Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
April 5th 2024, happy beloved 78th birthday to the one and only Jane! She’s been my inspiration for around 12 years since I first discovered about her. It’s been a wonderful journey getting to share new pictures I find, my scans, colourisations and accurate information in regards of the pictures I found. May I be able to meet her one day. 🤍
This post will be divided in two, as the picture shown was used for two different newspapers that I scanned therefore the subtle mark on the photos. And you might have seen the photos with my old username so I am sharing them with the new one!
Jane Asher and Gawn Grainger as Juliet Capulet and Romeo in “Romeo and Juliet” presentation while being on tour in the USA, 1967.
First picture is my edition and enhancement from historical picture auction scan, second one is my scan from the newspaper, and third one is the scan of the newspaper.
Jane Asher-More Than a Beatle's Bird
In cities all across the U.S. this spring Beatle fans are swarming to a touring production of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet staged by the Bristol Old Vic Company. When Juliet appears on stage for the first time the reaction is almost always the same. Applause thunders through the theater. Flash bulbs pop—electrifying the scene like summer lightning. At the end of the play young girls scream the name of the actress who plays Juliet: "Jane Asher! Jane Asher!" This is the girl they have come to see. To a Beatle fan Jane Asher's romance is even more exciting than the story of Romeo and Juliet. Jane Asher, in case you haven't heard, is the girl friend of Paul McCartney-the last unmarried Beatle.
An Interview With Jane
To find out what kind of girl dates a Beatle and also has enough talent to
perform in one of England's most respected theatre groups, CURRENT EVENTS Editor Nancy Malone talked to Jane Asher in New York City. The 20-year-old actress seemed puzzled when asked why teen-age girls scream for her. "I don't really know," she said “and I don’t think they’re quite sure themselves. Once they’re with me, they seem a little lost and aren’t sure what to do or say”.
Miss Asher, in contrast to her fans, is not at all confused. She is looking the forward to a successful career in the theatre—on her own merit, not because of her friendship with a Beatle. The actress with the golden-red hair is well on her way to stardom. Her portrayal of Juliet with England’s Bristol Old Vic company has been highly praised. The company is nearing the end of 16-city american tour, which began in Boston last January. After appearances next month in Bloomington, Ind., Detroit, and Cleveland, the company will perform at expo 67 in Montreal. Then the actors and actresses will retur to England.
Does Jane Asher hope to do more Shakespeare? "Oh, yes." she said, “I'd like to do all the Shakespearean heroines-especially Lady Macbeth. But I'd also like to do modern comedy. I wouldn't like ever to stick to just one thing. For example, I don't want to do all movies or all stage. Though if I had to choose, I'd choose stage. I like having a live audience.
Movie Fame Unimportant
"I know you can become more famous by being in movies,", Jane said. "but I've had a taste of that kind of glamor, and I know I don't want it. I want to be a good actress." Jane, who has been acting since she was five years old, comes from a show business family. Her brother, Peter Asher, has toured the U.S. several times. He makes up one-half of the popular singing duo Peter and Gordon.
But Jane hesitates to encourage outer young people to become entertainers. "It's really not the glamorous life people imagine. It's hard work with rehearsals all day and shows every night. And when you come right down to it, acting is really only pretending you're something else on stage." Although Jane made several films during her childhood, she attended regular m schools—not acting schools for m professionals. "I'm glad I got a normal education," she said. "I think it gave me a more balanced view of life. In addition to several Shakespearean roles, Jane has played Alice in Alice in Wonderland, Wendy in Peter Pan, and Eliza Doolittle in Pygmalion. Juliet, however, is the highlight of her career.
Jane and the Bard
She is particularly delighted that she is helping to acquaint American teenagers with Shakespeare. She commented on her own attitude as a 13-year-old: "I suppose I felt as all English schoolchildren do-that Shakespeare was pretty dull stuff with lots of language I didn't understand. I know I wasn't mad about it." Now, at 20, she believes that Shakespeare wrote "the greatest roles in the world." She added: "On this tour, I've gotten a lot of mail and it has meant a great deal to me. Some of the letters from kids say “We came to see you. We were so surprised. We really liked the play.” “That’s great. That’s a real accomplishment to me —as an actress”.

extremely belated montreal worlds impressions, part 1
i've been meaning to write this for weeks now, but never found the time for it. finally putting some thoughts down in words before i forget everything.
this post covers the pairs and women's events. part 2 will be ice dance and men (if i ever get around to writing it...) warning for extremely unfocused writing; i have been so stupidly busy lately.
ETA: here is part 2
-----------------------------------
PAIRS:
pleasantly surprised by how much i enjoyed pairs at worlds! the short program was remarkably clean, and while the free was messy, there were still a few bright moments. the level of pairs did decrease after the last olympics, but i think many teams have been gradually building up their technical content and skills, and it's good to see teams coming from many small feds. i have to admit that i did not watch many pairs events this season (it's the first discipline i cut when i don't have time to watch everything), but pairs live is much more fun than pairs on screen. i can appreciate their elements much better. in general, my favorite thing about watching live skating is the sense of speed and scale.
miura/kihara: i was nervous as hell for them but they pulled through! i really didn't know what to expect after all of their injury struggles this season. it wouldn't have surprised me if they didn't make the podium, so i'm thrilled for their silver medal. this was my second time seeing them live and it was clear that they weren't at the top of their game - there were a bunch of little mistakes scattered throughout their programs. the free went much better than i hoped. i'm glad they went back to an old program, but i really wish they had started the season with better programs to begin with... (hear me out: have you considered lori nichol for choreo?) but i think at their best, m/k are still the class of the field. their speed and skating skills really, really stand out when you see them live. i cannot stress enough how fast they are; no other team comes close to their speed. their lifts are also very steady (when ryuichi isn't injured, anyway). i was happy that the audience cheered loudly for them even though they were clearly rooting for deanna and max to win. it was a tough season for them but they are such strong skaters, and i really hope the next season goes better. i'm also really glad they were able to get a medal ceremony do-over after the men's ceremony. they looked happy there.
