- Reposted by Anne ThériaultThe notorious "Irish episode" of Stargate is rarely broadcast #Olympics #OpeningCeremony
- I think my favourite winter Olympic sport is the bobsleigh, because I like watching that silly little death sled hurtle down the track with only the top half of the helmets peeking out
- Happy Candlemas/Imbolc/Groundhog Day/whatever you celebrate. The important thing is that we are now halfway between the winter solstice and the spring equinox. We’re getting there!!!
- You know that moment near the beginning of Home Alone where the mom is trying to get Kevin to go upstairs and he says he hopes he never sees her again for the rest of his life? And Catherine O’Hara’s face hardly changes but somehow communicates just how heartbroken she is? Anyway, she was a genius.
- I’m so happy that she got to see how utterly beloved she was in the last few years. And I’m so sad for everyone that she left behind, because it seemed like she had deep friendships with so many of the people she’d worked with.
- Good - and I cannot stress this enough - night
- I grew up in a family where, if we didn’t have cash money for something, we just didn’t do it. Anyway, all of that is to say that it kinda blows my mind to learn how many people carry consumed debt from things like “we wanted to take a big family trip and this was the only way we could swing it!”
- Are you ever consumed by thoughts about how everything that you touch has gross germs all over it to the point where you struggle to function in public? No? Just me? Anyway, things are fine haha. Very cool, very normal.
- I was in Toronto this weekend and had to catch an early morning train back to Kingston. The subway doesn’t start running until 8 am on Sundays, so I had to take a cab to the station. I ordered it through the Beck Taxi app, so I could see the driver get close to my intersection before driving away.
- 15yo: you know how the Battle of Agincourt was fought on St. Crispin’s Day? Me: No, I don’t know that. 15yo: Oh. Well, anyway…
