I realized two things yesterday.
1. For years, I didn't care at all about anything associated with rockets and going to space.
2. That's not right. I had just gotten sick to death of shitty billionaires and their performative expressions of wealth.
I never stopped loving NASA and its mission.

A set of screenshots from DEEP SPACE NINE. An old Klingon throws his arms around Dax and shouts "Curzon, my beloved old friend!" Dax returns the hug and says "I'm Jadzia now." The Klingon grabs her shoulders, smiles, and says "Jadzia, my beloved old friend!"
Star Trek figured this out thirty years ago. It's not hard. Even an old, drunk Klingon got it.
Today is Transgender Day of Visibility.
The UCP has made Alberta one of the most hostile provinces in Canada for trans youth. That's not an accident โ it's a policy choice.
Trans kids are watching who shows up for them. ๐ณ๏ธโโง๏ธ
I want more of the classical, jazz and Indigenous Junos celebrations/ concerts next year and less of the letโs stan the prime minister and give awards to pop star Canadians whoโd rather be Americans and donโt even bother showing up.
Hell yeah Blue Jays walk off win on opening night!
Are the Leafs going to win their way out of a 1st round pick to prove some kind of point to themselves?
I'm going to be honest, walking in crummy weather sucks.
Walking past a very long line of vehicles makes it SO much easier.
Watching Talk Radio again. Eric Bogosian's movie from his play. Foreshadowing of social media. Instead of calling in, we type.

It's easy to reduce Band Of Horses to "The Funeral" or write them off as weak-sauce blog-rock from a time when indie was swerving toward the masses. But revisiting their debut 20 years later, I was stunned by how many great songs they strung together. ๐
Great tip, thank you!
Awesome! Same!
Trying to make this my main social app (instead of that other one, you know).

Sometimes a little different is a good thing. I'm excited for this one.
Go to your neighborhood pub. Trust me. Get a pint, get the wings.
5 lane road empty It's with a very heavy heart that we will be removing this pilot road, just not enough people driving on it. We encourage you to write an email to your councillor about future road opportunities. Please check our website for alternative car routes.
We're so sorry. Please check the city website for alternative car routes.
Canadians and more so Albertanโs have been sold the biggest lie on low taxes and frankly itโs getting tired and boring. Itโs time to have a real grown up conversation about what kind of community we want to live in and how much tax that could or should cost.
"The level of racism and hate that has been expressed has risen undoubtedly, and it is aligned with this premier's... attempt to pin all of her failings on newcomers to this province."
ABNDP's Rakhi Pancholi argues Premier Smith's referendums are designed to anger and distract.
Well, that ended up being fun! ๐ฅต
Hockey stress at work. Fun.
ATTENTION CANADA If* Canada loses to the US today we are NOT doing this cringy โat least I donโt have to live in AMERICAโ thing *I SAID IF (Photo collage featuring three fictional annoying Bluesky Canadian posts saying things like "at least I don't have to live under a Cheeto Mussolini In Chief" with a big red X over this type of post} (one last final reminder in red and white): TAKE THIS LOSER SHIT TO THE FACEBOOK COMMENTS OF A BRITTLESTAR POST WHERE IT BELONGS

$180 to go. No time to record something new, so hereโs my Raffi cover again. A little refresher on democracy for those who may have forgotten.
Brutal stuff. Take the rest of the week off.
Agreed! He deserves nothing less.
His voice was so unique and iconic for the fans who watched on tv.
