17 years ago my husband and I were visiting a friend in Nova Scotia to see if we wanted to move here (we did) and she knew Dan Blenkinship and arranged for a private tour of the site, so we got to see the money pit, 10X and had tea with Dan and his wife. A great experience to have after reading about Oak Island as Brit kid

This one in particular gets my goat

I hated Reddit towards the end and I'm loving the Fediverse, it feels like the internet of the 90's

I'll be staying here, I quite reddit a while back and I prefer the fediverse to the corporate hellsites

Just a reproduction of the old r/yarn on the other site, a place to swap, sell and give away yarn. I thought I would set up a Canada only version

I like it so far, been trying to create a community all day and that hasn't worked though, but I'm patient

I loved frames and will not hear a word said against them

It's starting to feel like the 90's again, but without frames ;-) I haven't felt this engaged with the internet in years

I bounce between being angrily out and worried about the safety of my family. I'm not worried so much about the politicians here in Canada, I don't believe that the the alt right rhetoric will win them government, but I do worry about the nutjobs they will inspire to act out violently.

I noticed this year that while my town was drowning in rainbows this time last year, there are maybe 2 or 3 on businesses and I haven't seen one on houses this year.

So, sadly, m'husband and I have agreed that there will be no Pride flag on the house this year and we'll walk the pride march with a careful eye on the protesters who will turn up.
