honestly one of the greatest joys of speaking another language is surprising people who assume you can’t understand them xD
like i was in cadets yeah? and every summer i’d go stay on a military base for training, and ofc there’re people from all over the country there. so at one point a few guys in the flight as well as our officer are talking & they realize they all speak french so they switch languages right? 
well i was doing something nearby & lowkey eavesdropping—i would’ve joined in but i can’t hold a conversation at a fluent pace so i didn’t bother, but i was having fun trying to understand what they were saying—when the officer, who was usually very strict and proper, says “tabarnak,” which is basically the strongest curse word that exists in québécois (it literally means tabernacle, which is where the eucharist—the body and blood of christ—are stored in a catholic church, but is used kinda like the word fuck in english. all the strongest curse words in québec french are related to catholicism)
so i look at him with this huge exaggerated gasp & say “sir” in the most scandalized tone i can muster, and this poor man oh my god. he WHIPS AROUND to look at me with the most stricken expression on his face like “YOU SPEAK FRENCH?! WHY DIDN’T YOU SAY SOMETHING” and i just shrug and go “you didn’t ask”
it’s been years and i’m still laughing about it 💀💀💀

Oh, I do fancy a Nanaimo Bar, now! Or rather, as it is very hot here, I fancy a generous slice of my Frozen Nanaimo Pie! I'll have to find Joyce Hardcastle's winning recipe when I return from my holiday, though!

examples of charles and max being weird about each other on the radio??
my favourite example is this vegas clip when charles is like "max is already racing!" and then proceeds to start racing, too.
or when (in brazil?) they zoomed in on the red bull pitwall during quali and they highlighted their drivers AND charles (most likely bc max likes to ask for reference re: charles lap times quite often)
or now in canada, when charles asked bryan for "verstappen onboard" even before he set a proper laptime
or in one red bull challenge, max was able to properly identify charles' radio (race and year and finished the quote)
there's probably more! but in general, charles and max usually ask quite often about each other's laps to know where to gain. they overall like to use each other as reference or for improvement

i live on vancouver island in bc, canada
i recently graduated w a bsc in biology and want to go back for a masters in public health once i’ve worked for a bit
this is a new blog, but i’ve been on tumblr on-and-off since the superwholock days haha
what i’ll post about ☾
this is mainly a canucks blog :) i’ve been a fan for my whole life and was practically raised by sedins hockey. my 2024-2025 canucks bingo!
in no particular order my fav canucks are demko, petey, quinn, and brock (i love the whole team tho)
some of my fav players from other teams are leon draisaitl, nico hischier, and matthew tkachuk!
may occasionally talk about other interests/hobbies/sports, especially if there’s team canada stuff happening :) the pwhl team i root for the most is montreal, but i’m hoping they expand to the west in the future!

hiking
bullet journaling
music, especially taylor swift, lorde, and isak danielson
tags ☾
canucks lb for blogging during games! i watch almost every game live aside from the ones that occur at odd hours thus during my work day (and i do get migraines which sometimes flare up when i watch a lot of tv)
*insert team* lb for live-blogging any other games — the canucks are the only team i follow in-depth so i won’t do this for every game, but i like to watch what i can!
hannah talks for general posts where i’m just yapping
hannah reads 📚 for posts about books/reading!
get to know me further ✩
i’m not like super important or anything haha and this isn’t a submission-based blog but still feel free so send me asks and/or messages!! i love talking to people and getting to know mutuals <3
i don’t have a sportsnet radio host level of knowledge about the canucks, but i do have a firm grasp of the team since i’ve followed them for so long!! i also know nhl rules really well by this point (which is made extra clear to me whenever i try to watch football and have no clue wtf is going on 😭), so if u have any questions/comments abt any of that stuff i’m happy to chat/rant!

when we were in france last year people very disdainful toward our accents in normal interactions BUT every time my dad would get up on stage for his shows he would do this bit (in french of course) where he would do his best impression of a radio-canada announcer and go "do you prefer for me to use my international french accent" and then he would switch to a really thick queb accent like thicker than his natural one but not cartoonish (by quebec standards anyway) and go "or do you prefer my québécois accent" and every single time the audience would go nuts for the queb accent. and that made me realize that they truly do think our accents are funny which is crazy to me bc i think our accents sound way more normal than theirs

