Some books I buy to read now. Some books I buy to read at an undefined "later." Browsing my shelves is exciting when I know there are books there that I've yet to really encounter.
That's an incredible post. Thank you for sharing it!
To become a Canadian citizen you'd have to start by emigrating here, then get your Permanent Resident status, and then apply for citizenship.
Here's some general information in immigrating to Canada: https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/immigrate-canada.html
What is this game?
That's really cool! Are you an astronomer? Or if not, how do you get telescope access?
I like spring a lot, but I definitely prefer winter to summer. Hot weather does not agree with me!
- Canada (I live here)
- USA (many many family/friend visits since I was a child; also lived there for ~6 years as an adult)
- England (one week in London, one week in the South Downs)
- Denmark (three weeks for a family visit)
- France (a weekend in Paris)
- Belgium (about 2-3 days in Bruges)
- The Netherlands (about 2-3 days in Delft)
- Germany (roughly 6 hours, driving from Belgium to Denmark)
Oh! I had one just like that when I was a kid!
Maybe stepping back slowly could help. Like if there are three AI tools that you usually rely on, this week only use two of them, then the next week only use one, etc.
I'm not sure about online sources, but this is a solid reference book: https://editors.ca/publications/editing-canadian-english/
Oh yes, I see now!
Moss stitch is a great one to learn if you ever want to do things like blankets or scarves. Visually it's about as dense as single crochet, but has a lot more drape. It's a favourite of mine! https://easycrochet.com/moss-stitch-crochet-tutorial/
That's adorable! I have no patience at all for doing amigurumi so I always find things like this extra impressive :)
It looks like maybe a variant of moss stitch for the body/feathers? Hard to tell from the photo.
Intimacy coordinators aren't explaining how sex works to the actors, but helping to make sure that they're comfortable with each other & what they're being asked to do. They're analogous to stunt coordinators in that way.
Part of this is helping actors to work through or find accommodations when they could be running up against situations that could trigger old traumas. So if one party has a history of assault, for example, the intimacy coordinator will work with them and their scene partner to make sure that what they're acting out doesn't mimic/mirror their experience.
Does that make sense?
They look like they're probably "Naughty Marietta" marigolds (#21 on this list: https://gardenerspath.com/plants/flowers/best-marigold-varieties/). Could also be "Legion of Honour" (#14).
Lol I can't read today
You replied to a comment instead of the OP, so your answer looks a little funny from being out of context, that's all.
My spouse and I were broke grad students with a baby on the way. We needed a car. Someone in our tiny town was selling a 1992 Accord for $1000 (this was in the early 2010s). We bought it and put in another $1000 to get it to run.
The only problem? It was a stick shift. I didn't know how to drive standard; at the time, my spouse didn't drive at all. I tried to learn, but I was so nauseated from my pregnancy that I nearly puked every time the car lurched... which was often. I never did get the hang of it. Eventually we bought a newer automatic car and traded the Accord in for a whopping $250.
These days we could weather a $2000 mistake without too many problems, but back then... yeah, that one hurt.
I saw sen-tar as well!
I use a mix of the two depending on the word.
Hello, may I introduce you to Canadian English?
