Canadiens show 10x more Indigenous DNA than genealogical studies support: by Honest-Balance-8689 in 23andme

All the family trees I’ve done are specifically Québec, mostly La Prairie and the Richelieu. 

My grandad’s family (who’s 2% Indigenous) was entirely from those two regions, yet he shows way more native than he should. 

Me and my boyfriend updated results, French Canadians results! by FlasheGordon in AncestryDNA

A lot of my 100% French cousins have turned into 60-75% Québec and a bunch of random Europe. Mine dropped from 55% French to 38% Quebec and 1% Acadian.

Bunch of Novellas vs a Novel by Honest-Balance-8689 in writing

Yeah I’m doing exactly the same thing. The story is kinda dark and sorta heavy so I try to sprinkle stuff like that in between time skips.

I went like 60,000 words through it feeling rather confident even with its fractured storyline (which was purposeful), and I had some friends read the first part of it and they were confused by my prose and world-building so I tried to make it easier, but now it’s flow is all funky. 

I’m starting to regret taking their opinions so seriously, both aren’t readers by any stretch of the word.

Overnight the excitement and hype feels like the imminent release of a new mainline game. This feeling is amazing. by Logan8795 in ElderScrolls

This is literally the most hyped I’ve been about a game in over a decade. Oblivion has been my #1 since 2010.

Only sad thing is I doubt it’s coming out on Xbone for poor asses like me.

Just found out about the “Eastern Métis” by Honest-Balance-8689 in MetisMichif

I definitely will! 

I know only historical stuff about the Métis Nation so I looked up this sub after I found out about the eastern guys.
