#Activists & #advocates gathered in downtown #Halifax Tuesday afternoon to call for an overhaul of the #JusticeSystem to improve its treatment of #IndigenousPeople & to #honour the #memories of #Indigenous people who #died in provincial custody.
The crowd marched from the Peace & Friendship Park to the #HalifaxCentralLibrary holding signs that read "Real Justice Doesn't Kill People" & "Say Their Names."

“Where Were You In ’72?” This question was the catalyst for a #museum #exhibition I organized a few years ago. As well as inviting all the locals to share their #memories, I also asked some of my rock star friends to get involved. Here’s where Steve Harley from Cockney Rebel & singer/songwriter Alejandro Escovedo were in ’72…
So, where were you?

Today my middle turns 31 years old. It boggles my mind. The panels, clockwise from upper left:
1. Greeting baby sister upon her arrival (1994).
2. Strapped into her car safety seat and ready for adventure.
3. Naptime, clutching her lovey "baby," a doll made from parachute fabric. Thumb corked in mouth.
4. Post-cake decimation, examining her loot from her first birthday (seated in high chair).

My wife, Julie, and I were married at Ross Camp Chapel all the way back in 1996. Even though it's only about 30 minutes away, I have only revisited the chapel a couple of times over the years. I recently decided to take our son out to see it and take a couple of photos.
30 years is just around the corner! 🙂

The weather #Today is one of those that makes me want to be that kid, again; the one I was so many years ago, riding around my neighborhood in Orange County just totally unaware of how much it would all change in my lifetime. On the days when no bullies were out, and the weight of the world had not yet been placed upon my back. #Nostalgia can be a good thing, if you can find those cul-de-sacs of faultless times where everything was fine for that moment.

Hi #mastodon folks, what aspect of your life when you were young that you took for granted, but now your kids would have no idea about? I’ll go first: card catalogs #childhood #memories
Used to watch Tomorrow's World when young (was it before or after Top of the Pops?). Inventions seemed to be presented as potentially for the benefit of all. Or that's my memory of it anyway.
If it was still on it'd probably just be a schill for tech product press releases and news of the latest ego extension project of various man-baby oligarchs. #change #TV #BBC #Memories #technology #maudlin

I received a postcard from the #postcardswap! It had a lovely story about the sender being invited to a Hungarian household at Easter and having an afternoon involving large quantities of pork products and lots of traditional Hungarian fruit brandy known as pálinka. So Hungarian! It was such a lovely memory and I really appreciated reading it. And a terrific postcard as well. If I had seen this in a shop, I would have bought it for my postcard swap!

Could you delete all your old pictures/videos (memories) because you don't look at them anyway?
Let me know your option on this!
I am trying to figure out if memories in this form are even necessary or if it's enough to print a few of them or get rid of them completely?
Having a storage or even cloud for them, is wasting resources, if no one is looking at them (except of big companies).

One of my Sony Discmans from the 2000s is still working perfectly. Count me among those who still hold a preference for physical media over digital. There's just something about holding a tangible copy of a beloved album that can't be replicated digitally.
#Music #PopPunk #BoysLikeGirls #CD #Sony #Discman #Nostalgia #Memories
This album is a pop-punk masterpiece that takes you on a rollercoaster ride of emotions with infectious energy, relatable lyrics, and catchy hooks. A timeless classic that will make you feel like a carefree teenager again!
Indulging in a little nostalgia, I'm taking a moment to transport myself back to the year 2006 when I was 15, carefree and happy. Boys Like Girls’ eponymous debut album was the very album that first introduced me to modern pop-punk (mostly listened to classic rock and metal).

