@eniko we were looking forward to COVID being over so we could do our part to import the Asian tradition of wearing a mask when you know you're sick, so you don't get your friends sick

but of course now it looks like COVID is going to be the rest of our lives, so we just wear a mask all the damn time regardless. like. yeah.

“When drivers fail to yield for pedestrians, it’s not because they can’t see them, it’s because they don’t care.” Kudos to @VisionZeroYVR for this brilliant intervention. https://momentummag.com/vision-zero-campaign-bricks-vancouver/ #TheWarOnCars

I didn't realise this was a thing, do people really think Mary Shelly wasn't the first SciFi author? 🤔

Until recently I thought that song was saying "I wish that I _was_ Jesse's girl"

I was in school before most schools had a free breakfast program. This meant most mornings I did not eat breakfast. By mid morning, it was hard to concentrate. I'd be watching the clock until lunch, which I got for free due to financial hardship. This was alleviated when I went to a school with free breakfast, for which I qualified. I still had ADHD struggles, but at least I wasn't watching the clock anymore, waiting for lunch. There was a brief time where I didn't qualify for free lunch. Lunch looked like a peanut butter sandwich, often without jelly, or buttered bread, and sometimes just a carrot. Subsidized school meals was a lifeline for me. Now some people want to grow the program, so that kids don't fall through the gap like I did, and others want to take it away completely. Children can't learn when they're hungry. And sometimes, those school meals are the only decent meals they have. Summers can be rough.
