Dear Mr. Singh, On the fundamentals in this morning's press conference, I agree - the Liberals have been from inadequate to awful on a lot of fronts. But being obstinate and inflexible in the attempt to look resolute and committed makes our party look like we don't have the ability to flex our political muscle when push will come to shove. To demonstrate such a basic lack of grace also dooms us to be eternally cast as surly, unserious pretenders. You state there was nothing left to gain from the Liberals in Parliament, but that isn't strictly true - we have a nearly exhaustive list of priorities you failed to even mention once during your screed and follow-up questions that still need to be addressed for all Canadians, and how some of our initiatives should have been expanded upon so that more Canadians could get the help or breathing room they need for the challenges they are currently facing and that are staring us down in the near future. You had a platform as the first leader to respond to Trudeau's situation: a new Liberal leader and a short political leash would have been possible once the HoC returned. You could have kept our powder dry and keep things open without needing to coddle or jump in bed with anyone. "We'll wait and see if the new leader and the priorities they bring will be in the best interests of Canadians before we decide in their fate" was all you needed to answer to those journalists. Instead you opted to be a broken record, and you pissed away our political capital for free, and just made Pierre Poilièvre and the Conservatives' job a whole lot easier, whilst coming off as a junior member wanting to shoulder in to the grownup's table. What for? How is this going to help us, or even Canadians at this point? How is this even going to get us in official opposition (which seems to be your ultimate goal - think small people!!!) if all we do is point fingers like Poilièvre? Do you honestly think that's why the Tories are polling so high?…

We need people of good internal fortitude in our halls of democracy, as the gates are battered and breached, compatriots compromised and swept into the chase for rage harvesting. You are a warrior that has fought in many capacities and for a long time, with all the resolve, confidence and humility that such experiences bestow. As tired, weary and sick as you may be for having fought these long thankless battles, as those promised years await, even with a clear, earned conscience, must you step away?

Yeah, it's lazy and done to death. So is getting drunk and yelling at clouds, wondering why you're such a sore winner...
Just another satisfying anti-Elon Musk meme that lays out the truth about his claim his autism is the cause for his behaviour.

Just something I wrote. Sorry, no Alt-Text for these, because it's wordy. Also had to break it up in different posts.

Local rabbit apprehensive about everything all the time.
Climate change makes us white tailed jackrabbits very afraid, because the ground is brown, and we are not... Think of the bunnies... The soft and harmless bunnies...
