Stéphanie, why did you choose Ottawa and not Montréal when you moved from Vancouver?
Because I have an Anglo husband and I won't tolerate hateful politics against him.

Tip for #android users:
If you search for simple utility apps on #google's play store it will almost always give you a bunch of options that contain ads or ask for unnecessary permissions.
F-Droid is an alternative app store for android devices which exclusively lists apps published under the AGPL (a #copyleft / free-software / open-source license). It's possible to install F-Droid on a normal Android OS via its APK, but that can be intimidating.
Most of the apps on F-Droid are *also* available on the play store. So, even if you aren't ready to fully switch out of Google's ecosystem, you can still use F-Droid's search as a better way to find options that are (in my experience) free of ads and surveillance.
Each app features a page which links to their source code, which usually has a README file, which usually points to their page on the play store.

“Poor Unfortunate Souls” from The Little Mermaid, both the Pat Carrol (animated 1989) and Melissa McCarthy (live-action 2023) performances, are such bops.
I haven’t even watched the 2023 movie; I just watched FilmJoy’s pet goldfish react to the movie last night, which prompted me to look up the 2023 version of the song and I loved it.
Ursula’s multi-layered manipulation in the song always kind of terrified me as a nine-year-old (I listened to it so many times growing up) because I doubted that I wouldn’t fall for such a ruse if it was less transparent:
- deception without outright lies.
- rushing the decision with “I’m a busy woman and I haven’t got all day”.
- preying on a teenager’s first experience with both lovesickness and an abusive father.
- simplifying a complex life-changing decision to the deceptively easy action of agreeing to a contract.
- physically pulling her closer to egg her on to sign the contract, making it even easier for Ariel to do it in a split decision.
- hiding her true motivations of wanting Ariel to fail to uphold her end of the contract, to enslave her as a bargaining chip for the throne.
The rest of the movie was pretty mid with questionable messages (“Kiss the Girl” was so problematic), but “Poor Unfortunate Souls” was not among its long list of problems.

I real LOVE the fact Mastodon and most of the Fediverse software avoids this all together
🤔 People keep saying that Mastodon doesn't have this problem "because no algorithms," but Mastodon absolutely does have this problem.
For example, whether or not a fediverse user sees this post that I'm writing right now, depends on whether or not their admin thinks that they should see posts from hachyderm, or from me in particular. 🤷🏿♂️
Someone is still deciding which replies you see and which ones you don't see, presumably for your safety and enjoyment.
