The willfully unvaccinated aren’t high up on the list of folks I would expect to knowingly do something for the good of others, but this is still handy to know. Canadian Blood Services is encouraging people to donate blood, even if they haven’t been fully vaccinated against COVID-19. Gina Leyva, the territory manager at Canadian …

It’s Awful Out. Let’s Go For A Swim
My brain hurts. But on the bright side, at least it works. That’s more than I can say for the sludge dumps in poor disguise that whoever came up with this have to work with. A householder on the outskirts of Edinburgh wants to create an “innovative” underground tunnel to the outdoor swimming pool in …
It Sounds Like A Miserable Holiday
For years, around Christmas, I would hear this song, but I’d always catch it way too late. I would hear it say something about throwing stones, and then I would hear creepy drums marching off into the distance and it would seem sinister and evil. I would always wonder what the heck it was called …

Aww. What a beautiful song. Aaaaa! That changes everything! *shiver*
Christmas Is Saved!
I have needed to sing the praises of Mastermind toys for a long time now. Let me be clear. I need to sing the praises of the people who run the stores and the people who manage the website and run the chat on it. The rest of the site design, despite the fact that …

I was sad to hear a couple of months ago that Alan Kalter, David Letterman’s announcer for most of his CBS run, had died. I always enjoyed him, as I do a lot of classic announcers. Sadly you don’t hear many voices like those anymore. Digging through some old things just now that I hadn’t …
The Holes In Your Mask Match The Holes In Your Brain
Mesh masks not appropriate PPE in classrooms, Brantford school board says How thick do you have to be to need this clarified? Good lord. Unless you legit don’t know what mesh is because your language doesn’t have a word for it and you can’t look at it or touch it for reasons outside of your …

We’re Not Done, Guys. We Could Still Use Some Help
Ontario rent freeze expires on Jan. 1 This crosses my mind a lot. Not just in the context of the rent freeze, but in a general sense. The pandemic is clearly not over. Yes, we’re in a different place than we were a year ago before we had vaccines, but aside from feeling a bit …
