Just checked: Colgate tooth powder is still available. I got these from a local refillery. I'm not a dentist or dental hygienest, but other than wanting fluoride or hydroxyapatite (as is with these tablets), I would think just a toothbrush + floss are sufficient. We just want a minty aftertaste.

I’ve been comparing the polls to passing the puck back and forth in front of the hockey net. A Liberal win counts only when we all vote and put that puck most definitvely to the back of the net.

Yay for gardening pants! My gardening jeans need some TLC before the growing season really ramps up, though. The denim's worn thin in more places. Started hardening off my seedlings today.

What I appreciate most is that the Canadian grassroots responses align with the direction of provincial, territorial, and federal govts. These are intuitively unified efforts.

It’s not that such people don’t understand it; it’s just how bullies think, talk, and act. “I get to push you around, but how dare you stand up to me?”

There’s really nothing to do out there during the winter anyway. Still chilly, but the sun felt great. Started your seeds yet?

I just hope that in an effort to facilitate the U.S.’s brain drain, especially in the medical field, that we review and verify considered candidates for their past, current, and future support of vaccinations and PPE for airborne diseases?

Anyway, that was an approach I tried. I hope someone recommends completely distracting stuff for you.

I chose art for the images - colours, textures, shapes, forms. Using different brain pathways to rest the ones overcome through work. I’m in comms, so I can tire of words.

Ah. So you’re looking for a lighter content (still in the reading realm?). While I may not have specific titles to recommend, I borrowed a huge pile of artsy library books – anything that provided fresh images + ideas that was unfamiliar - when I felt overwhemed recently. Different brain fodder. 🤞

I'm in the middle of reading it! I'm ok with it being so timely... am not interested in "getting back to normal" or complacency when real life needs us.

Also, they tasted awful the last time I bought some a couple of months ago. Shortlived, wimpy chocolate flavour and bland filling. It was all about crunch and sweetness. Low on flavour. Not worth buying anymore even without tariffs.
