Checks out.
A view of one of the curved towers of Toronto City Hall. It's night, and the  outer wall of the tower is illuminated with the words 'The view at night is is incredible'.

Dreamed I was somehow cast in an episode of 'Heated Rivalry' but didn't know the story or my lines. It was a huge relief to film the hockey scenes because I finally knew what to do.

A pathetic group tried to be threatening at the Tk'emlúps te Secwépemc reserve. Imagine those losers thinking they could intimidate a people that have survived centuries of oppression. Let's all add 'smash white nationalism to the ground and incinerate the roots' to our ongoing To Do list.

The best part about selling books (to approximately eleventy million people) at Word on the Street is realizing how many people of all ages are passionately interested in books and reading. Wonderful to see, and be part of.

Get your read on, Toronto friends! This weekend is ALL ABOUT THE BOOKS. Word on the Street, the giant book-themed street party, returns to David Pecault Square (by Roy Thompson Hall). We'll be selling books at the Love & Shadows Stage: toronto.thewordonthestreet.ca/event-direct...

A months-old IG post of mine has recently been targeted by porn bots, new ones every day. It's a photo of pondweed?!?

Pulled what I thought were meatballs out of the freezer: turns out they were balls of chocolate chip cookie dough. Glad I figured it out before I dropped them into my ramen. In completely unrelated news, I had cookies for breakfast.

Spent the afternoon at Biidaasige Park and there were SO! MANY! BUTTERFLIES! Magical. Even against the dramatically gloomy sky they glowed.

Reminder: the active villain here is Robert Kraft. He's the one who demanded silence. He was also a friend of Epstein and is the owner of a football team with multiple cheating scandals. You know, typical old white-guy billionaire stuff.

Dear MS Office, I'm not a computer expert but if your updates a) take more than two hours, and b) leave computers with no memory of either the software OR hardware needed to connect to the internet, may I suggest your update is, in the common parlance, absolutely fucking terrible?

A reminder that Doug Ford is still a corrupt liar who will sell Ontarians out for a dollar even if he did say Trump could kiss his ass.

Peaches and wild blueberries for breakfast as long as they last. So good.

My friend Kel was: superhero movie dates; legendary comebacks; cocktail night company; a devoted dad; and the only person I know with stories that ended 'Three days later I woke up in a different country...still don't know where the tattoo came from'. #FuckCancer. Seriously.

Pretty sure there's more nonsense issuing from Washington but I can't really hear it over the sound of the Welland Canal.

I loved Tim Curry in every role I saw him in. Even, or maybe especially, when I was surprised to realize it was him. A true actor. Rest in peace.

Oh. Oh no. Thank you, Dolly. Your talent, drive, smarts, determination, and unending generosity made the world a better place. May we live up to some of the standards you set.

After an evening of full-on concert screaming I thought 'Ha, my voice is fine!' Then I went back the second night and now I sound like a pack-a-day smoker. Still worth it.

Saw a concert last night. Got soaked. Totally worth it. Music is wonderful. But live music, in a venue full of people who love it, is something extraordinary.

Wonder how much longer the fuck around stage will last? The finding out's gonna sting in all sorts of unexpected ways.

I visited a distillery where they also raise chickens. An employee wandered the grounds cradling a fledgling Silkie which she let us stroke gently because 'sometimes you need a chicken break'.

Finally saw Hadestown (and loved it) but wow, that climb out of the underworld? We all knew what was coming, waiting for it was acutely painful.

After today's MS Office update, clicking 'add link' not only adds a hyperlink to my document BUT ALSO changes its font, wtaf, Microsoft. Go to your room. And never come out again.

I'm much improved but not yet well and unghh, being sick is so annoying.

My housemate ran the laundry card through the dryer TWICE and it looks hilarious but still works so that's a double bonus.

I was so sorry to hear about Sam Neill. Loved his work -- he was someone your eyes were always drawn to onscreen. And his IG farm posts were small gifts that made your day better.

Met up with a friend I've know almost 50 years (our brothers were in kindergarten together). We live in different countries now, and lead very different lives, but it's still such a pleasure to spend a whole day together and not run out of things to talk about.
