Diplomacy. Itās a thing we Canadians do.
š§¶šØš¦šØš¦ Canadian Senior Feisty Lady. No DMs. I follow politics because so many people didnāt/donāt. Hate to say I told you so, BUT I TOLD YOU SO. What happens when we donāt listen to politics and donāt watch the News because itās too depressing? Trumpš¤¬

Diplomacy. Itās a thing we Canadians do.
My guess is Escapism.
After my sister passedā¦When her daughter was walking down the aisle at her outdoor wedding, a yellow butterfly hovered over her head and followed her to the altar. ā¤ļø
Seriouslyā¦Do we want to live in a world where some people can amass so much wealth and power, that they can do as they please, hurt who they please, and never have to be held accountable? Itās time to yank the rug out from under their gilded asses. Do NOT let them get away with abusing little girls.
Weāre quickly reaching the ācrazy acts of pure desperationā stage. The orange buffoon is absolutely terrified.
This!
I will never understand why people will insist on pressuring a loved one to stay alive, in spite of the loved oneās horrible suffering. It is a personal choice, not a family vote. My niece recently opted to end her suffering from ALS. MAiD is a compassionate personal choice.

@justinwolfers.bsky.social: "Tariffs are paid by everyone. They're a sales tax, effectively. That means we've shifted taxes from the rich to the working and middle class."
100% agree - I would say most donāt know which branch of government is responsible for what! Media and Politician need to communicate this more - see below
Thatās the spirit!
America descending into the pits of hell. Canada: āWeāre playing the long game. More popcorn?ā šæšØš¦ā #CanadaStrong #ElbowsUp #BoycottUSA
N-a-s-t-y!!!
Love the voiceā¦love the song.
Everyone waiting for the big announcement today at 2? Not me. Iāll no doubt read all about it later, when the dust settles. The only thing I want to hear is that heās turning himself in for treason, and heās dissolving the Repugnant Partyā¦
Thatās funny. I got suspended from Twitter when I said that I hoped he would choke on a Big Mac, and his last words would be āI canāt breatheā¦ā
Nahā¦I want him dead. In prison, he would be seen as a martyr by his brain dead followers. āJournalistsā will be lining up to interview him behind bars. Dead. Let him rot in the ground, people lining up to piss on his grave. We never hear his voice again.
Maybeā¦and just hear me outā¦Donnie Willtedskin was advised that, the only way he can escape having to answer for being a disgusting pedophile, is if heās dead. One can only hope.
Had a moment of sheer panic last night. I thought my kitty Fred had melted. Heās okay. I guess he was in relax mode watching baseball.
What an idjitā¦You can still buy Alpha Male white bread for the boys who live in momās basement. Obviously mom doesnāt take him to the grocery store anymore, ever since he loaded up the cart with Lucky Charms and PopTartsā¦
Will he be lying in State? Open casket? Can we get a look at the historic cankles? The best canklesā¦No one has ever had better cankles.
The stony stareā¦ The withering lookā¦ Itās been rumoured that it has the power to bring Alpha men to tears.
Iām going to be harsh and suggest that itās time to sit Hoffman out for the near future. I could be wrong but didnāt he lose us 3 games out of 4 or 5? Weāre nearing the end of the season. It would be a shame to see the standings drop way down now.
HERE IS ANOTHER EXCERPT FROM THE POST THAT PEOPLE ARE LITERALLY LOSING THEIR MINDS OVER BECAUSE OF HOW BRILLIANT A WRITER JEFF TIEDRICH (ME!) IS. MANY PEOPLE ARE SAYING "SIR! SIR! HOW DO YOU PUT ALL THE WORDS IN THE RIGHT ORDER? SIR!" READ MY POST AND FIND OUT, THANK YOU: bit.ly/4lVkU0h
No such thing as owning movies when I was a kid. All we had to look forward to was reruns of Gunsmoke in the summer months.
Mine is on Monday, the 1st. Letās agree to use our birthday wish wisely, if he isnāt gone by then.
September 1st is Autumn. I will not argue this point. Let the decorating begin!
guys please please don't jinx this
Is heā¦? Has IT happened yet? Nowā¦? How about NOWā¦? IS HE DEAD YET??
Honestly love that the vibe here on a late Friday night going into the last weekend of summer is āgosh I really hope heās dead, weāre gonna throw one hell of a partyā
Scrolling on a Friday night, feeling down about all thatās going wrongā¦and then this beautiful music appears in my newsfeed. Thank you for sharing this masterpiece ā¤ļø
When I first read this, I thought it was a joke. I mean, how stupid do you have to beā¦?
šŖ¬š§æ There is no amount of money, oil, or gold in the world that is worth more than having bees, trees, and clean water.
I suspect that a few books are being banned because they have too many big words for Daniās teeny weeny brain. š¤Æ
Pay attention, Canada. If Alberta is successful in this book banning, this will spread. Look around you, b/c this is how it starts. We're on the same ledge the US was on. And we either start fighting this right-wing rise now, or we follow the Americans over the edge. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...
Trump's acting like a dictator runnin' outta time. Why do you reckon that is?
It's really not that complicated. Listen to Dick.
If America was really going to be a dictatorship did it have to be this dick?
Imagine thinking your "personal freedoms" are worth more than a child's life. Imagine fighting for emotionally unstable 20 something male civilians to have easy access to weapons designed to kill lots of ppl, really fast. Imagine enabling the next mass shooter, while calling yourself "Christian"
Iām pretty sure that my kitty, Fred, melted last night. Heās such a lovable goofball.
Let's just forget about the ignorant PoS you installed as your God-King & the way you've treated us for a moment, why would Canadians buy American booze when there are better and cheaper alternatives? Get more Americans to buy your sh*t & support you! You know, "America First" & all that Bullsh*t.
Sooner or later, the fight will move into the streets. Peaceful protests donāt cut it.
Wow! I canāt imagine how I would cope if I didnāt feed my kitty on time. He even wakes me up in the middle of the night, for a handful of treats. Stay safe.
Now that theyāre armed, wouldnāt it be more dignified to just storm the White House and make America great again?
I thought weād beefed up the bullpen. So disappointing tonight.
I have to go with September 1stā¦my birthday. That would be the best gift ever.
ššš
Ewww! For Godās sake, donāt pick it.
was just told by a doctor that I need to "limit and reduce stress" in my life but then he refused to put me in a medically induced coma -- pick a side, man
āPsyche!ā
It was 211 years ago this week that the then Canada burned the White House down and I have to admit I think a repeat is not such a bad idea . #Uspoli #Cdnpoli #Fascism #Occupation #Oppression nationalpost.com/news/canada/...