stellato-dudek/deschamps: the crowd was HYPED for them, i couldn't believe how many people came to watch pairs for them, considering it always gets scheduled in the middle of the week! i'm happy for their win, though there was a little bit of home cooking to help out lol. they have great programs this season. it's a bit of the opposite situation with m/k where i really liked sd/d's programs, but their actual skating, not as much. their lack of speed is really obvious compared to m/k. many of their elements feel like a fight instead of effortless. but i was really impressed with how they held up under the pressure of a home worlds. deanna's determination is amazing.
hase/volodin: ok, count me impressed by this new team. they still have a ways to go in connecting with each other, but their elements are really solid and their skating skills aren't bad, either. technically speaking, i'd put them behind m/k but above sd/d in quality. i enjoyed their short program a lot; the free was a bit of a snooze, imo. minerva is a wonderful pairs skater. i'm looking forward to seeing them improve. that one lift entry they do is SO cool.
other notes:
really enjoyed both of hocke/kunkel's programs. they're fun, i'm a fan now.
also enjoyed golubeva/giotopoulos-moore quite a bit
still can't believe cats won euros
peng/wang's throws were too big for this rink. i was very sad at their placement, but cheng is such a wonderful skater and their choreo was excellent, i especially love their free.
-----------------------------------
WOMEN:
a very up and down worlds after a very inconsistent season. so, more or less as expected.
kaori: her fs was a MOMENT. i think the first time i saw kaori live was...2017 skate america? it was her first senior season, and i remember being so impressed by the lightness of her jumps then. the same is true this time, but her growth has been astounding. kaori was not one of my favorite skaters when she was younger; she absolutely is now. while her free skate this season is not my favorite of hers, i love how her range of expression has expanded. her skating is lush, luxurious, she's learned to take her time with the music. and god, her speed. she makes everything look so easy. i'm so happy i got to see this confident, mature kaori win her third world title. the crowd was losing their shit for her, as they should. also love how she was the team mom at the medal ceremony with the two younger medalists. she's such a great role model.
isabeau: i feel like every time someone talks about her, they have to add the caveat that they hate her jump technique. which, yes, i do agree with that. but from now on i'm just going to talk about the positive aspects of her skating, because i think she deserves more of that. it was my first time seeing her live and i liked her! she's musical, her arm movements are beautiful, and she's not slow at all, except on jump entries. her spins are great when she hits them. i appreciate her a lot more after seeing her live. her reaction after her fs was really cute.
chaeyeon: unexpected medalist but i'm happy for her! she is not my favorite among the top korean women but i'm impressed with her improvement this season. her sp is one of my favorites. that kind of quirky program suits her really well. the fs is a bit muted, but i think she does a good job with it as well. her musicality is the less obvious kind, but it's there. she's gradually growing into her own style.
loena: her sp was a lot of fun, the audience really got into it. she can sell a program, alright. loads of charisma and she skates BIG. the fs...well, to be fair, even without the jump mistakes, i never liked it. i appreciate what loena brings to the women's field, but i hope her programs are better next season. maybe a change in choreographer would be interesting?
haein: sirens is a masterpiece. i'm so glad she could skate it cleanly like that at least once. she has my favorite step sequences in the women's field by far. we'll just ignore everything else in the fs except for the step sequence. i love her so much and i want her to win another world medal someday.
mone: her skating skills are a dream, her overall quality is chef's kiss. but when she's nervous, you can really feel it. she skated like she was terrified in the sp and it showed. it detracted from the performance. i'm glad her fs went better. i hope her confidence improves and that this worlds was a good learning experience for her. i randomly ran into her on the concourse and she signed my japanese flag! she’s so tiny and adorable.
hana: on the other hand, hana does not skate scared. she just goes out and does her thing! but to me her skating still feels a bit "small" at the moment. her lutz-toe technique is terrifying... she can also work on her dance skills a bit more, her overall polish. but i love her programs. i still can't believe she made koo koo fun work. i love that she never does conventional "pretty" programs.
other notes:
amber: love her, but it is what it is. her 3a was excellent.
katia kurakova's fs reaction was a great moment. i like that she's trying different styles of music now, but i think she went a bit too far in the "serious" direction. her natural spark feels too muted.
young you: my darling. we all wanted so badly for her to do well... her sp was wonderful, though.
olga mikutina is becoming a new fave of mine. her skating is powerful and she's a good performer!
also love niina petrokina's powerful skating

Explanation:
Soon after the wedding-that-wasn't (which, according to EoNM's timeline was to happen in June of 1913), Ilse told Emily:
"Of course I'm going right away—back to work. And in a year's time people will have forgotten—and Perry and I will be married quietly somewhere."
Emily's Quest by L. M. Montgomery
So, it seems as if they were planning to marry next year (probably in autumn). But... according to the timeline from The Woman Who Spanked The King, it would have been 1914... so, WWI should have started.
There is not a single word about it. Montgomery wrote that they got married "one autumn", not "next autumn":
"Perry went to Montreal one autumn and brought Ilse back with him. They were living happily in Charlottetown, where Emily often visited them, astutely evading the matrimonial traps Ilse was always setting for her."
Emily's Quest by L. M. Montgomery
I don't think it is possible that Ilse married Perry in the autumn of 1914 in a universe that war would have happened, since they were said to be "living happily in Charlottetown".
Even if Perry wouldn't have joined (I am pretty sure he would have, though), the war would have touched his and Ilse's life. The same goes for Perry being wounded and returning home before the victory day... I just don't think they would be "living happily" during the times of war...
So, either they got married after the WWI (when they were thirty years old - they would have been engaged for five years), either the war had never happened in Emily's Quest universe.
I would have said, the second option seems more convincing to me, but please, let me know what you think.
Thank you for voting!

