Odds & Ends

A lot of crazy information out there muddling the atmosphere isn't there?  WOW.

* Mark Carney's doing a great job steering the good ship Canada up to now.  Hearing his plans and what he's doing actually gives me a lot of hope for where we live in this crazy world at this point in time.  I've had to get on board with some of this gov't's ideas, like LNG and pipelines, but he made it a point to at least counter some of the worst negative effects of those things, accelerating their productions in our fine country.  The carbon-capture facility the L's are proposing in the west is intriguing, providing a counter to the emissions concerns that come with oil production.  I would guess we have ten more years, tops, of profitable oil products, before we have to shift gears to clean energy and higher tech solutions.  Let me say this about battery-powered vehicles... I don't know that it's a good idea in Canada yet, as I haven't heard of a solid EV to thrive in our climate.  I love the idea of it, but feel like hybrid engines, with both electric and gas, pose the best choice at this time.  Not to mention, there is no infrastructure in this country to support charging vehicles while on the road.  In the States, I don't know if there ever will be.  I'll say this, on my part, I paid a lot of cash to buy a high-end electric lawn mower a year and a half ago, and it sucked.  They don't hold long charges and aren't very powerful, and it's not easy finding one with a side discharge instead of a bag.  I'd say maybe by the end of the decade they might be good, but I won't be a customer, I don't think, until they're proven more reliable.

* Then you have the Big Bombastic Buffoon (kudos to Claus Kellerman) running the circus in the States.  His approval rating has sunk to 27% favorability (I don't think he likes words with 'ability' in them), and I still think that's ridiculously high.  This means if you go to the States, on average if you enter a room with ten people in it, three of them are going to be supporters of a person with sexual assault and fraud on his record, with undeniable evidence of his past pedophile lifestyle.  He will bankrupt the U.S. just like he did his own companies throughout his shady career.  The U.S. will recover from what he's done/doing, but I doubt anyone alive today will see it happen in our time.  Providing he doesn't attack Canada with their military, which I think is more and more likely with all the ICE troops they have deployed along the border states and all the assets Canada has that the States needs, we Canucks will be in good shape.  And they would lose that conflict like they have every other war they've ever started.  They will lose in Iran, like they have every war since after World War II (World War III is arguably in its infancy right now.).

* I honestly have lost most of my faith in mainstream media news.  With the advent of independent news media on YouTube, MSM has been exposed as a manipulation machine that can be bought and paid for by crooked rich politicians and billionaires.  And there isn't a lot of hope for that changing.  As I write this, a Jared Kushner-backed bid for Paramount to acquire Warner Brothers is looking slightly likely, which would mean the political right would own the output of HBO, WB movies and TV, CNN and others.  As if Fox News wasn't bad enough.  If this happens, it's going to radically change my viewing habits and consumption, as it would for millions.  On the Canadian side, I'm a bit shocked at how our networks kowtow to U.S. coverage that alludes to how badly Russia is kicking Ukraine's ass, when the exact opposite is the overwhelming truth.  What they have to gain from reverse exaggeration like this completely escapes me.  Even CBC, to me pretty much the gold standard for Canadian news, can't seem to give us a positive Ukraine story.

* With the release of the Epstein files comes an avalanche of information we needed to hear, but are sad to, for a lot of it.  That is, what was unredacted at this point.  The Clintons are on the list, but without any solid proof of wrongdoing, other than that they're associated with Epstein.  But it's been known for a very long time how much of a creep Epstein and his wife were, and are.  All I have to say about all the shit going on in the world is just this:  All corruption in the world is rooted in Israel and Epstein.  Netanyahu is a madman bent on making the bible come true, instead of letting it unfold naturally.  Personally, I think the bible is fantastically misunderstood, and that change is coming soon that will clear up a lot of questions that people have today.  Namely via the Ethiopian bible, which tells the story in a different, perhaps superior language, giving more room for description and understanding.

