With @ariareddy.bsky.social at Drag Bingo at Railside in Kelowna, and just got handed *reusable* bingo cards. You listening, cruise ships?

Had an amazing meal of elk sausage, BBQ salmon mousse, and wild mushroom, brie & sage-blueberry bannock with bison gravy at www.salmonandbannock.net. A delightful balance of flavours, textures, and aromas, and a perfectly decadent way to decompress from a very smokey & dusty Regional Burn.

Got home from a physically exhausting and heart-filling regional Burn to find the doors ajar on BOTH of my freezers. There was much swearing. I am out a LOT of food, and my kitchen is a disaster, but I'm clean, warm, and struggling to stay awake until 10.

The Wetland Project has been my favorite alternate-reality radio experience since it began. Since it only happens once a year, you can’t become accustomed to it. Close your eyes and be washed over by the sonic reality of an isolated bog on Saturna Island!

Wandered into Appolos on the Drive for dinner after a show, and stumbled on the awesome Molly Moolman trio playing classic jazz. Delicious lamb, risotto, panna cotta, and earworm beats for days! #randomdatenightwithMel

Today was about things that should be small, but in context were huge. 1) I finally got a crown on that tooth that's been making my mouth hell for the last 3 weeks. 2) I acknowledged aloud that I'm not returning to my profession of 22 years. Time to begin planning forward to the new me.

This article contains a lot of super useful information, not just about the mechanisms of conspiracy theory in Canada but also about just how small a minority of people actually believe it. Even though it can *feel* like a lot, it really isn't. Pretty hopeful! Worth a read!

Yesterday was a 15-hour trip to Bellingham for a 15-minute appointment. That was balanced by getting to see one of my oldest friends, and (among other delights) play crib under this tree.

This is what a month on the road without laundry (but with housesitters) looks like. Also, I might have too many clothes. #1stWorldProblems #UnemploymentEnjoyment?

Honestly, it's been a while since I've been excited about anything. But it's finally starting to feel like Summer! In full planning mode for Vancouver Fetish Weekend, followed by the regional Burn. And for once, these 2 events aren't on the same weekend. I haz the Excite! #VFW #WhatIf

Yesterday, this l'il peeper flew under my deck chair, and into my living room. They beat themselves silly on the walls & windows before finding a safe perch on a painting. 3 hours later, they finally dared the open patio doors again. Fly free l'il art birb!

Do NOT go see the new Marvel movie expecting their classic blend of humour & superheroes. Make sure you are in a good place, and or have your support people with you. This is Marvel's take on desperation, loneliness, & mental health crises. I cried through the finale, credits, & after.
