Just a Canuck who wants to support other hard-working Canucks. I am not paid (in any way, including merch). Just sharing things that I think are worth sharing. That includes some pet pics. And encouragement to see Operation Mincemeat: A New Musical 💼
Happy #NoKings day to all our friends in the US!
Here's a parody of "Bui-Doi" (Miss Saigon) about the protests, sung initially from the perspective of ICE 'veterans'. Sorry about the ropey accents. 😜🎶

A sleeping dilute tortie who looks like she could be reacting to yet another news story about skit going down.
Me. Virtually every time I check in with the world.
She, however, is just enjoying a deep sleep.
Lucky girl.

NEW: A huge ice sculpture of the word “DEMOCRACY” is currently melting away in front of the US Capitol.
Organized by artists and activists, it was commissioned by the Up In Arms campaign, an effort led by Ben Cohen, the cofounder of Ben & Jerry’s ice cream.
Hooper: The only way to know for sure if this is our shark is to cut it open.
*Cuts open shark*
Brody: Ugh. The smell!
*Hooper pulls out a license plate*
Hooper: Wait…what’s this? It looks like a note.
Brody: What’s it say?
Hooper: “Release The Epstein Files”.
This is Ottawa’s LRT. Every day.

Dilute tortie cat in a deep sleep. One paw is covering her forehead, her head is tucked into her back paw, and she has teefies showing. She is precious.
Oh, to be my cat and be blissfully unaware of everything except meal and treat times.

Mars was the Roman god of war.
That’s why we say ‘martial arts,' ‘martial law,' and 'court martial.'
Marshall was the Roman god of designer fashion at discount prices.
That’s why we have Marshall’s.
Imagine if Biden or Obama had sent troops into Republican-led cities or states.
