Trump kicking Ukraine to the curb and (literally) out of the Whitehouse is the latest in a long string of US foreign policy blunders that goes back decades.

Seems to be decision time now for Ukraine, the EU, NATO, UN, and the rest of the world. 🤔

I need popcorn. 🍿

Let's call it what it is... a #BlitzCoup 👀

I think, therefor I am.

YouTube video by The Daily Show Mark Carney - Canada Not Interested in Trump’s Offer & Liberal Leadership Prospects | The Daily Show

If you don’t know much about Mark Carney, the man who could be Liberal leader, then watch this interview. Carney proves himself to be smart, confident, funny, able to roll with the punches, and clear headed about the threat Trump poses to 🇨🇦. www.youtube.com/watch?v=zs8S...

He’s a complete crackpot.

Welcome back! 😀

Let 2025 be the year we find the cure!

Happy New Year To All!

I don't want a subscription to WaPo or any other news publication, either digital or made with dead trees. I would pay a small amount to read an occasional article of interest. We need a viable fee-free micropayment model. Who will take up that challenge?

Silent Night On The River...

Merry Christmas & Happy Hanukkah to all my friends and family wherever you are and whatever you celebrate!

Just got home from radiation and chemo. No side effects so far other than fatigue.

So many Canadian mates celebrating this on SM. I can't stop thinking about him today. Terry Fox - I loved & admired you then, 40 odd years later I find you inspiring me again. This time to be brave like you. You still matter so much so many years on. I hope your loved ones know. #TerryFox #cansky

I have two more sessions tomorrow and Friday. Will wear them then. Didn't know quite what to expect for the first appointment today so I left them home.

UPDATE: Just got home from my first chemo and radiation treatments. Chemo pump on the left and radiation beast on the right. No adverse side effects so far. 👍

Ordered! I'll wear them for my Christmas Eve radiation session!

I need antlers that light up!

Power came back on last evening about 7:30pm. Internet just restored now. Sunday 5:00pm.

THIS is how it’s done, folks.

😎

So, I have radiation sessions scheduled on both Christmas Eve AND New Year's Eve. Happy Holidays! #FuckCancer

Thanks! 🙏

America has been a series of immigrant invasions since 1620. This is just the next wave. In a generation their kids will be saying the same things.

I also have to try to schedule physio treatments for the hip rehab. Not sure I can do the physio during the radiation/chemo sessions, so that may have to wait.

A little overwhelmed with all the appointments and travel coming up.

Radiation and chemo treatments tentatively scheduled to begin on Dec. 18th. I may be glow-in-the-dark for Christmas! LOL

Also, I now have some semi permanent tattoos in three places on my torso that they will use for precise positioning and alignment on subsequent scans.

Recently diagnosed with stage 3 cancer of the esophagus. Had my second scan with contrast today. The nurse drilled in three places to insert the IV in my right arm. She finally gave up and called another nurse who hit oil on her first poke.

A new day begins... ☺️