@jeremy_ai #BikeNite We won't dig out our childhood bike photos (or we'd never get back to our still-need-to-do today tasks)! :) We can share a snippet of some childhood memories of our first bikes: "I remember my first tricycle, and my first two-wheeler, a used bike. After Dad fixed it up, Mom painted it a shiny dark blue—a stand-out color, as in clearly not a new bicycle.
What stands out more in my mind was Dad also fixing up another bike at that time for Mike, a fourteen-year-old boy who walked many miles into town to deliver the Grit newspaper. Dad had delivered papers himself as a young boy and probably remembered that a newspaper bag got heavy. Mike was pretty darned happy when Dad surprised him with the bicycle. But that’s another story!
Later, the summer I was twelve, I was thrilled when Dad brought home for me a brand new Schwinn." https://bikemonterey.org/biking-west-cliff.html

Midnight traffic: a #Poem
I am fifteen walking in the early AM
The duck pond is miles from home
One day it will dry up and grass will grow
Headlights slow and hunting draw near
Window rolls down
"Do you need a lift?"
No
"I'm not trying to scare you."
I'm not scared
"I just want to help you
Get where you going"
I'm exactly where I need to be
Alone again... with the midnight traffic
All those miles and years
For poems no one cares for.
Good morning. 🕊🕊🕊
I'm staring at a blank page this morning. I don't know what to write about. I could talk about my dogs, they're always good for entertainment. Or I could write about birds, but I try and do three postings of birds every day. Sometimes, I substitute the moon or a mammal. Sometimes, it's just hard to get started. I try to use every one of the 1000 characters in my morning toot, that includes the quote of course.
Are you old enough to remember Mr. Ed? As a child, I loved that show. I still recall Mr. Ed saying "Wiiilllburrr," Mr. Ed was Wilbur's horse. Mr. Ed was much to smart for his stable. Then there is the jingle that still sticks in my mind from time to time: "A horse is a horse, of course, of course ..." by Jay Livingston. Some memories are worth writing down.

A trip down memory lane for my photo today. This was my first ever car and I remember it with great affection. I went all sorts of places in it, including trips to France, Italy and Scotland. I also learnt almost everything I know about mending cars from it. I even painted it myself (with a brush) in a fetching shade of maroon.
I bought it in 1972 and managed to keep it going for about 7 years, but eventually it went for scrap...

I had another rummage through my memorabilia box and just found the "flyer" for the party:
We got a rubber stamp made and used that on old discarded linen bedsheets.
I think we even gave away a little ziploc bag full of gummy bears with them when we handed them out.

🥖 Things I miss most about #SanFrancisco: #Sourdough
It's trendy to start your own mother dough and bake sourdough at home, but I'm just not into that.
One can buy a baked-that-day sourdough "long" or "round" or a "batard" in most SF markets. Several bakeries have retail stores on premises. Boudin @ the Wharf is chef's-kiss, but my favorite (a batard) is made by #AcmeBreadCompany.

I remember the hype, I was kind of one of those kids. I was on the Internet before most of the kids in my little town in Finland back in 1995.
"Shouldn't everybody be on the internet?"
I'd answer to that pretty differently nowadays. Back then people knew how to behave, because the Internet wasn't the norm. #Internet #90s #Memories #Retro #Nostalgic

I'm sitting here at Anthology Coffee, chatting about how this place is a constant in my life, and I told Nicole (my partner): "I used to come here with Kyle". (Kyle is my son that was murdered in 2019 at age 20).
Then I remembered a photo I took. The last time I was here with him. And I looked at the photo and pulled it up on my phone and it was as if he was sitting right here with us. This place, physically unchanged and yet feeling like an alternate universe. As if I was sitting between two realities: the one where I'm sitting in this place with my son, chatting about life and love, and another dark reality in which he has been ripped out of our lives.
He's here. He's not here. The two lives I live.

In a tent, on a still pretty cold mid-March day, shortly before my birthday. And a few hours after puking blood into a bin on the street. And probably looking so straight out of Hell myself I scared the living crap out of a newspaper lady.
As much of a mess as I was before the show, I left with my facial muscles in pain from so much laughter.

20. Complete. Today I walked down to Morans Falls. Dad and I did this walk 12 months before he passed away. He requested a teaspoon of his ashes go over them, with the rest joining Mum at Burleigh Heads. So the last time I did this walk was almost 14 years ago. It is a beautiful place to rest. He loved it so. We loved him so 💜 #memories #23thingsin2023

This was the Turkish village of Nar, just 300 km from the epicentre. I’m wondering if their families are okay today.
