98.3% chimpanzee. Super dad, secular humanist, progressive, teacher, SciFi fan, five one niner. May discuss #CdnPoli if provoked. Yes, we probably followed each other on Deadbird. #buycanadian #CanadaSky
Somehow my storage room swallowed up this batch of Vanilla Peach Bourbon jam from 2016 and has pushed it up now like frost pushing up a rock in a farmer's field. Good timing though, I need to make 2026 Vanilla Peach Bourbon jam and I need the jars. And a cheap Canadian bourbon alternative.
Still pining for my long lost Canadian Tire mug. Why would they stop selling this amazing product? (we were making mug cakes that day in case you're wondering what's going on there)
I like the Robert Frost reference, I do! But as a tagline it doesn't fill me with confidence. Like don't be a hero, bud, if you need to stop by the woods on a snowy evening and close your eyes for a while, you should absolutely do that.
Our Human teenager does not consent to photos, however our canine gave me her explicit consent. Then she went and barked at those geese on the water there, and came and posed by this inukshuk. The Geese and the Inukshuk were unmoved.
20-ish years ago I left instructions for cooking basmati rice for my mom at the cottage, on a battered old whiteboard from the phone company reminding us to start adding the area code. The instructions are still here.
Well, there it is in black and white in case you thought it was just a joke or a jab. The US has become the biggest threat to Canada.
Well, here's Ivanka doing science. At the time I thought she'd discovered the chemical formula for perfect stock photography, but it turns out she's been mixing up Trumptosterone using extract from her dad.
These are not different conversations, they are the same conversation with the same goal: to convince Americans that Canada is not the friendly nice guy you've been barely aware of for years, we're something more sinister. They need to turn us into something approaching Maduro or the Ayatollah
They are slowly building up the annexation case for the American people because they know they can't build it up quickly. Imaginary fentanyl, we're nasty, we're cavorting with communist China, we're unfair, the misrepresentation of MAID as a government forced-death program, now it's the wildfires.
It's not even about the wildfires, it's just a new excuse for MAGA to continue to layer on the anti-Canada rhetoric that they have been softening up their base with for a year and a half. Every complaint they cook up is accompanied by new calls for tariffs and a renewal of the 51st state threats.
I want to show this to my 15-yr-old because he's going to see the film, but then I think, oh no spoilers! But on the other hand, he's had three thousand years to read this.
Well, I found her ring. It was sitting in the dirt right in front of the deck. Good thing it wasn't an expensive ring or I'd have a lot more boards torn up!
Here's Pierre testing out his latest slogan. #CdnPoli #NeverPoilievre
The Princess in Waterloo is screening Idiocracy on the 4th of July! When this came out we didn't realize that it was a documentary from the future.
Started the year with four chromebook chargers for students to borrow, now I have one left. So I'm taking the Gas Station Toilet Key approach to keep the last one.
Welp, I finally lost Facebook Fake Wordle, 35 days short of a three year streak. I can finally delete Facebook. I am like Sisyphus unbound.
When I watch the shenanigans of the US government these days, I often think of this quote:
