Old but proud Canuck. Artist who still makes art. Retired pro makeup artist (Canadian Opera; CBC etc), retired costume and wig designer, and retired classically trained chef... Yeah- done a lot and seen a lot and it's STILL fun to get up in the morning.

Leaders of Young Republican groups have been caught red-handed joking about gas chambers, slavery, and rape in a private telegram chat.

The future GOP is being groomed to be as a deviant and unethical as the current GOP. Fucking sick.

This idiot keeps bragging about the 20 hostages being released in another country while he's kidnapping thousands of people a day here in America.

Fuck him and the fascism he rode in on.