* Chris Bledsoe is a unique, fascinating individual.  He attracts orbs and light beings and there's even much footage of him doing it.  There's supposed to be a chance of something possibly Fatima-like happening between March 15-20, so we'll have to see what might happen.  I'd give that a 20% chance of happening, but that might be generous.  I don't like hanging my hopes on prophecies and stuff like that, but this one is intriguing.  According to him, a powerful female divine energy is supposed to come into the world via the Lady of Light, which could be the Virgin Mary, but can also be other divine female entities in other religions.  You can imagine something like that - something to shake down the world's egos, and replace it with empathy and compassion.  The world needs this now more than maybe any time in accurate recorded history.

* I love the whole UFO discussion, but it's hard to find someone to talk to about it and be taken seriously.  This year and the next are supposed to be big years for disclosure of some sort.  I doubt we'll ever hear anything from government sources, and that it'll have to come out and be obvious to the masses as to what's happening.  I've seen and heard all kinds of theories, and it's hard to imagine that they're all true.  But what if they are, even if only some of them?  Even when theories and stories are corroborated by any evidence, they still get joked about and laughed at.  This isn't limited to UFOs.  Imagine a couple of outrageously popular talk show hosts linked to, but not in (yet), the Epstein files, with activities that include cannibalistic activities?  Pizza and jerky will never bee seen the same.  Un-aliving babies so they can be used for nightmarish purposes?  That shit's WAY crazier than anything about UFOs.  But guess what.... it's probably true.  So yeah, Chris Bledsoe, I really hope you're right.

* The Iran War is in full swing now.  Lots of people saying this is the "end times", which just may be, but the bible's description of it is quite brutal and not quite aligning with what's going on.  When Trump was first elected, I posited that he just might be the biblical 'antichrist', because that man is as religious as the ocean is dry.  All his actions and lying and deception kind of paint the picture of Beelzebub in pretty vivid detail.  But the real antichrist to me would be Netanyahu, who, partnered with Jeffrey Epstein, has all the damning evidence needed on key public figures to manipulate them to do whatever they want, and seeing as 'Yahoo' has Zionist tendencies of the highest order, this makes for what could be the most dangerous figure in recent history.  Maybe all of history.  The entire republican party, in fact, lines up with Yahoo's demonic tendencies (re: the genocide in Gaza, and the apparent genocide of Iranians that appears to be currently unfolding).  Yahoo does not believe in the same God most of us do.  And I believe there are several gods being worshiped in the world right now.  Any that have to do with death, hatred and violence have nothing to do with the God I believe in.  And, to me, the bible is not God's word, but man's interpretation of it.  If you ask me, the god in the old testament is not the same god as the one in the new testament.  The way the old testament god is described just seems batshit crazy to me at times.  God should have no ego.  But the God described in the bible has out of control ego at times.  This could be the human version of described events, because it's all we could understand in those days.  These are my thoughts, anyway.  But to those of you who believe in an angry, spiteful, vengeful God, you can have that to yourself.  The God I believe in is gender-less and has far more feminine energy than the western Christian one.  I respect any religion that does not focus on hate, violence and revenge.

