Just a Canuck who wants to support other hard-working Canucks. I am not paid (in any way, including merch). Just sharing things that I think are worth sharing. That includes some pet pics. And encouragement to see Operation Mincemeat: A New Musical 💼

No arrests of the ICE thugs who murdered Alex Pretti, Renee Good, or Keith Porter. No arrests of anyone in the Epstein Files. But they arrested Don Lemon because of his journalism.

I know you've heard that a federal judge ordered the release of 5 year old Liam Conejo Arias and his father, and that they're now home.
But did you look at the judge's order?
It's less than 2.5 pages and well worth a minute. "Jesus wept."

Vivaldi is one of my fave browsers.
💡How we come up with new features:
1. The idea often comes from a user
2. We get together & discuss how to implement it
3. Then the worst part comes, where we need to convince our shareholders of the value of the feat....wait, we are employee-owned, so if we want to do something, we just do it 😎🤘

Nope.
Not gonna happen.
I have free tickets that will probably expire before the regime does but more than that, I have morals.
