Someone want to tell him that's not how to lead in a free democracy?

Oh wait, he's turning the US into a fascist dictatorship. My bad.

It's devastating to watch this happen in real time.

Where's the files?

1/ I made the mistake of going down a rabbit hole. It's started on Reddit with a post about @wyden.senate.gov calling out the Epstein money trail. Which somehow led to Facebook. Which led to the comment in this image.

I'm so tired I just screenshot my FB post and copied the text for the alt instead of trying to shorten it for Bluesky 🥱

Oof, it's been a rough 24 hours. Storm has been crying/whining all day and I got about 2 hours 😴 taking care of her. She's finally starting to doze more so I'll be setting up a nest next to the crate tonight and hope for a little more 💤 #husky #dogsofbluesky #dog #surgery #alberta #canada

My girl Storm had TPLO surgery today and now has a plucked chicken leg and temporary rat tail, and is super f'ed up on anesthesia and fentanyl.

My girl, Storm, needs TPLO surgery, she tore her CCL and her knee wobbles like mine did with the complete MCL repair. Probably be in 2-3 weeks to let inflammation go down, assuming we can afford it 🤦🏽‍♀️

I ordered a cold therapy machine for my knee and it came today, only 2 days from BC (I love that UPS will deliver to our very rural farm, it didn't used to be that way!) and I am In Love. So much more coverage and consistent cold than an ice pack. Can't wait to be healed!

Well that sucked. It just fell, no cats involved. I'd been planning on propagating it to clean up the mess it had become, so I guess it threw itself on the floor to make it happen faster 🤷‍♀️

I thought I'd killed the tomatoes and cabbage by using too much fertilizer (first time trying it) but a few thorough flushes and they're mostly happy again. The cats have decided that celery is the next best thing to catnip and will not leave it alone 😂 #vegetablegarden #gardening #gardening #zone3

I don't post much anymore because 90% of my time is spent dealing with stuff like this 😂

Roscoe (puppy) has been so good for Storm (husky), she hasn't destroyed any toys or gone on "walkabouts" in 2 months ❤️

This one and the big bird with Darth Vader are the best ones.

Alberta politics are some of the stupidest on the planet but Alberta skies are some of the best. It's a mixed bag to live here if you don't drink kool-aid.

Tried a new cinnamon roll recipe. Absolutely love the ridiculously soft dough and overall flavour, but the next batch will get about 50% less sugar. Instant headache and likely 3 cavities lol

Got a fresh 8+" of snow and it was -20c last night but the willows really want it to be spring.

Today's growth photo update. The onions (with fresh haircut) are getting nice thick stalks, I think they might just make it to the ground this year. Need to remember to water more often though lol!

Merry Christmas!

...wait. Happy Spring!

...still not right.

Ah well, the dogs love it.

Approx 6" new.

The dogs love the return of winter, but no one is happier than myself, not needing to clean mud off everything.

Canadian natives get, sadly, far more respect than US natives. No one would benefit from Canada losing its sovereignty, but ma y would suffer greatly for it.

It's a good thing Roscoe is freakin' adorable and generally well behaved, because my baseboards are taking a beating 🦈

Once he's done teething/training, we'll do some repairs 😂

Early morning lab work (fasting labs suuuuuuuuck) delayed the dog's walk this morning. Thankfully the ground was still frozen 🧊
