But if you ask anyone under 50 what 867-5309 means they will stare at you blankly

Ours was forest green. I still remember the licence plate number (and the plate numbers of other cars my parents had in the 70s and 80s).

Thanks! I’m looking to upgrade my phone soon. The zoom is not good.

I grew up riding in a 1970s Volvo station wagon with a β€œvery back”, so I agree!

This cold or whatever it is (probably not COVID; I tested negative) has been very tenacious. Glad you were able to go on your trip.

Finally able to do my exercising with weights after barely moving all week due to illness. It went surprisingly well, other than some coughing fits caused by the deeper breathing. I don’t seem to have lost any strength or flexibility as I feared I might.

Still sick and lying on the couch bored and going stir crazy, but my darling child phoned me for an hour-long chat and that has cheered me up considerably 😊

The fastest route to full-on misanthropy is communal apartment laundry

I don’t think a photo would turn out well, at least not with my phone, and I’m too lazy to get out my proper camera with the better zoom lens (the river is kinda far away).

I must leave it to your imagination :)

The river I see from my window changes colour depending on weather conditions. Today it looks green. Other times it’s blueish, silver, or gunmetal grey.

Thinking a lot today about how much of that disablism comes from people who identify as progressives and fail to understand how disablism, eugenics, and larger histories of oppression are deeply tied to one another. That includes, BTW, disabled people who fail to engage with overlapping oppressions.

the worst part is we actually made good progress on a lot of the right lessons (given congressional resource constraints) and then it all got blown to hell by the worst people you know

This might be the greatest split-screen ever broadcast.

They’ll play this in museums in future.

I’m the orange one in the second row who looks very annoyed.

While the Iran War serves as cover, Israel is carpet bombing entire neighborhoods in Beirut, a 5,000 year old city of 2.4 million people.

Israel’s bombing campaigns have already displaced close to a million people in Lebanon.

If I ever do go to a Costco, there’s a very good chance it will be the downtown one. It’s close to a SkyTrain station.

Be sure to have a deep fried Mars bar for dessert.
