BeReal is all about "today" and doesn't even let you see the past.

Old Twitter was all about the newest-at-the-top feed

X still is about what's trending and showing you recent things it thinks you'll like.

Sure, FB and Instagram show you "memories" of today in the past, but the core is still recent content (and 24 hour content on stories).

Even blogs are all about what's the most recent.

Are there any social platforms that are about evergreen content?

@sabbatical All but one of the lakes within an hour drive from the outskirts of Edmonton are fairly shallow and end up getting "don't swim" advisories by August each year.

The other is much deeper, has a cryptid (said to make strange noises when the lake is frozen over in winter), and we're about to head there to camp for the weekend.

Further north-north-east is "lake country" and there are a lot more lakes so you have a better chance but the same problem does occur. Nothing is safe unless you head to the rockies or 3+ hours north.

I did just learn of a secret sandbank on a small river that I'll have to take the family to sometime

Gotta love living somewhere that has health warnings for both really hot days and really cold days. (Not joking; our weather is great 50 weeks out of the year)

Once I got a job that had a line similar to this in the job listing even though it didn't describe me. I don't recommend it.

"If you don't like to work as a team, don't want to give 100% every day, or are looking for a job where you check in and check out so you get a paycheque, this job isn't for you."

I wanted a “real” biking shirt and my wife picked this up at the thrift store.

How wrong is it to wear a shirt from a charity ride that you didn’t participate in?

Have you been to an NHL game? NFL/CFL?

@sabbatical Considering it's a >30º week here and there's very little good natural waterplay options nearby, you're making me very jealous

The single weirdest niche in fashion design is clothing items that require the wearer to get buck naked in order to defecate being marketed as daily-wear clothing

@freeschool I set my default to DuckDuckGo because I like their "bangs" but SearX comes up with good results quite often

A question for those of you in a relationship with a significant other where it is not an unreasonable idea for one of you to lift the other: is it abnormal for one of you to carry the other, by way of a "jump hug" or just random lifting, or whatever?

Gotta love hearing a song you recognise from a relatively unknown band while out in public. BRB rocking out in the hotel lobby
