tinaalsgirl Posted March 15, 2021 Posted March 15, 2021 Well, I know here in the US, the virus has disproportionately affected Black people. Maybe there's a disproportionate rate of Indigenous deaths over the age of 65 from it?
ytterbiumanalyst Posted March 15, 2021 Posted March 15, 2021 Yes. People of colour have a shorter average life span from having to deal with racism. AWESOME that Canada recognizes this and prioritizes the First Nations.
CaptainUnknown Posted March 16, 2021 Posted March 16, 2021 I got my car washed on Friday since the weather was nice. It snowed today. It was nice while it lasted. 1

CaptainUnknown Posted April 19, 2021 Posted April 19, 2021 I went into my kitchen 3 times within a half hour. To turn on the oven, to put a pizza into the oven, and to pull the pizza out of the oven. The whole time, my cat is sleeping on a chair in the adjacent room. The only time she wanted to cuddle was when I went to grab my pizza from the oven.
Nrthwnd Posted April 19, 2021 Posted April 19, 2021 ^ Yep. Cats happen. Came back a couple of hours ago, from getting my first vaccine shot. And so far ..... no growing scales or fur, losing hair, eyesight's fine ..... doo dah. 2

Nrthwnd Posted May 23, 2021 Posted May 23, 2021 Baking My Very First Loaf of Bread, today! Really easy recipe, that involves a dutch oven, and overnight 'rising.' Results soon to follow...

Nrthwnd Posted May 29, 2021 Posted May 29, 2021 ^ Wellll ..... my first loaf had not 'risen' enough, but was still awesome to eat. (And I froze 1/2 of the loaf, as I will for all three "plain white" breads I create and bake. To "compare.") My second loaf (today) was bigger, and way more 'spongy' than I like. But it did pay to whisk all the dry ingredients together, before adding the water. Also, I put 1/4 cup more water than usual (1-1/2cups) and the dough was "hard to control," as far as reshaping it for a second rise. And most importantly, this is not a bread to allow overnight rising. I let too many hours go by (12+), when it should have been only 6-8 hours' rising time, as recommended. But still, a great loaf to eat. Tuesday, I am going to now start it in the morning, and end up baking Bread #3 in late afternoon. Which is probably for the best. Stay tuned for The Big Finish! (And I will have photos to show the differences between the 3 loafs, etc. And I may start The BREAD Thread! here, since I cannot be The Only One who has been baking up loaves during these times, yes? No?)
Nrthwnd Posted June 16, 2021 Posted June 16, 2021 Overheard, earlier on the bus..... "Well honey, we're gonna go totally random, tonight!"
Nrthwnd Posted June 20, 2021 Posted June 20, 2021 I had a nice day, earlier. A friend had organized a picnic get together, for several queers, us included. Went off great, and I took (2) new loaves of bread to share with others. It was a nice afternoon. This was "one of those loaves...." Cheddar and jalapeno, mmmmmmm.
RCT3Bross Posted September 1, 2021 Posted September 1, 2021 Feeling extremely lucky today. Did something very dumb and lucky for me it didn't blow up in my face. Guess today was one of those days.

CaptainUnknown Posted October 6, 2021 Posted October 6, 2021 At work, my coworker used the toilet. And the toilet would not stop flushing. As in, it was in a constant state of flush. How badly do you have to shit where even the toilet needs to wash its mouth out? 1
Nrthwnd Posted October 16, 2021 Posted October 16, 2021 letting out a big slow sigh ... while listening to some astounding piano playing, classical, but FIERCE! that's it. thanks for the space.
Nrthwnd Posted October 20, 2021 Posted October 20, 2021 on reflection ......... we have bought waaaaaaay too much candy for this Halloween's give out!
CaptainUnknown Posted October 26, 2021 Posted October 26, 2021 I saw what looked like a crack in my windshield and my sphincter tightened a little bit as I can't really afford to get it taken care of right now. When I inspected it further, it was a mosquito splattered on my windshield.