* Maybe "left" and "right" in politics should be done away with.  Right now, Canada's leadership doesn't align with either side entirely, with the Carney government seeming to look to do what's right instead of standing on traditional tribalism.  Ego really entered politics in Canada once Harper came in to lead the re-branded Conservative Party, which became far more divisive and combative than any other party in Canadian history, to my knowledge.  The word "Liberal" became something of an incriminating nature to Conservatives, and now "Conservative" has kind of leaned toward the same kind of nature.  Us vs Them, sort of thing.  For instance, prime minister Brian Mulroney was much more climate-aware than any other progressive conservative in history, but once Harper took over, he threw that engine hard into reverse.  The result is that anything environmentally responsible is deemed as hatefully liberal.  That just doesn't make any sense.  People looking to be respectful of the air we breathe and the water we drink are villainized by conservatives as "Libtards", and helped inspire Canadian "own the libs" sects.  Not all conservatives, mind you, but the loudest people in the room are often the ones that get the most attention, mostly for dubious reasons.  Polly Ever (let's be real there... that's how he pronounced his name, until he realized he could better cozy up to Quebecers if he pronounced it 'Polly-ev') is constantly looking to pick fights with his opposition rather than debate rational policy.  He uses the exact same playbook as the Big Bombastic Buffoon does in the States, focusing on division and hatred, rather than bridging the masses together like the current Liberals are doing.  Ask Conservative premiers in Canada what they think of Carney's governing up to now and contrast that with Polly's radicalism.  The Conservatives need a less ego-driven, more reasonable leader than what they've had so far this century that will earnestly strive to make Canada better, not force divisions.  That said, I don't find the current Carney gov't to be left or right, or even center.  It just seems more common-sense.  I think the more we try to categorize people and put them in neat little boxes with labels on them just emphasizes differences more than commonalities.  In short, remove as much ego as possible from politics and you'd have much more constructive conversation.  You might even see some love peek through sometimes.

Anyway, that's all I have to say right now.  If I may offer, how about we all focus more on love than hate, more discussion than arguing, and more on what unites us than divides us?  I think we're all conditioned to point at differences and then inflate that rhetoric until the air is so thick with hatred and fear that we can be more controlled.  It's time to free ourselves.  Before being critical, maybe we need to think of the perception on the other end before we deliver the intention.

I wish peace to anyone who reads this.  Please pledge to be more loving.  We all need to be right now, more than ever.

Just a FYI...

 If you want to peek into my own everyday life, I put that stuff HERE AT THIS LINK now.  

Carry on!

Doom and Gloom? 2026

Ah, '25 is over.  Another heavy breather of a year right?

I thought I'd go back to last year when I posted a year-end, year-ahead type thing.  I wonder how my views or predictions turned out in the long run.  As every human goes, I'm subject to miscalculation or error.  

"Kamala came out of the gates to great fanfare.  Biden made it clear in the debate that he's in no condition to lead the U.S. for a second term.  If it were more clear that he wasn't running for re-election, perhaps the selection process could have been more concise.  Harris was basically coronated upon Biden's stepping down.  Now we're left wondering if Biden was right all along... could only he have defeated Trump?"

I still don't think Biden would have beaten Trump after that shitshow of a debate performance.  It was clear he wasn't able to continue.  What wasn't as clear is Trump's utter incapability in relation to his first term, which in and of itself was a disaster.  He began circling the drain immediately on starting his second term a year ago.  Kamala, on the other hand, pulled a Hillary and pretty much coasted to election day on her once-upon-a-time popularity.  Both were left stunned because they dropped their guards and got knocked out before the ten count.

Let's make it clear here... EVERYONE thought Kamala Harris was about to be the next president.  This is a fatal mistake in complacency.  To me, it was clear when Elon Musk made it obvious that he was going to interfere in the election when he showed up with a black baseball MAGA cap, which is a trademark for hackers on the internet.  Clear in retrospect, I mean.  But if one person contributes over a quarter of a billion dollars toward a far-right campaign, that should be alarm enough to wake people up.  But it fucking DIDN'T.  

Harris didn't have ample time to really mount an effective campaign.  Here's the ugly truth:  The very people Trump threatened all of his campaign to deport voted him into power.  Hispanic voters put him way over the top.  There was no shortage of black voters for him either.  I really hope that Muslim voters for Trump survive this, because they need to see what they've done to themselves.  And that's IF they get to stay.  And IF they survive the hate that's about to swarm their existences.

