@veryloudwoman And one more category, audiobooks I loved which are exclusively memoirs because my cute little brain likes them when I need to focus on a task:
-the Paris Hilton memoir
-I’m glad my mom died
-becoming by Michelle Obama

[k. @verbosityinAB]

@veryloudwoman For fantasy that doesn’t involve dragons:
Heartless Hunter
Ember in the Ashes series
A Fate Inked in Blood

[k. @verbosityinAB]

@veryloudwoman Yellowface
Remarkably Bright Creatures
Firekeeper’s Daughter
Maame
Looking For Jane (do not sleep on this one!!)

And one I’m eagerly anticipating because it comes so highly reviewed:
All the colors of the Dark

Currently drafting in my ‘mom league’ fantasy football draft for probably my favourite fantasy team of all, The Philadelphia Kegels.

If there are two topics I receive the most messages asking for advice about they are definitely miscarriages and Disney vacation planning, and nothing better highlights the juxtaposition of my life than that.

Telling my kids this is super woman.

[Rob Williams @RobTheHockeyGuy]

This is the attempt that won Alysha Newman her first-ever Olympic medal.

Up and over the bar at 4.85m 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦

No one makes me love being Canadian like @Devin_Heroux does, can he run for prime minister?

[Lola @justkeeprunin71]

Inspired by bacon.

Also to be clear, I agreed with her and she got a pass on this one ;)

Print them on our currency, the resilience and passion of these women is everything I want to be as a Canadian.

[Rick Westhead @rwesthead]

Canada's women's national soccer team to play Germany in the quarter-finals on Saturday. Remarkable, considering the stress the players have had to navigate the past days.

[k. @verbosityinAB]

Devin Heroux is a national treasure.

[k. @verbosityinAB]

Have not cheered as loud as I am in this rugby game since the Oilers playoff run 😅

[k. @verbosityinAB]

Does anyone else feel like Brenda Irving and Kyle Shewfelt are barely disguising contempt for each other half the time?

[k. @verbosityinAB]

For someone who actually hates swimming with a passion themselves, I sure am passionate about watching my fellow Canadians excel in the pool 😅

It’s the best family sporting event in town, and it’s not close.
Oil Kings and Stingers are also great, but the fan interaction after Riverhawks games is an experience second to none for a family friendly sporting event.

[Edmonton Riverhawks @EdmRiverhawks]

For the second year in a row, we've set a NEW West Coast League single-season attendance record! This summer, we’ve welcomed an incredible 116,871 fans, smashing our previous record of 104,748!

We couldn’t do any of this without you, our amazing fans.

Thank you. Thank you. 🤍

@Mallardjumps @CBCOlympics @petrocanada @FencingCanada Was it broadcast on tv while it was live blanket?

[k. @verbosityinAB]

@AndrewBrethauer It was a pre-recorded spot about Summer McIntosh, which is lovely but also probably could have been pushed to show the live medal win since it’s still live coverage between the recorded spots? They were streaming it online so they had the feed, they just didn’t broadcast it.

[k. @verbosityinAB]

Is there seriously a Canadian competing for Canada’s first ever fencing medal and it’s not being broadcast? Currently watching on live stream but super disappointed that TSN is broadcasting filler content over this.