As a Canadian woman sure I was a lil offended at the Canada lyrics on Kendrick's disses bc wtf did we do to you sir HOWEVER I have lived in the shadows of the misogynistic asshole Drake (and The Weeknd, tbh, but that's another story) for so long. I hated him forever and his lyrics always made me uncomfortable but he was EVERYWHERE. Everyone blasts these guys' songs like they aren't talking ab treating women like objects the whole time. Bc no one cared. Sure male artists from around the world, especially America, do this, but this is a great first step. I don't want Drake associated with us anymore I don't want to hear his songs on our radio stations. I want Kendrick to win by such a margin that Toronto's property value goes down so that Canadians can actually afford to live there. Kendrick literally helped small Toronto businesses by mentioning a restaurant there in one of the tracks and so many people visited 😭😭😭😭 Maybe, deep down, he supports us LMAO and he's a real one for sticking up. Also he's always been my fav male rapper, he's so intelligent and wise

"Imagine" - Kevin Moon
Soooooo I had this funny idea for Kevin from TBZ where he and the reader argue over Canadian/American things! Also the writing's sO CRINGE I'M SORRY I HAVEN'T WRITTEN IN A LONG TIME😭 but if you're into this kind of content then by all means, enjoy!
Warnings: Fluff, reader is American in this(I keep (Y/N) gender neutral 99.99999999% of the time but this was just to get a good laugh bc I'm American), Kevin and (Y/N) are just a silly duo❤️
Tumblr media
Wholesome Kev🥺
Anyways, enjoy!
-Rachel💜
"Hey Kev?" You called out to your boyfriend, who was currently immersed in whatever he was doing on his phone.
"Yeah?" He responded, looking up from his phone and focusing his attention on you.
Smirking, you decided to poke a little fun at him because you were just that much of a menace, and the next words you uttered were,
"Imagine having milk bags."
"Wha–hey!" Kevin exclaimed, greatly offended.
"That was so uncalled for! That's not even from my part of Canada!"
"Too bad, so sad," You teased, your smirk growing into a wider evil grin.
"Oh, is that how it is? Well, imagine having greasy fried food every day,” He retorted, hands on his hips like a child sassing back at their parents.
“Hey! That is not true!” You protested, hands up in the air in disbelief.
“Imagine using the metric system.”
“Imagine using the imperial system, who even understands that?” Kevin grumbled. “Americans.”
“Ugh, rude!” You scowled, arms crossed.
 “And for your information, the imperial system is VERY easy to understand.”
“Uh, how are cups easier to understand than milliliters?” Kevin questioned, an eyebrow raised. 
There was radio silence from you, as you didn’t know how to reply.
“Exactly,” He smirked, a smug tone in his voice.
“Well–well–imagine curling, what kind of weird sport is that?” You spluttered out, desperate for a comeback.
“Imagine football, I can’t believe you guys cheer for people who literally wrestle over a ball and kick it ONCE,” Kevin emphasized the ‘once’.
“Well imagine maple leaf!”
“Imagine stars and stripes!”
“Imagine Canada!”
“Imagine America!”
By now, you and Kevin were nose to nose, with you standing on your toes to reach Kevin’s height. After an awkward pause, both of you burst out laughing because of how ridiculous this little squabble was.
“Wow, that was…unnecessarily intense,” Kevin managed a breathy laugh, backing away from you to give you both room.
“We still love each other, right?”
“Hmm, I don’t know–do I?” You challenged, a humorous tone in your voice. 
“Ouch, you’re questioning your love for me?” Kevin mock-gasped, putting his hand over his heart in a dramatic motion.
“That, (Y/N), hurt, right here.”
“Sorry, not sorry, Kev,” You walked up to him, patting his cheek lightly before placing a gentle kiss on it. His face bloomed bright pink and was contorted into a sulky pout.
“You’re mean.”
“I know.”
Happy(early) Valentine's day!!

I went to look who else is getting this award, and mind you I'm from Quebec and have lived here almost my whole life, and I've never heard of any of these people
Comparatively … they are just not as important as MPP I don’t make the rules
(Personally I have only heard of one person but that’s bc she worked for cbc/radio-canada and I had to study some of her radio shows when I was learning French)

