I feel like "If you're not at the table, you're on the menu" could have been my motto all along. Damnit.

Folks in Ripples, NB usually start their chainsaws early, it’s a very quiet morning out here today. Stay safe #NB

I'm in for a mean and nasty Canadian shirt, if anyone's got them printed already. We're the tiny population who kept the u in colour, humour and neighbour even when the IT world kept telling us we were wrong with red squiggly lines, we persist. The US has no idea how stubborn we are. 🍁

ChatGPT tells me I need to ask permission before taking cuttings of an Elderberry plant I found, not from the homeowner or ditch owner, in this case, but permission is needed from the fairies. I'm inclined to follow the advice, but how will I know I got permission? #NB

I hope several Premiers gave the governor of Maine a few quick calls asking if they'd like to join us instead of fighting Trump for federal funding, I'd be pleased with the new Province of Maine, wouldn't you?

I had a lovely weekend getting perennial seeds started for my garden, but according to my socials today, I should have watched Cross Country Checkup so I could be cranky today too. #NB

I'm imagining a woman taking her toddler to an important meeting and not being destroyed for doing so. Lol, as if.

Yes, more easily snagged and at 10$ a pop. Useless Trump hose.

Good point, but no - don't even let them in the country!

I know we should have done this post-covid but if panty hose is being tariffed can we just ban them now? I'd call them Trump hose if it helps to ban them. #NB

Was in a room of folks today who have all changed any travel plans away from the US, and going to Europe or Mexico instead, if tariffs haven’t already killed the snowbirds, being a Canadian in the US may. #NB

Every woman killed since Brad Johns said domestic violence wasn’t an epidemic in Nova Scotia Ten women’s deaths in the province have been ruled as homicides since April 2024—and investigators have linked almost all to male relatives or partners.

Martin Bauman at The Coast wrote this article with the names and stories about all the Nova Scotia women killed by their partners since former justice minster Brad Johns said intimate partner violence wasn't an epidemic.

Looking for activities to do in Miramichi in March, any winter-ish activities I should check out? #NB

I saw a cybertruck in Ripples, NB this morning, maybe today will be the day we see a cybertruck vs. Canadian moose pic, seems like it would make a fitting meme for this January 2025.
