Catherine Anderson @candershamilton.bsky.social · 06/10/2026In 2008, with newborn twins, we discovered that a Toyota Yaris could not accommodate two infant car seats. So we went out and bought diapers, formula, and a 2nd-hand Camry. Today the twins are at uni and we are saying farewell to this faithful vehicle. 150

Catherine Anderson @candershamilton.bsky.social · 14/07/2026Finally finished a project that has been in progress for more than two years. #Sabbatical 🧵🪡 #DHmakes 280
Catherine Anderson @candershamilton.bsky.social · 29/06/2026Also, @kirbyconrod.bsky.social will be pleased to know that I’m wearing this shirt and the HR person in my office did indeed ask! Linguistics everywhere. 040

Catherine Anderson @candershamilton.bsky.social · 22/06/2026I was so busy last week I forgot to post my rainbow garb but there’s still some June left! Today’s rainy weather allowed me to deploy the rainbow umbrella 020
Catherine Anderson @candershamilton.bsky.social · 14/06/2026I inherited today’s rainbows from Twin B when he outgrew them. 010

Catherine Anderson @candershamilton.bsky.social · 09/06/2026A relatively subtle rainbow today, made less subtle by my clumsy repair when I was first learning to do visible mending. 070
Catherine Anderson @candershamilton.bsky.social · 08/06/2026Today’s rainbow is from Sophie Labelle’s @assignedmale.bsky.social merch store. 030
Catherine Anderson @candershamilton.bsky.social · 06/06/2026For today’s rainbows we go to the hosiery section. Unfortunately, like many retailers, Bombas has not put out a pride collection this year. But fortunately for me, I tend to make my clothes last a long time. 050
Catherine Anderson @candershamilton.bsky.social · 04/06/2026Today we have the tiny, subtle rainbow unicorns. A retired bishop once told me that unicorns are “very heraldic”. 050
Catherine Anderson @candershamilton.bsky.social · 03/06/2026Today’s rainbow celebrates ice cream in addition to Pride. Win-win! 160

Catherine Anderson @candershamilton.bsky.social · 21/06/2025It’s been at least two decades since I set foot in a laundromat, and I’m finding it strangely peaceful. But also taking the opportunity to be grateful that I can usually wash my clothes in my own home. 110
Catherine Anderson @candershamilton.bsky.social · 10/02/2025Well, isn't this a very nice way to start the week! 6260
Catherine Anderson @candershamilton.bsky.social · 12/01/2025The original yellow Sony sport Walkman had a gasket between the body and the cover. The sequence of clicking open the side latch, tugging gently to release the seal, flipping the cassette, latching it shit, then pressing the rubber Play button is deep in my haptic memory. 120
Catherine Anderson @candershamilton.bsky.social · 04/12/2024It’s the last day of classes and it’s snowing a bit so it is very quiet on campus. Which allowed me to hear this fellow’s quiet little winter song, and thereby to spot him in all his handsome enfloofenation. 041
Catherine Anderson @candershamilton.bsky.social · 13/11/2024Got roundly, canonically garden-pathed on this beautiful headline: [gore park heritage buildings] = the horse [eyed for development] = raced past the barn [collapse] = fell #linguistics 021
Catherine Anderson @candershamilton.bsky.social · 16/10/2024Am delighted to report that I was first in the queue for my local library’s copy! 0172
Catherine Anderson @candershamilton.bsky.social · 14/10/2024I like a good feast but I have zero interest in dealing with the details of the preparation. Luckily for us, Twin A loves a complex kitchen project: 140
Catherine Anderson @candershamilton.bsky.social · 19/09/2024New and baffling example of some kind of scope ambiguity. Do I have a 40% chance of my hair becoming curly in the next six years? #linguistics 460
Catherine Anderson @candershamilton.bsky.social · 22/07/2024This graffiti on a nature trail under a major roadway. 042
Catherine Anderson @candershamilton.bsky.social · 18/07/2024A nice Niagara rosé really brings out the flavour of a flame-broiled tube steak. 020
