A #bread batch started, but using a special flour. It's an organic white unbleached AP from "la Milanaise" in Montreal. They supply the flour for the "Mamie Clafoutis" patisserie near our old house.

Hoping tasty things result. 11.5% protein.

Glad it's not difficult to buy Canadian in the bread department, as we're a powerhouse in the grains and cereals sector.

Anybody got any thoughts on a viable Discord replacement that I can use for playing games with relatively non-technical friends?

I'd prefer a low-cost SaaS approach, if the data is not stored in the US, but I'm willing to self-host, if it's not overly complex to maintain.

I really only need text chat and the ability to create group VoIP calls, but it's going to be very hard to convince people to move to a dated application like Mumble, and unfortunately not all participants are Canadians or Europeans who will understand the need to take a bit of pain.

Curious what people are doing in this space.

Small #bookbinding update! I've been dormant since little one came in October but I'm getting ready to dust my tools off soon.

I recently purchased a new laptop case from a great #Canadian #Etsy shop that specializes in making crafts from old kimonos. The artist offers packs of scrap pieces perfect for A5 journals. Really excited to get started!

The #Framework Laptop 13 is a slightly unusual size and aspect ratio. So, instead of getting a case that "kind of" fits, I had one custom made from this great #Canadian artist from #Quebec on #Etsy who specializes in making things from kimono fabrics. This is my second one from them and the quality of both is excellent. If you are in the market for a new case, please give their shop a look:

@cbcnews Your headline: “Should Canada turn the other cheek?” is so offensive that words fail me. We are not ever contemplating “turning the other cheek”. We are promoting #BuyCanadian, we are building new trade agreements, we are loudly proclaiming our Canadian pride and posting #ElbowsUp. You should be reinforcing this rather than trying to play devil’s advocate. There is no negotiating with evil, no pacifying a bully. #ShameOnYou. #FourthEstateFilth cbc.ca/news/canada/tariffs-ret

CBCSome countries aren't retaliating against Trump's tariffs. Should Canada 'turn the other cheek'? | CBC NewsFaced with tariffs imposed by U.S. President Donald Trump, some countries have decided, so far, to respond by turning the other cheek, and not retaliate with their own duties.

It was not in my bingo cards for Buy Local to become a trend due to the sudden increase in unreliability of the US in trade et al.

But the climate and your local industry thank you.

There are #buyEuropean #buyCanadian and #buyMexican initiatives that I know of.

For Europe:

But please avoid buying even more Unilever or Nestlé stuff.

And remember that small indy sellers of artwork, music, games, etc are not the same as the american oligarchy.

US produce wears out welcome with Victoria, British Columbia grocery store

The store says it has made moves to source all 380 of its fruits and vegetable from non-American growers

“Prior to all of this, one of our most popular spinach was Popeye Spinach. We used to sell 60 to 80 bags a day of that stuff,” said Innis. “In the last week that we had it, we sold two bags. That’s a message.”

We really need to save #Canada from those Canadian media channels and companies owned by Americans.

It is not because they are conservative-leaning. They are low-key normalizing those attacks against Canada and undermining our responses.

Support CBC and independent local and indie media.

Buy from Canada as much as possible. Alternatives exist, although it might require shopping in person or take longer to find and receive if ordered online. Cost is all over the place, sometimes cheaper, sometimes a bit more expensive. Today I ordered some products from 2 Canadian retailers that in the past I would have purchased through Amazon. Took a bit of time searching. Less convenient, but it is possible. Plenty of smaller Canadian retailers!
