I was feeling inspired to write something about yesterday's events at the White House... open.substack.com/pub/aplaceto...

A sure sign spring is on the way in New Ross is the presence of taps and buckets on trees as the sap starts to flow...

Sharing more townhall videos today because they’re giving me hope. THIS is good trouble! Who is this man? I want to shake his hand and buy him a drink.

Best Jersey ever. #Canpoli #Canada #Hockey

Ever get the feeling that we are in that flashback part of a post-apocalypse movie... Like where the characters are reflecting back on how it all started, or it's the opening sequence setting up the historical context for the whatever nightmare humanity is in?

Almost 2pm Tuesday... Gotta love living in a wind tunnel that has been placed inside of a snow globe. Note this road is a major connector between New Ross and Windsor, and for the most part likely undrivable without a rig or brand new studded snow tires.

trump: we are going to conquer canada and make it a state canadian hockey fans: fine, we will boo your anthem at games media: these two actions are exactly the same level of bad

In case you didn't know. The RCMP appears to be doing a sweep of raids on Native dispensaries across rural NS... At least 8 that I know of in the past week. Proof of the failed approach to weed legalization in NS on so many levels. Stop the NSLC weed monopoly.

During these times, service to my local community through volunteering, is the best self care I can provide myself.

America, if South Korea can storm their capital to stop a coup from taking over and installing a dictator, certainly you can do more than just literally standing around shrugging going “oh well there’s nothing we can do”, fuck sakes do you want democracy or not?

Hey #halisky how are the roads out there this morning. (Yes I am in the big city and have to drive from Cole Harbour to Downtown Halifax this morning)

A 30 day reprieve is bullshit. It just means we’ll be doing favours every 30 days or so to appease Douchebags.

Anyone who happened to know that the White House would announce and then suspend tariffs within 24 hours just made a boatload of money.

The stock market plummeting is all part of the plan. It's engineered economic collapse so his oligarchs can swoop in & buy devaluing assets dirt cheap. Anyone doubt Trump's thugs had trading/futures options placed beforehand through layers of proxy players to help rig the conditions for pay day?

You know everything is gonna be alright, when hedge funds bet AGAINST the stock market... #TrumpTax

An hour before the open and things look grim in the stock market. Trump intends this. Bet his cronies went to cash Friday.

Honestly fuck America for making me engage in any hint of nationalism because ew

Don't buy USA

American health workers looking to relocate? Doorway to practice medicine in Canada 🇨🇦 We have job openings nationwide. www.canada.ca/en/immigrati...

Call out for MEN’s winter coats. Aside from sheltering almost 200 people at The Bridge, community members are stopping by in need of winter coats. Please help if you can. Drop off anytime at 101 Wyse Road, Dartmouth.

And we all stand by watching powerlessly... It is absolutely bananas.

So what's with Melania's hat anyway. She hasn't taken it off once today...

In times of uncertainty, I write... so I figured it was a good time to start a Substack. open.substack.com/pub/aplaceto...

Perspective. The light is coming back. Winter started four weeks ago, the darkest day of the year. Spring is 60 days away. December 21 had 8:48:35 of light. Today we will have 9:20:28 of light. We gained 0:31:53 of light, over half an hour. Intervals are now two minute a day (and growing).

Thinking of all those affected by the California Wildfires. Trying to get in touch with family in LA to make sure they are alright.

We shall defend our island whatever the cost may be; we shall fight on beaches, landing grounds, in fields, in streets and on the hills. We shall never surrender.

I've had my Pixel 6 since spring 2020. Finally decided to bite the bullet and upgrade to the Pixel 9... I ordered it in Pink, because why not?

Trudeau steps down

New year, same old me.

Five femicides in four months. Three were in three weeks. Enough is enough. We are calling on the @nspc and @TimHoustonNS to act. We need to convene a meeting as soon as possible.#nspoli

This was the only time I swore during the press conference

It just occurred to me that the impending labour crisis in the US that mass deportation will create, could lead to the entrenchment of a robotic workforce in their economy... Musk is gonna become a trillionaire before 2025 is over.

Man oh man, there's a lot of shit happening right now... And I am starting to get the feeling that everything is going to converge in the US very soon. Trump's election, the drones (which I believe are surveilling in nature), the birth of a folk hero awakening a class consciousness...

All those US politicians that just exploited the hell out of the tiktok algorithm to influence Gen Z for their election campaigns are now responsible for banning it...
