The Fifty Grand Challenge
As I approach my 50th birthday, I'm reflecting on the current challenges facing Canada and its vulnerable communities. In celebration, I'm aiming to raise $50,000 for local organizations that support those in need. Together, we can help uplift our community.

A student on TikTok has been documenting her journey with a professor who “wrote” the anatomy textbook and it’s all a bunch of AI hallucinations.
She’s saying that, understandably, the students are doing super poorly!

Just received the first of two vaccinations to prevent shingles.
Given what I read in the media about vaccines, I think this means I should believe my Bill Gates microchip has been successfully installed.
Beep boop.
Seriously though - vaccines work. Get 'em.
