We’re building a 4-season greenhouse here in southern Ontario. Huge volumes of reclaimed insulation and tons of thermal mass will allow for tropical produce year round. Today was a big day, after 3 weeks of work, the concrete floor & walkways were poured.

Next week we start building the structure!

Our bipolar pooch. With us, she’s an absolute cream puff. With anyone else, a weapon of mass destruction.

Pubmed is the online resource where virtually all legit medical & medical-related research is catalogued. I just used the search term COVID-19 and returned >480,000 studies.

Throughout the pandemic libertarians have sought to attack & denigrate legit public health policies.

My therapist after our first session of 2025. Dr Moonshine strongly suggests we spend less time on politics and more time on horseback.

Don’t fuck with Freeland. She beat Putin as a 20 y/o, she beat DFT in the NAFTA redo. She’ll crush Nazi Elmo.
