I don’t think I’ve ever owned a pair of jeans with pockets that could hold a paperback (women’s clothing is a whole other rant), but being able to easily throw a book into a purse is the same idea, and a lot of trade paperbacks are just a bit too big for that

I had no idea that it was still published until 2016, I had assumed it ended way before that! It lived firmly in childhood memories of checking out toys and building a wish list

There are no clothing machines.

All garments are handmade.

ALL of them.

There is no T-shirt machine. Every $5 shirt I’ve ever purchased was sewn together by a human being who is an expert sewist.

Just thought I’d mention that before tomorrow.

Sewing with a kitten in the house can be challenging, but Morgana is slowly learning to be a good little feline supervisor

The cycle of Taskmaster 1. Who are these people, there’s no way they’ll be as good as the last lot 2. Omg, I love all of them 3. How is it over already, I don’t want to say goodbye 4. Next cast is announced, who are these people, etc.

Photos last year from Juno, Auschwitz, Hiroshima, Vietnam, Cambodia, and Bosnia.

Remembering, mourning, and hoping this century does not fall victim to the same needless horrors as the last one.

DNA scientist James Watson has a remarkably long history of sexist, racist public comments “People say it would be terrible if we made all girls pretty,” he said in 2003. “I think it would be great.”

Hey folks, as news of Watson's demise spreads, please don't set aside his weighty legacy of misogyny and racism. He was truly among the worst of us. www.vox.com/2019/1/15/18...

This is delightful!

...its wild we have a Labour Dispute Mediator in our province popular enough to have Fan Art.

(WITH FRAYING PATIENCE) No thanks, I don’t want to see Marilyn Monroe in Game Of Thrones, because it ended several years ago and she died a very long time before that.

YouTube video by CBC British Columbia The ins and outs of the Vancouver Canadians’ sushi race

The Mariners have the salmon run and I would like to humbly suggest the Bluejays borrow the Vancouver Canadians’ sushi race

Absolutely, and if there had been a hotel that met my needs and was within what insurance would pay for that would’ve been my preference, but there wasn’t.

I wound up in an Airbnb for a couple of weeks last year after a pipe burst and flooded my condo, and it mostly was to have a kitchen and not be forced to eat out every single meal until I could move back home.

A framed copy of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms.

This is my antifa membership card.

And my shoulders have done the same to me today…

What a thread.

Count down to “Young men keep writing things on ammo and shooting people, are women not making enough room for men in the crafting space?”

The voids are learning to coexist, and possibly plotting against me…

I’m on staycation this week and had been considering a couple of days in Victoria…that’s why hotel availability and prices were even worse than usual!

Two black cats curled up as mirror images of the other. One is a large adult cat, the other is a tiny kitten

A slightly belated intro to Morgana! I’ve had her for a week now and she’s made herself completely at home, though Baerd is still a bit unsure about the intruder. Like most 9 week old kittens, she has zero chill, and I think she’s going to wind up being the one in charge!

Having grown up in White Rock in the 80s and 90s, it still blows my mind that it has a skyline now

I live in a 3 storey condo building on a quiet side street that was built in the 70s, and I love it. It’s green and peaceful, but mere steps to the transit and shopping of a major road. Allowing up to 6 floors wouldn’t be a significant change, and would open this up to more people

BBC News captures Doctor Who himself Sylvester McCoy at the Trump protest seemingly unaware of who they're interviewing.

This is as dystopian a move as possible right now

I’m doing that next week and it can’t get here soon enough

I can just see how that would go, given what you’ve said about the group. “What, this? Oh, I always travel with my own dining table. And of course that wasn’t a receipt from IKEA for this exact table, dated earlier today, that fell out of my purse when I was getting my passport out.”

Harry Potter™: A Forbidden Forest Experience coming this fall to Stanley Park September 3 2025 – The Vancouver Park Board is pleased to announce that a new special event is coming to Stanley Park this fall. For the first time in Canada, Harry Potter Fans™ of all ages will have an opportunity to explore a spellbinding illuminated trail inspired by the iconic Forbidden Forest.

I support a democratically elected park board. Part of democracy is ensuring that the government’s decisions match the city’s values.

Vancouver is a city for all its people. Trans people included. I am calling on the Park Board to rethink this event and make this right.

Margaret Atwood is 🔥 #abpoli #Alberta
