Hello followers! Are you in the right place? I post about cemeteries, folklore, Newfoundland, crafting, D&D, and other assorted (spooky) foolishness. I’m pro science, pro 2SLGBTQ+, pro climate change is real and anti racism, transphobia, homophobia, and simping for billionaires.

If Candlemas Day be bright and fine
The worst of the winter is left behind.
If Candlemas Day be rough and glum
The worst of the winter is yet to come.
Considering we're having a blizzard right now, I guess we have a long winter to get through.

Two that haunt me. Sappho's Cafe where I got a veggie hummus wrap with sprouts almost every day I worked. And Folly that named all their pizzas after Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles characters. Both closed somewhere between 2010 and 2012 and I still think of them regularly

please tell me about your favorite lost restaurant (closed for at least 5 years, like I really want you to go back into the vault), why you loved it and what you ate there

I call on @anitaoakvilleeast.bsky.social and @mark-carney.bsky.social to officially condemn the reckless and illegal attacks launched by the US against Venezuela.
Under Trump, the former US is a depraved Fascist menace, which threatens all of us. The world needs to act to contain their aggression.

Choosing to focus, on hearing the news of Rob Reiner's passing, to remember this moment where he was so overcome with joy and laughter that he - the director of the movie - was one of many people banished from the set in order to finish filming.
TIL nearly all of the "Miracle Max" scene from Princess Bride was improvised by Billy Crystal, and it took three ten hour days to shoot, because they couldn't get through his improv without everyone (cast and crew) laughing so hard it ruined the audio.
Mandy Patinkin bruised a rib holding it in.

So sad to hear about Rob and Michelle Reiner. Dug out my copy of Princess Bride to watch in their honour.

see scrooge was a damaged person who had been twisted by a shitty life with a glimmer of good in him. thus his reclamation, per GoCP. there is nothing in a modern technoghoul to redeem, no hardship and no past decency. they are the self-made monsters, ignorance and want made flesh
'A Christmas Carol' was correct that only a supernatural power could force a rich guy to examine his lifetime of inhuman behavior, what it got wrong was thinking that would change him in any way

Motherfuckers, we basically beat *cigarettes*. Young people may not remember the total ubiquity of cigarettes in public life, but it was there. People still smoke, but it's *worlds apart*. Never cede ground on hating. We might not be able to destroy AI, but we can shame it back to obscurity.
“AI is clearly sticking around so you have to get used to it” wrong. I don’t have to get used to shit. I am a practiced hater and I can keep this going for decades if I am required to

I'm done with this government and any government that thinks using AI is permissible. Everything in this report is now called into question and we paid $1.6 million dollars for this crap.
Newspaper The Independent in Newfoundland and Labrador is reporting that another major government-commissioned policy report contains false citations likely generated by artificial intelligence. theindependent.ca/news/lji/maj...
