Storm in the morning light
I feel, no more can I say
Frozen to myself
I got nobody on my side
And surely that ain't right

Surely that ain't right

I just started watching #Pluribus, and after three episodes, the show certainly is thought-provoking. An virus has made everyone around Carol perfectly happy, while she remains immune, exposing the absurdities of this artificially cheerful world. #television 🇨🇦

The glorious and highly designed garden pathways that lead to the incredible pagoda on the mountain top... There are statues and carvings and fountains and Buddhas hidden amongst the trees and luscious plants and ferns...

Un nouveau rapport de Statistique Canada indique que la probabilité de vivre de l'insécurité alimentaire a augmenté pour tous les groupes sociodémographiques et économiques analysés entre 2019 et 2023, et la plupart de ces hausses sont « significatives ». ici.radio-canada.ca/rci/fr/nouve...
Un revenu d’emploi stable ne protège plus contre la faim | RCI
Être salarié n’est plus un gage de protection contre l’insécurité alimentaire, selon Statistique Canada. Cette tendance n'étonne pas les organismes d'aide.

Big thank you for the short course on the Visual History of European Alchemy. It is fascinating material and the lecturer Sergei Zotov was very knowledgeable!

Carney is throwing money at the war machine; we're fighting for a Canadian Green New Deal. Who's going to turn down cheaper bills for heat, AC, & their commute in favour of sucking up to weapons contractors?

With all the AI slop being added to software and everything, it turns out that Clippy wasn't so bad after all… I take back all those bad things that I said about him.

I started the 3rd season of Spartacus House of Ashur and one of the characters has a bronze runner in his home. It’s set in Capua and I love these little historical details. All from the Naples Archaeological Museum, a must see when in town! The Farnese Hercules is amazing as are the bronze horses!

A few photos from #Iceland for my #eastcoastkin.

These #scapes are from a trip last winter. Each time I visit Iceland I am always stunned by its beauty.

And its -2 in Akureyri and -20 where I live this morning. Perhaps I should get back to northern Iceland to warm up :)

I am heading to the National Gallery this morning to see this show:

Winter Count: Embracing the Cold - reflects on winter’s significant impact across diverse cultures and artistic expressions.

And since it is snowing and -16, I decided to warm up my kitchen by baking bread. Recipe in alt! ❤️
a loaf of cinnamon and raisin bread. I usually start the dough while I am making dinner. The dough sits overnight. Recipe: 375g flour, 270g water, 7.5g salt, 2.5 g of yeast. I then add about half a cup of raisins and a teaspoon of cinnamon. I add the flour and whisk in the yeast. Then I add the water, mix well, cover and leave for a hour or so. Then I add the salt. I then put it covered in the fridge overnight. The last thing I do before bed is fold in the raisins and the cinnamon. Next morning I put my dutch oven into a 475 stove for 30 minutes to warm up the dutch oven. Then 35 minutes covered in the dutch oven followed by 10 minutes uncovered for the crust. mmmmmm
