Stay hydrated, wear sunblock, punch nazis, get some rest. It's the Gulf of Mexico. Canada will never be a 51st state. Elbows up. 🏳️🌈🇨🇦🏋️♂️🥋🖥️
- I was feeling a bit odd yesterday, but couldn't figure out why until the evening: it was the absence of soul-crushing angst-producing stress-inducing non-stop pressure. What I was feeling was a return to normalcy, and it took me a full day to recognize it. 🙄
- Dinner was amazing.
- A seat won by a single vote! www.cbc.ca/news/politic...
- The square dance went well, everyone seemed happy, and many are pre-booking for our June dance. Victory, even if my feet ache.
- I'm calling a C2 workshop today. I've done this for years, but this time I'll have three callers including my original teacher present. I'm feeling some stress, like I'm walking into a final exam of some kind. Weird.
- At this rate, the US will lose air superiority to Lichtenstein by autumn.
- Another Navy jet falls into sea, marking fourth major mishap in months www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...
- Own your mistakes, make amends where possible. Being comfortable with discomfort is a superpower. So is patience. Before speaking, consider: Is it kind? Is it true? Is it necessary? Forgive yourself. Keep some savings, even if only a little. Single is better than a bad or mediocre relationship.
- Pope question... The new pope styles himself as Leo XIV, not Francis II, not Benedict XVII, not John Paul III, not Billy Bob I. Why Leo? I know his choice sends a message, but I'm not clear on what that is. Anyone have a think piece on why he chose Leo?
- A new pope has apparently been chosen. Since I have yet to receive a phone call, I'm suspecting my résumé didn't make the final cut. ☹️
- I found the perfect Mother's Day card for my narcissistic mother: "The way you have faith that good things will come around, that it's all going to work out, that you're going to make it through, no matter what..." We'll just leave unspoken that things work out bc my siblings & I bust our asses. 😑
- Local neighborhood safety patrol.
- I made a new turtle friend today!
- I'm going to marry for money next next time. 😑
- Hey, look who's on the calling staff for next year's square dance weekend!
- Just back from the groomers, freshly trimmed. Just add a new flea & tick collar and I'll be ready to go out in public again!
- A newly elected prime minister's choice of first international trip of his term sends a message. @mark-carney.bsky.social, may I suggest Ukraine? 🇨🇦🇺🇦
- A shiny new storage array is scheduled to arrive at my data center next Monday, and I'm oddly giddy with excitement about it.
- At this moment, it's a Liberal minority but there are still 26 seats undecided so anything could happen. At least PP lost his seat. 😆
- The Canadian federal election results are an utter cliff-hanger at the moment. I need to get to bed so y'all get this sorted out by morning, 'kay?
- Good morning, Canada! 🇨🇦 Today is election day. If you are eligible and haven't already voted, please do so at your convenience today. Win or lose, every vote matters. You matter.

- My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings; Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair! Nothing beside remains. Round the decay Of that colossal Wreck, boundless and bare The lone and level sands stretch far away.
- Back in the data center. The bits must flow!
