I was today years old when I realized almost 40% of Canada lives in Ontario.

Good place for them...   BC sucks.  You don’t want to be here...

I hope Americans also get the message.  Canada is so boring. Canada is such a crappy place. Nobody from America should want to come to Canada right now. It's a terrible place for vacations, with the year round freezing temperatures, rampaging moose and bears, goose poop everywhere, and so on.

So things haven't been going that great.  I've been under a lot of pressure at work and have been feeling constantly stressed out. Lindsey was sobbing last weekend because I've been distant and she felt like I didn't love her anymore. I feel like I'm just barely holding together.

I got a pixie cut.  My hair is naturally curly and while it's admittedly gorgeous, it's so time-consuming and expensive.  It's not something straight-haired people understand, but curly hair is very high maintenance.

My kid says I look like a Karen but IDGAF.  I get out of the shower and run my fingers through my hair and I'm done. 

I feel like I have been unshackled, it's an amazing feeling.

This wave against people named Karen confuses me. I thought we were moving away from broad, derogatory, race-based generalizations that tar a large group of diverse people with the same brush.

I agree, 'Karen' irks me to to end.  My kid is 10 though, it's the way they talk and trying to reason about a zeitgeist Tik Tok expression has been a futile battle.  She was not being nice when she said I look like a Karen.

Another social media term that is thankfully going away which irks me is 'ok boomer'.  I immediately lose respect and I'm not even a boomer.

I got a shaver and did my head, asked my wife how it looked and she said I missed a spot.  I went back and hit it again except this time without the attachment I'd taken off to finish up my sideburns.  So there I was back to square one.

My kid said 'way to go Bob' which I've been given to understand is a male Karen. The feel of my stubble running thru my fingers is blissfully weird.  So to is the look on anyone's face when I ask them to give it try.

Drying chanterelle mushrooms in the dehydrator today.  Went out and picked a few pounds yesterday and was surprised at how many are out this early... moist summer = early shrooms.

Look out for Cortinarius speciosissimus. They're sneaky.

The species name is changed to rubellus.   But I honestly don’t see how anyone can mistake those for chanterelles....  they aren’t that close!

ETA:  if I don’t ever post again, then you can say of the above: “famous last words”.
