“I discovered a whole new affliction for old age, worse than balding… invisible to teenage girls.”

-Thirtysomething Season 3 Episode 2 aired Oct 3, 1989.

Am I just being sensitive here?
Am I overreacting?
I’m so used to be told it’s no big deal.

But it is.
It always has been a big deal.

The story of the Canada/Denmark Whiskey war of 2022.
And also the story of how a small group of Canadian soldiers stopped the Soviet tanks at the Denmark border and secured the freedom of the Danish people.

Black farmers are getting shut out by the Trump administration.

John Boyd, president of the National Black Farmers Association, says the WH told him, they are “moving away from DEI and small farm issues, and they were focusing on large-scale white farms… because they produce the most food.”

As much as we want to rip them a new one for getting us into this mess, when people on the right come forward and apologize and admit they were wrong, we should probably welcome them to the light.

The history of Black Canadians is one of relentless progress, earned through perseverance, and carried forward by opening doors for so many to follow.

This week, we celebrated 30 years of Black History Month in Canada.

About f--king time.
My question is why the media happily ran after every "flooding the zone with shit" play from MAGA Alberta while ignoring the obvious Donbas playbook being used in Alberta.
Donbas Danielle is not playing with fire.
She's burning our house.

Pew Research Institute (2023):

• Red State Texas has about 2.1 million undocumented immigrants

• Red State Florida has 1.6 M undocumented immigrants

• Blue State Minnesota has 130,000.

And yet only Minnesota is being occupied by masked thugs over "immigration."

It's *not* about immigration.

The minimum wage went up in 19 states this month — but the federal minimum wage has been stuck at a paltry $7.25 an hour since 2009.

Guess how much the wage would be today if it kept up with worker productivity over the years?
