I am not first and will be far from the last to say this: I have purchased so many books because I saw them recommended or publicized here on bsky. I cannot urge you all enough to KEEP TALKING ABOUT BOOKS. I know it's easier to talk up someone else's book, but this also means you, the shy author.

Today on "do not be like me", don't cut towards yourself! I have been told this many times and yet, while trying to peel and de-core a fruit, I managed to slam the blade of a knife into my index finger. Somehow missed the big vein by a mm or so but aaaaaaaaaa Happy Monday I guess idk 😭

i feel like people who grew up on web 2.0 don't realize websites aren't supposed to be social media. they aren't supposed to trap you and keep you on there with constant engagement and interaction. websites are supposed to just Exist as an index or archive for you to look at only as much as desired

Callie 🐾 @calicococoa.ca · 18/09/2026

Of course! Will probably do a full write up/review on it later. I feel like they could expand to int'l though if they get enough traction/sales with it! Especially since this is semi launching with another (shadow dropped) "shop canadian brands" portion of their website highlighting 🇨🇦 small biz 🫣

010

Callie 🐾 @calicococoa.ca · 18/09/2026

Maybe? I also hooked up my small biz account so I'm not sure if they're extra discounting or it's coming from my account LOL. But it would make sense if they're undercharging on purpose since it is being run by Canada Post. Well, guess I'll find out whenever I have a chance to launch it 😂

110

Callie 🐾 @calicococoa.ca · 18/09/2026

Yeah I'm almost a hundred percent sure it was to cut them out. My main worry is that they're under charging on the costs on the checkout page because I'm baffled my 9.5" x 12.5" x 3.5" ita bags are coming out to only $14 for shipping in Toronto... Which seems wrong 😂

Callie 🐾 @calicococoa.ca · 18/09/2026

Will I be peeved if it does get sales but then they close it after 2030? Absolutely. But I've been looking for a Canada-only website for ages and if their shipping pricing is accurate, I'd love to decrease prices and pay cheaper prices to ship my larger heavier items.

020

Callie 🐾 @calicococoa.ca · 18/09/2026

According to their TOS this whole thing is valid until, at least, 2031, so I'm going to go out on a limb here and assume that it's a test pilot to see if people will use it. (Which is funny considering how little advertisement there was for it 😭) But hey, it's free unlimited items so I'll take it!

100

Callie 🐾 @calicococoa.ca · 18/09/2026

My takeaway is that if you're familiar with how Shopify functions, this is the really stripped down free version of it with Canada Post as its only shipping option. It's very barebones with additional functionality through on platform widgets and embeds but (almost) no built-in extensions.

Callie 🐾 @calicococoa.ca · 18/09/2026

I would like to update that I made an account and found out the following: - it's (atm) Canada-only shipping - for some reason you can put in the weight but not the dimensions of the box it would go in??? - connects with stripe, paypal or list banking instructions on payment screen Thoughts below 🤔

Callie 🐾 @calicococoa.ca · 17/09/2026

I literally Do Not Understand who did this because they even made a promo video for it? But literally NO ONE other than me apparently saw or heard about it??? I'm actually baffled 😭 youtu.be/rpzGVESSwqc?...

I am cautiously optimistic because it looks like they poured a lot of work into making this functional. But also they really did not do a good job of advertising this... At all 💀 In fact, when I saw it I thought it was a fake website because whomsted shadow dropped this?

But overall I thought it was a good romp. I do wish there was more incentive to NG+ it though. Cosmetics fun, but no carry over game perks make me sad. Esp den lvl. Strictly from a game mech perspective, I'd say it was enough to scratch the itch. But I really just want another XCOM game fr 🥲
