Oh, military gentlemen, they bluster, roar and pray.
Nine sailors on the Nancy, boys, made fifty run away.
The powder in their hair that day was powder sent their way
By poor and ragged sailor men, who swore that they would stay.

Sometimes, if you have an older dog, you'll be halfway through morning walk on a warm fall day and they will decide they want to flop down on a random bit of sidewalk or grass and bliss out for awhile.

If you possibly can, you should sit down on the grass and pet them for awhile.

Good. It's not a good thing to complicit in piracy and murder and I'd hate to see British people prosecuted for such things.

Remember 25 years ago when a photo was taken of a fed pointing a gun at a crying refugee child and the image was so shameful it dominated the news cycle for a year

Hey, a lot of people are talking about changing affiliation from Democratic to Independent.

Let me tell you why you shouldn’t do that in Colorado.

One of the main ways to get a primary challenge candidate on a ballot is to caucus for your party. You need to be registered as a Dem to caucus.

This is what I want to start emphazising more to our "leaders" in the United States Congress.

These people think they have a hard time now? Wait till people start putting basic facts together and realize what an obscenely gigantic role they are playing in protecting insurrectionists.
And I will add, the longer they continue this stupid game, the more and more criminal exposure they have to providing aid/comfort to insurrectionists, an extremely serious charge.

Iconic of the folks at CAHN at they, with far fewer resources, identified 18 people who were at this neo-Nazi event in B.C. -- while CBC, with more staff and far more resources, unmasked two.

CAHN really are the GOATs at this work.
3/ We got photos of all of them and got to work finding their names. CBC verified our identifications and added two. By bringing in the CBC, we were able to reach a much larger audience to talk about the threat of white nationalism in Canada.

Saw a news report yesterday about children as young as 9 being given weight loss jabs on the NHS, and I think it shows just how utterly bullshit the “lack of research into long term impacts” excuse for banning puberty blockers for trans kids really was. It’s purely ideological.

They are forcibly de-transitioning trans children/adolescents. Those most severely impacted are aged 11-15. The risk to this group is very high, and NHS England/NHS Sussex know this. They don't care at all about the safety or well-being of trans under 18s.
NHS Sussex are forcibly detransitioning trans people. These patients need full restoration of their healthcare, and everyone involved in doing this needs to be sacked.
"Laura fears all will be lost if ICB Sussex forces her child off the medication.

If ICB Sussex get their own way in a matter of weeks and they force detransition, Olive may well take her life."

Hundreds gathered for Mass on Nov 1 outside the Broadview ICE facility in solidarity with those detained. As it took place, buses left carrying people likely to the airport. Clergy with CSPL followed all protocols to bring communion inside but were denied entry.

My friend is nonbinary and had to get a breast reduction because their GP was worried about their spine, and now they have to get a hysterectomy because they've got endometriosis, and I can't believe a person can be so biologically transgender that the NHS accidentally insists on transitioning them.

If you’re wondering what a “least weasel” is, they absolutely live up to the name. This is the least amount of animal you can have that can still meet the bar for “is weasel”

Talked about the prospect of another pipeline and Carney's recent comments on my Monday political panel.

As I said, the biggest impediment isn't regulations or even Indigenous opposition but the lack of a viable business case.
