I need to follow Lewis but I've seen nothing but positive feedback from others I follow.

I've been WAITING for her to throw her hat in the ring. I am legitimately excited for Canadian politics again. She is exactly what Canada, and the world needs as a leader.

The Canadian Justice system loses $20 billion year.

The Canadian military loses $34 billion a year.

Canadian Health Care loses $372 billion a year.

Imagine if Carneys liberals talked about services like it does the Post Office.

I am begging Canadians to understand that Canada Post, like public transit, should not be a business - it's a service.

Canada Post is a lifeline for rural, remote and Northern communities and overall, we need to re-evaluate why people think they "need" random shit delivered ASAP.

I need to say a few words about Darren.
He was, in many ways, the doctor all doctors needed to be. Compassionate, caring, an advocate and a poet. We were all privliged to have him in our world.
And we are poorer for his departure from it.
Wherever you are, I hope there are paddles and pedals.

Oh no! His posts always gave me such balance and hope. My heart breaks for his family and friends. What an awful loss. ❤️😢

This was put out by the league itself less than a month ago.

What about it screams "SHORTEN THE FIELD AND CHANGE THE ROUGE!"?

Goodnight friends

Agreed. It hasn't taken long for his supporters to wake up and realize they've been hoodwinked either.

Not a fan of much of these changes. Seeing a lot of similar sentiment here.

Exactly what I was thinking.

Showing us exactly who he's been all along. I've never trusted him.

That is so unfortunate. Keep shining like you always do. Your authenticity and humanity will continue to attract the right people who will stay and also respect you and the work you do.

Let us know how we can help. We are community and we are here for you. 💕

You do such good and we all can learn so much from you. ☺️

I hope I remain in your circle, but I understand if I do not. I appreciate you, your wisdom and the love you continue to show all of the relatives here in this city. ❤️

Yearly unpopular reminder that you should never post photos of your kids online, but if you're going to, you should ask them for consent.

When we role model that ALL photos require consent before sharing, we actively dismantle a culture that has normalized leaking nudes.

officialjackwhite "Jack White is a washed up, has-been loser posting drivel on social media because he clearly has ample time on his hands due to his stalled career," wrote Cheung. "It's apparent he's been masquerading as a real artist, because he fails to appreciate, and quite frankly disrespects, the splendor and significance of the Oval Office inside of The People's House."--White House Communications Director Steven Cheung Listen, I'm an artist and not a politician so I'm in no need to give my answer or opinion on anything if I'm not inspired or compelled, but how funny that it wasn't me calling out trump's blatant fascist manipulation of government, his gestapo ICE tactics, his racist remarks about Latinos, Native Americans, etc. his ridiculous "wall" construction, his attacks on the disabled his attempted coup and mob insurrection and destruction of the sacred halls of congress, his disparaging sexist and pedophilic remarks about women, his obvious attempts at distraction about being a close personal friend of Jeffrey Epstein and his inclusion in the Epstein files, his ignorance of the dying children in Sudan, Gaza, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo, his lack of empathy for military veterans and those struggling with poverty, his attempts to dismantle healthcare, his obvious wimpy and pathetic kowtowing to the dictators Putin and Kim Jong Un, his nazi like rallies, his attempts to sell merchandise and products like Goya beans through the office of the President, his fake "gunshot to the ear" that he showed no medical records or photographs of his constant, constant lying to the American people, etc. etc. No, it wasn't me calling out any of that, it was the fucking DECOR OF THE OVAL OFFICE remarks I made that got them to respond with insults. How petty and pathetic and thin skinned could this administration get? Masquerading as a real artist? Thank you for giving me my tombstone engraving! Well here's my opinion, trump is masquerading as a human being.

officialjackwhite He's masquerading as a christian, as a leader, as a person with actual empathy. He's been masquerading as a businessman for decades as nothing he's involved in has prospered except by using other people's money to find loophole after loophole and grift after grift. His staff of professional liar toadies like Steven Cheung and Karoline Leavitt have been covering up and masking his fascism as patriotism and "ample time on at golf than helping ANYONE in the country. Improve. Anything. There progress with him, only smoke and mirrors and tax breaks for the ultra wealthy. So maga folk, enjoy your concrete paving over of the rose garden, your 200 million dollar ballroom in the White House, and your gaudy ass gold spray painted trinkets from Home Depot, cause he ain't spending any money agenda. on helping YOU unless you fit into his white supremascist country club rich idiot. No intelligent person can defend this low life fascist. This bankrupter of casinos. This failed seller of trump steaks, trump vodka, trump water, etc. This man and his goon squad have failed upwards for decades and have fleeced the American people over and over. This professional golf cheat, this grifter who has hundreds of thousands of deaths from his inaction of the pandemic on his hands, this man that the majority of the country somehow were fooled into supporting and voting into office (through the flawed electoral college) and their love of reality television stars. Being insulted by the actual White House that this particular conman leads is a badge of honor to me, because anyone who trump supports and likes is a villain who gives nothing to their fellow man, only takes what can benefit themselves. And no I'm not a Democrat either, I'm a human being raised in Detroit, I'm an artist who's owned his own businesses like his own upholstery shop and recording label since he was 21 years old who has enough street sense to know when a 3 card monte dealer is a cheap grifter and a thief.

Trump doesn't seem to see that some people are still immune to his threats.

Jack White criticized Trump's Oval Office decor. The White House then called White a "washed-up, has-been loser... masquerading as a real artist." And White, undeterred, posted an absolutely blistering takedown in response.

Protests as newborn removed from Greenlandic mother after ‘parenting competence’ tests Danish authorities take one-hour-old infant despite law banning the tests on people with Greenlandic backgrounds

🥚 "A Greenlandic mother’s one-hour-old baby was removed from her by Danish authorities after she underwent [racist] 'parenting competence' tests." The Inuit mother, an #adoptee, had been abused by her adoptive father, and this was cited as a reason for removal.

A rushing mountain stream is pictured. The water is jewel coloured and filled with rapids. The background shows a turquoise traffic bridge highlighted in the sun while cloud shrouded mountains frame the picture.

Physically I may be back at home but mentally I'm still back in the mountains. Sigh.
