Seems decent. I made spaghetti sauce last night and used about 1/2 cup of minced garlic, plus a good dump of garlic powder (they have different flavour notes, I do both usually).

A single clove of garlic? Per portion, at least.

OK, this is wild.

In September 2023, geophysicists across the world started monitoring a very odd signal coming from the ground under them.

It was picked up in the Arctic. And Antarctica. It was detected everywhere, every 90 seconds, as regular as a metronome, for *nine days*.

What the HELL?

Honestly this method is way better than doors. When it’s occupied, you get to wait a respectful distance away. Plus if a bear wanders by, you see it immediately instead of scaring both of you when you open the door!

I worked in the paleomagnetics lab at the Pacific Geoscience Centre that Ted Irving founded. He was there when I was, he was a super nice guy. Years later, I find out he is a legend, and his paleomagnetic research led to the confirmation of Alfred Wegener’s theory of continental drift.

Footage of the meteor that lit up the sky tonight - caught by live cameras in Deep Cove. Sonic boom a couple of minutes later, strong enough to shake homes across the Lower Mainland.

Wow! 🀯

Maple, now 3.5 years old, curled up on the same striped bed. She barely fits, she is curled up like a croissant. Shes approximately 75 lbs in this photo, doing her best to fit on the bed.

Things that drive me bonkers: discourse on a topic where people let their feelings override factual evidence that their feelings are in fact incorrect.

Remember this in December when people are mad that sunrise is after 9am.

I remain convinced that one of the best marketing campaigns was convincing people that β€œThe Cloud” was some kind of magical non-physical place, and not ugly windowless buildings that consume electricity and water in seemingly endless amounts

Do I know that my taxes will go up if my governments step up and build housing for my neighbours who need it?

Yes.

Do I still want my governments step up and build housing for my neighbours who need it?

Still YES!

We’ve all seen the cost of not doing it, right?

I rather enjoyed finding out that my tax dollars were at work directly funding the creation of art like Heated Rivalry, showing the world that queer joy does exist.
