Don't miss Escapade Online this weekend, Thu 7 Aug-Sun 9 Aug, where we discuss its endless angst, fever-dream aesthetic and fascinating character dynamics: escapadecon.carrd.co
HADESTOWN!! If that's the level of performance energy you get on a movie screen, how amazing must that show be live??

Oh hey, netbook I haven't turned on since 2013 and still runs Windows XP. What might be on you that I've completely forgotten about but should either transfer to an external HD or delete before I take you to the computer shop for recycling?
Downside to going to a show in Stratford on Sunday night: all the chocolate shops close early. 😢
This survey is biased as HELL, but it does include text boxes where you can write in what you really feel.
Sonja Boon@storiedselves.bsky.social · 2w agoCanadian arts and culture folks: the federal government has launched a (methodologically flawed) survey on "the Cultural Sector's readiness for Artificial Intelligence". If you're ready to resist or refuse genAI, here's your chance to let them know. pch.research-recherche.ca/f/s.aspx?lan...
My internet's fixed!!! 🎉🥳🙌 ...gonna go see all the terrible takes people had about the Lestat finale. 👀
People who never pay their invoices when issued & then are all righteous indignation/OH YEAH PROVE IT when I tell them there's an outstanding balance on their account are today's reason why I'm developing an ulcer. (Not really. Not as far as I know. But if an ulcer happens, I won't be surprised. )
When the city trimmed the ditches yesterday, per the ISP technician who came out to investigate why my internet is down, they also trimmed the cable that delivers the internet to my house. When will they have it repaired? TUESDAY.
But what Canada really needs is to build more pipelines, right @mark-carney.bsky.social ?

You'd think it was a foggy morning, but nope. Picture taken five minutes ago while the air quality's a big red 10 from wildfire smoke.
Spent a lovely midday on the back porch! No appearance from the under-porch groundhog today. A week ago that corn was less than half as tall; I wonder how much it grew since I've been out here?
A safer Ontario means Doug Ford in prison.
Tom Flood@tomflood.bsky.social · last mo.We are living in a dystopian state in Ontario. Look at these ads that our province is running. people don't have anywhere to go anymore - and if you aren't a moment or two away from being in the same spot, count yourself fucking lucky.
Heads up to anyone attending #Sunfest this weekend in #ldnont: people who want you to elect assholes in the upcoming municipal election are roving the event handing out water bottles. 🧵
Jayne L.@serricoj.bsky.social · 4w agoBelow is a screenshot from the website for the Concerned Parents Association of London & Area. That's the London in Ontario, Canada. Who can find at least three things wrong with the picture this (ostensibly) Canadian organization decided to use on their website? #ldnont

The strangest thing happened today. We went to the uninhabited island of Lunga, west of Mull, to look at the puffins nesting there. I was just taking photos when I felt a thump as something landed quite heavily in my head. It was a puffin! It stayed for about a minute before flying off.

Think of the children's impressionable minds blah blah whatever, but what even is the POINT of playing Eminem and Rihanna's 'Love the Way You Lie' if you're gonna Radio Edit out the "If she ever tries to fuckin leave again" part???
Just dropped 10 degrees in half an hour! Thanks, thunder storm. (It's supposed to be back up around 30 by 9pm.)
The groundhog that lives under my back porch trundled his way around the corner of the house, expecting the porch to be empty and his route to his hole to be unobstructed, but surprise! I was sitting out there with a book! We were both a little startled.
I don't want to go to work today. It's a cloudy, grey, rainy day and I want to go back to bed.
Congratulations to the underrated drama The Knick!
An hour ago I was suddenly possessed--and I use that word intentionally--to empty out and wipe down my fridge while it's largely empty pending tomorrow's grocery run. Inexplicably compelled to complete a task that's been backburned in my brain for months! And now it's done! Wtf!
