Abysmal statement from Canada on the illegal US action in Venezuela.

It doesn’t matter how much you dislike Maduro, that doesn’t justify a violation of international law and the UN Charter. You can’t call on “all parties” to respect international law and not call out US lawlessness.
Please see my statement on the situation in Venezuela:

Was fortunate to have some nice, foggy weather these last couple of days after several rainy weeks. Grateful to have a cozy New Years Eve to end the year.

Honestly, the hardest part of going to the gym to do weight training is not the discipline to do the physical exercises, it's to stay and finish despite annoying people getting in the way.

Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.

Yesterday we finally tried watching one of those hallmark type Christmas romance movies, and oh lord was it ridiculous, but also surprisingly boring. 😄

Just before midnight, Clara woke with a start. By the light of the moon, she softly tiptoed downstairs to find her wooden prince.

Then she heard a rustling & scuttling coming from upstairs. She looked up, and a thousand pairs of eyes glared back at her... mice! 2/

It's been some time, but I'm back with a new addition to my 'elvish designs' series. Thrilled to add a moth to the collection as they're some of my favourite insects. #moth

Haven’t been around much because the world and social media have been bumming me out. But here’s Hilda wearing a scarf like a proper cat.