🎄🎄🎄Merry Maudmas 🎄🎄🎄
A Christmas Inspiration
The setting is a boarding house, where five young women are gathered in Jean Lawrence's room. Jean is the popular girl, extroverted and friends with everyone, the Philippa Gordon type. She works at one of the city's biggest newspapers. It's never mentioned which city this takes place in, but I'm guessing, from what I know of LMM's life, that it's Halifax.
It's Christmas Eve and the girls are gushing over the presents they've received from their loved ones. They couldn't go home for the holidays: Jean is an orphan, though she has a brother in Montreal who sent her a box of gorgeous roses, two girls live too far away to make the journey and the other two, who are sisters, have a brother who got sick with measles.
As they happily chatter away, Beth Hamilton, who notices things others don't, remarks that Miss Allen didn't get any presents. Miss Allen is another resident of the boarding house, who seemingly has no family or friends and is poor. She's not exactly popular and has previously complained that the girls made too much noise. But the girls suddenly feel great sadness for this lonely woman and Jean has an idea--or an inspiration, as she calls it. She suggests they should prepare a surprise for Miss Allen. The shops are still open so they can go and get her presents. So they do.
When they return, they wrap the presents. Jean writes Miss Allen a nice letter. Nellie, who is an art student, makes her a drawing.
A dudish cat—Miss Allen was fond of the No. 16 cat if she could be said to be fond of anything—was portrayed seated on a rocker arrayed in smoking jacket and cap with a cigar waved airily aloft in one paw while the other held out a placard bearing the legend "Merry Christmas." A second cat in full street costume bowed politely, hat in paw, and waved a banner inscribed with "Happy New Year," while faintly suggested kittens gambolled around the border. The girls laughed until they cried over it and voted it to be the best thing Nellie had yet done in original work.
They put the presents outside Miss Allen's door. You can imagine how she feels when she finds them the next morning. She comes to hug the girls at breakfast and then they all go to church together.
The girls agree that this was the best Christmas ever bc they gave something, not just received--and resolve to bring a little sunshine to Miss Allen's life.
And over all the beautiful city was wafted the grand old message of peace on earth and good will to all the world.
A truly cute, heartwarming Christmas tale. I like reading about characters doing a random act of kindness for someone else, and LMM's stories are not short on these. I really think this would make a good Christmas film. Even though it's a very short story, there's enough to flesh out the characters and give them backstories. Who was Miss Allen--where did she come from and why did she not have anyone? Were the girls disappointed they couldn't go home for Christmas? Etc etc.
Gutenberg shows the year published as 1901. It's in the batch of stories that are LMM's oldest.

indirectly not really tagged by(stolen from) @scp-168 because i'm cracyyyy (want to type and ramble)
3 ships:
damian already went off about abc but i need more abel and hokma. you guys talk about old man yaoi but WHEREEEE is the old man x old man yaoi. your coworker aged you 40 years and then he remanifests in his office as a manifestation of his flaws and his trauma and he's old as balls too. tell me you arent all over his ass. also can we have a old woman yuri carmen.
literally all of the ships i've been going crazy over have literally just been oc ships but also i need everyone to know that even if i don't play it anymore gregor x rodya will forever be the bisexual fail ship of all time. they both get no pussy. they beat each other up daily. gregor is used as a headrest and is also boob height. what's more to love? but also gregor and meursault? there's no chemistry here whatsoever other than they were both done dirty by their society and also have a ridiculous height difference. i feel like gregor talks and says shit and meursault takes it too seriosuly or doesnt get it and they both sit in silence for the next 30 mins. i hate them
none of this matters (holds up my oc polycule that consists of a giant centipede a wriggling neurotic mass of wires a giant bird dinosaur beast and the occasional cockroach that needs some love and forces you to like them) (holds up my queerplatonic autistic distortion sex explosion that commits The Pianist 2 and kills thousands and forces you to like them) (holds up my giant centipede kissing the bug from limbus company and forces you to like them) (holds up my bisexual telephone who hates men but wishes the living cymbal piano man and knight butch would kiss her so bad)
First ever ship: ugh i wish i knew, i'm pretty sure it has had to be an oc ship of some kind, but that probably doesn't count since that's just playing with dolls, so my money is on some stupid hetalia shit (i refuse to actually speak the name of the ship but like. it was one of the most popular mlm ships in the fandom so fuckin. guess). although the first ship i actually started making content and reading fic for instead of just looking at pictures of (i have no idea if hetalia came before this or not) is skarso from tos sob
Last song: im currenlty listening to music lel...im listening to Paranoiac Intervals/Body Dysmorphia by of Montreal one of the songs of all time nglll
Last Movie: Probably a movie i watched at my schools entertainment club, which was..across the spiderverse (it was really good but the ending was kinda disappointing)
Currently reading: I need to start reading again but I keep getting distracted by art and the Evil Devices, but I'm working on continuing Villain VS Villain by Rosalind B. Sterling and recently bought Chainsaw Man Buddy Stories and the first book of part 1 that i'm waiting to get brainrot again to read
Currently watching: i need to finish catching up on major adventure time episodes so i can watch fionna and cake and not be confused. also want to finish steven universe sometime...also need to finish watching madoka w my friends....
Currently consuming: also wateh
Currently craving: watermelon (we only have it when im not craving it like a dehydrated man in the desert)

IWTV: Buenos Aires
It's glossed over so, so quickly but Lestat's selection of Buenos Aires as their next home is absolutely fascinating. Louis' life would have, in fact, been radically different there, even in the 1940s onward--the racial dynamics in South America (and all of Latin America, while we're at it) are simply not the same as they are in North America or Europe.
I mean, we understand the move--they have to bail. That said, it's only the 1940s; they could go to Minneapolis or Sacramento or Providence and still experience essentially a blank slate. All the more so if they went north to, say, Montreal or Gatineau. (Perhaps Lestat hates the Quebecois, but he might enjoy speaking French again day-to-day.) But Buenos Aires is a place where a wealthy, educated man of what's suggested to be mixed race* might live a very comfortable life relative to other cities in the world at that time. It also has enough European sensibility, especially in art and architecture, for Lestat to feel comfortable. (He is an old man, after all.)
