For no reason:

There was a time I was seeking higher-paying jobs in public service, media, etc. I had a lot of nibbles, and at Christmas 2023, was offered a government job.

I was overcome with panic as I considered taking it. It was what I wanted. I could "feel" more important, make a bit more.
I can’t with this weird “back of the head soul patch.”

Is this so he can claim he’s not bald? I’ve just never seen a man shave his head and leave a weird small patch like this.

Aww. When Eugene Levy fulfills his dream of going to the big formal dancing ball in Vienna, Austria, when he’s talking to the “teens” dancing in the debutante ball, he includes a gay male couple.

I suspect that’s a nod of inclusion for his son but I love it. (In the Reluctant Traveller.)

Dunno how I had never heard Sinead O’Connor’s cover of All Apologies but I’m glad I sorted that out.

Between Link being banned and Sarah Kendzior being suspended, the people on here who have been speaking truth to power are getting erased...and that does not bode well for us all.
In a rare case of Substack notes usefulness, I just learned that Sarah Kendzior (author of They Knew and a brilliant writer) got bounced from Bluesky. What the hell? new @sarahkendzior.bsky.social

Bluesky suspended Sarah Kendzior today for no reason whatsoever. She just shared excerpts of her articles, which were as always incisive and not offensive at all. Hey @pfrazee.com this is super not OK. I know her- we've interacted a fair bit via chats and her work is essential.

Pluribus, somewhat surprisingly, is in large part about the push for AI everything.

But it's also about the limits of utilitarianism, and about consent, and about what makes us people.

Two episodes in, and I'm really hoping they can keep this up.

It should be illegal for them to restructure without being forced to sell their 91% share of Purolator.

For the public service itself to profit off gutting the public service is some real dark shit.
Mark Carney’s Liberals were not elected on a mandate to gut Canada Post, but they’re doing it anyway.

The minister intervened to begin the process, now management has now submitted a restructuring plan *in the middle of collective bargaining* that it refuses to share with Canadians.

And here is a double shot for ya — some cool driftwood logs (most of these are 15-20 feet — 4-6m) and the sunset such as it was for our semi-dreary afternoon.

Some deer Zen for you from my walk today.

Unbelievably dumb that my physio’s clinic offers a 36-hour text notification.

That’s guaranteed to come between 9pm and 6am. HOW IS THAT INTELLIGENT?

It got much colder but remained a nice autumn day. I took a leaf-appreciation walk that led to the sea and the sunset. Well-spent afternoon.

Your moment of Zen.

It was STELLAR.

Warm, sunny.

I had a busy morning. But wanted to hydrate, eat badly, and recharge my phone before taking a walk.

Now: Cloudy, windy, cold.

It looks like the clouds may blow off — but the wind will stay. Alas.

Oh well. Give it 30 minutes to blow off. Maybe! /darestodream

Esquimalt had a bad rap when I moved to Victoria.

But I’ve recently taken advantage of social supports provided in Esquimalt & I’m learning how great the community actually is.

So much so I’d consider moving there, next time I change homes.

Today, I received a free lap blanket someone made. :)

Increasingly, I perceive anyone in fighting sports and extreme health organizations as being likely write supremacists.

It’s been increasingly true for years.

I know there are big buff guys who are good humans too, but sadly you are being outpaced by really bad people.
If you have 10 Nazis in a room and one MMA Gym owner enters you have 11 #NAZIS in the room. What is hard to get?

Watching Eugene Levy at a health spa in Germany.

It’s pretty hilarious that you’d pay MORE to go to a spa and then… fast.

Restaurants could make bank on this — tell you they’re saving your life then only feed you broths they make for a fraction of the cost of a meal.

It’s hilarious because most of the world’s modern obesity problem can be attributed to the proliferation of American junk food.
