Parenting reminds me of the abusive relationships I watched my mom and friends go through. Children scream at you and hit you and treat you like absolute shit, and then they turn around and lovebomb you by acting like the sweetest little angels. Never knew my coping mechanisms from my shitty childhood would be so helpful.

Oh I vote every election.

My riding has been conservative for decades, so I get to vote for whoever I want. Not that it matters. :\

I can’t blow my nose at all. Some weird mental block. I sniffle incessantly and drive everyone nuts instead.

Thank you! I love yours. I want to make a fancier one like that eventually but I keep making clothes.

Only blanket I’ve made.

Edit: I used this pattern.

Going on Canadian TV and saying that “everything is up for negotiation” when it comes to what Canada is willing to discuss? And Barton just sits there saying “I have no opinion”?!

Maybe I’m turning into a conspiracy theorist but I feel like Trump and team have been making personal threats against our (Canadian) politicians. The way they come out of those “meetings that are better kept private” (paraphrasing Dominic LeBlanc) make me uncomfortable. Something feels off. Totally not unlikely that I’m just being paranoid, but idk. I wouldn’t put it past Trump to operate like a mob boss.

I listened to a drunk Newfie (person from Newfoundland, Canada) give a speech once. I have no idea what he said. I heard they speak English there but I’m doubtful…

I know European Portuguese and Canadian French, but I’m not good at either.

Edit: I just remembered this youtube channel called Wikitongues. You can hear people speaking in all kinds of different languages and dialects. It’s fascinating. I found a dialect of French that sounds like Portuguese and French combined.

I crocheted a flag blanket. It’s not a cheap or easy solution but here’s the pattern I followed if anyone is interested. I have no plans on selling any unless someone wants to pay me $500 (which I hiiiiiiiighly doubt).

My god his problem with Pollievre is that Pollievre isn’t racist ENOUGH? What the fuck is this racist trash article?

analogue entertainment and cable TV instead of Netflix and Spotify

I’ve been trying cbc gem for streaming and it’s not been bad. It’s worth checking out.

I read once that kids believe things they overhear more than the things that they are directly told and have been trying to do this ever since.

I’m a farm labourer. I work outdoors doing a lot of heavy, physical labour, so no.

We still have plenty of eggs in Canada. Is this why Trump is threatening us

Tech also just isn’t advancing and changing as much as it was when we were younger so it’s not as exciting anymore

I stepped out of a van wrong and completely tore my acl and mcl and partially tore my lcl (basically, fucked up my knee).

I put this on my laptop, too. It has games that teach kids how to use a mouse and keyboard.

I don’t really agree, but it will piss off “alpha” guys if this catches on sooooo

We don’t play Monopoly with our mom anymore.
