A heart comprised of small flowers and butterflies on a solid red background to symbolize World Kindness Day.

It’s World Kindness Day! There’s a lot of heavy darkness out there. Take some time and brighten your community with an act of kindness, if only for today.

How to spot performative action: Writer leaves Twitter/X due to Nazi problem. Comes to BlueSky to promote their writing on Substack, which has a Nazi problem, which they refuse to leave.

I don't like Sprint weekends. At all. Ever. #F1 #BrazilGP #BrazilianGP

Global stock markets fall sharply over AI bubble fears Drop in US, Asia and Europe follows warning from bank bosses that market correction could lie ahead

Take note. This is the beginning of the end, and I, for one, cannot wait for this whole big pile of AI slop and garbage to collapse with the density of a dying star. When Burry shorts a stock, pay attention. www.theguardian.com/business/202...

2025 Blue Jays are my champions regardless of the outcome.

A photo of a recently cleared storm drain that had been blocked by fallen leaves.

It’s not too late to check your storm drains! I checked the one outside my flat only to find it under a 7” thick mat of decomposing leaf litter. Big rains coming to #HRM #Halifax #NovaScotia

My life has literally become sleep, work, watch baseball in whatever order I can manage. Work and baseball are scheduled - sleep will have to fit in the margins. Go #BlueJays #WorldSeries

I have a very bad feeling about this...

A grey blue washed image of a bearded young ish white guy looking into the mirror all serious with his palm pressed against it. A serif font title reads: DID I JUST ARGUE WITH A JOKE? A semi opaque navy snoot near the bottom bears the bluesky logo and the text PART OF A BLUESKY EDUCATIONAL SERIES

The Golden Russet! They have terrible shelf-life so you've got to find them and eat them shortly after harvest.

It's slightly weird by also refreshing that I check every day to see if @chuckwendig.bsky.social (a favourite author) has reviewed my favourite apple! (He hasn't yet; some similar apples, even some related apples, but not my fav). In the meantime, you can find his reviews over on his feed.

The TLDR on this is that it's not. "...colchicine did not improve functional capacity, respiratory function, or inflammatory markers."

Proposed parade route if Blue Jays win

I’m a child of the 70s. This hits home. Every third kid in ‘79 was dressed as a KISS member for Halloween. It was awesome.

An operator in an excavator assists in planting a young oak tree along side a city street. The oak tree’s leaves have already turned colour as it’s autumn.

Happy day! The city is planing a pretty little oak tree outside my bedroom window. It’ll be a lovely shade tree someday. #halifax #hrm #NorthEndHalifax

Someone needs to start a Facebook group that spots “pumpkins” in Chicago. “Watch for pumpkins at the corner of S. Ashland and W. 53rd”

Canada has a plain language standard!! CAN-ASC-3.1:2025

If you're in Nova Scotia and you've been waiting for your flu and Covid vaccines, bookings are now open and there's lots of availability. Over 75s can book their RSV at the same time. novascotia.flow.canimmunize.ca/en/booking/c... Vaccines save lives.

I had the rare opportunity to sleep in this morning. I forgot to turn off my alarm. I'm still mad about it. Anyway, this song is helping me get through all the thanksgiving prep and cooking. Enjoy!

It is a beautiful work of art. It’s not a print, however. Roussel carves into wood plates then paints them. That said, I encourage everyone with an interest to try printmaking!

All the people fawning over AI must never have read Dr. Seuss. If they had, they'd recognize that it's all just digital thneeds made by Once-lers.

Nope. I’ve read the books, seen all the shows & movies and played the games. (Outstanding among then is Girl with All the Gifts - the book - by M. R. Carey).
