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!

A small black kitten with a white patch on her chest sitting on the arm of a chair

A black kitten lying on her back, with all four limbs going in different directions

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

Many of us at my job have had an argument with one coworker about leaving the tv in the lunch room tuned to the news. He just doesn’t get that most of us don’t consider catching out of context tidbits of breaking news while refilling your coffee the same as staying informed

Another Chloe blouse done! I got this gorgeous cotton in Arles last year and kept changing my mind about what to make with it, but this is the right choice. The buttons are handmade locally, and I won them as part of a door prize at a Frocktails a couple of weeks ago #garmentsewing

I live in Mount Pleasant and work a bit east of Brentwood, so I've been watching all those towers go up. Part of me would like a shorter commute, the larger part of me values my quality of life outside of work and living in a walkable neighbourhood way too much to even consider it...

I had no idea how he was actually going to manage to get out of the car, and somehow the answer was even more delightful than I could have imagined

A black cat curled up on a black chair, occupying as much of the seat as possible

Cats always make working from home just that little bit more challenging

I was completely torn when the final vote was between orcas and totem poles, but the orca is a worthy winner

I think I like Halloween more than he does, but he was a good sport about it a couple of years ago 🦇

He's a real trendsetter!

A close up of a black cat with cobwebs stuck to his face

Happy #caturday from Baerd, who has managed to find every single cobweb on the patio!

Thank you! Now the next step is making another one out of this gorgeous fabric from France, though it’s always nerve wracking to cut into precious fabric

Greetings from Vancouver, Canada!

Quick version of the Chloe blouse from Silversaga patterns in a rayon that has been in my stash for an eternity. Next step is cutting into precious fabric that I got in France last year! #GarmentSewing #VancouverSews