Of course, some of these aspects are also what made it attractive to....... other Europeans..... around the same time, but for very different reasons. (I'll just say Deacon from WWDITS might have just as easily found himself there as New Zealand.) But it was also very attractive to groups being persecuted, so let's just say Buenos Aires is a land of contrasts. Many, many immigrants from many parts of the world.
It's worth considering what drove Lestat to select Buenos Aires, but either way, I don't think he arrives at that specific conclusion without taking Louis and Claudia's welfare into account. It's also a place where Louis might have been able to break away from some of the expectations he suffers under in New Orleans. It's an incredibly diverse city with a complex history they all might have flourished in. Who's to say?
*There's a reason Grace's husband, Levi, is cast with a noticeably darker-skinned actor than the rest of the household.

2023 Wrap-Up!
Every NYE I spend some time going over my diary and reflecting on all of the good and bad that happened over the year. Its nice diving in and seeing what the real highlights were, and just having a moment to go over it all
Like every year, I don't want you to compare your life to mine. I encourage your own reflection and I genuinely hope you find your own happy highlights ♥ every happy thing, big or small, is worthy
I definitely didn't top last year as the Best Year Fucking Ever, but I tried!
I tried.. too hard!
I overloaded myself with slightly too many fun things, I think. The fun was definitely FUN, but I booked so many events that it got a bit overwhelming at times. This year was characterized by chaos and uncertainty and just getting wild and wacky with it, and having a shit ton of anxiety nearly the whole time! woo!
there were so many entries this year just completely laced with nervous wreck energy. It's kind of a miracle I was able to wrestle it all.
Okay.
Apparently, according to the ole diary, I started off the year incredibly stressed about work, and oh yeah... yeah, yep, I remember now. I was working on by-far the most stressful film of my life and that's precisely when I became a full-blown stoner LMAO. I won't elaborate more.
Holy fuck I went to the movies a LOT. There were so many bangers this year that I often saw things twice. I went a total of 29 times, unless I missed any other time I'm forgetting. In addition to that, I kept going with watching slasher films on my own, which I still thoroughly enjoy even if they're taking a backseat to Saw right now.
I had a HANDFUL of exciting releases this year! Transformers: Rise of the Beasts, Landscape With Invisible Hand, Monarch: Legacy of Monsters, and Napoleon! Each one was a completely different experience to work on, but each one was special in its own way. Every day I wake up and I am fucking thrilled that this is my job, this is my life.
I went to a Muse concert which was definitely a highlight of the year, it was so fucking awesome, and now they're up there amongst my very few other favorite bands.
One of my best friends in the world, my old college roommate, came up and visited me for a few days in Montreal. We had a lot of fun together and I can't wait for the next time I hang out with her- hopefully much sooner than 6 years :D (but really, it felt like no time passed since I last saw her.)
Then my parents moved out of my childhood home pretty suddenly. It was partially a mid-life crisis, but it was actually a blessing. They were starting to feel really cooped up and everything was changing around them. The beautiful woods that surrounded the home were slowly getting torn down and replaced by construction and power generators. It was really sad to see the place where I grew up slowly become cold and industrial and unrecognizable.
But now? Now they have the lake house of their dreams. It's gorgeous, and its a hit with the whole family. Also, in our old house, we were so secluded from the rest of the town. Now, they are already popular in the new neighborhood and everyone already knows their names and invite them to all of the local lake parties. As caring, outgoing people, I think they really needed this. They finally feel like they're a part of a tight-knit community, which our old town didn't really have.
Also: LAKE!
They grew up on Long Island, and all of my family is on Long Island, so I think a part of us always belonged to the ocean. The water always called me, too. They bought a boat in 2 seconds flat and are really enjoying living on the water again, and I get to live vicariously through them every time I visit home.
But first- Between the new house and the INDUSTRY STRIKES (AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA) upturning just about everything around me, I, just like my parents, needed to take hold of my life and start changing things too. I was feeling mentally cooped-up and kind of exploded.
I really loved my last studio, but after a series of some really extreme layoffs, it was also becoming unrecognizable. I wanted to try something new, so taking a leap of faith in the middle of really unreliable industry times, I decided to say a very tearful goodbye and join a new studio.
It has been a really positive change so far. I really enjoy it there, and I am meeting so many new amazing people that I am having a lot of fun working with, and I think I am performing pretty well there too. The atmosphere is also very nice, and the projects are really cool. I can see myself working there for a very long time! We'll see!
In addition to quitting my job and starting a new one as a wild new change, I also started getting TATTOOS. Just fuckin decided to GO FOR IT- and now look at me, addicted. I already have three, and next week I start my half sleeve! We're only getting STARTED. I want to be a canvas for other people's beautiful art, which is something I've been wanting to do for yearssss.
I made a new cosplay, Michael Myers :) It is also some of the most fun I've had cosplaying in a long time- people LOVE him. Kids, blushing women, grown men, everyone! I can't wait to wear it again next con season.
I tabled at Montreal Comic Con, which was.... an experience. Not a super positive one, but it was fine. It was definitely a memory I made, lmao. (The people I met were the best part! ♥♥)
I still need to make that Etsy page so I can sell my leftovers (yeahhhhh)
Between jobs, I got a whole MONTH off to do whatever I wanted, so I spent it watching movies, going home to visit the new lake house, and getting more tattoos.
Before the new job, I attended Osheaga again. I only went for one day and got ridiculously high and spent most of it hiding in a tent, crawling back to planet Earth. I still had a lot of fun though- I just don't think I'll be getting high at Igloofest in February. I learned my lesson.
I went to a wedding! I love weddings! It was a lovely wedding! And I got to see many of my college friends again for the first time since graduating, which was just so nice and it made me really happy.
