Ehwoo, eh?

Blissfully retired Software Janitor/Archeologist

I drink coffee.
I know things.
I still tell machines stories.
Thought for the day:

In 2024, there were 244,666,890 eligible voters in the US. The turnout was 64% or 156,766,239 voters. Of them, 49.8% voted for Trump (77,284,118) or 32.6% of all eligible voters and Harris got 48.3% (74,999,166) or 30.7% of all eligible voters..

New alliances will be formed and Canada will play a central part in that. I don't know if the US will ever recover from this. Not without drastically changing the political system and getting rid of the Electoral College and the massive influence of big money on politics.

We had a customer at the shop who was concerned with what was happening in the US... but made it clear he approves of ICE and deporting "illegal" immigrants.

I tried to explain why the latter is a big cause of the problems in the US and even made progress while being civil.

But... (Boss said yes)

So a hint for my American friends...

When Orange Tumor started threating Canada with annexation, we stopped going to the US. That's resulted in billions of lost US dollars.

In the same way, stop dealing with businesses that support the GOP and ICE.

This can help:

"The dispute is looming large in the lives of Greenlanders. Greenland’s prime minister, Jens-Frederik Nielsen, said on Tuesday that “if we have to choose between the United States and Denmark here and now, we choose Denmark. We choose NATO. We choose the Kingdom of Denmark. We choose the EU.”"

If you plan on voting by mail in the US in November, be aware that the feds have changed what qualifies as a valid mailed in vote.

You might consider voting in person, or getting your ballot hand postmarked at a post office near you.

This may be the dictionary definition of "walking a fine line"...

Sorry, but two wrongs do not make a right. Invading a foreign nation and kidnapping the head of its government, no matter how illegitimate they are, is an international crime.

The US had no right to do this.

But, I thought the US didn't need anything from Canada... I guess that didn't include our money?

Also when did NAFTA/CUSMA *obligate* Canadians to buy or resell American products? If they bring in US booze, Canadians won't buy it, so why bring it in?

Oh gods... this sugar free "chocolate caramel" non-dairy creamer's sweetener is like drinking a soprano's high C note.

Ahhh... there we go... Now it's just one octave above middle C.

Much more mellow.

OH BOY OH BOY!

DC Comics is launching a new line of comics called "Next Level" after "KO" that will feature all new, never seen before titles like "Batwoman", "Deathstroke", "Firestorm", "Zatanna", "Lobo", "The Demon", "Barbara Gordon" and another Batman title!

Yes, that's sarcasm.

The Fraser Institute, the Canadian conservative "thinktank", issued its "Human Freedom Index". It ranked Canada at 12th, dropping by 0.03 pts between 2019 and 2023, and the US at 14th, dropping by 0.04 pts.

It will be interesting to see the 2026 scores...
