Happy birthday to Clara Hughes, born on this day in 1972 in Winnipeg! She competed at the Summer and Winter Olympics, and won two bronze in cycling and a gold, silver and two bronze in speedskating. She is the only person to win multiple medals in both Olympics. 📸 Simon Baker
The image shows Clara Hughes wearing a dark green and black top with a high collar, sitting indoors with a blurred background featuring large windows and a concrete pillar.

Welp. This guy
Copied post from twitter:

Edmonton Oilers @edmontonoilers

"Today we remember & celebrate our friend Joey Moss on what would have been his 63rd birthday [blue heart][orange heart]"

Photo is of a young Joey Moss decked out in full Oilers gear, with credentials around his neck, raising his gloved hand in the air with the index finger out in "No. 1" fashion. The photo appears to have been taken at one of the original Heritage Classic games played outdoors at Commonwealth Stadium.

Why should Albertans vote “no” on the four constitutional questions? Because we risk opening Pandora’s box — inviting another round of divisive and potentially detrimental constitutional debates that could well reduce, not expand, provincial autonomy. drjaredwesley.substack.com/p/pandering-...

22/23 The sea is already an unforgiving environment. We created safeguards precisely because it kills people. Political protest ashore is one thing. Entering an active rescue operation and physically interfering with vessels is something very different.

"Voting...is only one stage of democratic decision-making. Referendums cannot themselves create the political agreement necessary to resolve fundamental constitutional disputes; voting is only a small part of the referendum process; it cannot create the will to agreement where none exists."

Voted by mail-in ballot yesterday, incl'g with my parents. Multi-generational (incl'g high schooler niece) agreement that this whole thing, and particularly the 9 questions other than separation, is a despicable, harmful, waste of time, money and democratic legitimacy. No joy, but vote anyway.

Thoughts upon returning to Canada from Europe: 1) ArriveCAN is still a thing? I mean I didn't use it, but they're still saying it's a thing 2) better is definitely possible with our 4 largest airports 3) will my checked bag make it? I am open to taking risks but I know I have no agency here...

Traffic jam, Lake Bled
A sunny day on Lake Bled, Slovenia. Clear blue skies behind a forested Ridgeline. Centred in the photo is a church steeple. The church is on an island in the middle of a lake. On the lake are several rowing shells, of varying sizes and with rowers at a standstill, pointed in all directions. The photo is taken from the perspective of one rowing shell, the stern of which is painted white and blue with a red racing stripe.

Picture of a lake with a small island in the middle. On the island is a church. In front of the island are small platforms for a rowing race course. In the background are dark green forested mountain tops. Wider image of the previous view.Fancy main course of sous vide veal loin atop polenta with a cauliflower cream mash on the side and a red wine sauce. Served on a white plate.View from a hilltop over an emerald green blue lake. There is a hill with a chairlift and some sort of zippy luge go cart ride on the way back down. Resort town.

München
Marienplatz on a fine late summer Saturday. A blue sky with some white puffy clouds backdrops a golden topped plinth in the middle of a square filled with people roaming about in all directions. A young couple sit on/stand beside his and hers Vespa scooters, in front of a round plaza with an impressive statute of a German hero. In the far background are 6-7 story buildings that now have luxury shops on the street level. Glockenspiel at the central square in Munich. Up in the tower, surrounded by gargoyles, are the characters in traditional German Glockenspiel. They rotate around like a carousel as music is played on bells inside the bottom of the tower.

The image is of a four panel comic.
The title above the first two panels reads, "Dog Toys".
The first panel shows Sarah, the protagonist, holding a bone shaped dog toy. She says, "Look!"
The second panel shows a dog wagging its tail. There is a speech bubble leading back to Sarah saying "It squeaks!"
The title above the last two panels reads, "Cat Toys".
In panel three we see Sarah again. She says "Come, child."
Panel four shows a cat raising its paws in glee. We see Sarah's hands holding cat nip. We see a speech bubble leading back to Sarah saying "It is time to do drugs".

Dolly Parton spent 80 years proving you could have big hair, a bigger heart, a brilliant mind and absolutely no patience for anyone who underestimated you. She gave us unforgettable songs, free books for millions of children, and enough wit, rhinestones and kindness to light up Tennessee.
