Former Prime Minister Kim Campbell has signed the pledge for Canada. She joins thousands of leaders, artists, activists, Canadians who will resist the gangster in Washington. Have you signed the pledge to stand up for our values? True.North. Strong. Free. actionnetwork.org/petitions/pl...

Word of the Day is ā€˜ingordigiousnessā€™ (18th century): extreme greed at the expense of principles.

Last Week Tonight featured a song last Sunday and I found it on YouTube Music!

So I had an important thought for something that needed to get done. A small child screamed and now I canā€™t remember what that was. That was over 10 minutes ago. šŸ™ƒ

I went to McArthurā€™s (a gardening shop) to get some seeds and two ladies were chatting away about their gardens. They ended up exchanging info and it made me so happy. Gardening is such a happy thing for so many people. I love the community.

I had to draw this last night. #tariffman

Anyone have any luck finding tomato soup thatā€™s Canadian? My favourite is Heinz but itā€™s not Canadian. Any recommendations? #buycanadian

Charlie Angus called for Canadians to sign up for the Pledge for Canada. engagement-canada-pledge.ca Iā€™ll sign up and do my best.

Suddenly, out of nowhere, a declassified World War II-era CIA guide to sabotaging fascism in the workplace has become one of the most popular free ebooks on the internet: www.404media.co/declassified...

Vaccines saved 150 million children in the last 50 years. Donā€™t believe conspiracy theories. ourworldindata.org/vaccines-chi...

At the National Prayer Service, Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde delivered a heroic, spontaneous act of rebellionā€”a sermon calling for mercy for immigrants and LGBTQ+ people. Naturally, Donold and his cult are big mad. Letā€™s break it down.

Nothing gets work done more then having less people doing the work. Shrinking the public service doesnā€™t help anything it anyone. It just means your passport will take longer.

Last time the U.S. invaded Canada, the White House ended up burned down. Donā€™t mistake politeness for passivity, you hoser.

Question: how can Caillou have like 20 seasons yet Miss Persona has only one? My kids love it, everyone is nice and I like it. Caillou, not so much.

It isnā€™t Christmas untilā€¦

It also makes it harder for them to ban books.

Getting closer to Christmas, I have an odd craving for those treats of fudge with multi coloured marshmallows. Iā€™m hoping I can find some at a local bakery. Is that only an Atlantic Canadian thing?

Well, my tomatoes in my greenhouse are officially done. It was a nice experiment. This was taken a few weeks ago when we still had snow. It got to -5C for a few days in my greenhouse. (-15C outside at night)

PSA: Donā€™t touch other peopleā€™s babiesā€™ hands. The guardian doesnā€™t know if your hands are clean and babies put their hands in their mouths. Not cool people. Itā€™s gross.

Hereā€™s a new one. CEVE as my name. I know their marketing wants them to mess up but ā€œSarahā€ and ā€œJessā€ had normal cups.

Iā€™m looking to update my website with Square Space. They sent me a 20% discount until tomorrow. Would it be prudent to wait to see if they have Black Friday or Cyber Monday deals?

Not a fan of colds. I wish I could curl up in bed but with two kids under five, not so much.

Found these gems at Dollarama today

Good morning Bluesky! I missed the sense of community and browsing around last night, Iā€™m feeling like this is what Iā€™ve been looking for in the last two years. Iā€™m looking forward to participating in this bright space in the dark šŸ˜Š
