A reminder, because it is almost that time of year: More children are killed by cars on Halloween than any other day of the year, by far. www.vox.com/future-perfe... If you're a parent, I hope you'll do what you can to keep kids safe. If you're driving on Saturday, PLEASE exercise extra caution.

We've just announced another tour! Bristol, Cardiff, Newcastle, Atherton, Carlisle & Leeds will all go on sale Friday 9am. Don't worry if these shows are nowhere near you..we've got two more tours to announce! 2027 will be a very busy year for us. We're going to play all over the UK.

Brewers watchers: how many seasons has ‘Ms Low-Cut Top’ behind home plate been keeping score at home games? She’s very committed to her outfits, her big hair, and especially her notebook. (Geddy also does/did this at Blue Jays home games)

Moving day countdown t-1 and I am knackered. Probably because the two fellas in our household each packed their own rooms and were like, ‘I’m done!!’ I’ve packed & cleaned the kitchen cupboards/2 fridges/freezers, 2 bathrooms, my own stuff, a linen cupboard and part of the basement. 🫠😳

Protesting conglomerate takeovers, stagnant wages, lack of services and skyrocketing prices? Absolutely! Destroying small neighborhood storefronts and violent showboating for your similarly masked 16-year-old buddies? Nah, feck off with that pretend “activism.”

Foolish curs, that run winking into the mouth of a Russian bear and have their heads crush’d like rotten apples!

Seems that building a massive data centre in NS, especially one that’s partially US-owned, might be…really fecking stupid. 😬

New from me at TVO, about what governments can do about Stelco (and the rest of our foreign ownership class) www.tvo.org/article/anal...

I love Ina Garten but girl, ranch dressing does not require basil. Mash a garlic clove with 1 tsp kosher salt in a bowl. Add a cup of good mayo and the juice of a lime. Stir in about half a cup of full fat buttermilk and a handful of fresh chopped parsley. Season with s&p and chill before using.

You know who does publicity aimed at reviewers well? @biblioasis.bsky.social. Per total number of books they published I've reviewed a hugely disproportionate amount because they try to speak to me like an individual human and it is very much appreciated. (And effective!)

Well-sourced, eye-opening (but in hindsight, unsurprising) piece from Adam. The main use of AI by publishers appears to be publicity/marketing. I would like to explain why this is a bad use from the perspective of someone who gets pitched dozens of books a week for coverage.

At this point, I don’t know what it would take for Americans to fight back. So many of you must believe that nothing dire will happen to you personally. One thing about clarity of distance: those of us in other countries are genuinely gobsmacked.

I wish I had not learned how people buy bags at Hermès and now I am in full misanthrope mode. What do you mean you shop and wait, rinse and repeat, until *they* decide you’re good enough to buy a bag for tens of thousands of dollars?! How have humans not gone extinct from our stupidity?!

Today is Bandcamp Friday! For 24 hours, we waive our revenue share, so even more of every purchase goes to the artists and labels behind the music. Go forth. The music is waiting: https://bit.ly/4hW8Snx

The CN Tower stands on reclaimed land from the shores of Lake Ontario, a meeting place for many Nations, including the Mississaugas of the Credit, the Anishinaabe, the Chippewa, the Haudenosaunee, and the Wendat peoples. Tonight, it glows orange in honour of Truth and Reconciliation Day.