Then I went to LA! WOOOOOOOOOOO This was by far the most fun Ive had traveling in my life yet, that whole trip was so much fun. I have to go back one day, there was so much I have still yet to see. I got to see another one of my best friends from college again, the Tar Pits, DisneyLand, museums, and go to Halloween: 45 Years of Terror, which was so much fun!!!!!
Then I got back from the trip and got really into Saw, which has been obvious lmao. WOops! You never know what the ole autism will latch onto!
Having a new fandom to enjoy is always its own bundle of fun. And because of it, I was able to book tickets to Saw: The Musical for when I went home for christmas. As you know because I talked about it literally two days ago, I saw it with my cousins and we all had a bucket full of fun. It was really nice getting to spend time with them alone without the rest of the family and truly just bond as cousins- I dont have siblings, they are the closest thing to it for me. I adore them.
And now... I am home... and I am happily SITTING STILL!!!
I kind of overbooked my year and it left me feeling a little more overwhelmed than I meant to. I am definitely more of a homebody than this round-up suggests.
Next year, I will still continue to push myself to go out and do exciting things, but maybe not so back-to-back!!!!
It also didn't help that this year there were a few really stressful family health moments which are still ongoing and affecting me. It's rough and still happening in the background. Next year might be really difficult, and I will have to more heavily lean on my support systems. I am just thankful I have them
Also, I didnt realize how many times this year I reconnected in-person with my college friends who I havent seen in years. That was so nice!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I hope I get to see even more of my long time friends next year.
This entry is all over the place, lmao
I think thats it!!

maggie! my sister and I are planning a road trip to canada this summer so as a canadian, anything you recommend doing, any absolute must sees?
!!! Oooh, have fun!
I can only really give concrete recommendations for Quebec and southern Ontario, and the later with less than a year of experience - so if you're headed to the prairies or BC I'm not much help.
For Québec:
If you stick to Montreal and the touristy areas, you lively won't need all that much French! Usually people clock that you're a tourist and will switch to English if they can. Less likely the farther you get from Montreal and the Townships.
Goes without saying, try a good poutine (There’s an invisible S in there, we pronounce it more like.. poutsine lmao)! Don't get it from a big chain except maybe Belle Province or Poutineville, the very best I've had have usually been from lil cantines. If they’re not using fresh cheese curds don't trust em.
Also Beaver Tails (a fried pastry brand). Usually have lil kiosks near events and sinfully good. My brother and I go bonkers for them.
In Montreal proper, I'd recommend a walk on Mt.Royal! I forget if the inside skating rink at Atwater is still available this time of year, but might be worth looking into. Vieux Montréal is a nice place to romp around, especially around the canals and the Atwater market. Avoid driving in and around MTL it's a living hell, move around by bus or metro(subway) if you can, you can get day passes easy enough. St.Catherine and Mt.Royal streets usually have fun stores and restaurants to poke around in, and the gay village is great! I'm pretty sure most amusement parks in the USA are bigger than La Ronde, so don't waste your time with it.
Zoo de Granby is one I went to a lot as a child and they do great conservation work and have beautiful exhibits + a fun water park! Bromont is great for winter fun, but wrong time of year, and their water park can be hit or miss.
Both Bromont and Sutton are great for hiking (I have good memories of getting up to a lake on Mt.Sutton just as the mist revealed it, so cool). Apparently so is Owl's Head, but I've only skii'd there. Bromont is expensive and the cops are real sticklers, Sutton is a lot smaller and personally I think more cute and chill.
Lac Brome/Lake Brome is just about the most anglophone place in the province outside of Montreal! You can do a lot of kayaking, boating and even just driving around the lake is nice. It is a tourist town with its businesses catered towards Montrealers weekending there, so everything is closed Mon/Tues but open over weekends. Just a very cute and anglophone town.
Memphremagog / Magog is both an okay town and a really great lake, bigger than Lac Brome if you'd rather get on the water there. Also fun local myths of a lake monster >:3c
If you like murder mysteries, Louise Penny based many locations in her series off of areas in the Townships - such as Brome Lake Books('s old location) and Abbey St.Benoit (which has great cheese). There are maps to help her fans run around and see the locations irl!
Due to the dairy industry there's a lot of great cheese and icecream in general. Coaticook has great icecream and a cool gorge (my ex lived there), but it’s very French so you might have trouble.
A personal highlight: drive up the St.Lawrence. it's gorgeous, sometimes there are whales, and just. Amazingly beautiful. Fuckoff cold water tho.
There are a ton if beautiful national parks in Quebec; Bic is a highlight personally.
For southern Ontario:
Niagara Falls is a mixed bag: the falls themselves are incredible, absolutely awe inspiring (I remember getting to my hotel room after and writing in a frenzy - the MIST from them hits you SEVERAL HUNDRED METERS AWAY). BUT the area around them are a tourist trap, overpriced and iffy.
I haven't run around Toronto much beyond getting lost going to n from the airport, but I've heard decent enough things?
Iirc there might be more Freedom Convoy bullshit going on in Ottawa, so keep an eye on the news if it's on your bucket list.
Also have heard p good things about the national parks, almost went camping with the other grads before schedule conflicts popped up.
Haven't done much due to gradschool unfortunately :c
I also know that Alberta has an incredible dinosaur museum with some amazing specimens, and Dinosaur Provincial Park is teaming with big fossils (almost went on a dig there but Covid happened).
Hope some of this helped!

Non-Pens stuff! Have you heard about this Habs guy who was so salty because the Leafs let an EBUG signed off an amateur tryout play out the final 70 seconds of the game? To quote him, "They'll get what they deserve in a few weeks." Um there's literally nothing wrong in letting someone live out their dream of playing in the NHL even it's for just a little over a minute? 😭
Hi, anon! I hadn't heard that story, so I duckduckgo'd it. Here's the gist of it:
The Montreal Canadiens and the Toronto Maple Leafs played out what was a relatively meaningless game for both teams on Saturday night, with the playoff fates of both teams already decided long before the game took place.
