One of the many significant differences between the USA and Canada is that in the 🇺🇸, electoral districts can be reshaped for political aims (gerrymandering), while in Canada, changes to electoral districts ate overseen by an independent body and reflect population distribution changes.

Don’t read it at bedtime! Learn from my mistakes!

Tom Lehrer was an absolutely formative part of my life and my sense of humour.

Why do we keep giving this idiot any time or space?

Imagine never having heard of batteries…

That would be a loooong book! :)

A blooming Dorothy Perkins rose, with petals ranging from pale to mid-pink. Although it is a rambling rose, it is supported in part by a trellis.

My Dorothy Perkins rose and I both survived some cleanup and she’s looking good. #roses #gardens #bloomscrolling #summer

I do love the ping of jam jars sealing. So satisfying! #summersounds #preserves #domesticgoddess

Yeah, I don’t know. We started noticing and reading about the upward creep before the tariffs were really a thing.

Barry Goldwater wasn’t wrong in 1964. He was almost prophetic in his observations.

Just home from vacation on your beautiful island :)