Wow, I hate to say it, but how accurate was that???  Seriously, I HATE to say it.  Who wants crap like this to come true?  But people are literally being swept out of the country now.  It's "You're white, or you're not right" territory.  Worse than the slavery era.  That's coming next, by the way, if it isn't happening already.  But the hatred fomented from this regime couldn't be more visible.  It's so bad, that even MAGA supporters themselves are finally getting a glimpse in the mirror.  I say it often, though.... I love a good redemption story.  I welcome the enlightened with open arms, regardless of your past.  And that, my friends, is "Christian".  And not the MAGA version.

And here's my takeaway from the whole ugly situation - this election was all about estrogen vs testosterone.  On Kamala's side, you had the "swifties" (that's a small 'S' on purpose there), Beyonce fans, movie stars, and countless celebrities vouching for her.  On Trump's side, you had your Dr. Phils, Kid Rocks, Dana Whites and Joe Rogans.  The fact of the matter is this:  America is not ready for a female leader.  They should be, but they are not.  They are not evolved enough.  Neither is Canada, for that matter.

I stand by everything I said.  And update.... the U.S. is Still not ready for a female leader, which actually they so very desperately need.  Canada is close, but not there.  In the meantime, we have the best leader on planet earth governing our country right now.

Rogan has a massive, massive audience, rife with machoism and alpha-male delusion.  Trump's campaign was a counter to Kamala's women-can-do-it-better appearance which very much upset the egos of the right.  She went on Fox and basically did the job, but she skipped Rogan, who fully endorsed Trump upon his interview with him.  Not being on Rogan may have been the tipping point.  She was fully capable of handling herself, so her decision not to appear on the podcast is a puzzling one, especially in retrospect.

And it's still puzzling to this day.  Kamala would've torn any potential Rogan attacks to shreds with education and facts, thus exposing his at-the-time machoistic bravado favoring Trump.  Not showing up to do just that turned out to be pivotal.  In the meantime, Rogan has since re-examined his beliefs of the day.  Not a fan of Rogan, never was, but I'd love to see another redemption story there.

Looking back, not giving Gavin Newsom, governor of one of the world's biggest economies (California), should have been given much more serious consideration.  Instead, he wasn't given any.  The fact that he's a man evidently would've given the Dems more of a chance.  One must wonder how different this outcome would have been had Newsom been in Harris' place.  The short-sightedness of Trump voters is staggering.  The dirt poor actually helped billionaires elect a faux-billionaire into power... again.  The entire rest of the free world sees what a threat he is to the world's democracy factions, steadily being whittled down by the far right.  

I stand by that still, too, but something about Newsom recently has come to light to me, in that he still takes megabucks support from billionaire donors.  Compare that to someone like Zohran Mamdani (NY governor), who took no endorsements from any corporate entities.  If your support is dependent on support from the ultra-rich, then you clearly can't resonate with voters on your own, and that's alarm bells to me.  Newsom would probably win today, and that would be an improvement of course over today, but come on, U.S.A.; you can do so much better than this.  At this point, if you're a supporter of Trump, you are a self-harmer.  And you need help.  I'm serious.  

The ramifications of the results of this election are going to be felt for many, many years.   

Kind of a no-shit-Sherlock calculation, but at the time, maybe not so much.  But it is so much worse than even I expected.  We are currently this day talking about the bankruptcy of the U.S. and the concurrent fall of its empire.  Trump has not single-handedly done this.  Stephen Miller is the Oz behind the puppet strings, among his billionaire buddies.  It's fascinating how no news org, online or on TV or anything else, has been tailing Jared Kushner since the Saudis gave him a couple billion for..... we don't know.  Trump was in illegal possession of documents at that time, too.  Infamously.  But the Saudis conspicuously get away with everything they do against the United States.  I don't understand the lack of scrutiny.

Ukraine will now be forced to surrender to Russia, who will then proceed to invade more European territories in its bid to re-establish the Soviet Union.  

