I make bracelets; I cosplay; I play video games.
Mostly here for news that's not about USA because I don't live there.

Today I need to spend at least two hours looking for a job. I can hope to apply to ....I guess I hope for five I can apply to.
Otherwise I'm going to have to start going to employment centres, which I hate doing because none of the positions are remote or local.

Economics aside, it's hard to overstate the national security benefits to developing nations of getting out from under the thumbs of petrostates such as the United States.

Lowell Green was a racist demagogue who used his CFRA radio show as a soapbox to rant about immigrants and target racialized communities in Ottawa
Contrary to Ottawa Mayor Mark Sutcliffe's eulogy here, Lowell wasn't proud of Canada – he wrote an entire book about how it wasn't white enough for him

trying to look up recipes for chicken breasts for tonight
I don't have any dairy but old cheddar and homo milk. I'm out of potatoes. We do not have ingredients for tacos/fajitas (just tortillas and chicken).
Looking in the fridge, we have only carrots and salad dressing. Plus canned veggies.

Husband last night with channel locks, aiming for the cat's head "KITTEN PHRENOLOGY!!...
...still stupid"
Cat has a little walnut of a head, pretty smooth. Nothing to talk about on that one.

We met on a dating site. Our schedules didn't line up for a month, but we messaged daily. Finally I drove downtown one Friday night after work so we could have burritos that we ate in Trinity Bellwoods. We wanted to see a movie but it was 10pm so we went to his place.
This is an unapologetically sappy feel-good subject (at least, I guess, for people in a happy relationship”). So, to prepare for Valentine’s Day, what did you and your partner do for a first date?
My wife and I went to tea at Huntington Gardens and walked around.

You may laugh, but the Macbeths are a much better role model for a marriage than Romeo and Juliet. They discuss their problems (killing the king of Scotland), share their hobbies (killing the king of Scotland), and resolve their conflicts (by killing the king of Scotland).

Roommate sang out "hot choogs in the city 🙂🙂🙂" and my husband, with his head down messing with an outlet, responded "she's dumb and she's a kitty"
This is a musician household, there is always someone singing.
(I dunno who recognises that as "Hot Child in the City" and knows Choogs is the cat)

I ended up making bread again. I wanna get good at it and provide bread for the house. But also making bread in my tiny stand mixer blows.
It might be a regular size stand mixer, I don't know. It struggles on five cups of flour in two cups of water.
