I spent a goodly chunk of my Louis Riel Day listening to WIND AND TRUTH while I sewed the bulk of a new jacket to take to Paris. It‘s impossible to tell from the picture, but this tweed is shot through with green and goldenrod. I‘m really happy with it.
I‘m also so glad the book came in for me! At 63 hours, it‘ll be a stretch to get it finished before my month off from American writers, but it‘s doable. #audiosewing

Singout A month off from American writers as a political statement? Or because you‘re going to France? 4d
xicanti @Soubhiville I listen at 3x speed, but it‘s still gonna be a pretty lengthy undertaking. 4d
xicanti @Singout it‘s something I do every year because I need breaks from the way that many, if not most, American creators write with the assumption that their audience is entirely American, primed to treat their culture as the default. It‘s really fucking nice to have a month where I‘m not gonna run up against things like temperatures in °F or nicknames for grades. I won‘t deny, though, that I need it more this year than I usually do. 4d
Lindy Louis Riel is a character in the play I attended in Vancouver on Saturday: Women of the Fur Trade by Frances Koncan. Your blazer is looking fine! 4d
