Just finished your memoir of sorts and loved it. FYI, you spelled Beverley Hunter's name incorrectly every time. Her name has 3 Es. Besides that, life is good and yes, she was a genius.

Thank you Donald Trump.

Leading up to the vote, Liberals were trailing in the polls until Trump began attacking Canada's sovereignty and levying tariffs on Canadian goods. #Canada

Canadian MP Charlie Angus: When we see people being pulled off the streets, when we see students at universities being grabbed, detained, and kidnapped, and when we see Kristi Noem filming this disgusting video, we’re looking at a nation we no longer recognize. We don’t want to be like that nation.

@joy.msnbc.com I am just so sad and sorry that @msnbc.com has treated you so shabbily. You are a star. Your interviews shine light into the cracks in our society. They are making a massive mistake...and now Katie Phang? I despair.

This is a tremendous speech.
Tyranny requires your fear, your silence, and your compliance.
Democracy requires your courage.

Donated yesterday
Wikipedia is useful. Musk and other power-hungry, wealthy people want to enclose it to limit the free and useful information it provides. Donate to help keep it going.
Elon Musk does not want you to donate to Wikipedia, which is itself a good reason to donate, but the much better reason is that it's Wikipedia. Just donated again last night.

Canadian House of Commons Member Charlie Angus: Canadians are very proud of our traditions. We know, having lived next door to our neighbors… that while our taxes might be slightly higher, it doesn’t cost us a dime to go to the doctor…

Good morning, Blue Sky. Felt very brave this morning and deactivated X. I'm off! And on...here. Need a salve, a balm after recent events.
