Trump altering the New York Times headlines does as much to change the news and public opinion as altering a weather map with a sharpie did to alter the path of a hurricane.

I'm not a huge fan of Carney who is too right-wing for me (I'll probably hold my nose and vote liberal anyway) but this was the best quote of the debate.

Stephano🍁Barberis - Yet another fact-checked lie by Poilievre (he also lied about 200,000 affordable homes built under his govt; it was 4,000). The percentage of people’s income that are taxes has remained unchanged since 2016. #cdnpoli

I logged on my Hobbit burglar, Kateypie for the first time in awhile in #LOTRO and had to refigure out the various skills. She mainly cooks but I couldn't pass up an invitation to start Evendim. I love that area and the silly quests that kick it off.

Wake up Alberta!

These houses got fixed up into rental flats.

With regard to the US concentration camp in El Salvador where US Dictator, Trump is sending people he wants disappeared, it is useful to remember that Auschwitz wasn't in Germany. Hitler shipped people out of the country to be killed, preserving plausible deniability for Germans not wanting to know.

Regarding the US facility in El Salvador, let's get our language right. This is NOT a "prison" which is a place people are sent after due process and conviction by courts to serve a sentence. This is a "concentration camp" where dictators send people with no process, sentencing or hope of release.

Just a block I sketched.

Sketched the Queen Streetcar in my itty bitty watercolour book.

@msnbc.com has been reporting all morning that Musk has made significant contributions to Republican Congress members who have brought impeachment motions against judges. How is it that no one is saying "This is a bribe". "This is public corruption on display". Are we that numb?

The Tesla boycott seems to be sending a strong signal. I think that we've got to think about boycotting other enablers like Bezos. I know, I know it is hard to go cold-turkey on Amazon. Babysteps, research other outlets before buying. If you are a Prime subscriber consider cutting the frills.

🔥🔥🔥👍👍👍 Nearly 500,000 fewer travellers crossed the land border from Canada into the U.S. in February compared to the same month last year. #cdnpoli www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

“The US spent 8 decades building an international system of rules, norms and values that has produced the longest period of great power peace and global prosperity in human history.” Fareed Zakaria on how upending the world order will only weaken America: www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

MAGA wants peace in the same way a guy that beats his wife just wants a happy marriage.
