PM Carney is the best PM we’ve had in generations. Calm, considered, intelligent and capable.

He also said he doesn’t need the UK armed forces because the war is won.

It’s almost like the US is being run by a syphilitic moron with the attention span of a gnat.

So much for gas being under $2 a gallon.

I’ve only the US had a viable solar and wind infrastructure.

Is there any other way to be with cats?

No one in the history of mankind has ever said “I’m going to take my cat to the park and let it case sticks.”

It’s always chill with books. The way I like it.

It’s been sunny here today (#Vancouver) but we’re bracing for three major deluges over the next few days.

There was a time when the world couldn’t cope with people driving ICE cars because the infrastructure wasn’t there. We’ll adapt and no one will care about the Middle East and the strait of Hormuz.

My conversation with my cat usually goes along the lines of:
Me: hello kitten
Bella (12 yo): I’m not a kitten, I’m a big grown up cat!
Me: you’ll always be a kitten to me.

This conversation is oral with both parts played by me.

Sometimes I think I need help.

I don’t want a single cent of my money being spent in support of this war of choice. Not one.

So they’ve destroyed 100% of their military capability but still need other countries to participate in keeping the Strait open.

Perhaps Trump needs to destroy 1,500% or even more, in the same way he lowered drug prices by that much.

The man is a moron, but unfortunately he has nuclear weapons.

He just wants other countries to put their ships in jeopardy so
A) it’s their assets being blown up
B) they’ll get dragged into the war. Which is apparently already over. But the US needs ships. And soon enough NATO boots on the ground.

Btw - release the #EpsteinFiles as required by law.

He’s Grima but Donald has no redeeming qualities. King Theoden he most certainly is not.

I’m a sci-fi geek and read all her Shikasta series (repeatedly, as they’re dense and nuanced I I got more from them on each reading) which led me to her contemporary fiction. At first she seemed quite left for this rich white kid, but she changed much of my perspective in life, for the better.

So… Iran is decimated but still capable of causing chaos in the Strait. Got it.

They were the Pineapple Express when I was a kid. Sounds much better than the prosaic Atmospheric River.

Looking at this weather it’s hard to believe we’re about to get hit by an armada of rainstorms.

They’ll wait. They’ll wait until the US thinks it’s over, become complacent, and lets their guard down. These are old societies who play the long game.

You’re a good neighbour! It brought to mind a novel by Doris Lessing of the same name I read decades ago, which I think I’ll read again. I need some positive literature.

Question for you John: if you were a small business owner and had to pay him out of your company revenue, would you hire him?

Canada is so much more than syrup and chips. We have a much different philosophy when it comes to our neighbours, and are prepared to make sacrifices in our own lives for the greater good. Decades of democratic socialism have embedded it into our souls.

Sometimes with all the insane shit going on in the world, mostly caused by Trump, I wonder if I’m in a hospital somewhere (Canada, obviously), in a coma, and this is all a feverish dream.

Read
Paint
Write
Waterski
Snow ski
Walk down a slope
Pay a bill
Run a company
Run a country

It’s a good time of year to run these scams - Mar 31 is government year end and people often have their guards down, trying to process so many orders and invoices.