Thank God this hasn't happened.  It doesn't look like it's going to, either.  The world, minus the obvious countries, is united with Ukraine to win this war, which was supposed to last all of three days.  Over three years later, and wow, is this situation upside down right now.  Russia is on the verge of falling.  All Ukraine really needs to do now is survive the winter strikes.  They will prevail.

Trump will stand idly by while this happens. 

It has never been more clear where Trump's loyalty lies.  Putin is as evil as they come, and there are U.S. citizens who adore him.  Not many, I don't think.  Or hope.  But Trump's obvious adoration for the Russian authoritarian tells you he has something on the O
range One.  Let me hypothesize something:  You have Putin, connected to Israel's Netanyahu, connected to Trump.  Add a dash of the Epstein files, with a surprise pee-tape, and you've got lots of blackmail to go around to getting done what you want.  Elon Musk may be the world's richest man, but make no mistake... the most powerful is Benjamin Netanyahu.  Also in the running for most evil with his other two pals.

Tariffs will be erected and crush taxpayers. 

I think we all knew that might happen, but wow, he is tariffing the country into oblivion.  I mean real oblivion.  This is a collapse of epic proportions that could go down in history right there with the fall of Rome.  

All the criminals responsible for the Jan. 6 debacle will be freed. 

He said it, he did it.  Now they're ICE agents with a blank check to pretty much purge whatever city they go to.  It's Bane's army from "The Dark Knight Rises" come to life.  

White supremacist groups will be empowered.  

And promoted.  They're well-paid and protected ICE agents.  Wait, let's call them Legal Criminals.

Jobs will be lost. 

Though that's not quite true, yet, it's about to be.  And compared to two million jobs gained a year ago, there were 584,000 gained this year, with layoffs accelerating as the year wore on.  World currencies are pulling their gold out of the Federal Reserve with the erosion of the U.S. dollar.  Something drastic needs to happen in the exact opposite direction soon if Americans are going to get through this.  

The poor will remain poor, and perhaps become more so.  Lumber trade in Canada will be choked by Trump's protectionism. 

I really don't like where things are going on the poverty issues, that's all I can say right now.  But the lumber trade is changing gears.  Canada is now entertaining offers overseas for its lumber after Trump decided a 45% tariff is needed.  The problem for Trump here is, when we make other alliances, we're not coming back.  Many other nations are pledging the same.  What, are we all supposed to think, "well, when the democrats get back in, they'll fix it again." I think the world is sick and tired of republican governments fucking up the entire world order.  I said it and I meant it, it's an illness.    

NATO will once again be bullied by him, and will return to its weak pre-Biden stature.  Under Biden, NATO was never stronger.  That will change.  By the way... Trump has said outwardly that he would not support a country that doesn't pay the full 2% of its GDP on the agreement.  Canada pays around 1.6%.  Also... after Alaska, Russia is right next door to us.  Literally. 

I think NATO will continue, perhaps under a different name, once the U.S. leaves, which it will inevitably do.  To think how powerful NATO had become under Biden and to see the state it's in now -- who do you think that benefits?  And with Canada, we'll be at 5% or more by the end of this decade.  Carney already sees the writing on the wall.  He's looking for 300,000 reservists and a revamping of the military and its equipment.  Being a world leader, much unlike Trudeau was, he sees what's coming down the pipe.  ICE is already today getting closer and closer to our borders.  With Trump in charge and un-elected wannabes like Stephen Miller overcharging their hate batteries, you can see the Nazism almost proudly glowing from their eyes.  But, the threat with Russia is getting less by the day, thanks to Ukraine, and no thanks to Trump.

The FDA is toast. Reproductive freedom, at best, will be state by state in its acceptance.  Trump himself may cause abortion rights to be completely eliminated.  If your crazy uncle raped your 12 year old daughter, too bad for her.  Miscarriage?  You might get charged and even go to jail.  Gilead is upon us. 

This one is still pending.  There's so much other stuff going on right now that this is kind of being drowned out.  But this is also only year one.

