Finishing up our gluten farewell tour with one of the best croissants I’ve ever had. @sphillipsab.bsky.social did your partner do a farewell tour?

Part of the reason even Bluesky fails to meet Twitter Pre-Musk. I have Politics, Journalism, and News selected as my preferences and I get Deadpool Game as top pick of what’s going on when I’m curious about LA protests. 🙄

Learning to sail, going on hikes, parenting crazy kids, and hanging out with gorgeous wife. The usual.

No but I picked this book up at the Times Colonist Book sale last spring and started reading it 2 weeks ago. Haha

How’d did yours get so leafy? Mine just bolted 2 feet, straight up and then had 2 piddly leaves on top. This despite efforts to prune it to try and get it to branch off.

Where these two lines diverge is when we started to prioritize shareholders over workers. I’m open to hearing any and all ideas of how we can address this as it underlies many political grievances we see today.

AI google says no. But I’ll wait for an ACTUAL answer.

This is a new favourite and a little on the nose for Victoria this week.
