Garden Report.

I grew melons. Kajari melons. Similar to honeydew, but with a fresh-from-the-garden elevation in taste. I grew these in my friends' yard up-valley; they wouldn't make it to maturity in the community garden - they'd be lost to 'community' long before that. Anyway, nice melons.

Game on

Sorry

However you get your kicks. ;)

Sorry to break it to you, but...
Journalists have opinions and leanings.
Bias is not betrayal.
Pretending otherwise only fuels polarization.
And makes you look dumb. #cdnpoli

Garden Report.

Spread some shxt on the grow beds, including around the already sprouted garlic. Now the car smells. Planted some lettuce and spring onions I started inside. Also transplanted some overwintered lettuce! All nicely prepped and planned, presently, before it all goes tilt later.

And soon if they want the cameo.

(Hi Anna!)

A simple sign calls us to dig deep and see who we really are. Although many of us have not been touched by harm, we are at that point where we can save our future or allow it to be another era of suffrage. Ask yourselves the hard question? Will you step outside of your comfort zone?

Plan for her future - get her a drone!

Here’s hope “research from Harvard University on historical movements shows that "no government has withstood a challenge of 3.5% of their population mobilized against it during a peak event."9,10 It's called the "3.5% rule." It's a relatively tiny percentage. We can get there.

Beauty continues despite us

Whether red or blue, we're not joining you. You'll have to fix this yourselves.

What? But you're a kitchen goddess! How have you missed chicken noodle soup till now?

Americans,

If you're not part of the solution...

America,

Canada is breaking up with you.
We won’t be buying your products or services.
We won’t be visiting your country.
We won’t be helping you anymore.
Don’t expect the removal of tariffs to change this.
It’s not us.
It’s you.

We see you.

America,

We see your “Christians” deriding empathy! - WWJD?
We see you choosing Russia over Ukraine, Israel over Palestine.
We see you treating your own citizens terribly.
We see you threatening your allies.

We see you saying Canada will be your 51st state.

Who the hell would join you now?

America,

We see you choosing racism, sexism, ableism.
We see you erasing non-white heroes, female heroes, from your history.
We see you disappearing protestors, who the constitution protects.
We see you denying the due process your constitution guarantees.

Who would join this?
Not us Canadians.
