Trees, food, dogs, niche philosophy and probably swearing. Health is more than the absence of one disease. Quality of life > quantity.

Not sure why there should be celebration about a traumatised people returning to a land where there is no food/means of producing food, no safe and reliable water supply, very little shelter, no functioning health system, no schools, no universities and on and on and on...

Itโ€™s a nightmare isnโ€™t it. Good thing it wasnโ€™t on your house, especially with all the rain weโ€™ve been having.

Hi Cathy. Hope the pups are still getting along well. Have missed seeing you in the other place.

If you think Labor is good for the environment and transparency of government, then I don't know what to tell you, other than you're wrong.

My main frustration with #TheHandmaidsTale seasons 2-6 was that the US citizens were portrayed as the heroic Christian saviours, when it was them who created Gilead in the first place. The call is coming from inside the building, guys. The original HT needed a Canadian to see that. #EyesOnGilead

Never circle back.
Never touch base.

Haha, had exactly the same thought.

Hey Rick, Iโ€™m reading Mean Streak at the moment. Grateful to have a writer of your calibre reporting on this horrendous policy. Also a useful reminder of what an absolute dickhead Scott Morrison was/is.

Donโ€™t think so. We couldnโ€™t have an atheist or agnostic hero now, could we.

Yelling at the tv last night. I can forgive the June Zooms and her endless capacity to survive against the odds, but come on.

One thing that has really annoyed me about recent seasons of #TheHandmaidsTale is how theyโ€™ve made June into a super Christian, presumably to appease the US audience. Atwood would never.

I saw the red herring. Still failed to get it.

I do that. The more important the day, the less I sleep. It is so annoying. Hope it goes well and you can get a good sleep tonight.
