frandroid: Montréal Canadians NHL team logo (hockey)
My long-suffering Podcast Friday queue will not get any reprieve as I just pluck from a currently playing series to bring in particular to [profile] ioklopon's attention:
Canadaland Commons has been looking at the underbelly of Canadian hockey, and boy is it nasty. Seriously wondering if there's any other sport/national system in the world where there is such a density of nastiness, from corruption to child abuse/sexual abuse, and of course our good old friend racism. (Yeah I see you raising your hand in the back, U.S. Gymnastics :( )

I gotta pair this with probably the best and most bitter song ever written about hockey.

Attended the coöp's Grounds Committee meeting tonight. (My first in-person, post-lockdown meeting about anything I think! I and one other person were masked. Actually, I was going to stay unmasked until I saw her. Why am I so insecure?) A no-nonsense meeting––a rarity! After the meeting, I went to the garden and collected some of the arugula from our out of control bush, then took basil from a couple of neighbours' gardens. Then I came up home, had a fight with F and made pesto for Thursday's pasta.

I just realized that I missed comrade's online Canadian Politics course, which I intended to attend. This was week 3. Or 4? Damn it. I need to put it in my calendar. Funny idea, putting a course in my calendar. Anyway, now I have ANOTHER book to catch up on.
