My fibre people are getting ready to knit like the wind for the Ravellenic Games, a crafting event which runs concurrently with (but does not legally infringe upon the copyright of) the #Olympics

The next two weeks are going to be an intense time in my communities.

My hockey fam is going to be self-soothing the lack of PWHL games by waking up before 6am to watch unevenly matched national teams and repeatedly try to sort out why everyone has the wrong teammates. #MilanoCortina2026

More things I love about women's hockey: nothing says professional sports like 18,000 people singing along to a 90s power ballad about the struggle for Irish independence #pwhl

TIL there is a critical mass of tenth grade trombones in a high school band at which point you're contractually obligated to perform Sweet Caroline

Dear body,
The scapula is not a storage locker for muscle tension. Please attend to this overreach of the lease agreement.

But am I crazy to think that in retrospect we were maybe using it to describe... autistic traits? Like, restricted food and clothing choices? Literal thinking? That stuff? I mean, if so, I think it's a good thing that we now have a different paradigm, but still... interesting.

Thinking a lot recently about how we don't really talk about people being neurotic anymore. Sure, in part it's a term that got a lot of stigma attached to it, and shedding it means we can't use it to just dismiss people anymore.

My barber, who I haven't seen in 6 mos, who is also an amazing colourist, looking at my splotchy fading manic panic: so... you coloured your hair?

Thing that make most people's brains chant "the cow as white as milk, the cape as red as blood, the hair as yellow as corn, the slipper as pure as gold": Broadway playlist.

Thing that makes my brain do the same: writing a professional bio

Trying to explain to my 12yo that in the 90s we willingly danced to a song that was just a guy mumbling "Around the world" over and over for 11 minutes

Yesterday at the school bus stop in the dense soupy fog I got cut off with "I know what pathetic fallacy is mom" because apparently I have the narrative skills of an ENG 203 syllabus

Today in phrases that have probably never been said before: "I don't know, do we have any evidence for the fickleness of deer gods?" #religiousprofessionalsbelike
