Canada's Liberals are currently led by what used to be called a "Red Tory". A fiscal conservative that isn't also a disgusting horror in a skin suit or Dollar-Store Milhouse.

It's a very very low bar, but I have a bit of hope.

Missed opportunity to walk him off a cliff.

I don't wish him any harm, but Gravity is a Harsh Mistress as they say.

Normally I'd say "Eat The Rich", but like so many of them he looks like skin, gristle and recreational pharmaceuticals. Bleh.

I hope they're all ok, they're certainly braver folk than I.

Keep the seas, I've got mountains yet to climb.

Find what bits of peace you can and use them to shore up the scraps of sanity this world has left.

Make it a pay-per-view, funds to go to food banks and I'll host a watch-party in Canada.

These folks:

Our local food bank reshuffled their layout to create a shopping-like experience for people to fill hampers for themselves from the foods available for precisely this reason.

Truly *Decent* people taking care of others.

I Completely Agree. Our local foodbank is more efficient than any other non-profit I have seen.

Side benefit; I hate shopping and even were they not so efficient I would pay a premium to be able to hand them cash and let them pick up the most needed items.

Ma'am, even setting aside just for a moment your own not-inconsiderable personal worth as a human being you are a Mom. In that role you will have value long beyond your last breath.

Keep fighting for every moment.

I take a measure of cold comfort in the very small number of them that feel comfortable crawling out of their basements to show up.

I'm still sickened by any of them doing so, thank you for your reporting on it.

I'd ask to whom you were referring, but the list is sadly very long at the moment and probably wouldn't fit in a reply.

Such a wonderful person, and a voice sorely missed.

*from. Damnit. This is why we need to pay teachers better.

Once upon a time, in a province just like this one, a crazed lunatic thought herself Queen of all she surveyed. This terrible creature stole from old and young alike, stealing their medical care and leaving them only foreign "medicine" and handing the gold form the kingdom's taxes to her cronies...

Alberta has a ton of radioactive elements, and we're already polluting more by digging in the oil patch. Send them our way. It's the "less terrible" option for us.

So *this* is what Daft Punk was going on about?
Harder Better Faster Stronger?

...ugh, I liked their earlier stuff so much better.

Trains.

Hell Yeah.