In spite of the fact that it was not an important game, it turned into something of an embarrassing one for the Canadiens, who were blown out by the Maple Leafs by a final score of 7-1. In fact the Maple Leafs were so far ahead during the game that, in the final minute of play they decided to give emergency backup goalie Jett Alexander a chance to get a taste of the National Hockey League.
It was most definitely a feel good moment for the 23-year-old amateur goalie from the University of Toronto, but it would seem the decision to use Alexander did not sit well with everyone.
Following the game, NHL veteran Chris Wideman would publicly call out the Maple Leafs for using Alexander during the game, even going so far as to suggest that Karma would be coming Toronto's way in short order. “They’ll get what they deserve in a few weeks,” said a frustrated Wideman.
***
I can see both sides of this.
Not to say Wideman was right in whining about it. But I can understand his frustration. He was trying to play a hockey game and, even if it didn't mean anything to either team, it doesn't mean the players don't still have some pride. And a 7-1 loss already is hard enough to take before the other team reacts with the equivalent of "I could beat you with one hand tied behind my back." (No offense to EBUG Jett Alexander, but EBUG's aren't likely to win the Vezina anytime soon.) (Though I'm rooting for you, Mike Chiasson.)
At the same time, good for the Leafs for giving Alexander his shot. It was a goodwill gesture on their part and they deserve credit for it. Why not let the guy have his moment? A moment he likely dreamed about growing up, just like Wideman did. The EBUGs, by my understanding, go out of their way to be available whenever the team needs them, but rarely get more than a free ticket to the game out of it. I'm all for Alexander having his moment! (Wideman complaining about it only embarrassed him further.)
(I bet, had it been the Pens in that kind of situation, Sid would have hated the 7-1 loss but also would have made a point after the game of chasing down the game puck and delivering it to Alexander personally, shaking his hand and congratulating him on stopping however many shots on goal the Pens managed during that final 60 seconds.)

Babysitting
Bluetick Coonhounds are gorgeous little bundles of love. Up until they spot a squirrel. Or a cat. Or someone's discarded shoe. Or their owners leave them for a grand total of 18 hours, in the care of a throuple.
Blue's a two year-old sweetheart. You just fall in love instantly, but also notice that our yard becomes her sole object of focus and that any moment spent outside the yard is reacted to with the exuberance and pathos of a Romantic poem's character tearing their shirt open with lovesickness.
And the baying. Jesus Christ, the baying. Coonhounds don't bark, they bay. It's a two-tone call designed to fill up urban loft spaces from top to bottom and that's probably real quaint out in the country where breeds like this actually belong - but the poor thing's a Montreal native. She hasn't had a trail to follow all her life and her hunting instincts are wasted. So, she turns to urban surrogates. Wandering housecats, mice, rats, smaller dogs, foxes. Long before she was dropped off for us to babysit, she even came close to tearing a skunk apart.
I'll never have the nerve to criticize my friends publicly, but it does confirm the idea that "adopt, don't shop" is only half of a greater axiom.
The whole thing should go adopt, don't shop - and adopt responsibly. Whatever you do, don't pick a breed designed from the ground up to fit specific pastoral needs, if you're going to be living in the suburbs or the big city. It's comparable to the Huskies and Samoyeds my friend at the SPCA occasionally mentions. You'll find owners of these dog breeds who entirely know what they're getting into and who try to help the dog to cope with its unenviable environment, and you've also got others who go "It's a dog. How bad can it be?"
And, well, I respect my friend and his GF, but I know for a fact that they adopted a Bluetick with that kind of mindset.
There's the kind of frustration dogs can get that play can evacuate, and then there's what you get when the animal clearly is stuck in a constant malaise. Huskies in milder climates who aren't given tools to manage their heat, greyhounds who can't run - or blueticks who can't hunt.

A French dude in Montreal, an observation post
It's hot then it's cold
Wasps have a different behavior
SQUIRRELS
Roadworks
Drivers don't care about lines on the floor
But they let you pass when you cross the road
Waiting 1 hour, do you can finally access to a waiting room and wait 4 more hours
People are kind, unless they own a restaurant
Waiters are very polite
AH... Tipping
Roadworks
I just learned there a different types of fat people
Desjardins seems to be the mayor of the city
Trucks are HUGE
Sidewalk are high
Roadworks
Boring straight roads and perpendicular streets
Old Montreal looks like an European town. Alternate universe where Paris is acceptable. But it's way too small ._.
You have a mountain and the sea withing a radius of 8km
You have to know English
It's unclear if Westmont or Anjou are part of Montreal or not
"Arrêt"
In Quebec, you don't say "CONNARD *honk*", you roadrage instead
Roadworks
A lot of administration things require you to call on the phone... yikes...
It's even worst when the people on the phone have the strongest Quebecois accent I've ever heard.
Roadworks in Mont-Royal??? Seriously?
At least the roadworks are fast. In two days, it's finished.
No car technical check
Streets smell like sugar lmao, mostly because there's someone in a radius of 5m eating something
People protesting in the street, even if they are 5 (both number of participants and their brain age)
It's legal to be openly racist???
A squirrel just jumped on my bag???
Pigeons, seagulls and squirrels living in harmony
Police sirens (or emergency??) are the most dramatic sound I've ever listened
People are openly LGBT+, that great!
Also companies are openly opportunistic
The metro is 3 or 4 time longer than the one in Paris
Taking the bus is actually slower than you might expect
Roadworks
(At the time I write this, I'm homeless and jobless, so I might continue this post soon!)

