Once I saw this meme format I couldn't resist making a version about video editing 🤪

Big "don't siege Leningrad, take it immediately" energy here.

Yeah, it went away after a while, I assume in a Chrome update. Didn't have this problem in my Firefox work browser.

I had Google Docs do this to me a few months ago and I thought I was losing my mind. I need to edit this shit, and you want me to use arrow keys and guess?

I'm sure every culture has something like this because it is so basic.

My father loved these. I could never stomach them unless they were covered in gravy or broth.

Gotta say Doughboys. Eastern Canadian thing, mostly? But it's a disgusting flour "dumpling" you throw in a stew.

Naturally, a cornerstone of poor New Brunswick Sunday dinners.

Yes, Doug Ford, Quebec bought private jets — but not for the premier's travels | CBC News Last week, Ontario’s premier pointed to a fleet of Quebec government-owned planes as justification for having his own private aircraft. But Quebec’s premier has no such private plane. We got to the bo...

Doug Ford criticized Quebec for buying private jets.

Challenging the Pope: The Avignon Papacy

So today on Gone Medieval I have that rare thing - a medievalist emergency - wherein I had to explain the Avignon Papacy because a lot of people know the phrase *cough* the Trump administration *cough* but they don't actually know what it means. Don't let it be you.

Fascists and Nazis hate history, and historians; but understand the power of history. Thats why, across the world, they work so hard to control HOW we tell stories about the past, to drive out diverse critical voices and perspectives, to ensure a narrative that makes them look good.

Only now got around to checking the hockey scores from last night. Oiler win with no McDavid points. That's good!

Gave up three goals in the second period. That's bad!

I need to be at my desk a bit earlier than usual because I need to check on a thing.

Next week, I will need to be at my desk much earlier to do a thing.

At this rate, I will be starting my days at 4:00.

I don't resent anyone who made the decisions on those regulations, but god, it was miserable.

It was necessary, but also terrible. I lived alone in a small downtown apartment, and I didn't see my partner for months, couldn't dip to the pub to watch a game or have dinner with folks. My in-person time was sometimes walking with a friend - being careful to sit and walk an unusual distance away.
