Donated a little money to the @londonfoodbank.bsky.social as a way of giving thanks to Canada for being a good friend to the US, even when 🇺🇸 acts like a jerk to 🇨🇦. Sorry. I hope others will Donate as well. I felt this was a good way to celebrate 🇺🇸 Thanksgiving, by giving thanks to our friends.

THIS IS WHO WE ARE. America lean toward fascism. It just does. We aren't much better than where we were at the end of the Civil War. I hate to feel this way.....but the facts are what they are. We RE elected Trump. The justice system is taking away civil rights protections, etc.

Went to the @maple--leafs.bsky.social game in Columbus last night. The Maple Leafs were losing 5 to 1 at the end of the second period, so my son and I left early. We went to an arcade and watched the rest of the World Series instead. Go @torontobluejays.bsky.social!
