These boxes are bagged Lego sets. I have way too much #Lego. (No, not really possible).
Going to watch the #sumo wrestling in London's #RoyalAlbertHall in October

Anyone else on here going?
Soon will be off to the UK to see family and go to #sumo
That's how we, as a short lived species. grow. Without those who come before us, we're nothing.
Then along came Lucas, he based Star Wars on Dune.
Ah true! Syndicated, very possible!

I think your work is great, keep going.
Maybe the first? I dunno, I love your stuff, I was also doing comics as an out trans woman way back when. Probably you were the first but a few others of us were around. I haven't done anything related to comics in a long time.
I'm on strike. It's needed, badly.

Sucks financially, I'm not going to make mortgage payments and will have to use my savings.

But without strikes we keep getting below inflation or 0% wage increases.

Rural Canada (where I live) has the same. Different terms, but same result.

Bogan = Hoser
What's the origin of "bogan"? If it has one.
USA: If only we knew why
World: Guns.
USA: Music? Comics? D&D? Games?
World: It's GUNS.
USA: Maybe it's anti depressants?
World: Guns.
USA: We need to take away more rights, & add more guns.
World: The problem is the guns.
USA: If we just crack down harder & arm more people, then maybe...
World: FFS
If he can stay healthy, he's going to be a great Ozeki.
WOW

USA is going to take a long time to recover from this.
That's actual freedom - where people can be themselves

Not fake freedom where you keep restricting people more and more

Just delightful
As we sit down a woman comes past carrying multiple swords - for naked sword fighting on the beach

The West coast was out west coasting itself
I had possibly the most Canadian West coast experience possible yesterday

We were at a nude beach with friends

Under a giant sun shade they brought with

Multiple puppies walk past, guys wearing or carrying puppy play masks

See an acquaintance who is doing naked shibari suspension from trees
Stop posting about JK Rowling with polite words & terms.

She is not gender critical.

She is a bigot, a TERF, who promotes hatred of a minority, she is even funding hate in other countries.

Gender critical is "Ooh, not sure about that skirt, love."

TERF is "You don't have a right to exist."
Remember:

If a MAGA is making noise, that noise is a lie.

They may believe that lie to be true, with all their heart, but that does not make it true.

Belief does not equal fact.

A fact remains a fact - until changed by another fact.

A belief cannot change a fact.
But what we do know is this:

Guns make you less safe, you don't need a gun for self defence unless you live in a society where everyone has guns.

Then the answer is get rid of the guns, not more guns.

In Canada you can defend yourself using reasonable force. It is legal.

Never believe MAGA.
Police could be very wrong. ACAB.

Or ... maybe the homeowner went ham on the burglar & tried to take him out in fear and adrenaline rush, going far over the line of reasonable force.

We don't know. At all. Pure speculation.
Break into my house and I will defend myself. As should you.

Reasonable force means stop hitting someone when they can't hit back. Don't stab someone when they are incapacitated.

For the police to charge the homeowner in the case - some shit WENT DOWN.

We just don't know what yet.
Here's where it gets interesting, in the case that MAGA is freaking out about, www.cbc.ca/news/canada/..., we don't know any of the details. All we know is homeowner is fine, burglar airlifted to hospital in life threatening condition.

Everything else is speculation.

Anything could have happened!
Ontario man charged after confronting intruder inside home allegedly used knife, court docs say | CBC News
The Lindsay, Ont., man facing criminal charges for allegedly attacking a home intruder is accused of using a knife in the incident, court documents show.

Almost all guns in Canada that are used in a crime are illegally here from the USA. Sort that out.

We are allowed to defend ourselves if someone breaks into our house - but the defence has to be "reasonable force".

So if someone shoves you, you can't hit them with a brick.
The police are charging the burglar with criminal damage, assault with a weapon etc. But also charging the homeowner too.

That's the bit MAGA is going nuts about.

They are claiming that because Canada doesn't have guns, & you are not allowed to defend yourself, it is not safe.
The MAGA-sphere - or dumbland - is going nuts over an event in Ontario Canada.

A home was being burgled by a guy that had a weapon (knife/screwdriver, something, not a gun), the home owner defended himself with a knife. The burglar was sent to hospital in a life threatening condition. OK, so ...
