More Swedish Nonsense
This country is just out of control. C’mon, you guys. I know this video is from around twenty or more years ago, but you’re still offending me. If it’s not this completely offensive macro “Perfect” video, it’s your country taunting us in a micro fashion by imitating it with the one terrifically-adorable, hunky guy in…

I don’t believe in this whatsoever, Jawn.
…but maybe having temperature-controlled rooms in your rich-man apartment to protect your fur coats–while bleating “imagine no posessions” to your avaricious, rapacious Boomer audience–might actually have had something to do with it all. Never mind. Good song, though.

Have I Ever Talked About How Much I Despise Summer?
Because I do. I really, really do. How could anyone like this nonsense?! I loathe this season. I absolutely hate everything about this time of year. I would do anything to not be here, in Vancouver, on this roasting planet, right here and right now. And every summer is going to be worse than the…

Fairly cute at 50…
…but I am scheduled to get some injectables in my face. I can’t wait; I’m not taking this “getting old” thing too well, particularly while having to endure it in this psychopathic, violent, woman-despising patriarchy (and there is no other kind of patriarchy). As Courtney Love said many years ago, “Being able to buy beauty…

Writing prompt (which I haven’t done in ages)
“Get an education, and don’t get pregnant.” This was passed down from my mother, an exceptionally competent, professional, and brilliant woman who heard it from her own mother–my Russian grandmother. My baba lived in the interior of British Columbia, could not speak English, had a husband die from Parkinson’s-related disease, and was left with four…

To The Half-Douk, With Love
That’s the only existing picture of Victor Bonderoff I could find online; I have none of my own. This had to be the 70s. Or maybe it’s the 80s. I really don’t know. I hadn’t thought about Victor in several years. Our last bit of communication was back in the summer of 2018, and it…

That’s How I’m Feeling
I am honestly fairly drained from the events of this month, although I have a certain sane spring in my step again (intentional alliteration). December was s’posed to be great, I thought, but it went a little bit pear-shaped for a confluence of reasons. That’s okay. It all ended up working out for the better,…

My forties.

Daily Writing Prompt, in which I barely had to write a thing.
You get one guess, folks.

I completely get it, my brother…I get it.
Went for a walk around my beloved, priceless Seawall in a foggy, near-monsoon today. It was incredible; the place was almost completely deserted, and thus a whole new and inspiring experience. Walked down one of the set of beach steps and stayed down there for a long while, getting soaked despite my Vancouver rain gear.…
