Seeking skies of blue here, with fellow humans. I follow those who are empathetic. Former TV reporter, prof, media relations presenter, politically active for peace. 🎸⛳️😎🥾
Winston Churchill once defined diplomacy as telling the other person to go to hell, in such a way that they look forward to the trip. That was Prime Minister Carney.

Pretty much every Canadian knows that. I keep imagining what it must have been like when Burton got a phone call saying that Lenny Kravitz was going to release his version of the song. The royalties must have been huge.

Where were the other reporters who should have stood up for Nancy? When is this finally going to happen? The others are worried they will lose their jobs and cushy salaries. What they may not realize, is the one shouts at Trump in defence of dignity, may get fired, but will have job offers galore.

He wants their bust size to match his IQ.

Lying and cheating is the only way they know how to deal with this world.

Just on my walk this morning in Victoria, BC and I was thinking how much I like cormorants. They're ubiquitous...I have seen them in the tropics and in colder climates. They're awkward, yet graceful at the same time.

It's called the dark period. But keep the faith. February they'll start to report for spring training.

I've been saying this for some time. This man has a bright future in politics. He's definitely Senate material. Can you imagine him representing Texas, instead of the unctuous, slimy Ted Cruz?

I think he meant lazy focused.

The best description I heard was that weed didn't really stop me from doing the things I needed to do, but the things I didn't need to do were a lot more fun.

oh please. .333 batting average, versus .247.

You know Trump will threaten, cajole, and reward reps for changing their mind.
November 12, 2025 at 9:21 PM
💯

Not if Trump and his sick-o-fants have their way. Putting a lot of pressure on the reps.

The proliferation of online gambling is a curse. Look for lots more of these stories coming out.

I’m not assuming. He has attended pro Hamas rallies. He accepts “globalize the intifada”, he doesn’t believe Hamas should give up their weapons, he has met and expressed friendship for radical Muslim leaders who want to destroy Israel and Jews. Good luck to New York. We shall see how he does.

There was no genocide, not even close. No armed forces have ever had a lower combatant to civilian death ratio. This in spite of the vile Hamas using civilians as shields.
November 7, 2025 at 4:17 PM
Yes. They did. We’ll see if they regret it. I hope I’m wrong. But if anti-Jewish rallies were tolerated before, they will be celebrated soon.

Or, very likely from Acme. Are you sucked in roadrunner?

And for President Biden, this was a Vice President from the opposing party. He is such an excellent person, polished to a fine, compassionate point by a parade of life's tragedies that would break many men. My American friends...you were so lucky to have him.

There is winning, and there is administrating. Let's see how this plays out.
November 5, 2025 at 11:36 PM
Seriously? I hate Trump and everything he stands for. But I have eyes and ears. We’ll just have to see how it all goes down.

Many women have been taken in by a charming, smiling sociopath. They soon learn what the person is really like. Good luck New York.
