Going on Scruff is like going fishing. You might catch a fish, you might not, but the activity itself is fun. And going on to just chat and not hook up (as I usually do) is just catch & release. 😂

Today is Canada's National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, a day of memorial to recognize the atrocities and multi-generational effects of the Canadian Indian residential school system.

When we say every child matters, that includes the children who survived, not just the ones who died. The ones who came back damaged, and whose damage flowed down to their children and grandchildren. The ones who society forgets, or looks at in disgust or pity.

Those children matter too.

Today is the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. First observed in 2013 as Orange Shirt Day, it is a day for public commemoration, learning and reflection on the history and intergenerational trauma of the Residential School System in Canada.

🧡 “We are going to be here, remembering those children and their families, until we can’t.” Across Newfoundland and Labrador, communities are gathering for the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. CBC is sharing survivors’ voices and carrying remembrance across the country.

I just gave this advice to a friend and I'll share it here too. There are two fundamental types of people in this world: Those who go through life dreading being at the mercy of people like themselves and those who go through life hoping they are. Make your life goal to be one of the latter.

I really wish I'd stop "smelling" phantom smoke all the time. It feels like walking around inside an ashtray like, a third of the time. Apparently it's a symptom of dry nose / dry air but maybe I'm dying? idek

Quickest way to make me utterly and completely uninterested in you is to actively avoid reading any of the information you've been provided with. The apps have profiles for a reason, bubs. Illiterates don't get any of my time no matter how pretty they look.

Now *that* is the kinda Star Trek I'm here for. We watched the final episode of SNW S4 last night, and wow - it was wonderful to see Uhura as The Main Character in an episode. And Celia Rose Gooding was fantastic! The best Trek is about the *people*, not pew-pew space shootemups. ❤️❤️❤️

I know Vanagons are much cooler, but something really appeals about a EuroVan Westfalia instead. (NOT EuroVan Winnebago) They're just so much more modern and sufficiently powerful in stock form (cheaper insurance!) Them being Canadian-market-only in North America is also pretty neat!

i miss everything before ai.
i miss not wondering if every photo i see is real. i miss knowing someone's writing is their own. i miss when movies were crafted by human hands and brains, not the recycled work of other creatives stolen without their consent. i miss not being constantly threatened with "learn it or get left behind, " while being simultaneously told it will ultimately replace me regardless. i miss not having a lingering mental countdown for when that replacement will happen. i miss not knowing who sam altman is. i miss the social trust we all had before ai eroded it. i don't think a slightly-upgraded google search was worth all of this.

My total fuel cost for September so far to drive about 500km is $11.92 - and I don't drive the Mini with a light foot. It's zippy and fun and *quick* - there's no substitute for the instant torque of an EV. 😉 How far will twelve bucks in fuel take you in your gas car? 🤔🤔

Your morbid but valuable thought for the day: Nothing you are self conscious about really matters. None of it. Not your appearance. Not your voice. Not your accomplishments. None of it. Despite it all, someday you'll pass on and someone would give anything to have just a little more of you again.

🇨🇦 CBC Investigates follows a Canadian deported home after 9+ months in ICE detention. The story raises a bigger question: should Canada still treat the U.S. as a safe third country for asylum claims, and where is the line between immigration enforcement and punishment?
