Halfway through my first year of education and it’s amazing how much I already identify as an educator. Teaching art on Saturdays doesn’t hurt.

That said, I’m becoming aware of many ways that the education system perpetuates and creates inequalities, and I want it to be better

You know you might be a leftist when your response to the $69 price tag on a small bag of your cat’s food is “the employees who work for this company had better all have benefits and retirement plans!”

Dear world: this year has been a pretty amazing one for me in terms of accomplishments. And staying in good health. And language skill development. Please help me celebrate that. I need this.

My cat would like you to know that she is in fact a fluffy princess and she would very much like scritches under her chin

Momma I’m cute!

Today I read cards for my friend and her family. All good except that they all got the magic card combination where it meant they get run over by the dump truck. What are the chances?

You know you might be an artist when you are genuinely put out and surprised that you can’t find India ink in your apartment after several moves. I have a faux codex to write!

@mazonianfeline Mommy I LOOOOOOOOVE you so much. So so much…! Yes, my bowl is empty. You noticed. I can stop being cute. Feed me bitch.

Extraño español. Amo mucho francés, pero no es el idioma de mi antepasados y no lo siento lo mismo con sus sonidos. Necesito más gente con quien yo puedo comunicar en español en mi vida. Extraño mi cultura.

Sometimes I feel like my cat is genuinely confused with my morning routine. First I get OUT of bed. Then I voluntarily get wet. Then I drink bean juice. Then I leave her alone.

Somedays I don’t know why I do it either.

What happens when you let your cat tell you how to study literacy. Not shown: hot chocolate and French language literacy videos

@mazonianfeline I was browsing kijiji ads for a black and white cat when I saw her picture and said « that’s my cat! ». I bused 1.5 hours to where her foster mom lived. She was so shy she would barely come near me but I knew she was my baby. Now she’s possessive as hell

I will never stop being busy.

@NourHadidi Can you explain toxic masculinity to me in 100 words or less?

[Daniela Canela @LaDanielaCanela]

I graduated 2o years ago. That is not ok

@mazonianfeline I didn’t mean to stay up reading

I’ve decided that I need a travel mug that says Mme Daniela on it for my art classes and practicum next year. Where would I get a high quality colourful vinyl sticker made?
