The electricity at my grandparents house is very loud. They should have consulted me before renting it.

In 2018 I was paying $895 a month for a large 1 bedroom apartment in Montreal (Ville Saint Laurent). Today I found a listing for a 1 bedroom in the same building for $1295 a month. That's just under a 45% increase.

I recently read Nettle and Bone by T Kingfisher and it's the fantasy book I didn't know I was looking for. If you're interested in a fantasy book with an autistic coded protagonist in her thirties whose goal is to kill her sisters abusive husband then this book is for you.

I'm reading Little Women and Werewolves. I'm only at chapter 10 and it wants so badly to be werewolf smut. Why is Jo so into Laurie as a werewolf?!

So remember how in Mockingjay Katniss' team is sent into the Capitol with a camera crew so they can film propos? Books aren't real, but they can teach us about the power of propaganda. This is meant to demoralize you. Don't let it.
DHS posted a sizzle reel about it.

I've been getting a lot of ads for tiny homes lately. That probably says something about the economy and the cost of housing.

I decided to knit a little guy. They still need a name and clothes.