where would you move to if not toronto? i feel all my friends have toronto as the ideal living place (bonkers rent aside) but also we are literally all from small town northern ontario lol
I get why people move here! I mean I literally am here. it was fine. it is fine. it has all the amenities you want in a big city, like some semblance of public infrastructure, non white people, queer people, communists, certain health services, arts, food, weird niche scenes and stores and whatever. BUT,
now that I've been here for a decade, the rent that was astronomically expensive to me (coming from montreal 2014, where we had an old but comfy 2br for $750/mo total. $325/mo each) when I first got here now seems laughably cheap. it's miserable, yet competitive, and a lot of people get locked into shitty living situations out of fear of the nightmare of finding a new place to live. people often remark about the chill vibes montreal has (or had, depends who you ask), and ultimately a lot of it came down to: not having to hustle your ass off because you could have a beautiful walk-up in a nice medium-density neighbourhood for <$500, and being able to get good microbrews and wine at your corner store, lmao. QC tuition is also cheap for QC residents, and still cheaper than most places for out-of-province, so it really is/was The Place to be a student.
but back to hating toronto: the sprawl is sickening! you get a reprieve in certain neighbourhoods but it's just concrete on concrete on concrete mostly. I feel claustrophobic and trapped here. it takes over an hour IN A CAR to leave the city, or more like two hours if you get unlucky on the 401. if you don't drive? lmao. the commutes that people treat as 'normal' here are unbelievable and inhumane. if I want to be 'in nature' i have to make a whole trip out of it, like that's my entire day. and even then it involves shielding your eyes from the city and pretending it's not there while you look at the lake, or high park, or whatever. I never appreciated this enough about edmonton as a kid/teen but now when I think too hard about the river valley at home I get nauseatingly homesick. (ofc the sprawl in the prairies is horrific as well; I grew up in the small area of downtown edmonton well-serviced by public transport and by the river).
this is to say nothing of the big chunks of 'toronto proper' that I avoid entirely because they're full of the people toronto really wants to cater to, i.e. bay st business guys and lawyers who are the ones buying up all the new developments as investment properties. everything cool here gets torn down for these assholes and turned into luxury condos and people clap and cheer because it's 'more housing!' and you look over and doug ford is getting handed a big novelty check from the Corrupt Personal Friends of Ford Family and Property Developers Foundation.
ANYWAY. I don't know. I had my sights set on halifax for a long time, I love a smaller city and I LOVE the atlantic. it's marginally more affordable than here. it's very white but not as scary white as like, tbh, small town ontario/alberta, I think largely due to being a city and a big student population. but the more I think about it the more it seems kind of stupid to move myself so far away from all my friends, family, networks, etc... again. my fourth province? god. if I do it, I should do it earlier rather than later I guess? but the logistics are nightmarish.
hamilton is on my mind lately. it's more affordable, smaller, less insane as a move, would be close enough to family for my partner to be more comfortable and it's MUCH easier to 'go outside'. I have friends there so I wouldn't be starting completely over again, I even have clients who come to me from there so my work transition wouldn't be crazy. and I could still commute to toronto with bike + GO train. BUT THEN I WOULD STILL BE IN THIS FUCKING PROVINCE.
idk dude sorry for going on and on but this is literally all I've been thinking about for the last few months and I had a minor crisis about it all last week. godspeed getting out of small town ontario anyway. I guess my thesis is... if you speak french, consider montreal?

My first EP is honestly not what I would recommend to people interested in my music but I kind of feel like making a post explaining the songs because as rough and weird as it is I do hold a fondness for them.
You have to understand that at the time Lady Charles was a way of blowing off steam and it wasn't till I crossed paths with Kevin Barnes at the exact right moment (story for later) that I started taking the project more serious. So this record is just a collection of emotions I felt I had to get out done in a really simple, demo-y way.
First off is Free Speech
This was the era of the alt right and I was getting sick of the obvious double standards. You can get beat up for burning a flag but the same people will defend their right to rag on minorities.
So originally I was going to sing "Canada sucks x3/it's a nation of cucks/USA sucks x3, it's a nation of cucks" etc. Because it was really stupid but might offend people and them I could explain that free speech was the point. But in the end my better senses won out and I made it a sort of manifesto for breaking down societal boundaries.
Musically it's got a cold, computerised sound that I don't think is really that appealing now (I liked the DIY ethos) but the actual music cycles through punk to video gamey to rock to soul which I am proud of.
This is maybe my fave of the album.
As background I had long been friends with this bedroom pop artist who I collabed with and who played in one of my bands. He started dating someone kinda toxic tbh and they went deep down a certain online rabbit hole that basically separated them from everyone they knew.
I really thought this guy had an amazing musical talent but he vanished from all our lives in a flash of untreated mental illness and flailing abuse. Even though I was upset at unfair treatment I received I missed the version of him that seemed long dead and so I wrote about the experience.
As I do sometimes when writing about other musicians, I wrote the song in his style, hence the twisty chords and cobbled together aesthetic. Sadly he never made more music and I don't know what happened since.
This is the moment I really came into my own vocally. I had been seeing a new teacher and she figured out immediately that my hearing issues were affecting my singing and taught me to compensate. It was the first time I was able to sing softly and accurately and it became the blueprint for my singing style.
MGMT's "When You're Small" was definitely an influence here.
Continuing the theme of exorcising demons, this one is a veiled song about misogyny in the music scene.
I had been a dancer (yes) for a band with a guy who really mistreated a female bandmate after kicking me out. I wrote some really savage satirical lyrics about him and hid them in plain sight in this short and silly interlude. This one got a weird amount of regular plays in Russia so spasibo bolshoi to the one Russian person who reps this one.
My least streamed song - I get it tbh!
It's very ugly. Cold computerised rhythm in a lilting 13/8 with my "old" manic, pitchy singing voice and sarcastic stabs of free jazz.
The lyrics are a self-deprecating rant about a shitty house venue I lived in where ableism, probably mercury fumes from the factory downstairs, and late nights combined in the worst way. I wouldn't have put this much cynicism in one EP if I knew that people would actually listen to Lady Charles 😂. I just needed the emotional release.
