I'm a consultant (business strategy) and a real estate agent somewhere, but in this place it's my unwork life...reading, writing, books, kindness, cooking, knitting, food, grandkids, walking, and loving a peaceful life.

A big part of the authoritarian playbook is war. War takes over the news. War blots out criticism. War divides a nation’s people, subjecting those against it to being called unpatriotic. War grants leaders all sorts of emergency powers. War consumes everything else.

We mustn’t let this war do so.

I am swinging by from time to time. I miss the good people. But I have my grand-girls for a week, starting this weekend, so you won't see much of me.

Today I’m proposing a ban on assault rifles, high-capacity magazines, binary triggers, firearms without serial numbers, and more.

Reminder: Tariffs aren't paid by other countries.

They're eventually paid by us at the check out line.

And they're regressive β€” taking a higher percentage out of the paychecks of working people than out of the wealthy.

We love Canadian Tire. In Nova Scotia at least there is usually an Electrify Canada in the parking lot to charge your EV and always a clean restroom and they allow dogs in the store. And they seem to have almost anything you need.

This means he's got someone to blame if it doesn't work out, right, @nickhalo.bsky.social, "chair consultant"?

It’s a morning for the WH to hide the ketchup bottles:

Bad GDP numbers.

Not great inflation numbers.

Tariffs overturned by SCOTUS.

@knitswithcats.bsky.social I had a prescription like that. Was told surgery wasn't possible but had a consult with one of the top surgeons and he said I just needed a different kind of surgery. This was almost 15 years ago, and now I just need readers for books and close work.

More helpful insights for us all. Shouldn't this be easy enough to understand? So why are there so many people who look like me, who just don't get it? πŸ‘‡πŸ»
