I believe in the power of an idea. I believe good government provides safety nets for people and damn, we live in times that are too interesting. Bee keeper, gardening, politics, books, and cooking, family and friends

So Trump says the Strait of Hormuz is open and no problems. As tankers are ablaze in the gulf, the only ships that are safely transiting are the ones carrying Iran oil. Guess where that oil is going? India and China.

This morning, I spoke with Ken Kilcullen
from Vista Radio in Kelowna about the future of our forests.

From commercial thinning and BCTS, to international partners, to forest sector transformations. We covered much of what the vision is for forestry in BC.

It’s official! We’re springing forward just one more time, and then we’re adopting permanent daylight savings time in BC. 🕰️

That means more sunshine and better sleep for people across our province.

This is a screen shot of a Tweet by our Foreign Minister. If you are in touch with your Canadian friends/families, please pass it on. There are some phone numbers and contact information that perhaps can be useful.

They Killed Their Abusers. Should They Spend Their Lives in Prison? A new law was supposed to help reduce the sentences of survivors of domestic violence. Most are still behind bars.

The Oklahoma Survivors’ Act, passed in 2024, was supposed to help reduce the sentences of prisoners who survived domestic violence if the abuse they endured was found to be a “substantial contributing factor” to their crime. Most are still behind bars.

Let me just make a few little adjustments to that title…

“How a scientist with a PhD in Geology and 25 years of experience is helping lead California’s earthquake work”

Way to devalue my experience.

From what I know about you ( you are empathetic. Kind and intelligent) and what I know about the show… it is passionate.. and is a role model of consent and definitely depicts the fear of gay love in hockey. I would appreciate your response to it.

I agree, when all this is over, there should be something put up in every museum. However, it won’t be the display they envision… more a warning to future generations. ‘It can happen here to!’

A Secret Oil Cartel Might Have Killed Our Clean-Energy Future In a landmark antitrust case, Michigan alleges oil companies colluded to “capture and kill” clean-energy and electric-vehicle efforts.

Big Oil "purchased solar and EV patents to ensure others couldn’t use them, solicited control of renewable markets and then abandoned them, and funded powerful institutions to promote false solutions, all while using trade groups to downplay the harms of fossil fuels, according to the complaint." 😠

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

I needed to share because it is as funny as it is embarrassing. I have enjoyed your posts but read ‘Harlem’ and assumed it was gorgeous, quiet mornings in New York city!! I was surprised with the old city feel and cleanliness and chastised myself for my assumptions. Today I read the 2nd post😂 Duh!

I had the same experience.

As a test after a written assignment, I now have kids right a paragraph explaining what that they wrote for the assignment. Making sure they actually wrote the assignment themselves!

I sat next to a man on a plane reading one of these books. I asked him where he was in story and told him to be specific as I needed to know if we could have a conversation or not. He answered and we could not talk. I felt like giving him my card for the therapy he would need two chapters later.
