Really????
34 felony counts but no consequences. AND he still qualifies to be President of the United States????

Regardless of Trump’s tariffs and threats, Canada has sent firefighters and water bombers to California to help fight the devastating wildfires. Canadians would never abandon our American friends when you need help. It a basic Canadian value. It’s who we are.

🇨🇦 Canada says thanks for the offer but…

Sorry, but that’s a hard NO.

I’m confused. A certain high profile US politician has been convicted of 34 felony counts AND the US judicial system is conflicted about sentencing him. Instead, on Jan 20 they will make him president.
How crazy is that?

Appalling behaviour today in Canada’s House of Parliament. Conservative Andrew Scheer shows contempt for the House and all Canadians by use of unparliamentary language even after Speaker asks him to withdraw such language. I call shame on the entire Conservative Party.

@bsky.app When politicians use the term 'common sense' it's code for policies that benefit their own interests. Beware! Be cautious.

The draft of a novel is like graffiti, a jumbled pile of words bouncing around in your head making no sense. Yet, you type on recording the raw messy thoughts bringing a story to conclusion. Then the real work begins - first of many edits.

Indeed. I remind myself every day that drafts are are beautiful stories waiting to take shape.

“I'm writing a first draft and reminding myself that I'm simply shoveling sand into a box so that later I can build castles.”

This was probably my most viral tweet. I've seen it pop up in a lot of quote aggregators, sometimes attributed to a wonderful but definitely not-me filmmaker.

Will post this year's pics later. Cheers.
It doesn't feel like the festive season yet. So I'm putting up my outdoor Christmas decorations. Sorry, last year's pics.

I'm a Canadian writer/author, with an opinion on what's going on in the world. And, it's not particularly good. Follows are very appreciated.

Yikes! Not one of these MEN have a clue of the struggles of low income issues. They campaigned on the issue but their primary focus is always profit. IMO, the economic conditions for most will decline even more.
They look for all the world like 4 year olds on their first outing to McDonald's

It’s not a broligarchy, it’s the devolution of democracy due to inequality. When 1% of the population has more wealth than the other 99%, there is always a significant reaction, albeit a misguided one in this case. We can wager that they will act in their own bro-interests. I’m crying for the US.
