Was just in a furniture store looking for a new living room chair. Barrel. Glider. Small footprint. Was homing in on a nice one when a salesguy happened by & said, "It's a good chair, but you should know it's an American manufacturer" I jumped & made a face and now I'm getting one from 🇲🇽 instead.

What's that they say about history not repeating, but rhyming? Here's our 1888 version PM, quoted in the NY Times cooly saying if the States don't want to trade, we'd still be fine. If you read to the end of the article, some of the Americans in attendance endorsed his words as well!

Who's responsible for giving that goggle-eyed weirdo the confidence to sit up there puffing his chest out at Schiff and thinking he's intimidating? Stare harder, jerkwad. After watching all three of those Senate hearings, I'm really beginning to question my Imposter Syndrome.

Sitting in the Royal Alex in Toronto waiting for Come from Away to begin. You know, the play about that time 38 International flights were diverted to tiny Gander NFLD because there was a terrorist attack in NYC, and the whole town pitched in to help out. Seems like another time.e, now.

On the verge of pulling the plug on Facebook today, but need a way to wrangle all the disparate cousins I've collected over there first. Scrolling through the follows of a FB friend who has migrated here, and holy heck - there are so many familiar screennames from my livejournal days.
