If you do want to get into hockey, I recommend the women's league. You get the excitement of the game and way less of the toxic culture. Watch the gold medal game on Thursday! The Americans have so many great young players and will prob win (don't tell my fellow Canadians I said so 😬!)
Like Klee Benally has written: let’s turn settler colonialism into an event rather than a structure. Because events end.
People who were actually enslaved believed that chattel slavery would end one day.
I'm sorry but to me that suggests that you [who are not enslaved in 2026] can also imagine an end to the current horrors.
It's never too late to start wearing a mask.
It's never too late to stop using Chat GPT.
It's never too late to start supporting your community.
It's never too late to do better.
Within the Apple Podcasts app there is a transcript, but it looks like maybe not if played from the web
I'm with you on that island
Maybe someday I'll get to a point where the other types of meditating make sense. But for now I'm going to stick to the Wandering Mind meditation, as I'm calling it and be happy with my daydreams 4/4
This will get the brain into theta waves, which will help with sleep. Plus, it doesn't use up brain power by trying to focus, so the mind and body has more energy for healing.
I just can't do focused meditations and now it makes sense. They aren't restful for me and I need rest above all else 3/
But, when in a state of burn out/depression/and especially if sleep is poor, the best meditation is to just close your eyes and let your mind wander wherever it wants to go. Don't put any effort into what you think. 2/
I learned something cool last night from my TCM doctor, related to brain waves and meditation. It clicked for me and might be helpful for others:
Meditations where you try to empty your mind and those where you follow a guided meditation to think about something specific both have their place. 1/
Screenshot of a chat Molly Knight: ERNIE CLEMENT A blacked out commentator (since I don't have their permission to post their name):Wait what did Ernie do? I can't check MLB because I'm watching the Guards on delay. Me replying to the above comment: Doubled in 2 runs! 😍😍
A screenshot from the Long Game chat on August 2nd, 2024! We've long loved Ernie, even when the Jays were terrible 🥰
This play made my "continuously making mistakes but won't give up" heart so happy. I have watched it so many times for the joy it brings me 😄
Last night I had a dream someone dropped a huge spider into my bed. It was so vivid, I had to get out of bed and then it was hard to fall asleep again. But my cat, who never sleeps on me, curled up on my lower abdomen, as if she meant to protect me from dream spiders. And then I could sleep again ❤️
Yeah, when I saw that yesterday I thought to myself, no disabled people from the countries listed as 0 were consulted or thought of in the making of this list
Hello. I've never done a *sale* for my newsletter to the general public because I am bad at business. Anyway, I'm now offering 25% off an annual subscription to The Long Game so you can see what our community of kind-hearted baseball sickos is all about: <3 mollyknight.substack.com/p/flash-sale...
They think it's a harmless joke, but so many of us need people to mask. My dad starts radiation on Monday and can't get sick. My brother is insisting on flying home on the 1st. He won't mask and I really wish there was public pressure to guilt him to mask, rather than this pressure not to 😭😫😡
My fav memory from today will be my mom, dad, and I learning that Good King Wenceslas is a song with three parts and singing it together. Mom was the narrator, Dad was the king, and I was the page ❤️💚❤️
I heard the myrrh verse of We Three Kings for the first time today and I understand why most singers give it a skip.
"Myrrh is mine; its bitter perfume
breathes a life of gathering gloom;
sorrowing, sighing, bleeding, dying,
sealed in the stone-cold tomb"
😵💫😳🫠
It has reduced my pain and my sensitivity to things like light and sounds. It improved my mood and increased my energy envelope. I dilute mine from 50mg pills to save money, adjust my dose more easily (I go up by just 0.1mg at a time, and remove the filler that lots of people react negatively to
Glitching for me too 😖
Had a dream I was offered a free, all expenses paid, 4 month stay in Scotland to learn about my heritage. If only that one could come true!
I didn't realize it was on Netflix now! Thanks for the reminder/review -I'm going to watch it tomorrow 🙂
For the past 6 days I have been starting my day with a hot foot soak and let me tell you, it’s just lovely. Especially with the frigid winter temperatures we’ve been having
Congrats! 👏 🎉👏
Found out today that surgery couldn’t remove all of the cancer from my dad’s ear and he will need chemo or radiation, so the birthday mood for my mom’s 70th was a bit strange, but nice to have some normalcy and a loving meal together.
A plate of nine butter tarts.
I made my mom butter tarts for her birthday today and they are very tasty if I do say so myself!
It’s the worst! I’m feeling pretty good today and I have to keep reminding myself to sit and be calm because I vacuumed this morning and I don’t want to ruin my week by also walking to the community mailbox to check for mail 😩
Sorry you are back in a crash ☹️🫂
I’m holding a little Smarties cardboard box in my hand that has dark green embroidery thread wrapped around it. Another box is in my hand and a pile of green thread is blurred in the background
I’m using the little Halloween Smarties boxes to organize my embroidery thread and this is one of my favourite upcycle projects yet. Eat chocolate, then organize! A dream day for me 😄
The (possible) issue with the ads is that many who follow Ontario politics see this as part of Doug Ford's long term plan to become the Conservative leader of Canada and Prime Minister by "showing" that he'll stand up to Trump, even though he's basically Trump-lite and would not be good for Canada
