Words for hire. Canadian, so… funny-ish? West Coast. Foodie. Oxford commas are a hill I’ll die on. Traveller. Anti-Nazi, pro-science.

In 2015, I sold everything to travel the world for over 4 years. I stopped 3 months before the pandemic. 25 countries in the Before Times? Worth it.

I share photography, tasty things, & cooking tips. I'm also political, left-leaning. Victoria, Canada.

And I swear. A lot.

In the last few weeks, I've planted my garden, filed my taxes, *coped* (which is no small thing anymore) and then, just when I was turning the corner on Saturday afternoon, I cut my hand with a rusty saw and got a tetanus shot.

I am so blessed that I cut my hand in the way I did, where I did, because it's healed incredibly well so far.

But, yes. Not being a good poster here.

NEW POST: Rising from the quagmire to put a few words down.

People need to get real about the dark corner America has painted itself into and just how much darker it will get.

But here in Canada, there are people working toward strengthening our civil response.

Here's where we are, why it matters, and what Canadians can do about it.

Notes From Inside a Dumpster Fire

I don’t know how to begin a post like this, because how do you?* We’re in the most terrifying geopolitical moment of my lifetime. Note this week, because everything changes here on out. When Trump blundered ahead with tariff fuckery, global observers were baffled, but many said it

Getting through this, & fighting these evil motherfuckers, all comes down to your resourcefulness, but guess what? The system's been trying to make you less resourceful for 50 years, to prevent you from fighting back.

That ends now.

The resistance starts with resourcefulness.

Photographer who snapped fight between a bald eagle and Canada goose calls it 'very symbolic' | CBC News

A bald eagle may have thought it spotted an easy lunch in a Canada goose sitting on an icy bay in Burlington, Ont., but according to Mervyn Sequeira — who watched and photographed a 20-minute battle between the two birds — the goose held its own.

@dashdsrdash Americans should learn that the Geneva Conventions were created because Canadian soldiers in WWI were the bloodiest, murderiest motherfuckers of the bunch.

We killed nearly every German prisoner we took.

Imagine how citizens, not covered by the Geneva Convention, will respond to any invading force.

If they thought the Taliban was hard to suppress, wait’ll they get a load of Canadians with 10+ x the insurgents (minimum) over 13x the landmass, with shared borders.

@arclight the fat can be pretty amazing. Roast potatoes in beef drippings… Yorkshire puddings, starting the soup off with chicken fat, etc. :)

But yes, I’ve got a pot of stock simmering as I type! Woohoo.
