I graduated with around $30K in debt decades ago, but I was an outlier. With that now the average, all else equal there’s simply no way I could have attended uni now. How much talent is our country squandering? How much better off would we all collectively be with free tuition?

I can speak a lot of languages, but I'm still mastering Dog. It seems to have a whistle register.
I don't know why this came up in my YouTube queue, but I salute this person and her committment: #JuliaChild youtube.com/watch?v=Ghrhee…

Today, I'm "Musing among the vegetables."
Happy 50th Anniversary to my song, “I Will Always Love you.” It will always hold a special place in my heart as I hope it does yours ❤️

Dream Journal: Stardate # 2. Had a weirdly detailed dream about being an ensign on Star Trek Voyager.
So, I know I said I was giving up this site last December and I mostly have, but I've now decided to maybe make it more productive instead, and treat it exclusively as a dream journal. Last night I had a dream that included subtitles. #Freud
This bothers me, because as someone who took probably 15 years of Latin that it should read "Happy XI Anniversary." I think I'll quit this site now..
There's so much happening here that is unsaid. The intro of pizza to Canada in 1957 on CBC. * youtube.com/shorts/wrsNkIl… via @YouTube
Ala _Les Miserable_ One load more, another chore to do, Another pile of laundry waiting, oh it's true, The socks and shirts, all tangled up in a mess, But I'll conquer this laundry mountain, I confess. One day more, one load to wash, A battle against stains, I'm not afraid!
Already the longest day of my life, oh look it's 6:10 AM..
Is it bad that when I see fresh strawberries I always eat them with their caps on?It's how they were designed.
Is Siri supposed to look like GhostWriter? #deepcut..
Not to be too morbid, but I've noticed that a lot of cemeteries are next to golf courses, and I propose they combine the two. It would be a space saver. Plus, I wouldn't mind if I knew my tombstone would be on hole ten, with one of those revolving windmills.
Discovered this little monument to textual materialism at a local yard sale:
I've lived in San Francisco and London, two fairly foggy cities. But only Halifax has made me wonder how fog horns work.
Somebody peeled the rainbow flag sticker off my husband's office door today.

So, rather bizarrely, the first literary reference to Triscuits was likely in Baron Corvo's campfest #HadrianVII. Production of the whole wheat wafers began in 1903; Corvo's novel was published in 1904.
