Russell Wangersky @wangersky.bsky.social · 28/05/2026I am really tired about all of our futures being played for partisan political advantage. It’s time for us to say “no more.” 021
Russell Wangersky @wangersky.bsky.social · 28/05/202627 degrees here, and the hot nights piano player in the neighbourhood is back. Can only hear them when they have to crack a window, they are across the street but I don’t know what house - and don’t want to know - but they can really play. 120
Russell Wangersky @wangersky.bsky.social · 24/05/2026Best part of every day is cooking dinner while music tumbles along next to me. Chicken breast, garlic mashed, broccoli. John Hiatt. 040
Russell Wangersky @wangersky.bsky.social · 23/05/2026A good day writing, just finishing up editing a new collection of short stories. Remembering, over the last few days, how I love the complexity of words. I miss that. 010

Russell Wangersky @wangersky.bsky.social · 14/05/2026I’ve seen wind warnings and snowfall warnings and tornado warnings- but never until now a dust storm warning. 240
Russell Wangersky @wangersky.bsky.social · 05/05/2026Waited a year to prepare. Something’s coming. Some will be in the Free Press. All of it will be on my substack. 050
Russell Wangersky @wangersky.bsky.social · 30/04/2026Hope to one day be making loaves of rye bread in the failing light of an Adam’s Cove evening. 040
Russell Wangersky @wangersky.bsky.social · 19/04/2026A fine knife made by a Saskatoon knife maker. I lost his card, which is sad - he asks everyone to update him on his knives, good or bad. And this knife is excellent. I wish I could tell him. Such good work. 070
Russell Wangersky @wangersky.bsky.social · 14/04/2026Ok - Polish hot horseradish and old cheddar cheese sandwiches - a great start to the day. 020

Russell Wangersky @wangersky.bsky.social · 12/03/2026Had to read Hansard from 1987-88 for Newfoundland for something I was working on today. Realized essentially everything the govt highlighted in its throne speeches later failed - often, epically. 141
