This is not acceptable. When he is making cuts to services at the same time he hands his friends jobs where they make a base salary of over half a million dollars a year. @mark-carney.bsky.social is already the worst PM since Harper.

It was decidedly NOT for his plethora of extra-judicial murder-by-drone strikes and their innocent bystander casualties...

So apparently I was supposed to be at work today. When the supervisor called asking where I was, I was floored! 14 years and I've never done this before. Got here in 15mins though!

I just miss human touch so much. Wish I didn't!

The fact a Venezuelan woman, Maria Corina Machado, won the Nobel Peace Prize ought to burn the orange man-burrito more than just about any other outcome.

Oh boy...! What do you do for physical affection, if you don't mind my asking? I think that's the hardest part for me. I feel achey if I go too long without seeing my folks' dog, who is my sole source.

Sometimes I wish I lived in a big culturally-vibrant, and intelligent city like Vancouver or Montreal. One major difference is I bet I'd have a partner or had a bunch by now.

I've lived alone for 13 years - today (It autocorrected to "loved' and I laughed ruefully and almost left it.)

'night then.

I'm going to order some dioxyribose gel for hair regrowth next pay. Anyone tried it/know that it works?

First full day that they've been home. So a little over an hr ago I text dad: "So have you convinced her yet?"

He replies immediately: "Almost! Did you leave a recording device here somewhere??"

Maybe a little woo -- but I also know dad's permanent petition for 'dinner out'!

And we meet in 40! 😄

Your ethical debt is too massive to make any statement on the most heinous evil of the 21st century.

There has been a lot of ICE activity in the Rogers Park neighborhood of Chicago today. There has also been a lot of ICE watch and rapid response activity. We love our community, and we are showing up for each other.
