Well come on all of you big strong men
Uncle Sam needs your help again
He got himself in a terrible jam
Way down yonder in Old I-ran
Put down your books and pick up a gun
We're gonna have a whole lotta fun!

Andi is an RN from Oregon β€” she and her wife are buying a house in #Comox and she'll be commuting to #Nanaimo to work in NRGH!

Andi is the 5th healthcare worker in 72 hours to pass through the Nanaimo Healthcare Infusion (I think we're past 40 American healthcare workers moving here?)

Okay, but there is a theory rolling around that β€œGreeks learned geometry, mathematics, medicine, law, architecture, astronomy, philosophy, and religion from black Egyptians.” So curious to read more about this debate

Opinion: Which regime? What change? Iran’s complexity means there are no magic bullets Iran, almost uniquely, has neither a single unified governing regime nor a single set of motives and aspirations among those seeking its ouster

Most Iranians and most neighbouring countries want an end to the theocratic regime. But Iran, almost uniquely, has neither a single unified governing regime nor a single set of motives and aspirations among those seeking its ouster.

You wake up in the morning
With gray clouds overhead
And you struggle for the will
To rise up out of bed
The world outside is frightening
A sad and dismal place
You pray for inspiration
A moment of pure grace
Maybe there’s something out there
To take away these blues
Perhaps

The Handbasket 100% independent journalism by Marisa Kabas

Now that CNN and WBD are set to become state media in a sale to Paramount/Oracle/TikTok, it is especially important to support independent media.

Per @joshmatlow.bsky.social who quotes the AG report, Ford's new Science Centre will cost 1B more than repairing and maintaining the original Science Centre. This makes NO SENSE and shows no fiscal responsibility by the Ford gov when the province is under assault by Trump.
