Daylight savings is an outdated concept that is no longer really relevant, hope this helps ☺️💕

clocks roll back and my annual 6 month long beef with the tilt of the earth begins yet again

[abirddogmoment]

Literally nowhere I'd rather be after a day at the office

[sokovianfortune]

i hate that every single year i hit this point of "oh my god this writing slump is NEVER going to end, i am going to be APATHETIC AND TALENTLESS FOREVER" like no girl. it's just february. you'll be fine.

1906.

it does cast a pall though over the whole damn day the clock moved forward the hour lost the morning back to pitch darkness for a few more weeks even when it hasn't happened yet it just ruins the whole damn thing

[dihalect]

oh so THAT’S why i woke up early

[chaoticfandomthot]

I love autumn but for fuck's sake let me keep the sun a while longer i'm already sad enough

[slow-drowned-angels]

It gets dark so early now :(

Things I have learned while living in Maritime Canada for the last 6 months, as a person who was born and raised in Arizona:

Fog makes things wet. One of my most shocking revelations tbh. It seems so obvious in retrospect, but somehow it never occurred to me at all.

Paying taxes as a US citizen when you’re NOT in the states is a huge pain in the ass. 0/10, do not recommend.

At least where I am, air conditioning seems to be hard to come by. Heaters are understandably more important (However I sleep warm, and thus was dying, and had to sleep with my window wide open all winter.)

There’s jellyfish this far up north! I’ve seen Sea Gooseberries and I was Astounded.

Buildings built in the 1800s (and some 1700s) still being used today is Super Normal Actually, and they even get a fancy lil plaque.

Boat parts just laying around.

GRASS GETS SO LONG????? SO LONG. WHY DIDN’T ANYONE TELL ME GRASS GETS THAT LONG, AND SO FAST.

Spring is??? So slow???? It’s already May and the trees are only now budding, and flowers are only now blooming. In AZ it would already well be considered summer and most of the plants would be on their way to being shriveled husks.

DANDELIONS CLOSE AT NIGHT???? MOST FLOWERS DO???? I’ve only seen Desert Poppies do that.

sunset is around 8:30 right now. It used to go down at 5. The disparity confuses me.

Daylight Savings also confuses me and I Hate It

The most dangerous animals here aren’t venomous and are Also hard to come by. I will keep you all posted on any Moose Sightings.

Canada is REALLY patriotic. There’s jokes about the US leaning hard on the ‘made in America!’ thing, but Canada takes it even further I find. Maple leaves everywhere. ‘Canadian made/grown/raised’ on everything. The fast food joints have a maple leaf stuck gracefully somewhere in their logo so you know this is the CANADIAN version of that thing. A friend explained why to me but it’s still something I’m amused by.

The post office doesn’t close at 5. I am still shocked.

Bus tickets can also be used for Ferries, if your city has one!

Like Coffeemate creamer??? Good fucking luck finding that shit. And if you can, good luck finding a flavor besides Hazelnut or French Vanilla. (The After 8 flavor is good tho, if you can find it.)

Reddiwhip cannot be found anywhere and I miss it SO Much

I miss Target too.

Lots of stuff I miss, actually, that I didn’t realize Canada just Didn’t Have. RIP.

Canadian Shipping my Beloathed. Expensive + takes forever + more expensive if you get charged Duty on your items so That Sucks

Paper straws and resuable bags, yes, HOWEVER, also useless extra plastic in other ways, or taking away things in packaging that would ordinarily prevent using MORE plastic, only to use more of it anyway bc it’s gone. Very questionable.

I think I have more reusable shopping bags than I will ever need in my lifetime now.

I will presumably update my Canada Log™ at a later date, but for now thats all I can think of.

Hello! Hope you are doing fine. If you have time, I would like to ask you a reading. The last few months I have been having low energy. I don’t have energy to do anything, even the things I want to do. I feel so stuck. How can I improve my life and get rid of this feeling ( dead inside)? I: h.a, ; p: she/her; deck: which one you feel suitable

Hello HA! Unfortunately, I'm very familiar with feeling very sad and low energy. Seasonal affective disorder my beloathed (along with the, like, 20 other things I suffer). Anyway, for your reading, I'm using the Seed and Sickle oracle - I'm going to draw one card for a Dawn reading (outward-focused) and one card for a Dusk reading (inward-focused). Hopefully, this will give you an idea of what can be done!

Question: How can HA improve her life and regain energy? Answer: Dawn - Foxglove, Dusk - Elder

Foxglove (a summer card):

St. Nectan came to his violent end at the hands of two cattle thieves who beheaded him when he confronted them. Determined not to die away from his home, he simply picked up his head and walked back to his hut where he finally lay down and died. Foxgloves sprung from where his blood fell along the way.

Others may try to advise you otherwise, but you know the best time and place for the goals that you want to achieve. Rely on yourself for guidance, and meet your deadlines on your own terms.

Elder (an autumn card):

The knots in the elder tree are used by the German waldgeister as doorways through the forest. A new opportunity for you, and only you, is coming into your life soon; but like the elder gateways, it may not be instantly recognizable. Only you will see it for what it is, so keep your eyes, peeled for signs that seem particularly personal to you.

Together, these cards say the same thing: Only you can figure out how to regain energy. You have to be the one to pull yourself up and find reasons to enjoy things. If there are health issues involved, talk to medical professionals and see what's available to you. If it's the fact that you've been stretched thin by various jobs and organizations, step back and hibernate. If it's something else, find a way to work with or around it. Our energy is replenishable but not endless.

Also, fuck Daylight Savings Time.

Leave feedback as another ask that I can publish publicly and tell me what parts felt right, if anything felt off, stuff like that. Until you do, you will be added to my greylist. Please reblog my reading guidelines and consider joining the Coven of Cards Discord server to get information about more in-depth readings by me and other folks!
