Lol I guess can’t log in cus I haven’t done my taxes in that long

To spend less time online I’ve been relearning some language stuff and my tiktok algorithm thinks I should be learning Spanish as well. Perhaps I’m being persuaded to do so.

trying to log into my CRA account is a major test of strength

Always makes my day when I get shoutouts like this from the youth and families I help boost. I always wish them the best and tell them we’re all proud of them for their perseverance.

Don’t be sending me your best wishes on Christmas. Grow up.

bought some movies and was showing them to my mom. I got to one and said “I like this one, it makes me cry” and my mom just went “ok.”

One more thing. For YEARS I (and others) thought King was Blackfoot because of Green Grass, Running Water and his other writings around that time. And he was so heavily embedded in Treaty 7 at that time. I don't know if I missed it or he wasn't saying at the time that he claimed Cherokee.

do i crab rave bc thomas king finally admitted that he isn't a fucking ndn, a thing ndns have known for literally decades

Alice is the one who taught me the power, joys, nuances and challenges of online disability communities--at a time when my own disability was making me more housebound.

I remain forever grateful to her, for showing me what could be possible, but also what remains to be done.

had a weird dream where I was on a boat but it was a Jurassic park situation. No one would get off the boat, but the Clipse were there so that was fun. You can tell what media I’ve been passively consuming while researching things.

worked outside for like an hour and started developing a callous on my hand. I am truly a lily handed scholar.

accidentally stayed up all night reading court documents

Jurassic world rebirth is tonally weird, even more so than the other movies in the franchise

mopped the floors in the middle of the night to avoid editing