The Dems gambled on reproductive freedom being the sole issue for voters, basically ignoring the male electorate.  That's what a lot of it comes down to.... Trump catered to the men, Harris to the women.  Somehow, he managed to convince more men than Harris did women. 

One of the big catalysts in this whole debacle is the so-called Austin comedy scene and the accompanying "bro-sphere", rallying the young impressionable voters to the He-Man side of this slanted culture we're stuck in right now.  I remember the late '90s being like this - everything's in cycles I think.  But let me emphasize right now that Kamala Harris seems intent to take another shot at the presidency, which she has absolutely no place in anymore.  She lost this last election and then disappeared.  No rallying the people against the oppression that's currently raging across the U.S.  No placating victims of Trump's totalitarianism.  Just a short media blitz where she could promote a book full of excuses as to why she lost.  That's hardly the fighting spirit the Democrats desperately need right now.  But the next time a woman runs for the big job, she better not draw a line down the middle of the electorate and ignore the others.  This was her fatal flaw last year.

Elon Musk will get carte blanche to do whatever the hell he wants with the aerospace industry, including militarization, and also including colluding with Putin, which has already been happening anyway on a regular basis.  The U.S. will become Russia.  If Trump dies, J.D. Vance will take his place, which could be far worse.  Don't count this out from happening.  Trump is 78 and unhealthy.  Upon this happening, you may see Vice President Marjorie Taylor Greene.  Don't laugh or shrug.  There's a real chance of this coming true. 

Firstly, Elon got away with virtually murder.  He know owns the personal financial records of all Americans along with pertinent personal information, and together with Peter Thiel, another crazy billionaire donor, they're coming up with different ways to sway Pumpkin Boy to do their bidding.  Bear in mind, also, that Thiel is likely behind all the drone sightings that took place last year with his Palantir securities businesses (not UAPs or UFOs), and if he has that kind of technology, he may look to gain leverage for his own wacky human race becoming cyborgs ideas.  Laugh, but look it up.  It's well documented that Elon's a Special K special kind of person, but I'm not quite sure what Thiel's deal is yet.  Trump isn't dead yet, but he will be by summer, judging by his daily unraveling, that is when he's not hiding from the media, which itself is suspicious because he can't pass a camera without waving.  Then J.D. "smokey eyes" Vance will take over.  Couches everywhere will tremble in fear.  Marjorie Taylor Greene, on the other hand, supposedly has seen the light and rebelled against the Great Pumpkin, inciting his fury.  And I don't trust her in the least, except maybe to force the release, finally, of the Epstein files.  And the U.S. is more alike to Russia now than ever before - maybe more than Russia is itself right now.  All of the U.S.'s allies have been abandoned in favor of President Poopypants' favorite lineup of dictators.  With virtually no pushback.  The Democrats have never looked weaker than they have in 2025.  Not since I've been watching.

And what's the next January 6 going to entail?  Will the Dems peacefully hand over power?  They must.  Not to do so would undermine what the party is all about to begin with.  Biden appointed Merrick Garland to AG with confidence he would resolve the legal matters regarding the attempted coup in 2020.  Garland dragged his feet the entire way, only hiring special counsel Jack Smith near the homestretch of the election.  Smith didn't have ample time or resources to get the job done, as much as he wanted to get it done, and even with a real measure of urgency.  But the Supreme Court is already stacked in Trump's favor.  And the 6-3 republican ruled judges have Trump's back if worse comes to worse and he actually was looking like he had to resort to it.  I've said for years that Garland is in Trump's pocket.  I still think he is. 

Firstly, Democrats should be so upset at Garland's lack of action that they really should impeach the former AG.  It's led to the destruction of the country, which may be entirely irreversible at this point.  Jack Smith brought the goods and nailed his case down, but he was appointed too late.  He had a solid case to put Trump away for good.  But the adjudicated rapists and convicted felon and fraudster from his crime family got in and is currently gutting the country of its money and reputation worldwide.  I'll go further than that.... Trump should be investigated for the murder of his last wife, Ivana.  This will come out.  He should also be looked at, of course, for the murder of Jeffrey Epstein.  There may be others.  If he's willing to go to places that dark, who knows what depths he's willing to go to.  As it is, Jack Smith has been indicted for his actions in his investigations of the Criminal in Chief.

