Having the stat on a Tuesday is kind of whack. Going to enjoy it anyway - but I feel like we had a long weekend taken away from us.

Undocumented immigrants pay almost $100 billion in taxes each year.
The top 1% evade $163 billion in taxes each year.
Stop pretending that immigrants are the ones taking advantage of taxpayers.

China drops canola tariff. Canada drops tariff on Chinese EVs. Production of Chinese EVs launches in Canada.
Mark Carney should absolutely speak to the US and Trump to see where they stand and what kind of relationship might be possible with them.
But he should also drop the bullshit about China being our greatest threat and be more pragmatic about diplomacy and trade in a multipolar world.

China is offering to form a greater partnership with Canada in the face of US aggression, noting they’re the two countries that have responded most strongly to US tariffs.
Canada should see what China is offering, and speak to AU and NZ about how best to work with China.

You wake up every day to some fresh chaos. It's always been like this - but Trump is an accelerator.

A lot of right wing bro content like Joe Rogan is about to face an existential crisis.
They like to be the outsiders pushing back against the bad guys. What happens when they win? When their voice becomes the mainstream narrative?
New, fresh, dissenting voices take over.
You can be that voice.

What makes this Napoleon quote more ominous is that it was also used in 2011 by Anders Breivik after murdering 69 children in Norway.
Breivik fought against multiculturalism, hated what he called "Cultural Marxism" and called for mass deportations.
In the United States, it looks like Breivik won.

Everything feels like it is spiralling out of control. It is so important to:
1. Stop
2. Inhale/Exhale
3. Notice the quiet—no need to fill it
4. Let the stillness hold you, even for just a few seconds
5. Carry it with you as you move on with your day
Stillness is always here, waiting.

Pax Americana is over. They are an empire in decline and the sooner Canada acknowledges that and starts moving forward with new trade partnerships the better.
Trump is following an old Chinese proverb: “Kill the chicken to scare the monkeys.”

Meditation of the Day:
Close your eyes. Feel your body. Start at the top of your head—notice warmth, tension, or tingling. Slowly move your awareness down, pausing when sensations arise.
Notice how sensations shift and fade. Do that for 2-3 min.
