Best. Mom. Ever. 😘💕

When buying Canadian, don’t forget to leave Gretzky Estates *off* the shopping list. 🙏

Ha. Guy on Threads with 32 followers said this, but let’s give him his due:

“Canadians have two moods: ‘Sorry’ and ‘You’ll be sorry.’”

Something very big is happening. The Fuck Trudeau flags are being replaced. This is in Alberta.

Had an idea for a drinking game. Suppose Mark Carney gets the nod for leader of the Liberal party, and challenges Pierre Poilievre to a debate.

Take a sip of your drink every time PeePee uses "woke" as an insult.

Finish the whole drink if he says something blatantly racist.

hey quick question does Goliath win in that story

It’s ALWAYS been a dealbreaker for me.

White women really need to do a better job of not being in relationships with men who vote for terrible politicians. It should be the base level deal breaker. Oh you don’t like basic human rights? Nope

I got up, made coffee from my local BC coffee roaster, and whipped up a batch of crispy waffles using Canadian milk, fresh eggs from a local farmer, and flour from Canadian sources. Adding Canadian maple syrup! We can do this!

MFer I grew up before NAFTA. I didn't have an avocado until I was 15 years old. I ate lunch in a Zellers cafeteria. I thought Robin Hood was just a guy who made flour.

I was made for this moment.

USAID security officials on leave after refusing access to Musk allies Billionaire and Trump ally Elon Musk has been denigrating USAID, which is the world’s largest provider of food assistance.

Breaking news: The White House has removed two top security officials at the U.S. Agency for International Development, the world’s largest provider of food assistance, after they refused to let representatives of Elon Musk access restricted spaces.

Threats aside, Vance is also just full of shit. The U.S. seized 19kg of fentanyl at the Canadian border last year, or 0.19 percent of the total fentanyl seized.

Meanwhile, in 2023, Canada seized 27,000 prohibited weapons at the border. The U.S. seized 459 weapons coming from Canada.

If American politicians are so worried about fentanyl, instead of pretending it’s coming from Canada, they should work on providing services and solutions to the opioid usage epidemic and support those at risk for fentanyl poisoning so they can avoid or eliminate it.

I don’t want to say I told you so, but Hillary certainly did. 💅🏼

Y’know both Musk and Trump have a lot of physical properties / holdings in the USA and around the world. Personal financial interests tied to places and things that are as subject to the laws of physics as anywhere /anything else.

There is no reason I’m posting this! Just an interesting fact. Hm.

In a pre-Trumpism world, this would be considered an international crime.

😂😂😂

Really? CBSA is making me pay ADDITIONAL sales tax and a handling fee for a package from an independent yarn dyer in the States, even though there’s NO duties on it. Getting hard to be able to continue supporting small businesses in North America with this kind of bullshit. 😡

That’s more realistically where I am.

I’ve kinda given up on dating. It just all sucks.

My kids were raised with that. Daily.

My youngest has it tattooed across the back of her neck.

Strengthening relationships. Repairing others.

It's all that matters.

Supposed to be my first day back to work after my dad died, but I’m not going in because the Bennett Bridge is closed with the Vancouver Bomb Squad coming to assess the van that closed things down at 4AM today. 🫠

I want to build a community of my kind of humans here on Bluesky. Compassionate, progressive, intelligent, artistic. Holler at your girl 💕
