Canadians will forgive almost anything, but you will NOT disrespect curling.

Olympic update: Blink has discovered curling. She's a fan! She occasionally tries to help the rock. I'll have to get her a broom

😂🤣 We know it.

I'm old enough to have been there in the 60s when a catchy anti- war chant was heard during protests. "Hey hey, LBJ. How many kids did you kill today?" I keep thinking that it's convenient (and appropriate) that RFK fits the meter just as well. This time the war is on science and health.

We built it

Ok I'm obviously a skeptic. Particularly when they go on to say that it will happen precisely at 10:33 ET (11:33 my time). However, it did occur to me that it would make the (next?) Rapture a whole lot easier. It also makes me think of Terry Pratchett.

🔴 NEW VIDEO: If Trump follows through on his latest threat against Canada, thousands of U.S

For those who don't know my Island home has no ferry access to the Canadian mainland. We have to cross a bridge and drive through Maine. A friend came back from St John yesterday and ICE was at the border when he crossed. That's new. This rock is uniformly beige. White privilege meant no hassle.

Trump: “If Governor Carney thinks he is going to make Canada a ‘Drop Off Port’ for China to send goods and products into the United States, he is sorely mistaken … If Canada makes a deal with China, it will immediately be hit with a 100% Tariff against all Canadian goods and products”

Blink has been looking at the world from her perch: the sea smoke blowing across the water, the birds fighting the howling wind, the ice everywhere. She wants to talk to the Manager. Happy #Caturday

Canada Lives Because…

I know nothing should surprise me at this point But seriously?

I've made a number of seemingly (to family & friends) random choices in my life. Don't regret any of them. But The 2 smartest decisions I ever made: 1. Pack up car and drive 5660.13 km (3507.14 miles) to live on an island I'd never visited before, and 2. Buy ice cleats.

Trying to watch Trump's speech calmly.

Watching Carney's speech. Very calm polite but essentially tells US to get over itself. I'm very proud. #Davos

Happy #Caturday from Duff who jumped higher today than he has in years.

Fergus wants me to say he's posing to wish you Happy #Caturday Truth is he's lying on my legs just to annoy the very jealous dog.

I watched this with my dog ... who flung back his head and howled along. Grin youtu.be/CirrEChyg60?...

Oh sure dogs can now hit buttons to verbalize their needs. But Somebody will make a fortune creating a "pick your meal food flavor from column A and dessert treat selection from B" for cats. I cannot spend the rest of my life guessing wrong only for them to sniff and walk away.

Hey people! My son's science fair project is about how people visualize things when they read. It's very short and he'd appreciate it if you could fill it out, and share for more responses! (info: 'print books' also includes ebooks) Thank you! ☺️ docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

If you haven't seen this, it's worth your time. news.sky.com/share/13482324

Fergus is not impressed with this whole New Year nonsense. He does not expect sunshine and unicorns. He'll just make caves and hide til the world fixes itself.

So i got back from my shower ready to relax with a cup of coffee. We're going to need another chat about who's the Boss around here

Duff says Happy #Caturday

If I read the maps correctly, at the closest point, Canada and Greenland are 18 miles (33 km) apart. I'm not saying there's another agenda here. Just thought the information might be valuable.

So the new Trump Class of battleships will be white marble and sprayed gold? Oh and chandeliers?

I suppose the positive aspect of -25 C windchill is the amount of vapour (or sea smoke) on the water. So yes it's freaking cold, but it's pretty.

It seems that Blink decided during her midnight ramblings to seek out every powerbar in the house. She turned them all off. I only realized this when my TV told me I wasn't connected to the internet. She feels no apologies are necessary. I guess the red "on" lights offended her.

Here’s how I’m going to remember my pal Colleen Jones. Oh did we laugh. A Canadian treasure. An immense loss.

So I'm editing the Edinburgh Edition of Arthur Conan Doyle's The Lost World. Relatedly, if you're in the UK and you or your library possess the deluxe large paper British edition (1912 or 1914 versions), please let me know. It's the version with Iguanodon footprints on the cover.

Me: Print WIN11: no Printer Me: it's right there!!!!! WIN11: Nope Me: WIN11: you have a scanner though Me: WIN11: Me: deletes canon programs, erases printer, does 18 steps, 3 deep knee bends, and howls at moon WIN11: oh look, a printer! Why didn't you say so before?

Terrible photo taken left handed fumbling with phone buttons But This is the first time Blink has sat on my lap. She loves attention but, as yet, too timid to cuddle. Happy #Caturday

Sisters, brace yourselves. Yes we are surrounded by terrible people/problems but This week I learned there is something far worse than manflu! I can only hope you are never subjected to the endless unironic recitation of symptoms experienced by a guy suffering from a UTI. #Ohthehumanity

THINGS ARE PRETTY GOOD HERE 🇨🇦 PeaceLoveCanada.ca

We all need a comfortable nest and a blue teddy bear.

I give up.

TIL The US Federal Govt requires every State implement a Medicaid Estate Recovery Program. When an individual in the US who has been receiving Medicaid passes, those benefits are expected to be repaid by their estate. Gobsmacked

Very disappointed in the quality of scams/spam I've been getting lately. Haven't been informed I'm owed millions of dollars in months. I deserve far more than a scooter from Walmart. They need to up their game!

Happy #Caturday Fergus would say, if he wasn't focused on ensuring his kingdom is free of enemy incursions.

I asked Duff and Fish to tidy up. Came back to this. Sigh

THE VIDEO IS OUT! Enjoy! 😁 youtu.be/9k7OUowPPMQ

I know we don't expect much from this source but putting it on their Science page yesterday is weird.

Your family’s story isn’t melted down here. It’s stitched in. Here’s why to consider Canada, if you’re looking to leave the U.S.
