Comments on other people's posts:
[cw: apocalypse] [Dreamwidth; Wayback] (OP bysiderea; in response to katuah) At the moment I don't *directly* have any prepping book recs, but I do have a website rec that in turn has book recs.
[mild cw: amnesia] [WordPress (Tumblr)] (OP by![[tumblr.com profile]](https://www.tumblr.com/favicon.ico)

[cw: flashing gif] [Wayback] (by Kate Davis Jones) The history of Space Cadet Pinball. (Surprised to learn that it was a thing for several versions of Windows starting with 95. I thought it was XP-specific: I don't remember ever seeing it in Windows 98.)

Comments on my own posts:

[CTV News; Wayback] (by Krista Simpson) The famed Ezra Avenue party (an illegal street party "thrown"† by University of Waterloo students each year on St. Patrick's Day, known for attracting crowds of up to thirty thousand people) was collectively cancelled for the second year running. Students indicate that this is temporary and they plan to resume partying *after* the plague is over.
†via decentralised common knowledge rather than any explicit organisation, as I understand it