Honestly though I kind of think this is underrated. If I did it with a full band and better singing it could be a really abrasive but impressive bit of prog-punk. In a way it's the Apocalypse Girls beta release - that one is also chaotic and in an extreme time signature but it's a lot more developed.
And "All the girls in black boots/Talk about/knifeplay" is a very good representation of Montreal in 2017.
Breaking up the misery comes this dark instrumental.
Basically I envision it as some lost movie soundtrack from the 80s, drifting from an old VHS. There are shades of Nino Rota and Ryuichi Sakamoto in the pentatonic melody.
Then it breaks suddenly into 2000's electro jazz inspired by the Polish group Contemporary Noise Quintet.
My sax playing isn't very good technically in particular my intonation, but my instincts from guitar allow me to improvise in a fairly structured way which kind of makes it sound cool IMO. I always liked players who weren't amazing but soloed with a lot of emotion - like David Bowie or Kurt Cobain on guitar. I take a sax solo on my new album so maybe this is becoming a tradition.
The other highlight IMO.
This is a fairly abstract song about addiction and other copes and how they really tie into mental health which really ties into an unhealthy society.
"You can escape your demons/but you can't escape the world that breeds them"
It's musically a mix of Pinkerton era Weezer, 808s and Heartbreaks Kanye West, Across the Multiverse Dent May and 70s Eno with maybe a bit of Heat by DB and Cherry Peel of Montreal.
Like Bedroom Dynasty, I do a thing I like where the acoustic guitar acts as the percussive rhythm and I layer synths and electric guitars over - it feels very personal because it is just the instruments I play with no programming or outside help. I had purchased an arch top guitar from 1957 that had quite a dark tone and it inspired me to play a lot of acoustic around this time. Those old American archtop guitars aren't actually fancy or high end for the time but they sure are beautiful IMO.
Thanks, hope this type of content isn't too boring, it's just really fun coming here from Insta and being able to actually chronicle the stories behind my music and share the songs a bit instead of just making reels into the void.
I did everything on this EP myself by the way which is a blessing and a curse - my upcoming new album is still largely me multitracking myself but I took more care and there's key outside collaboration and I think you'll find the sound a lot more developed and complex.

A) I have no photo of Tazer from skating party than I reblogged ..I don't search it and no more photos seen there is one photo of geeky Tazer for you.
Tumblr media
B) Stroke's daughter looks quite a mischievous ball of energy at least..Montreal Canadians' are keen to sing often their karaoke but it's horror..Also once drunk Kaner and Crosby lol. Not for Christmas parties
C) she wants to know Pens Wags' sector because she wants to track Kathy Leutner as Crosby's partner at Winter Classics. I doubt Ash Mrs Troll will travel down from Canada.
M was removed by Camilla and urged by Zelensky who tried to train with other actor involved with Royal Marine Reserve Zelensky run off from army recruitment and trashes former boxing champion Klitschko Kyiv Mayor doing not enough but he does not lift the finger and a coward to face even a dialogue so trying to be a macho with the balls in the media like UK fatto who is called apparently Boris Johnson. It is not about the war and countries but fat Johnson (his liver. Markle and Patel are M's trolls and after her address and movements across UK for their espionage about M and army) is a chum of Zelensky. Zelensky gets bs about M who said something what he does not like and he dislikes his own people from fattie who posed in the army tank but run to hide into the fridge facing UK journos that he courts often lol. M has found UK article about poor us no house Norwich and Xmas but their Christmas is in January. M is very smart about spotting bs and trap and Z PR run new PR in Czechia where M was just born about other Ukrainian lady. Mother of 4 like Julie Petry here, a supermom and self made biz girl like M who has own house...it is not about Ukraine. It is about his bs taking it from coke fattie and his Cray coke crew how M is in Czechia (no she lives in UK and anybody knows where) and Z's attitude to troll Klitschko and others so her. He has found Kate does not hold power. M does and she does not eat all his manipulations such as UK PM Sunak who started to pose in the soup kitchen what M has on her old FB Marketa Windsors. Very goody goody. M lives in Stanmore close to UK army and NATO HQs. Royals have more houses and it is known that she has a software cloud company in Manchester and she has rented her second apartment in Liverpool. She said it. She posted it but that UK fattie with their former female PM as ministers were often in Liverpool.., Manchester. M runs IT biz, no looting or lobbying UK assets. That's what Johnson and his lover, Patel do and M holds army regrets. They even sold multiple times US UK special forces and operations by ,leaving it at the bus stop, or recently all data to Chinese. Patel., The author of racist card with deluded post signs sold UK biometrics apparently. She is behind the damage of UK police. Z is close ally of fat Johnson with his crazies and he had huge monologues on the day when Fattie left PM office. Z uses often pre recorded videos and put claws into a lady who is Windsor royal born and at her own merit and will not be bullied bcs one fattie with his crew made from her fake ,poor girl, lol. Z has no input in centres but Klitschko is bad.They stalk her bcs her army links and they sell UK to the highest bidders. Plus on coke and not just at Pam's seat in the countryside so denial of facts. There is Grinch Camilla shaming young girls. So M and I don't support self made or working girls. Their bodies,virtues, lives and no way any peep show filming and spreading it..not as a woman about a woman. I think it's good to stand up and bullies try to pick up the most vulnerable (or looking so) victim and it back fired or they have big issues and try to prove themselves as sexier or more masculine action hero's or police girl boss by screaming on staff and chasing old ladies in covid while they partied and not arrested yet. Lets start 2023 without M, her cray family and any trolls and cray fans of Crosby.it is like a real athlete and big mouth noisy person trolling anything behind the screen what's wrong on the game and how to do it but never trying skates etc on lol...the top in their own world, in reality cowards ,inept. UK ex homeland woman's work with UK cops, chasing the softest targets to make stats but burglaries and rape is ignored so looting if not by politicians. Try US abortion clinics and gun totting protesters, not standing peacefully or arresting black UK marine without investigation speeding crap bout him to his commanders
