"we need to verify your age so we can send you age-appropriate content!"
the main problem w/ that isn't having to enter a random date, it's that society has deemed "age appropriate content" for me to be heavily focused on pregnancy, fertility struggles, pro-SAHM anti-feminist propaganda. fuck that

@weathernetwork.bsky.social has increased the amount of ads in the app the past few days & now I keep getting promoted to pay for the ad-free version. Switched to WeatherCAN instead & it’s already better & the weather alerts are more accurate

a perfect example of my absolute favourite type of infill housing: big ol' manor homes converted into multi-unit dwellings that work *with* the original character features of the house & meet the needs of modern living and the extant neighbourhood

Who’d’ve thunk that realizing the university t-shirt I’m wearing is old enough to vote would be the catalyst for my birthday-related existential crisis and not, say, the sudden realization that I am officially in my Late Thirties

my dad put on the Jays game a few minutes ago, we were still in the top of the FIRST FUCKING INNING and I got the score from cbc
is it really that hard to just say "[match] concluded. tap for results"?

recorded the rugby game to watch later because TSN won't let cogeco customers stream it, but I guess I didn't need to since CBC oh so helpfully just sent me a news alert with the results in the headline. so thoughtful of them to save me from wasting time supporting our women's rugby team.

is Rao's pasta sauce seriously trying to con us into thinking they're Canadian? the jars literally say it's made in New Jersey. do they think we're too stupid to know where New Jersey is? even happier I bought Canada Red today instead now that I've seen that ad

having security check people's bags for certain items and dictating what vendors can and cannot sell bc of your own personal choices is not merely "asking"

How miserable and sad must your life be that you feel it necessary to destroy (with a sledgehammer!) something so harmless and whimsical? Pathetic, shameful behaviour.

just got a text alert that my Koodo prepaid phone plan will be increasing by 20% next month. I can't afford that, but it's still cheaper than their cheapest prepaid plan currently offered (33% more expensive than my current bill)
