I just found out “Walk of Life” is a Dire Straits song. I spent my whole life thinking that was Springsteen and it still sounds like Springsteen to me when I listen to it. Kinda see how the Mandela affect people feel now.

Is there any documentation of past presidents dreaming about a ballroom?

Canadian Conservatives on Social Media: “Carney’s policies aren’t working. We’re worse off now than we were before and it’s all his fault” Also Canadian Conservatives on Social Media: “Carney doesn’t even have any ideas, all his policies are Poilievre’s policies.”

This is a good read.

We got a bit of rain today…

The truth of it.

If you listen to the clip, he is NOT claiming that. He’s trying to mimic the conversation he thinks is happening among the Iranian officials. He did not say it was offered to him. There are so many other stupid things he does say, lets not put words in his mouth.

Why pick on intersex people? That just seems cruel.

So it cost me $430, (so far) to find out my cat has an overactive thyroid. It may get more expensive yet. She took the pill like a champ this afternoon though.

I think I have a sick ol’ kitty on my hands. She’s been vomiting more frequently lately and this morning when I picked her up (I don’t do that often because she is not appreciative) she seems noticeably lighter. Calling the vet tomorrow.

I guess he doesn’t have an issue with people celebrating a death. Good to know.

Scrolling TikTok is generally my killing time activity. I wish I knew how to manipulate my algorithm. The amount of far right bot accounts I have blocked now is unbelievable. And they just keep coming!

(Thread 1/4) I remember as a teenager, one fun fact people used to throw out was, “Hey, remember in Star Wars where Darth Vader says, “Luke, I am your father!”, that’s not really the line. He just says, “No, I am your father” We would shrug and say, “That’s weird!” Social media changed things >>

Over the past 30 years, tax rates in this country have remained pretty constant, some have actually gone down. It’s not taxes crushing people, it’s corporate greed. Wages have not kept up to inflation. That’s not a tax problem.

This really is food for thought.

NATO is about DEFENCE. Had Iran attacked the US, NATO members would have come to their defence. What is happening in the Middle East was started by the US and Israel. It’s not defensive in nature.

Watching, “Inside the Manosphere” on Netflix. I’m more convinced than ever that social Media will be the end of civilized society. These so called “influencers” are all malignant narcissists who add no real value to society.

Exactly.

You’d think you’d get used to it. But every weekend my son comes home from university, and when it’s time for him to go back it feels like the first time he left all over again. 🥹 A little piece of my heart always goes with him.

Michelle Obama tried to get people to eat healthy and she was vilified. This man makes a complete mockery of the health department.

I was talking with my big brother the other day. He had a great point. He said "Trump isn't just the worst President this country has ever had. He's easily one of the worst people who has ever lived. He doesn't have even a single redeeming quality."

Without naming your job, tell me something you say over and over again at work. “The only stupid mistake is one you don’t learn from. Look it over, figure out what you did wrong and don’t do it again.”

It’s wild to me how many Canadian Conservatives I see on TikTok, who are pissed off at the high gas prices and are blaming the current federal government for not SOCIALIZING our energy program!

A year ago, I was willing to accept that some MAGAs were good people who were merely misguided. But now that Trump has shown us his true colors, anyone who is still MAGA is simply, purely fucking nuts.

My biggest pet peeve these days is finding oodles of people on social media blaming the federal government for the short comings of their provincial government. Learn the duties of the different levels of government people!

I didn’t write this, but it perfectly describes my feelings. So profoundly happy to have my best friend to wake up to everyday and grow old with.

A cartoon from the 1950’s that’s more relevant than ever 💔

Maybe it’s a bad idea to put people in charge of government who are eager for the rapture.

Yeah… no. This is a supreme disappointment.

This guy has totally identified the issues.

Canadians upset with the state of healthcare in this country? Stop electing conservatives to your provincial governments!! They are chronically underfunding and ripping apart our healthcare systems. They are only looking out for their corporate buddies. Same goes for education.

This too…

This one hits hard.

Very strong 80s vibe on this Brittlestar banger.

So the business owner is happy that the American consumer is forced to buy overpriced products… got it. At least he’s getting richer.

Nice to see at least one country thinks their rich old white dudes aren’t above the law.

This. Every damn bit of it.

This is a good watch. I hope Colbert moves to Youtube when his show is over. youtu.be/oiTJ7Pz_59A?...

lol 😂

As a teacher in Canada, this is not something I fear. We have our lock down drills, but no one really thinks it can ever happen to us… Until it does. Devastated for he community of Tumbler Ridge. www.ctvnews.ca/vancouver/ar...

Talking to my husband this morning about Trump’s rant over the Gordie Howe bridge, I told him that it sounded to me like the billionaire owners of the Ambassador Bridge got Trump’s ear. Seems like that may be exactly the case. Ridiculous levels of corruption.

Apparently if we trade with China, they will make us stop playing hockey. Someone go take grandpa’s phone away and put him to bed! 😂 It would be funny if he didn’t have the nuclear codes.

Seeing people all over TikTok that think Carney’s name turning up in 69 files in the Epstein dump is some kind of gotcha. I went and downloaded all 69 files and fed them into chat gpt for a summary. They are financial newsletters. This guy went through them all too. vt.tiktok.com/ZSmJYYymJ/

Bruce Fanjoy has launched a petition to require all federal party leaders to obtain and maintain top security clearance. It's open for a couple of months. www.ourcommons.ca/petitions/en...
