Happily living in the woods in #TweedOntario. Love dogs, trees and woodland creatures. Semi-retired now from my careers as a freelance editor and dog walker. Politically left, I support Liberals federally and Marit Stiles in Ontario.

New followers, if everyone else you are following is an older woman like me, I will block you as a suspected catfisher.

No loss for you if you're looking for love. I am not.

“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back to a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”

IT SAVES PUBLIC MONEY to house people.
Finland ends homelessness and provides shelter for all in need - scoop.me
In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Why? The country applies the "Housing First" concept agains homelessness.

I'm having an odd experience. Sunday morning, going to watch a movie, maybe finish the joint I started last night. The movie is The Benefactor. Cheryl Hines appears. My first thought, I can't watch this liar.

At every single stage of my life there has been a movie or show suited for my age group in which Catherine O’Hara was a standout player. This just sucks, man.

For #WIPwednesday, here are my current on-the-go socks. My custom vanilla sock pattern in Twin Sock from Timber Yarns. I bought the yarn at Tracy's Rolling Yarn shop, a yarn truck that travels around Cape Breton island.

Corn tortilla. Broccoli. Chicken. And one other thing. Maybe a carrot! Maybe a bit of cheese! We assumed that it had to be food. That was our mistake, I think. Assuming that the One Other Thing had to be food.
The ‘One Other Thing’ That Comes With Every Trump-Era Dinner
The Agriculture secretary suggests one corn tortilla, one piece of broccoli, one piece of chicken, and one inscrutable last thing.

Whatever is in the Epstein Files is so explosive that the leaders of the Department of Justice are openly breaking the law every day to keep us from seeing it. (Just a reminder amongst all the other stuff flying around.)

punishment is a curious concept

I actually think punishment serves no moral purpose but instead a purely emotional one
we punish evil after the fact not to make the world a better place but to calm the distress of victims, their 'vengeance'

what other purpose does the suffering of the evil hold?