this tuesdaypost was drafted on monday, please clap
we are cookin with Gas this week
listening: listened to antimai a few times through, favorite track i think is 'ring 5: middle class'. dorian electra - man to man: really fun video too charasho (benny friedman): was linked in jew chat. very charming and funky. 5 Old French Dances: No. 5. Le Basque (arr. for 2 recorders and harpsichord): i heard this a billion year ago on the radio (my wakeup radio station on my alarm clock is classical) and i finally got around to saving a link for it. very bouncy very cute. makes me think of rabbits running in circles a la beatrix potter.
EDIT TO ADD: i also finally listened to beyonce 'cowboy carter'!! i know im late! it's good i like it! not a revolutionary opinion! obsessed with her jolene cover! that's all!
reading: big one this week! i FINISHED 'the left hand of darkness'! i really liked it! still marinating on the themes etc. i started 'the dispossessed', also by le guin, and am devouring that as well. there's some stuff in there that oof ough. existential. but i'm liking it so far, i'm around chapter 5 right now. physicists!
fanfic: imposter syndrome (mikkeneko): i might have already linked it but i can't be assed to go back through a few weeks of tuesdaypost to see if i already have. so if i did, here it is again. really charming premise, gut-punch of an ending, cool twist on the doppelganger setup from dungeon meshi with svsss.
the articles, some of which were actually read a while ago but i forgot to link and am now cleaning out my phone tabs: how will the golden age of 'making it worse' end? (david roth) new canada policy lets indigenous people reclaim their names (emma bowman) what happens to the stay-at-home girlfriend after a breakup? (erika w smith) unschooling is the parenting trend that's pissing everyone off (ej dickson) in defense of 'coffee badging' (monica torres): if i had a job that was all zoom calls i would literally go insane over being made to go into an office to take zoom calls. fuck that what my mother's wardrobe taught me about style and grief after she died: thinking a lot about all my dad's shit will semen destroy your shower drain? granny davis' geocaching page: found when i was looking at some reviews for caches near my apartment. im kind of obsessed with her. she also has a facebook page called 'granny's geo page' if you don't have a geocaching account. literally she is everything to me. she has found So Many fucking geocaches good god. wedding trivia questions: used as reference to create some wedding trivia for a bridal shower! similarly, the wikipedia page for morganatic marriages my fight with a sidewalk robot (emily ackerman): my school has these. hate them. my boyfriend just linked this to me and im obsessed, laser etched paperweights, i am not a huge paperweight girlie but wowwww prettyyyyy. the electron orbitals!!!! i had a search open for "anti mega #1 cray street". i have no idea what this is.
special edition: the link dump from my trip to the uk last month! some very related to the trip itself, a few random extras! top of the poops, an architectural firm bc i saw a sign with their logo and thought it was cool but now i can't find their logo, waring ader space invaders because i saw someone's shirt with the little space invader guys and was like ooh the tate museum joel meyerowitz (and another page about him) wikipedia on gratin dauphinois, wikipedia page on doncaster for some reason i did not go there list of artworks at the national portrait gallery of scotland wikipedia page on the jacobite uprising of 1745 washi tape that would match the edinburgh one i bought there, tintin in the land of the soviets postcard that i didnt end up getting wikipedia for a quaich which is a traditional scottish bowl, a wiki page on the geology of arthur's seat, a book in the scottish national galleries that i thought about purchasing but didn't want to try and fit in my luggage (she is definitely one of my new favorite artists though) wikipedia page on lauryn hill for some reason not sure how i got there, wikipedia page on salome halpir this post was on tumblr and i tried to find the item in the victoria and albert museum but it was sadly not on display, one of the audio guides i listened to a bit of in the v & a, a scarf i almost bought in the v & a a google search for the fabric library at harrods because my mom mentioned that it existed but i could not find it search for blinq (apparently spelled that way) blossoms because of a cocktail my brother's friend ordered that had one as a garnish wikipedia page on the mechanical explanations of gravitation
watching: from wool to cloth using a historical weaving technique (jillian eve): oughhh colors
emma in the moment/made in the moment: a deep dive into the chunky boy crochet lore the crochet stardew valley pillow drama untangling the shocking tale of mystical creations yarn i tried red heart's new all in one granny square yarn
some crochet tips videos from play hooky with me
tiffanyferg: 'personal style' discourse hgtv is a gentrification masterclass cleantok villains and the morality of messiness
youtube
playing: a teeny bit of wizard101
making: fallow. well i guess i drew on some cards for my friend's bridal shower. but generally fallow.
eating: made deb smittenkitchen's delicious carrot cake recipe. mine was a little ugly but really really delicious. i bought a bag of preshredded carrots and just sort of roughly chopped em up a little smaller because i couldn't be assed to grate them. i also couldn't be assed to trim the cakes, i did two smaller round pans and stacked them up but because i didn't trim them they were a little wibbly. oh well.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
i'm going to bake another cake for my brother's birthday next weekend and i'm between her chocolate olive oil cake (looks really easy) and bittersweet chocolate and pear cake (a little more involved but highly recommended by bee)
misc: my mom wanted to take a sailing class but didn't want to do it alone so she offered to pay for me to come. sure, said i! i have never sailed! i like learning new skills! reader, it is So Fucking Hot Outside. the wind died and we had to get towed back to shore. the sun was so strong. there are so many ropes with all different names and they all Do Something. sunday's class got cancelled/rescheduled because the weather was That Bad (hot as fuck and no wind) so we're doing it probably friday instead (and saturday. and sunday. it's two weekends in a row of both days at 9am yayyyyy) but i just hope the weather is. better.

