@NianticHelp Thank you for looking into it!

[Charlotte Cowie @charcowie]

@NianticHelp My daughter tried to get help with a remote raid issue via support chat yesterday, but the form she's supposed to fill out crashes her app and she can't fill out the form. Is there another way she can send the info?

[Charlotte Cowie @charcowie]

@NianticHelp Thanks for the reply! I've replied to your DM.

Watched #Hamilfilm this afternoon with my kids and it is SO GOOD, you guys.

[Charlotte Cowie @charcowie]

My kids and I finished reading @nathanwpyle's Stranger Planet tonight and then they wandered around the house singing "Ohhhhh I want to flail with a being!" instead of going to bed.

New flash fiction submissions call!

[InterstellarFlightPress @IntFlightPress]

Good morning! Today we are launching a new initiative. We’re opening submissions to BIPOC for flash fiction at pro rates. https://t.co/Or4j9EKyqG

@fionawren Yeah, I think we'll be spending some nights tenting in My Backyard. But it's close to flushing toilets (and a fridge, for chilled wine), there's that.

[Charlotte Cowie @charcowie]

@fionawren I have to look at it with a map of the provincial parks so I can figure out where they all are because I have no idea, lol (we usually go to Dinosaur).

[Charlotte Cowie @charcowie]

@fionawren @Albertaparks I'm honestly afraid to even try.

[Charlotte Cowie @charcowie]

I'm restarting my freelance editing business after taking a few years off for family and now I've got a serious case of analysis paralysis. Especially since this isn't really the best time to be launching anything. 😕

Getting ready to go into a goblin-filled cave (after watching Leeroy Jenkins as a cautionary tale):

10 year old: *takes a deep breath*

Me: You're only supposed to do recon.

10 year old, whispering: Merlaaaaaa Goodbarrel!

12 year old: Oh god, we're gonna die.

@fionawren Perhaps N needs some cordial. 😂

I had to make substitutions to accommodate food allergies, but this is delicious.

Missing your IKEA meatball fix? We’ve created a recipe for you to recreate this delicious dish in the comfort of your own home #IKEAmeatballs

What counts as excitement these days: waiting to hear back to see if I'm eligible for covid-19 testing.

It's not nearly as exciting as it sounds.

@wes_chu My son is (still) allergic to eggs and I'm celiac so we watch people eat sausage and egg McMuffins.

Apparently this is "not a spectator sport" so we go through the drive-through now.

[Charlotte Cowie @charcowie]

I mean, I would do this normally.

[Charlotte Cowie @charcowie]

@jmsullivanbooks I’m going to try. My kids signed up for the Young Writer’s Program, so they’re going to try too.

[Charlotte Cowie @charcowie]

@fionawren I got a printing book because Dude needs to practice his writing, too. I also got an ADHD workbook for him, because...yeah. Lol.

[Charlotte Cowie @charcowie]

My six year old is calling the outbreak “the corona apocalypse” but I have to say, this is not the apocalypse was expecting.

Honestly, I thought there would be more zombies.
