Entering my 'cannae be arsed' era.
Former UK, based in Halifax, NS.
That’s made my day/week/month, actually.

Perhaps D12 is not my ‘jam’.

Not a reflection on the councillor, she did her best with the room.

Try the Natural History Museum, they have a bird collection in storage, and there is a curator there who is interested in such things. Could be a good collaboration opportunity for them.

Not going to be a popular initiative. There are proportionately more smokers here than many places. I call it the lowest common denominator.

"Time for tap" across the board with Halifax Transit I say. Even buying e-tickets and then tapping those feels like a lot.
Another beautiful September Halifax morning, another day watching visitors to our city trying to figure out to pay for the ferry by taking out cash from a private ATM, turning it into different cash, and feeding it into a little box. @samaustind5.bsky.social @tonymancini2025.bsky.social time for tap

I found a Northern Flicker feather on the ground, on the 2nd anniversary of my move to NS from the UK. Beautiful black, and the brightest yellow. I've taken it as a sign. I don't know of what yet.

As I said before... good ol Bert.

Today's vibe.
Since it's clear I'm going to need to put in extra work to cleanse the current timeline, how about Diego Rivera's horny radishes? Rivera painted this quasi-Surrealist scene of radishes in erotic poses—"The Temptations of Saint Anthony"—in 1947, inspired by an annual Oaxacan radish-carving festival

Good cleansing! :-)

Gosh but that’s nice. Thank you! 🙏

Oh! A beautiful book, this is not the first time I had the desire to read in German and, sadly, cannot.
September 11, 2025 at 12:44 PM
Wish list!
I'm excited to share that today is the official publication date for my new book, Van Gogh and the End of Nature, from Yale University Press, which more firmly grounds Van Gogh within the industrial era in which he lived & worked (thread)

Thank you for the detailed record of that.

Yes! The meal deal is genius, and I miss it. Sad but true.

Don't be this guy 📖
i’d sure hate to be the guy who ordered hundreds of coursebooks only for the faculty who ordered them to get locked out 2 weeks from class

This is an excellent message.
Il y a encore peu de temps, on trouvait normal d'avoir des tables fumeurs à côté de tables non-fumeurs dans les restaurants.

Halifax is exhausting on multiple levels.

If you open the fact sheets mid survey, it has a glitch that wont allow you to return to the survey.