uhh hi welcome to my blog :)
• i’m claiming this lil corner of the internet to immortalize the silly little things i do to get through living. not sure about the structure yet, but we’ll figure it out as we go i guess (pls note the title of this “episode”) •
some things about me:
i’m transmasc non-binary & use they/them pronouns 🤍
my queerness is pretty much my entire personality
i’m mentally ill & i’m on drugs
i have a very mean dog who is the light of my life
Tumblr media
————————————————————————
on to the blog part:
since it’s the beginning of august, i thought it’d be fun to talk about the lil things i do when a new month starts.
reading challenges & goals
i’m a big reader, so i always look forward to refreshing my reading challenges & setting new goals each month!
i use storygraph (truly a game changing app for me— i can’t sing its praises enough) to log what i’ve read, my tbr, and my challenges/goals. there’s a really great blogger i found through the app (booksare42) (a hitchhikers guide to the galaxy reference that warms my soul), and they host a monthly tbr tackle challenge that includes 5 prompts usually based on canada’s international holidays.
i also have a couple reading challenges of my own, but only one that i update monthly. i’m a big fan of randomizing things thanks to my neurospicy big sis & all our games of neurotic barbies (more on that another day), so i made a randomized reading challenge. i use random (another great app i swear by) to get:
a letter — i have to read a book beginning with the letter i spin
a genre — self explanatory
a number (5-10) — # books to read
so far i’ve completed all of my monthly challenges, which always gives me a lil dose of dopamine :)
tarot
i’m relatively new to tarot & it never ceases to amaze me. at the beginning of the year, i did a 12 month spread that i reflect on at the beginning of each month. i really appreciate the insight— plus it’s like a lil here’s-what-to-expect treat :)
for the 8th month, i drew the king of wands. the themes of this card are “leader, visionary, intentional” and the guidebook suggested that i write all my ideas & dreams in a journal. i really love this idea bc i have so many plans and projects floating inside my head and in my note app, and having a complete & organized tangible list will be such a relief for my very loud inner monologue.
p.s. i use the queer tarot deck by ash & chess and OMG i love it!! i live by the guide book (all of the card interpretations and spread ideas are queer-centered, and it’s super helpful & accessible to folks new to tarot). not to mention the art is absolutely stunning— each card features a queer model (and the guide book lists their names & pronouns!!) it rly is just a lil deck of queer joy 🌈
————————————————————————
cool things of the week
• this is the segment where i tell you about some cool things i’ve been enjoying this week •
song: casual, chappell roan
chappell has captured the hearts of just about everyone and good for her!! we stan chappell in this house, and i’ve had casual on repeat all week. it’s a staple of a new playlist i’m working on. speaking of playlists—
playlist: soundtrack to my bipolar ii
Tumblr media
i blasted this playlist through my car radio at least once every day during the past week, and i can’t blame me— it’s great ;) it’s full of songs that make me ✨feel✨ but there’s not a singular mood— it’s all over the place, like my bipolar cycle
• my phone is being dumb rn but i’ll update with the link when it gets it shit together •
book: the dark matter of mona starr by laura lee gulledge
here’s my review on storygraph, bc it sums up my thoughts:
Tumblr media
needless to say, i loved it
thing: gift basket from me to me
i’ve recently discovered that one of the best ways to love myself is with my own love language— gifts. i prepared a gift basket for myself the way i would for a friend, and i waited a few days to “give” it to myself so it would be a treat after a long work week :)
Tumblr media
gift basket contents:
cute lil bag of purse essentials, including travel hand sanitizer, lotion, & tissues and a tide pen
coupon for a free donut
set of micron pens
journal that i decorated with stickers
cute lil hardback spiral notepad
paperback notepad (i painted the cover!)
l.e.d. lights for my room (i put them up today & my soul is singing)
pink fuzzy socks ft dogs
handmade card w/ a sweet lil note
catstrology by luna malcolm (dollar tree find that is essentially a book of astrology cat memes and i love it)
rings (i immediately broke one them so that was cool)
choco chip cookies :))
————————————————————————
that’s all folks
