So long, 70 year old spruce tree! Wind broken spruce tree lying on a country road
R.I.P. Baba’s tree. The wind really did you dirty today.

The Tyee is proud to have published this important investigation by @rachelgilmore.bsky.social. We condemn this egregious harassment of a journalist for doing her job, and have offered support as she deals with this disturbing situation.

For those who celebrate - happy 35th anniversary of Nirvana’s March 5, 1991 show in Edmonton! Only 50 people attended and hundreds claimed to be there, after the fact.

Zeff the black horse and Penny the palomino horse stand on snow on a very sunny and bright day
Hooray! After petting Zeff, my hand is full of black horse hair.
Penny’s shed hair isn’t as obvious as Zeff’s as I hold some of her hair in my hand.
Yippee! Thinks Penny the palomino horse. Picture captures her in a gallop, looking straight to me and her feet are off the ground. Zeff the black horse is in the background, trotting.
I am pleased to report the easy keepers have begun their spring shed!

Nation returns to Heated Rivalry to watch Canadians get fucked in a good way
A lot of permanent locations to sign the petition!
Unfortunately, things didn't work out in the home we found for Kilee. He's not a good fit for them and their cat. He needs a home without other pets.
Once again, I am looking for a new home for him.
Vet says he's in great shape. Loves people, house trained, doesn't bark or chew.
See my previous posts. I am again looking for a temporary place for Kilee, a lovable dog. He doesn't bark, doesn't chew, and is house-trained. He reacts aggressively towards other dogs and isn't ideal for cats. The owner is homeless after the two fled an abusive house. Anybody? #yeg
I don't believe for a second that they were in the dark about Epstein's abuse. There are emails where Noam is trying to help Epstein rehabilitate his image, ffs!
You don't build up a reputation for yourself as a brilliant intellect and then miss the most overt sex trafficking ring in modern history
NEW from me today:
Tumbler Ridge is mourning a horrific loss. But how the shooter's identity is being talked about online, and the dangerous links being made to trans people at large, will have resounding and dangerous impacts in the months and weeks to come.

30 years ago this week, I started writing this song—Shoes of a Man. Inspired by my grandfather's life, it has been a mainstay over the years, and folks still tell me that it is a meaningful song for them.
Here is my latest. Sylvain Charlebois, Canada's beloved commentator on the food industry, thinks that not giving us access to raw milk is communism.

Anytime! Looking forward to this release!☺️☺️
Teacher convention!
The federal government is closing seven of its farm research centres, where scientists develop resilient crop varieties and test new agricultural practices. Farmers worry the cutbacks could threaten their competitiveness, as drought and other climate pressures mount. thenarwhal.ca/canada-agric...
I’m really, really tired of people needing to find out for themselves why we needed public health advances in the first place. Read a book
I hate this song so much (and unfortunately now have bit as an earworm 😂😂). At a music festival a few years ago, a singer/songwriter played this song at every workshop they were part of- EVERY FREAKING TIME!
I approve this message
I mean…no shit.
But it’s always good to have data. Not that men will believe us when we quote it.
May the Epstein files remind every woman that she should not feel beholden to beauty standards established by men who are attracted to children.
Penny the palomino quarter horse tries to sniff Kitty Cat, the ginger cat while the two are in the horse shelter
Penny the horse cant keep her eyes off her potential new friend Kitty Cat as he walks along the horse shelter wall
Little did Kitty Cat know that Penny is a friend to all the creatures on the farm.

Second-Hand Peace Prize is the name of my Milli Vanilli cover band.
To see a news agency adding positions for journalists, especially local reporters, seems like something out of the deep past.
Uncanny. But I like it.
I teach bystander intervention for a living and have taught de-escalation to law enforcement.
Trust me when I say that bottle girls, gas station clerks, strippers, front desk employees at hotels and airports, baristas, etc. have better de-escalation skills than any cop I've ever seen.
