Starting the 2nd in the Thursday Murder Club series by Richard Osman. Great writing. Strong characters. Witty narration. And intricate plots.

It looks similar to the BenMoore “Wolf Gray” I chose for my previous mid-mod home‘s office/bedrooms and loved so much that I’ve co-opted when I moved to a 2000s home. It’s more blue than the chip implies.

This guy is celebrating National Rescue Dog Day after joining our family 18 months ago. For those able to do so (size and allergy restrictions, etc.), adopt don’t shop. There’s a rescue dog near you waiting to be adopted. 🐾 ❤️ 🐕

It’s Independent Bookstore Day! Check out the local retailers in your area. And for those in Lethbridge #yql, why not do a bit of shopping at Echo, Analog, or Big John’s today.

In these times of turmoil and hate, check out the many resources and programs that celebrate Black History Month. We recognize contributions of Black people & communities & their role in shaping Canada’s identity. Together, we are working to be a more equitable, inclusive and diverse country.

What disturbs me about this - beyond the obvious - is that in any other political climate with an election looming, this kind of “endorsement” and exposure is normally a huge error in judgment that would end careers. Rather, today’s extremes seem to put this in the advantageous category instead.

May we all find insight and motivation in these lovely sentiments shared by Neil Gaiman (@neilhimself.neilgaiman.com). Be brave, be kind, be joyful, be true.

Merry Christmas from Magnus and only Magnus. He showed us he’s quite capable of opening his own presents thank you.

From this evening’s vigil in Magdeburg courtesy of my friend, Ines. The community will not hide from hate or let terror win.

I went on the free tour of West Block at Canada’s Parliament today. Always important to remember that the symbolism of the space, design of seating and barriers, and documentation of debates there come with heavy responsibility in our democracy. If your MP isn’t rising to the challenge, have a chat.

It was a thrill to learn more about Norway’s rocket and suborbital space program and research activities. More than 1200 rockets launched since they began in the 1962!
