The books were so good, I can't believe this is happening! In my country! Makes my little yuri on ice heart happy..

At the end of the day, don’t we all just want to read books in a cottage during a pouring rain in front of a crackling fire whilst enjoying a plate of emotional support cinnamon rolls?

Pauline Johnson was one of Canada's most beloved poets.
Her poems focused on her duel English-Mohawk heritage, which were reflected in her stage shows.
Celebrated for her work, she remains an important literary figure in our history.
This is her story.

A poster on a wall among bookshelves. It's in glorious color with pink peonies along the bottom. The text reads 'Unattended children will be given an enthusiastic explanation of intersectional feminism.'

My daughter is on a junket to New York with her online peeps. She sent me this poster from the Ripped Bodice:

venting: my masters historiography class is infuriating. We're not supposed to critique the papers of the old dead white dudes we read for discussion. Just reiterate and accept. So we show we understand their theory/approach but no more. It makes me want to poke myself in the eye.

I need to do a re-watch. It's SO stunning and good.

we’re back here again ❤️ haha

If you go private (ups/fedex etc) biz pays brokers fees, plus buyer then pays whatever tariff/fee at the door(usually but sometimes biz gets billed 🙃). However! CUSMA applies so no 35% Our product has a % of steel so that's another tariff on it.
No one has a straight answer for us, it's madness

Small 🍁 biz here: tariffs + no deminimus has been a disaster.
1)ship thru canada post, you must use the zonos app as a broker, nothing falls under CUSMA, the biz gets charged the 35% tariff plus processing etc (we just got crushed by this) but the US buyer gets no bill at the door. 1/2

As others, including Ireland, rush to help their citizens involved with the flotilla, here’s what Canada’s government told me of the six Canadians on board:

“The Government of Canada is not able to guarantee the safety of Canadian travelers, or to provide them with security and protection abroad.”

no yeah no bud

how i curse my enemies-

Your great grandmas family recipe is probably a 1932 Betty Crocker recipe.

I love when someone makes a bad take and the reylos come together, linking tails and becoming the rat king we've always been once more

ANYWAY I’m gonna spend the rest of the night leaving nice comments on fics possibly written by soon-to-be published authors 💕

i just think that all the fic-to-trad publishing girlies & enbies should get that bag. Soak'em babes. You are incredible authors & deserve to pay your rent with your creative work if you can.

neurodivergent people are the top-notch weirdos, & the world is better bc they're in it 💕

I worry for all the women who will be confused by this, and either refuse needed meds or seek (untested/dangerous) 'alternative' treatments bc of it.
Everything is gender and I hate it.

this is adorable!!🥰🥰🐶 Thank you for writing!

YouTube video by Charlie Angus MESSAGE TO MAGA AMBASSADOR PETE HOEKSTRA

Here's my message to MAGA ambassador Pete Hoekstra.
He gaslights our nation, blames Canadians for being mean to the US. He accuses of us being anti-American.
He says we are mean and nasty and doesn't like us saying Elbows Up.
Too bad Pete. We are proud anti-fascists

If you memorize a poem you will have it with you in an emergency.

You could add that to your list.

yikes on bikes

"once you use chatgpt, you don't want to think for yourself anymore" she said.

Same. But I'm 40+ & a 19th C historian. My teen calls me out all the time bc 'no one else says stuff like that mom'

Peak fic-reading set-up.

Welp. Time to reset the “Days since Canadian government gave a standing ovation to a Nazi” counter back to zero, I guess.

WTF, why are you giving a standing O to a far-right wing US podcaster?!!??
Stuff he spewed would fall under hate speech in Canada.
When we had a dude that posted a Transphobic sign in town, we shut that mf'er down bc we don't allow that garbage filth in Canada.
