Ah, excellent. Thank you so much!

That's awesome!

Do you know if the Pinecrest bridge will get any similar treatment in the coming days, especially with the new LRT station opening there? I walk across the Pinecrest bridge almost daily, and it's... not ideal, especially in winter.

They're teenagers.

I'll have it next time!

My fashion sense is unique, which is useful when heading out to writing meetups. People recognise me (though several said it took them a second because my hair wasn't pink. I need to fix that)

I have the first two boxed sets! They're great!

I was really hoping you wouldn't be a NIMBY.

We need developments like this next to the LRT. It'll get more people using transit and off the roads, decrease housing prices, and prevent sprawl.

Clearly, he's hungry and needs it. How dare you not share! (/s)

The cover of my 2nd novel, On the Shoulders of Demons. It shows Samuli looking over his burning home.

Cover Reveal!

On the Shoulders of Demons, coming Q2 2026!

You look stunning!

Getting back up to my 585 pound squat. Didn't break parallel here, but I still had some in the tank after. Going to take another stab at it next week.

I thought polishing my 2nd novel would be a 20-30 hour endeavor. Instead, it's a 120-hour endeavor. Minimum.

Sigh.

But this shows how much I've grown as a writer. I had already gone over this prose so many times, and I still can make it so much more gorgeous.

I used to use Scriviner, but not anymore. Now I just have a Google keep file I paste all the links in. Works great.

It was great seeing you!

I'll be the 400 pound enby in a kilt! Can't miss me!

I'll be at the first one! I look forward to hearing you talk!

Editing with @thelauramcgill.bsky.social :

Laura: I have a few ideas about how to make your novel even stronger. If —

Me: Yep, you're right about everything. So let me read you a poem about coward trees.

Laura: What‽ No, I think you'll want to discuss—

Me: Coward. Trees.

$1k? Shit.

I hope you get well soon. I'm cheering for you!

Usual rugby has 15 players on per team. This makes it a slower game with more hitting because there's not much space.

7s has 7 players per team. This makes it a wide open field with lots of running.

I am built for hitting, not running.

Me at the ABBA experience with my sister.

Last rugby tournament of the season! (It was 7s. Why do I hate myself?)

And then ABBA Experience with my sister!

You look epic!

Thank you for sharing your story.

Always great seeing more Chris!

That's awesome! Congratulations, Emmanuel!

I'm glad that Ottawa is moving toward having a more grown-up vibe!

I would say that this is still a little bit sanitized, though. There are drag bars, but what about gay bars? T's pub is one of the busiest places in Ottawa at night, and it isn't here because there's no section for gay bars.

Happy pride!

You look so cute in that first picture!
