gcoffin.bsky.social @gcoffin.bsky.social · 08/10/2026Saw a box that had once contained "the endy matress" at the end of a driveway. Read it as the "the enby matress" at first, which felt oddly specific but it could have been adressing a need i wasn't aware of. 010
gcoffin.bsky.social @gcoffin.bsky.social · 08/10/2026Apparently i can play 500 miles on the dulcimer from memory. Neat! 030
gcoffin.bsky.social @gcoffin.bsky.social · 06/10/2026Feels weird liking that in context but what the hell? 100
gcoffin.bsky.social @gcoffin.bsky.social · 06/10/2026I'll give them a pass on no discernable classification scheme because you don't usually get to look that close, but it'd be really cool to see. 010
gcoffin.bsky.social @gcoffin.bsky.social · 06/10/2026I can't think when i've seen it done right. Nobody ever has records on open shelving, they're always in ancient bankers boxes. The shitty ones. Never use those. You don't see them being signed out, chain of custody on them is going to be for shit. Bad colour coding. 271
gcoffin.bsky.social @gcoffin.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Shit, me too. Thanks. first one that popped in to my head was The Grapes of Wrath, which is a great movie but man does that sound pretentious. Kind of forgot Star Wars predated me. 110
gcoffin.bsky.social @gcoffin.bsky.social · 21/09/2026If we could not use the words "magoo" and "bank" in the same sentence that'd be swell. My wallet has not recovered from the trauma. 010
gcoffin.bsky.social @gcoffin.bsky.social · 16/09/2026I was going down the stairs at work and i suddenly, without warning, remembered that i exist. As you might imagine this was a terrible shock for me. I might need to go lie down. 230
gcoffin.bsky.social @gcoffin.bsky.social · 03/08/2026Then you will be aware that New Kids on the Block had a bunch of hits 261
gcoffin.bsky.social @gcoffin.bsky.social · 02/08/2026The ants are pretty good. Now, i personally think the exhibit could use some fancy isopods, but those of course are technically not insects and i guess they aren't necessarily showy 010
gcoffin.bsky.social @gcoffin.bsky.social · 02/08/2026She's not wrong about the bug exhibit. Child of taste, i've often said. 110
gcoffin.bsky.social @gcoffin.bsky.social · 03/07/2026*pitches voice half an octave lower than normal* tell me more. 040
gcoffin.bsky.social @gcoffin.bsky.social · 22/06/2026They let the cats have a say and it tipped the balance in his favour. 000
gcoffin.bsky.social @gcoffin.bsky.social · 21/06/2026My bullfrog is redecorating his enclosure. He does this sometimes. Today he and i differ as to which way his cork bark hide should face, and african bullfrogs are really big and have very strong legs, so i'll just be sitting here and then i'll see this big half round of cork wander. 020
gcoffin.bsky.social @gcoffin.bsky.social · 20/06/2026It's set in an alternate reality where Prime Crime is still open. 010
gcoffin.bsky.social @gcoffin.bsky.social · 08/06/2026Yknow what's good? Beans. Beans fucking rock. There are so many iterations of beans, there's got to be something you'd like. 010
gcoffin.bsky.social @gcoffin.bsky.social · 22/05/2026"Gaelan, no" "But it's a weird amphibian AND it bites!" "Where do you think you are putting another weird, bitey amphibian?" "I WILL FIND A PLACE. " ( dramatic reinactment of a conversation i had with myself.) 010
gcoffin.bsky.social @gcoffin.bsky.social · 16/05/2026I purchased a fantasy novel partly because it has a map, and i love that shit. Have since discovered it also has an appendix and a table of contents. I am delighted. 020
gcoffin.bsky.social @gcoffin.bsky.social · 10/05/2026I have finished the knitting portion of the sweater i have been making. Let joy be unrestrained. 010
gcoffin.bsky.social @gcoffin.bsky.social · 06/05/2026First time i encountered it was coming back from Halifax. It was confusing and then delighful. 020

gcoffin.bsky.social @gcoffin.bsky.social · 28/04/2026There are much larger issues in the world. in the tapestry that is life this is but a stitch. That being said i really fucking miss Just Right cereal. 110
gcoffin.bsky.social @gcoffin.bsky.social · 27/04/2026And we just kind of stood like that, observing each other. Like the turtle was as interested in me as i was in her, or any other animal i saw that day. Like I was in some way entertaining. It was a cool experience. 020
gcoffin.bsky.social @gcoffin.bsky.social · 27/04/2026But we aren't here to talk about ducks. Lot of turtles around mud lake. And there are observation platforms out off the shore here and there. So i went to one, and there was this huge snapping turtle in the water. Which is a good place for a snapping turtle to be. Watching me. 120
gcoffin.bsky.social @gcoffin.bsky.social · 27/04/2026A few years ago i went for a walk around Mud Lake, which is a conservation area in Ottawa. Wood ducks nest there, which is pretty great but that's not why I'm remarking...though i will add there was a mallard that just decided she was going to follow me around for a while, which was neat. 120

gcoffin.bsky.social @gcoffin.bsky.social · 06/04/2026I do not wish to engage with things that are not amphibians, folk instruments, wool, or anything related thereto. Life, sadly, almost certainly has other plans for me this week. 000
gcoffin.bsky.social @gcoffin.bsky.social · 05/04/2026Shit. I went to university with a woman who had the same name as me but spelled differently. IIRC neither of us found the other particularly attractive, though we like each other fine. Who knows where life would gave gone if our parents had gone with the same spelling. 000
gcoffin.bsky.social @gcoffin.bsky.social · 25/03/2026Yup, i know that one. "I want to drive my RV to Iqaluit, but i can't figure out which highway goes there" 110
gcoffin.bsky.social @gcoffin.bsky.social · 25/03/2026Somebody will announce a plan to drive to Nunavut with a bunch of jerry cans and be really dissapointed when they try 110

gcoffin.bsky.social @gcoffin.bsky.social · 28/02/2026Kind of thought they were dried morels when i saw them. The colour was a bit concerning 000
gcoffin.bsky.social @gcoffin.bsky.social · 25/02/2026If you want relish you have to go two counties over, it's a whole thing. 020
gcoffin.bsky.social @gcoffin.bsky.social · 21/02/2026Stop, stop. You had me at "my next book". (Also, in all seriousness, go for it, fuck yeah) 010
gcoffin.bsky.social @gcoffin.bsky.social · 19/02/2026Saw a car with a bumper sticker that read "honk if you're a goose" while i was walking the dog. I think that had a certain style. 000
gcoffin.bsky.social @gcoffin.bsky.social · 02/02/2026Thought i saw a bald eagle on my lunchbreak, but as it got closer it turned out to be a raven carrying something white and vaguely head shaped in its' beak. Which is pretty good too, when you think about it. 010
gcoffin.bsky.social @gcoffin.bsky.social · 28/01/2026I don't want to know what happens if a dog with digestive troubles eats carbolic soap. I assume nothing good. 000
gcoffin.bsky.social @gcoffin.bsky.social · 24/01/2026On this day, being as my dog exists in all weather, i offer humble thanks for the existance of the stanfield factory store in Truro. 110
gcoffin.bsky.social @gcoffin.bsky.social · 23/01/2026One time the pet store my dad went to for cat food and aquarium supplies was stocking large bottles of ketchup and mustard because the owner loved relish and he had gotten a deal on caselots that had all three. So proof of concept i guess? Odd guy, but it was a good shop. 010