Unbelievably cruel. I feel so bad for all of the people who are having to relive past trauma. Itās not enough to keep saying that the ācruelty is the point.ā While itās true, it doesnāt stop the monsters who gleefully go along with the evil. Itās time to get rid of them, any way you can.
Happy Birthday and enjoy the cake. My birthday is in a week and Iām starting early. Chocolate cake tonight and then Angel Food for the rest of the week. But then again, Iām going to be 71, so Iām trying to fill my cake quota. ššš
Or the ones who say that theyāre afraid of losing their democracy. Hello? That ship has sailed.
I suspect he is mere days away from his final destinationā¦
I suspect that theyāre going to continue writing/calling their Congressmen/Women, voicing their outrage and indignation. And maybe wonder when someone is going to come and fix their completely broken country.
Is that Rotting Pile of Rancid, Decomposing Waste of Space still sitting in the White House or did he finally make people, the world over, find a reason to rejoice? In other words, is he dead yet?
So right now, Theyāre building detention facilities across the United States Theyāre sending armed soldiers across the United States At what point will people have had enough? Itās already *almost* too late
Happy National Waffle Day! #Otd August 24 1869, Cornelius Swartwout patented a stovetop version of the traditional grid waffle maker. š§¶Knit your love of waffles with free waffle toy & waffle stitch knitting patterns like these from my post intheloopknitting.com/waffle-stitc...
I donāt think heāll make it to 2026. My birthday is on the 1st of September. Any guesses about what I will wish for, when I blow out the candles?
ššššššš
This is the BEST suggestion!
As a Canadian, I hope we take this seriously. I canāt imagine facing the prospect of raising children under the Trump Regime.
They donāt make chairs like they used to.
Child Trafficker Trump is like a cross between Paul Blart Mall Cop and Jared the Pedophile from Subway Sandwiches but heās also super super old and stupid. Sad!!! #EpsteinFiles
What a sad topic of conversation. Worrying about kids surreptitiously using their cell phones in class, while seeming to adapt to the possibility that they might need to say a final goodbye or call for help. School shootings are primarily an American thing. Change the gun laws!
Dimwitted and demented.
Watching from Canada. Please donāt sit back and watch from your window. At the very least, try to document it on your phone from a safe distance. Itās going to get a lot worse very soon. Itās time to decide how hard youāre willing to fight for democracy and future generations.
Makes sense to me. If I was living in the United States, I would be trying to get out. Thankfully I live in O Canada šØš¦
Hello? Luigiā¦?
If I ever encountered an intruder in my home,and I got the upper hand, I would have to be forcibly removed from ādefendingā myself. Weāre being asked to restrain ourselves against someone who broke in and meant to harm us? Pffft!
I read somewhere, if marriage benefited women, it would have been taken away from us by now.
Oh my gawdā¦ššš

One of the main reasons for striking is leverage. The government should stay out of negotiations unless, and until, it threatens the safety and security of the public. I am so proud that the workers held their ground. I hope others follow their lead.
People like Miller have no idea what itās like to be a parent, grandparent, or an intelligent human being. Age? When we see the world that we love being trashed, ruled by greedy, evil people, our love for our fellow humans and our children will not be diminished by age. We will always stand up.
āWhen Canadians back Air Canadaās flight attendants, theyāre not just supporting one group of workers. Theyāre voting, in spirit, for the kind of workplace standards they want for all of us.ā lenispooner.substack.com/p/when-union...
What do you think? These are very new, a little pop of art to wear with a matching outfit, or to add something unique to your existing garments Here are a few of the designs, the link will take you to the accessories collection for more #MadeInCanada of course! www.legaleriste.com/en/cwc.art.a...
Exactly. How many peaceful protests have there been now? 20? 30? How many more of these do you need before you guys understand theyāre not enough?
This is the behaviour of a needy child. Whenever a visitor comes to the house, he latches onto them and starts playing the ālook at me and my stuffā game.
And todayās movie will be The Fascinating History of Cement.
During the election in Ontario, I managed to sway 3 former Ford supporters to vote Liberal. My small part, but weāre heavily loaded with people who vote the same way their parents didā¦no matter what. The same people refuse to follow the news because itās ātoo depressing.ā
Can't really argue with the King.....
For once, it feels like the fight isnāt one-sided. For once, it feels like someone on our side finally stopped polishing the participation trophy while the other side is busy smashing the trophy case with a sledgehammer. open.substack.com/pub/jojofrom...
