NATO defences destroy missile fired from Iran over Mediterranean: Turkiye Defence Ministry says missile destroyed as it approached Turkish airspace after crossing Iraq and Syria.

Have you consider what happens if Turkiye invokes Article 5? www.aljazeera.com/news/2026/3/...

Incredible scenes out of Tehran. March 4, the US began dropping 2000 pound bombs on the densely populated city of 9 million people. I guess we’re not trying to free the Iranians anymore. Also, the administration still says this is not a WAR.

I am adopted so I really don’t know much. I know some things about my bio-parents.

And I really hate these conversations because they leave out people who didn’t β€œcome from somewhere”

Like inherited smarts, wealth, class or caste means anything about who you are now

Orphans are amazing.

Writing a letter to the editor of the Pod Save Bros: "I'm sorry you did a bad job vetting Graham Platner, would you guys like help figuring out how to work yourselves down from this before you guys all end up getting nazi tattoos?"

Good to post the correction…the Kurds got screwed by supposed allies in the US on multiple occasions.
So they’d be completely justified if they held back. Or went all in. Regardless, we all owe them.

Targeting desalination plants is an incredible double edged sword. Iran is extremely vulnerable, but so are the countries of the Gulf Cooperation Council. If pushed to the brink, Iran could easily depopulate much of the region. Iran already struck Israel’s largest desalination plant three days ago.

JFC. It’s by a park. Where families and kids go. And all you need to do to avoid being fined by speed cameras is TO OBEY THE FREAKING LAW. And yet, and yet…let’s hear some more about the war on cars and how it’s those damn bikes that don’t obey the traffic laws eh? Doug Ford will kill people.

Safe Parkside, site of the speed camera that was cut down over & over leading to Doug ford banning them, reports another high speed crash on Saturday via their IG account. Somebody will die here again. Doug Ford’s Ontario.

Trump on service members getting killed in his war: β€œThat’s the way it is.”

Trump when his country called for him to serve: I have bone spurs.

Trump’s sons: We’re too busy making billions off daddy’s presidency in the Middle East to waste time as a sucker and loser.

If applicants use one of the pre-approved designs, not only do they save the design costs, they can get approval in just 10 business days.

10 business days! Unheard of in municipal approvals

I heard that in California in large fires years ago that this plan with preapproved designs passed insurance company approval as well as municipal approval and put folks back in their homes fast, but wealthier people who wanted custom designs waited years longer.

I think it’s a fabulous idea.

I agree and this is exactly the same in Canada…but the stupid funding rules and image of β€œterminal” illness means everyone waits too long…or it means that when people sign up early or live longer…the govt thinks it’s fraud.

Non-profit or for profit, people live longer with better care.

πŸ₯šWho was in maternity homes? Wards of the Children’s Aid Society, Ontario Training School girls, and girls the Salvation Army diverted from a sentence. Disclosure laws hide wardship and sentencing records. Other girls? Parents of means. The truth about maternity homes is not being told correctly.

As Mercer babies & descendants retrieve records, we uncovered a document in the Mercer Reformatory files: the Children of Unmarried Parents Act (CUPA). Its stats were used to track babies born to unwed mothers in maternity homes who were forcibly adopted. Our findings on these stats are coming soon.

Issue is the Medicare definition of terminal is max 6 months. But we have found in Canada that for an unhoused person or lonely senior in a rural area, RN visits improve pain control, blood sugar, med delivery and meals brought to the home, also brings socialization….less depression, anxiety
