The common thing about Trump supporters on both sides of the border is they will continue to make excuses for him no matter what.

I can't help wondering if Nazi salutes get thrown around on a regular basis when Musk is with his white supremacist pals. Is it possible that he never caught on that it shouldn't be used in public? Maybe it was muscle memory and he forgot where he was? Nobody in that crowd seemed bothered by it.

When people ask me if I believe in climate change I tell them it's not a belief! The facts are there and scientists have done an excellent job of explaining it in laymen terms. There is no reason not to "believe" it is happening.

Canadians! I'm seeing cheap knockoffs of these hats for sale online. Make sure you buy them from the Canadian company that originally created them! strongandfreehat.ca

Canada! Tariff the fuck out of Tesla products!

It must have been weird being a space-enthusiast in the early 1940s. On the one hand, you'd be thrilled that the Nazis were launching rockets into space. But on the other hand, you'd be desperately hoping that those rockets would fail. In other news, apparently Starship blew up yesterday.

I'm trying to figure out what percentage of the population in general has no idea how evil Elon Musk is. It just boggles my mind how that fucking guy gets heaps of undeserved praise and recognition.

So why does the US need Greenland to badly? For security purposes? Against Russia? That can't be the reason because Trump assures us he has Putin fully under his control. Am I missing something?

Do you remember a few months ago how some prominent accounts were assuring us that Kamala was going to win and that Trump was going to get convicted for real? They were even going as far as blocking anyone that expressed a hint of a doubt. Not sure why but I still can't get that out of my head.

SpaceX was awarded 3 billion dollars to develop a human landing system for Artemis. They have spent all of it and haven't been able to reach a single milestone to get to the moon. The 3B is supposed to be a fixed amount. I guess we will see what happens when Musk becomes co-President.

Bloomberg, Aug '24: With Trudeau at the helm, Canada became an international trade powerhouse, boosting exports by 45% since 2015. Imports increased 3.6% annually, meaning Canada sold goods and services faster than it bought. That's a reversal from the prior 15 yrs. #cdnpoli #peipoli

Over a year ago when I was on the bird site; a Trump supporter tried to hurt my feelings by calling me Patricia Booby. I made the mistake of showing the tweet to my kids and they have been calling me that ever since.