Trump is to be sentenced later this month for his 34 felonies.  He can pardon himself when he takes office.  He will get away with everything.  Everything.  Tell me, "pro-lifers", is it worth it?  Because abortion will not be wiped out.  Only legal abortion will.  Support for newborns is the ideal anti-abortion strategy.  Quell the fear of what's to come for expecting mothers.  Don't fucking threaten them with jail time.  And stop giving excuses to deadbeat dads. 

And like I frequently keep pointing out, the patriarchy in charge of the U.S., and most of the world right now, will continue the virtual slavery of women for as long as it can keep them at bay and under control.  Pregnant?  As soon as the gov't finds out, you are under their control.  Miscarriage?  You may be tried for murder.  This stuff is right around the corner.  Maybe it's current already.  This won't change for at least a few generations.  Old white men especially are desperately fearful of bright young women.

So long to Obamacare.  Trump's "concepts of a plan" will take good care of you, I'm sure. 

Healthcare is still a massive problem in the States, but the ACA got a bit of a reprieve when a handful of republicans voted with the dems to extend the benefits before they ran out, as I understand it.  These "concepts of a plan" apparently still exist, in the make-believe world of the GOP.  Or Guardians of Pedophiles, as it stands to be.  The Epstein Files are being forever stalled for their release by Mike "Grindr" Johnson frequently, as is popular knowledge to this day.

Brace for more heartless deportations and more kids in cages, being separated from their families, likely permanently. 

That's happening under ICE everyday now.  Every day in the news is a new tragedy.  Just the other day a five year old was deported without their parents, with no one to care for them.  This is common now.  ICE is killing people who peacefully protest and kidnapping non-whites and having them sent to concentration camps.  I was sadly too accurate about this.

Oh, and one more before I go.... the next pandemic, if it happens with the Orange Turd in power like last time, will be an even bigger shitbowl than Covid-19.  A potential Covid-20 may just be unrecoverable.  And Robert Kennedy Jr. will see to it. 

Measles outbreaks happen regularly now with kids dying while vaccines are being taken out of the health curriculum for kids.  The CDC was gutted.  Research for pediatric cancer was stopped just when it was on the verge of major discoveries.  You have RFK Jr. telling people to drink raw milk because it's better for you.... if you can survive it.  I could go on and on about the debacles that he's racked up since he's been in charge, but I don't want to do this forever.

Because Pierre Poilievre, whose campaign is being run by actual Trumpers, is next here. 

And boy, is that catching up to him!  He absolutely blew his chance at becoming prime minister by being the same ignorant, petty, uninformed twit that his orange counterpart is down there - but I think Canadians are smarter and more privy to PP's hateful rhetoric.  People chose Mark Carney because he's none of those things and has intellect with a heart, hard to find in politics.  I have to ask conservatives... is this really your guy?  He's the one you're hanging your future on?  Even Stephen Harper credits Carney over PP.  I'd love to see a conservative leader that will actually push government to improve, rather than try to score cheap points on the House floor.

And here we are, January 25, 2026.  Things are looking up for Canada; not so much for the States.  The democrats have given up and ceded power to the republicans with barely any pushback.  Although there are signs that the public is waking up.  Politicians, not so much.

I'll ponder what might be ahead and post that next.  Actually writing this got my anxiety up, so it's time for a 'hit'.  

Please take care of yourselves, and each other.  More than ever.

Farewell for now, Bob Wallace.  Mr. Wallace has passed... he was a teacher at my high school, and a family friend and contributor to the goodness of planet earth.  He is already missed.
