Lol the only thing my parents could ground me from and have it actually matter to me 😆

my mom: yes when you were a child we had to ground you from books because being sent to your room just made you happy

me: ???????????????????!!!!!!!!?????

In Ojibwe our words for ‘I crave for raspberries’ are n’dagadaanan sa miskominan.

Another thing: she asked how my exercise routine was going in January or February. I said it was going okay but I was running into problems walking my dog around town because a pack of wolves was holding the town hostage. 😂

[Alyssa Etsell @alyssaetsell]

Very strange things happen up here that are normal to us. But they’re not really normal because then I think about how when I try to explain the things to my therapist, she laughs incredulously because it’s so surreal. Case in point:

One must hope that a beaver sometimes thinks, yes, this is looking fabulous

@geekingirl The WoLF, not the WoLF, anything but constantly being the WoLF...

#Ramadan starts tomorrow, so I wanted to share a mini guide for coworkers of Muslims ✨

The fact that I’ve seen a total of maybe six other people wearing masks while I’ve been in Alberta the past two and a half days … I’m truly astounded.

[Dylan Robertson @withfilesfrom]

Dr. Tam: "The bottom line is everybody right now, I think, should still wear their mask and keep those layers of measures, no matter where you are in this country. Because even if you don’t see a resurgence now, you’re probably going to, in the next days and weeks"

@gabesimages I started using tru earth laundry strips 1.5 years ago (?) as a way to cut down on plastic (since it all ends up in garbage up here) and I didn’t have very high expectations for them working… but they definitely do and I’ve used them ever since!

Fort Smith residents are being told to shelter in place as police try to apprehend a suspect considered armed and dangerous. RCMP say one person has died. https://t.co/dxjcKeePOt

@thatgrrl I will pay more attention next time I'm in Yellowknife... and I plan to make it to Yukon once the borders all start opening up. That's a great question, sparking my curiosity up again! I'll have to start researching 🤔 Quite a fur trade history up here.

[Alyssa Etsell @alyssaetsell]

@thatgrrl Oh, awesome - I'm glad that article got a new read! I haven't adventured around Yellowknife too much (only been 3 times since I moved up here) or anywhere in the Yukon yet, so I'm not sure... but that's a great question! I assume Yukon must, with the gold rush.

Happy 2021 from Norman and I! Hope it is filled with adventures and magical moments. ✨

@kkmarcs this is a real mood.

@TysonLW @FoxNews I read something mid afternoon today about them realizing a bunch of votes hadn’t been counted. AZ had been 95% reporting I think, and then went down to 84% after 12ish MT.
