Fire alarm testing at my office. At one point I yelled “oh my fucking god shut up” right when someone who technically has a desk near my office but I’ve seen like, twice in three years, happened to be wandering by and laughs at me. Sorry, coworker. I was raised by bus drivers. I’m beyond hope.

I wear a long flared rain coat on dark rainy days (from RainSisters, it’s gorgeous) and it makes me feel like a cat trying to make myself appear bigger when I cross the street. -swirl- HISS.

Hey Vancouver friends, PLEASE sign this petition to save the traffic calming that has made my neighbourhood much safer for my kids and everyone else walking and rolling through it. It’s under attack by a vocal minority with the ear of the media and 2 municipal parties (TEAM and ABC, fyi). 1/

Was informed today that my kid flipped a double bird at a car parked in a crosswalk today, in case I wanted to speak with him about it. I do not. Unless it’s to give him a high five. Right on, Babysaur.

Yeah, my needs include “not being annexed by morons”. The cognitive dissonance is astounding.

“I know it’s an international event even though we share a border” …isn’t having a border between you (shared or not) the definition of international? What a strange way to word that. I’m very tired of people who think Canada is USA Lite.

Company mandated security training includes a new section on the dangers of AI with some extremely creepy AI videos to tell us how bad AI is. Make it make sense. Happy Cybersecurity Awareness Month. So spooky.

I have to say that certain candidates in the Vancouver municipal election are making it very difficult to stay politically neutral. Having said that, it's not a good idea -- and likely illegal in BC -- to drive and record video of yourself talking to the camera. And then post it on the internet.

I’m now far enough out of surgery that I forgot why my arm felt odd (I have a little numbness in my elbow and the scar itself is a little sensitive to rough textures.)

Next up: brunch with a coworker I have technically known for around 15 years but have never met in person and have no idea what she looks like. Well that’s a little nervewracking.

The fun part is I now know enough people in the local fibre community that a solid half of the time was spent chatting with some of the awesome local people doing great things for fibre enthusiasts… like @ninetenpub.bsky.social

Donna Fox @donnamatrix.bsky.social · 04/10/2026

Phew, managed to get through XOXO Fibre Festival in the one hour timeframe I had for it, now to run to the seabus so I can make my next event. Did I spend too much money? Of course I did. It wouldn’t be me otherwise.

Okay so important science question Bats are mammals and poop the same way mammals do (it looks like mouse poop ftr, we have bats rest around the eaves, love em) and have their butts in approximately the same place... So when they're hanging upside down, uh So they just poop on themselves or what?

i worry that men think being A Good Guy is dramatically and heroically intervening on behalf of an endangered woman and then being publicly rewarded on a grand scale when actually being A Good Guy is just usually saying, “hey man that’s not funny” or “wow that’s fucked up” and there is no reward

I am having far, far too much with this game. I am absolute garbage at color coordination but I am greatly enjoying making pigeon-themed dresses for some reason.

Sitting on a bench on the seawall and the dude on the next bench over is playing on a recorder. An actual recorder. The thing we all tortured our parents with in grade 3. What is going on. (He’s as good as I was when I was 8 too.)

Donna Fox @donnamatrix.bsky.social · 28/09/2026

YES. YES IT IS. The weird thing is how often you use your left arm without realizing it. I never did get used to putting my jacket or backpack on left arm first. Hurt like hell every time I did it wrong too. Sigh.

Donna Fox @donnamatrix.bsky.social · 27/09/2026

Two years of being consistently overheated. Always. Forever. Losing my shit on my spouse when it gets above 20. Except this week, apparently. This week I’m back to being cold, even when it’s 22-23 inside. What. The. Fuck. Perimenopause, could you just make a decision and stick with it?

Look I appreciate Truth & Reconciliation Day as an important thing that means a lot but ALSO there’s now a stat holiday the day after my birthday which means I can take two days off work and turn my birthday into a five day weekend. So anyway, see you next Thursday, coworkers.

Has a certain recent movie trailer (ahem, "Wicker") sparked an urge in you to dive into the thick rods and slender weavers of basket weaving (either because of or in spite of what they’re called 😉)?

Have a strong desire (that will almost certainly peter out in like, 3 days) to come up with a “Spinster” persona for the purposes of ren faire performances, subverting the “old maid” stereotype back to its historical roots, a woman who can financially support herself without a man via spinning.

“Butcher and Blackbird” by Brynne Weaver has no business being this good for a book with a content warning list longer than my forearm that includes “accidental cannibalism” and “questionable use of a mummified corpse”. Considering how much I enjoyed “Lights Out” I guess I’m into dark romance now.

Donna Fox @donnamatrix.bsky.social · 20/09/2026

Sure sign of a ren faire: uncomfortable clothing and comfortable shoes.
