as a language anymore, we think it’s inconvenient, how would you respond? Would ANGER be fair?

Been thinking about my closet recently and I'm like... dang I wish I bought more from Aritiza when I first started shopping there. They still have decent stuff... but they also used to have a lot of good stuff

What a long week this Monday has been

Millennial checking in: my friends still have house parties. Not every weekend, but they happen and go LATE

kids today are literally confused about whether "partying" was real or an urban legend

I'm still having issues with my hand.. current stage is I am waiting for a referral to go through. Starting to wonder if I should start learning to do non-computer hobbies with my non dominant hand

Approximately 1 out of 3 women will experience sexual and/or physical abuse in their lifetime and you still have men claiming that allegations must be false because there are too many of them. It’s actually the opposite. The vast majority allegations will never become public

some a y’all need to learn how to unfollow or block somebody and literally never think about them again. 10/10 can recommend

We had a party last night, one of the co-hosts made a game where people had to complete tasks. Some of the tasks involved posting things (memes, selfies, group pics) in a group chat that you got added to when you arrived to the party. It was so fun, and a good way to get people to take pics

I am off today, all next week and New Brunswick day. So naturally yesterday had to be THE most chaotic day in some time, because we do want to add an extra challenge to being able to disconnect from work.

Just guy a French ad on an (English) podcast... at least it's not the local non French ads I've been getting lately

It is nice realizing a tea you like is single origin because if the place you got it from stops selling it, you can still find it elsewhere

Hey, fellas, before you write that white hot take about how rape is such a tricky thing and, I mean, who can really say what happened and, you know, maybe we should not be too judgmental, I'd like to remind you that instead you can simply shut the fuck up.

My favourite thing about the Canadian response to "the 51st state" imperialist threats from the USA is that the majority of it is entirely grassroots. Yes, Quebec and Ontario may have banned US booze (I truly cannot remember) but the rest of us? We're voluntarily doing it out of spite.

Canada's boycott of California wine is causing devastating harm to winegrowers. I'm urging the Canadian government to recognize that California doesn’t agree with these tariff wars, to lift these restrictions, and increase consumer options to strengthen both our economies.

The weather forecast is telling me it is time to start making cold brew tea again

Older lady peeped the rainbow flag on my bike, asked in a thick Russian accent “It’s your Pride?” She told me her youngest grandchild is “not she berry or he berry but no berry.” I said “Nonbinary?” She got so excited. Yes! Yes! And “Is a secret, but they are my“ *looks around, whispers* “favorite.”

I am listening to the latest season of CBC's Uncover podcast - about an AI company used in criminal investigations. They mention the guy has a voice that is "unmistakably Atlantic Canadian" so I looked them up Anyways turns out the company is based in Fredericton, should be an interesting listen???

I finished Widow's Bay and dang that is a good show. I do not usually watch any horror but it was worth the scary parts

I'm having some terrible allergies, to the point that I have lost my voice. With that and my hand issues it feels like the universe is trying to silence me 😂

I have not been posting so much because I was busy for a bit but also my thumb is still messed up so... when I am done work I am not really feeling like typing. So that's fun! I am still alive though

Just used the self booking feature for an x-ray and bloodwork and honestly, what a good addition. I don't think it's gonna be ideal for everyone BUT as someone who loves to not make phone calls and is picky about appointment times I think it's A+

I see that all trending topics on this site are related to FFXIV... which means you should join us. The free trial is even getting expanded, perfect time!

Holy hell I am in some pain. Packing/unpacking and using a laptop for a week really did not do me any favours

i will never tire of seeing a musician’s first-watch of prince’s performance of my guitar gently weeps

I am home from my work trip to Halifax. funniest part is how the weather was great on the weekends and awful during the week when my co-workers were there. Bonus was the guy who lives in Alberta who would say "it snowed at my house today" whenever someone complained about the cold.

Today I went into an art store unsupervised so you know I have a whole pile of new paint
