Breakfast Item
Hey all, I'll be in Seattle July 20-26th. Hit me up if you don't already have plans to meet. (Heavy post, fair warning) It's a good suit. Easily the best I've owned. Well fitted and good for virtually any occasion where
Les Epochs de Bunny
Early Days Bunny was found after a long search. My partner scoured the internet for an old dog to rescue. They were banned from a official Boston Terrier Facebook group after arguing with the admin, who insisted such dogs are not good for apartment living. This is, on its face,
Against Convenience
The first and only time I truly participated in a democracy was on the top floor of a home for aged persons on Seattle's First Hill, staring at the incredible cosplay of the anime convention Sakura-Con hundreds of feet below, and trying to ignore an ex-boyfriend
Not the B-plot
Calling it a song of my youth certainly dates me, but there it is. There are times When you need someone (yeah) I will be by your side (For sure, for sure) I can't quite bring myself to socialize at this queer board game night event at my
A slow burn to Woke 3
Typical history classes speed up to wars and then fail to describe the results, even medium term. This all but guarantees a stunted understanding of why large conflicts occur and how/when they are prevented. For instance, the lead up to the American Civil War (1860-1865)[[1]] is rushed.

It is officially the end of our second year in Quebec! I've talked about this place quite a lot but let's pick up some parts on the cutting room floor. Too Fast Too Flurryious Yes there is no avoiding this: during the winter Quebec is pretty

No..uh...Tyrants? Newsposting
I was informed recently that for all the effort I put into finding and embedding the music for my last post, literally nothing appeared in the email. If you were interested in actually hearing anything I featured, here is a link to the actual post with all the music available.
Palette cleanser music post
You can get news anywhere and there is currently too much of it. I'm happy [[1]] to talk about it in another post, but here and now let me share some music with you. These are good songs even if you don't know French and do
Pride by any other name
I originally wrote this post in French as a means to practice for the language exam - part of trying to get permanent residence - in October. I already took two of the four parts of the exams before the Ministry for Immigration and Francisation changed the rules and made it necessary
And in the spirit of Rambo
Today: summer in Montreal, silly side projects/networking, and why make babies.
Have a great stay at home!
I have a million more things to say about Paris but (1) my last post was rather text heavy and (2) rather than going detail by detail I've thrown together some photo highlights with commentary. The long history: The food/drinks which, like any major world city, were
