Born in Chicago, raised in Toronto, 40-year resident of Ottawa. I voted for Harris in '24, Biden in '20, HRC in '16 and Libs in '15, ‘19, ‘21 and ‘25. I mute idiots/trolls.
Stopped traffic in Hofu City, Yamaguchi Prefecture, Japan. What do you notice? That motorists leave proper spacing between them and the car ahead of them, perhaps?

Japan is an eminently civilized society.

Found the perfect beverage for Trump in the Meitetsu department store in Nagoya, Japan.

Toyota City Museum of Art. The building is a masterpiece of architecture.

This #BadgerDaylighting truck uses the Maitland EXIT LANE to merge into traffic.

Maybe the driver never drove in #Ottawa before. Or maybe he’s an ijit using an EXIT LANE to get ahead of traffic.

He holds up drivers who WANT TO EXIT AT MAITLAND.

This photo was my banner photo when I was on Twitter.

I still find it appropriate.

“What's today?" cried Pierre, calling down to a reporter.

"Today?" replied the reporter. "Why, Budget Day."

"Budget Day!" said Pierre to himself. "I haven't missed it. The Carneys have done it all in one night!”

“Tell the NDP to vote against; I shall give them cabinet positions,” he replied.

But … it’s a vacant lot. Where people died during Hurricane Ian.

Damn, not sure I can turn down a deal like this. 🧐

We’re in “The Shining” “Heeere’s Johnny” stage of the Trump presidency.

Inflation waa declining after the massive disruption of the pandemic. “The Economist” magazine called the U.S. economy “the envy of the world”.

The couch fucker is full of shit.

Perhaps everyone should just post this photo every single day of Trump’s remaining life.

Will the snow be gone by Thursday night, lads and lassies of #Ottawa? 🤔

I’m still getting real estate updates from Fort Myers Beach.

This illustrates the devastation. As well as the insane prices being demanded.

Theo Fleury is one fucked-up dude. 🙄

This house listed for sale at $1M in July 2023.

Now $700k.

Unscientific observation: I subscribe to new real estate listings for the FMB area, although I would never buy any property there now in the Age of Trump™️. Noticed I get very few notices of new listings compared to previous years.

He was trying to pretend that nothing was happening. But he knew something was happening.

It would be in-deli-cate to quit now, while the sub-posting is still hot and fresh. The prosecutors can still be ribbed. 🧐

City of Ottawa announcement:
November 7, 2025 at 1:07 AM
Speaker Johnson just said the Speaker Emerita Peolosi is retiring because she’s “too moderate for the neo-Marxists in the Democratic Party”.

The only “Marxists” in Congress are Johnson (Groucho), Jordan (Chico), Cruz (Harpo), Hawley (Gummo) and Graham (Zeppo).
