There are a lot of days that I think Iโ€™d rather be chasing cows down in Mexico.

But maybe chasing cows in snow and ice isnโ€™t such a bad price to pay for never having to think about screwworms. *shudders*

The fault lies not with the mob, who demands nonsense, but with those who do not know how to produce anything else.

All they have to do is convince ENOUGH voters that the Feds are the problem. Which theyโ€™ve already done. And those people accept it like religious doctrine.

Itโ€™s no joke that these people are basically MAGA. Itโ€™s friggin scary being a non conservative here, especially rurally.

Then you wildly misunderstand Albertaโ€™s governing party. The UCP doesnโ€™t have meaningful discussions. They donโ€™t negotiate. Anything other than total victory is a failure to them.

People want to believe that our leaders (both the evil and the less-evil ones) are constantly playing some sort of three dimensional chess.

And I dunno man- Iโ€™m just not convinced.

I think theyโ€™ve all been watching too much tv.

How CBC News will use AI responsibly to benefit our journalism โ€” and keep your trust | CBC News CBC is launching a new campaign aimed at reminding Canadians how our journalism can provide a safe harbour from the fake news and AI-generated content roiling through our feeds. As the campaign begins...

They wonโ€™t use it responsibly and they absolutely will lose my trust.

And I mean yeah, I donโ€™t expect unions and opposition parties to just fix everything for us.

But if you of all you can do with your resources and networks is announce a series of town halls, then whatโ€™s the point of your existence?

The basic pattern in Alberta is that we have a problem, everyone recognizes that itโ€™s a problem, and then the people whoโ€™s job it is to organize the fight against the problem are all too chicken-shit to do anything about it.

(Yes, this is about the ATA and AFL.)

Alberta to invoke notwithstanding clause to shield 3 transgender bills from court challenges | CBC News The Alberta government has tabled legislation that seeks to invoke the notwithstanding clause to shield a suite of bills that affects transgender youth and adults from legal challenges.

Welcome to Alberta, where no one except the ruling party has rights and thereโ€™s only one clause in the Constitution that matters.

12 year old asked me what a Sicilian Opening is in chess.

I have no idea, but he didnโ€™t appreciate my suggestion that itโ€™s one of the classic blunders, in which you go in against a Sicilian when death is on the line.

Te amo sin saber cรณmo, ni cuรกndo, ni de dรณnde,
te amo directamente sin problemas ni orgullo:
asรญ te amo porque no sรฉ amar de otra manera,

sino asรญ de este modo en que no soy ni eres,
tan cerca que tu mano sobre mi pecho es mรญa,
tan cerca que se cierran tus ojos con mi sueรฑo.
