Waking up in London to find the US president who wants a peace prize has started yet another war.

I see some posts arguing that everything in Minneapolis is just more of the same that people of color have been living with forever, and white people are just waking up to it. I have never once heard that sentiment, however, from a BIPOC person who’s been living •in Minneapolis• for the last two months.
There is a crucial point there: this •is• precedented. It’s all precedented. But it’s not just more of the same.

Waking up and not needing to go out in the cold to pour gas and pull start a generator is the best thing ever.

Thanks to the random internet person that shared the magic udev formula to stop the computer from waking up when I breath nearby the mouse
All worry is laid to waste.
The endorphins rushing wild from the freezing water,
the music pounding through my body,
the caffeine,
the fucking ducks and the God-roiling sky
– no what-ifs,
no yeah-buts,
no what-abouts,
no caveats, at all.
I am made happy,
and that happiness is entire and incontestable.
And all the way home, I go
— to my beautiful waking wife
– on this, the best day ever.
Love, Nick Cave
Good Morning #Canada
I hope you're waking up to a scrumptious smell from the kitchen because it's National Bacon Day. While you're waiting for it to finish cooking, here are some facts to salivate over:
- Canadian Bacon, aka Back Bacon or Peameal Bacon, is a Canadian invention. It's also healthier than regular bacon, with far less saturated fats
- 42% of Canadians prefer their bacon crispy while 49% enjoy it limp. I assume 9% eat it raw?
- Winnipeg, home of the Bacon Centre of Excellence, is the Bacon Capital of Canada
- Canadians consume over 50M kilos of bacon annually. I ate my 1.25 kilos this year.
- Canadian Bacon, the movie, was a box office flop, only earning $178K on a production budget of $11M
- The average weight of a pig prior to processing is 111.2 kilos
- Canadian producers exported 18.6M kilos of cured bacon and 202K kilos of back bacon
- There are over 14M hogs in Canada
- 82% of Canadians add bacon on their burgers
- Kevin Bacon is not Canadian

I’ve got an appointment with a doctor in two weeks, so that’s just 14 more days of waking up in extreme pain and suffering for anywhere from a few hours to most of the day. (Trying to be positive here!)

Coco Gauff has had the news on in the background almost every day.
The 21-year-old says she “likes to stay informed” and admits it’s been “tough” waking up to news of harsh immigration crackdowns and the killing of protesters back home.
“Everything going on in the US, obviously I’m not really for it.
I don’t think people should be dying in the streets just for existing.
I don’t like what’s going on,”
Gauff said in Dubai on Sunday, referring to the killings of Al…
Oooggghhh I'm sick as fuck and it doesn't even let me sleep. I keep waking up way earlier than expected feeling so dry and beaten up I can't fall asleep again. I just slept like 4 hours 💀
Every day since January 6, 2025 has felt like waking up during surgery with no anesthesia.
OK well I feel yuckier than expected and have grand ambitions of waking up early so im gonna see if it's actually possible for me to fall asleep before 11pm
To look at the bright side: I sincerely hope world leaders today are waking up to what some of us always knew about the Trump presidency.
It’s not a fucking game, political norms will not save you, get your shit together and be ready for this to get real for you.
It’s been real for us for a while.
the absolute hubris of thinking nah it was just the tiniest bit of spotting in the morning, ill be fine and then ofc waking up in a blood puddle
It's that time of year again when the tree outside my windows begins to blossom. This tree is always very early but spring is on the way.
Was a green parakeet in that tree as I was sitting up in bed reading and waking up, and the sun shining directly only my face.

Good read (gift link)
“What liberal democracies need now, more than ever, is the sheer will to go on, without nostalgia for what once was.
The West is feeling its betrayal turn into rage. The world is waking up to both its vulnerability and its value. But better late than never: We’re all Canadian now.”
