What a great tune for a depressingly needless situation.
Trump has to go.

Hello folks. Jim Cuddy here. Due to our troubles with our neighbours in The States, I was inspired to write a little song. It’s called “We Used to Be the Best of Friends”. youtu.be/b5jgJZWG7aY?...

What a heart-felt farewell to a friend
priscillapage.bsky.social priscilla page @priscillapage.bsky.social · Jan 16
was mostly keeping it together until I read Kyle MacLachlan's tribute to David Lynch
"Forty-two years ago, for reasons beyond my comprehension, David Lynch plucked me out of obscurity to star in his first and last big budget movie. He clearly saw something in me that even I didn’t recognize. I owe my entire career, and life really, to his vision. What I saw in him was an enigmatic and intuitive man with a creative ocean bursting forth inside of him. He was in touch with something the rest of us wish we could get to. Our friendship blossomed on Blue Velvet and then Twin Peaks and I always found him to be the most authentically alive person I’d ever met. David was in tune with the universe and his own imagination on a level that seemed to be the best version of human. He was not interested in answers because he understood that questions are the drive that make us who we are. They are our breath. While the world has lost a remarkable artist, I’ve lost a dear friend who imagined a future for me and allowed me to travel in worlds I could never have conceived on my own. I can see him now, standing up to greet me in his backyard, with a warm smile and big hug and that Great Plains honk of a voice. We’d talk coffee, the joy of the unexpected, the beauty of the world, and laugh. His love for me and mine for him came out of the cosmic fate of two people who saw the best things about themselves in each other. I will miss him more than the limits of my language can tell and my heart can bear. My world is that much fuller because I knew him and that much emptier now that he’s gone. David, I remain forever changed, and forever your Kale. Thank you for everything."

Woke up and caught the tail end of the Australian Open tennis match between Medvedev and Tien. Unbelievable win by the qualifier.

Well said Mr Suzuki
David Suzuki: I owe much to my time in the U.S., but I came home to Canada for a reason
I have never regretted my decision to return home to Canada, and I thank you, Donald Trump, for reminding me why.

For Maths fans, 2025 is a square.
45² = 45 x 45 = 2025
Also,
9² x 5² = 2025
40² + 20² + 5² = 2025
My favourite?
1³+2³+3³+4³+5³+6³+7³+8³+9³ = 2025

Scammed by website phone number purported to be Air Canada Aeroplan. Got the number 888 924 4209 from Google search. Air travellers beware.

First, they came for the immigrants, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not an immigrant.

Are we really going to sit back and just watch this?
