Michael @garrattguy.bsky.social · 14/10/2026Stand on a bridge over running water. Contestants each drop a stick into the water on upstream side, run over to downstream side and watch. First stick out wins. Best played on small footbridge with no traffic. Very exciting for small children and ancient relatives. 200

Michael @garrattguy.bsky.social · 14/10/2026Tired: The shore power is off this morning for four hours for a scheduled wiring upgrade.

Michael @garrattguy.bsky.social · 10/10/2026I listen to a radio DJ who regularly uses the phrase “we will continue on with …”. Drives me crazy. “We will continue with …” is sufficient. “On” in this sentence is superfluous. Cc @fuzzywuzzyto.bsky.social 120

Michael @garrattguy.bsky.social · 29/09/2026I still think - based on no inside information whatsoever - that Harper has kept PP in place precisely because he is unelectable which has strengthened Carney’s hand to implement policies and projects Harper couldn’t. C is, after all, a Progressive Conservative pm, not a dyed in the wool Liberal. 010

Michael @garrattguy.bsky.social · 24/09/2026Its a self-serving BS argument anyway. In the event of a successful US invasion these people will fall over themselves to join the fascists and be 🇨🇦 Iceholes terrorizing and killing people whose skin colour they don’t like. 120
Michael @garrattguy.bsky.social · 22/09/2026The problem with books is that one does spend an inordinate amount of time reading them! May I recommend #Enshittification by @doctorow.pluralistic.net ? It is an eye opener into a world I use every day yet know nothing about. #BookSky 020
