Highly recommend the audiobook, which includes throat singing

May you never encounter a flock of Canada geese. They will not only stand their ground - they'll charge you if you ever so politely ask whether they might want to, perhaps, consider moving along 😬🦆🦆<<<🇨🇦🪿

Let's see: female rage, written by a fellow Canadian cat lady? Sold!

I'm the same way. I've had two near-misses with falling trees in my life - I'm wary of giving mother nature a third try. I'll be at the mall this afternoon until the storm passes.

The colour palette is phenomenal 😍

Depends on your natural colour and grey distribution. My hair is currently giving patchy, nutritionally deprived squirrel after a particularly harsh winter, so it needs help until it fills into more solidly grey. But I have friends who look great embracing it from the get-go.

Great article. That her ebook is not available in English from either McGill or the BanQ is unfathomable to me.

Seeing it on android phone, but not in chromium-based browser on desktop.

Congratulations!

I had two cousins. Growing up in the late 70s/early 80s, one was into disco, and one was into heavy metal. I'm happy to see their spirits live on!

It most certainly is! One major breakfast chain makes about 20 variations, mostly involving hollandaise sauce. My fave is triple sausage with scrambled eggs, and my fiancé enjoys the brie and mushroom. One gazillion calories, easy.

Taco Delulu should be his drag name

Montreal suburban gen X. I haven't heard it, and if I did, I would think they are a native French speaker. I've heard I'm done, but not with a specified object after. I'm guessing it means I've finished, while I'm done with means I don't want it anymore, even if there's some left.

Same. I hope apps like Libby will at least make it possible to exclude AI narrators in their search function

In French, they call it "l'esprit de l'escalier," or staircase wit. It hits me way later too
May 23, 2025 at 5:25 PM
I mean, it exists, so that puts it well ahead of over half their list - congratulations! (Disclosure: I have 2 days to finish House of Bone and Rain before my Libby loan expires. Loving it. Why am I on Bluesky right now?)
