The Voyageurs Wolf Project of Northern Minnesota tags & documents grey wolf ecology & behavior: www.voyageurswolfproject.org

The video you see here is confirmatory proof:
Wolves. Love. Blueberries.

This reminds me of that Frankie Boyle joke about how Americans not only come to your country and kill your people, they also come back twenty years later to make a movie about how killing your people made their soldiers sad.

one good thing about being antiwar is you will never be wrong. one bad thing about being antiwar is no one who matters will ever listen to you

Co-signed.

Every one of those people who has died in the country we attacked was a person. Each had exactly as much of a future as you or I. There is an incalculable amount of beauty and love which will now never be felt or seen or spoken. A whole world has died with each of them.

She's also had "Feel Like I'm Fixing to Die Rag" in her head all day.

So, you know, call the old anti-war activists in your life. They're probably not doing so hot right now.

I'm having a great time rereading the first Keeper Chronicles book.

It's set in Kingston, and I think this is the first time I've reread it since I moved to Canada in general and eastern Ontario in specific.

Woke up. Looked at my phone. Stepped in cat puke on my way to the bathroom. Remonstrated with God a bit. Went back to bed.

Now I'm up again and I think I'm going to eat some soothing ramen and reread some soothing @tanyahuff.bsky.social and avoid the internet for a few hours.

Yes, same! Leaving the x-ray office today I was putting on my shoes very slowly just to make sure the admin saw me leaving

Oh yes, every time one of my Canadian partners has had to get medical care in the US they've been so weirded out/appalled by it.

I've lived in Canada over 16 years and it still sometimes feels weird to leave a medical office without paying.
