Keep in mind that teams have to match their uniform colors to their rocks. Red rocks = dark uniforms, yellow rocks = light uniforms (white or yellow)

Pray you once more,
Is not your father grown incapable
Of reasonable affairs? Is he not stupid
With age and alt’ring rheums? Can he speak? Hear?
Know man from man? Dispute his own estate?
Lies he not bed-rid? And again does nothing
But what he did being childish?

Very much enjoying rereading some classic #curling articles from 2013 - 2014 written by @matttomic.bsky.social. I've been quoting these for a decade but haven't read the articles for years since the links went dead. Husband found them for me today, yay!

Oh my goodness. This is a terrible loss. I am so sad for her friends and family, and this includes you, Devin.

You did see this as well! I thought I heard military jets this morning so had a look at my ADS-B station once I got up and saw this.

Here's a weird one - an American KC-135 Stratotanker orbiting Vancouver this morning. He seems to be heading back south now. @petervogel.bsky.social did you see this?

Another #NoTyrants protest on Vancouver Island - 50+ people in Parksville, BC, Canada on a soggy day! #elbowsup

It seems to have been a small grass-roots effort. I just stumbled across a FB post about a No Tyrants protest in Parksville that then shared the info about the Nanaimo event.

Small but mighty group of about 40 in rainy Nanaimo, BC, Canada. Standing with our American friends and reminding everyone #Never51!

If you have time to put your Big Games Forecaster hat on...55+ BC Games are in Nanaimo Wed Sept 9 - Sat Sept 13. I'm on LOC. Thoughts on rain and smoke for that time period?

The horrifying part is that this is being marketed as reality to half of the fucking USA.

#MountUnderwoodFire smoke plume sunrise at #DepartureBay #Nanaimo. Much cooler today, less windy though still breezy, and no smoke smell at ground level. Hoping for better conditions for fire fighting crews over the next few days.
