Pissed Off Canadian

I've been watching the poll results roll in from municipal elections in Ontario... lots of changes, but also some significant re-elections. I'm going to need a while to take it all in.

Medium chocolate sundae. I deserve this.

So you're telling me an entire gang of bishops had a chance to splash that evil demon with holy water to end this global nightmare forever AND DECIDED NOT TO?! religionnews.com/2026/10/23/c...

Tonight's fine dining: Hooker Harvey's! IYKYK.

This sign at the island airport kills me every time. I feel like an East German tunneling my to freedom in the West. 😆

The worst is over. I'm still in occasional pain from deep muscle bruising & damage from pain-induced spasms, but only while sitting: standing or laying flat is fine. All should resolve itself in the next couple of days.

Happy Thanksgiving! 🇨🇦🦃🥧

Kidney stone, left side. This is going to be a rollercoaster of a night. 😫

Ya think?!

New glasses and a haircut!* *Not at the same shop.

Never underestimate the power of the engineering rodents.

Heavy objects were lifted. 🏋️💪

Behold my banana bread mini-loaves! 🍌

A little freshly ground black pepper adds a lot to the frying eggs. 🍳

And I just discovered by biting into one that my breakfast sausage is something unexpected. These are "brown sugar & honey" flavoured IMPOSTER breakfast sausages, not the plain & unflavoured ones I had expected. FML.

Well, that was fun. 😑 A can of Coke Zero fell out of the fridge, then developed a line of pinhole leaks across one side. It then rocket-propelled itself across the kitchen, spraying Coke onto me and every available surface. This day is not starting well.

I deserve a sundae today.

I'm making new friends! 😍

DO NOT FAT-SHAME BIKES!!! 🚲

Management committee meeting. 🐱

Breakfast sausages in progress!

Christening a baby is nothing like christening a ship. I know that now. Once again I can only apologise.

Just paid an installment of property tax on our house. I get the necessity of paying taxes and we do get platinum services for our money, but that's 750 medium chocolate sundaes I now can't buy self-indulgently. 💸

Walkies!

Sorry I'm late, I had to reorganize the shopping carts in the grocery store's corral.

Haircut ✅ Flu shot ✅ COVID shot ✅ Happy Pre-Friday!

How about next Monday? I'll clear my calendar. youtu.be/hkTgYiMDRHY?...

All dressed up for a memorial service this afternoon.

This is so beautiful I may burst into tears... 🥲

The management is taking a break. 😺

Last week, I managed to reach £55/200, but all of that has now been spent and I have a couple of overdue bills that I really need to pay to avoid my internet and phone being cut off, plus some more for milk and something to go with the mashed potato I have in my fridge. Can anyone help?

Eggs will be up in a minute! 🌞

Tonight's entertainment:

I was just reminded: I plan to retire one year from today. I may push out the actual date to Dec 31, 2027, if work projects require it, but the working goal currently is Sept 1.

I've finished diversifying my retirement accounts away from AI bubble companies & their related suppliers. The entire AI industry may now go to hell at its earliest convenience.

The gym was closed again today, with a new sign on the door lacking any re-opening date. I. Am. Very. Disappointed.

What can economic theory tell us about winning a trade war? It tells us that solidarity means more than GDP. www.bugeyedandshameless.com/p/the-game-t...

My gym has been closed for three days because of a water main issue. If it isn't open tomorrow, I will be extremely disappointed. Like dad levels of disappointment. Weaponized disappointment. Disappointment that has ended civilizations and toppled gods. Do not disappoint me.
