RFK: "There's five hundred million Arabs in the world. And yet they don't produce science. They don't win the Nobel Prize. They don't win the Fields Prize. They don't win the Wolf Prize. They don't produce literature."

Some lady here is absolutely incensed that she is being made to board with zone 2 when she believes she should be entitled to board with zone 1 and I cannot fathom this wasted energy. Just chill out ma’am. I bet I could make her more mad if I said that.

They have redeemed themselves with the toasty pistachio croissant, but I must deduct a few marks because it is impossible to eat in a ladylike fashion.

Ooo. The Air Canada cafe here has available tables AND chicken shawarma wraps. Idk this wrap could be terrible. But it was free and there’s somewhere to eat it.

I said I’d keep my FB account as long as my grandma is using hers and thank goodness because under my kid’s 15th birthday pic, her sister and all her friends commented “unc” and now my 93yo grandma has asked them what that means.

Oh yay, time to go look for all the crying seppies on various social media channels. The meltdown is gonna be amazing to behold.

You know, if I killed a baby because I was shooting at an alleged shoplifter, I would put myself in prison. Throw away the key.

Oh, the other inmates might be mean to me? Good. Fucking kick my baby-killing ass. Just don’t kill me because I don’t deserve that freedom in this scenario. KILLING A BABY FOR THE SAKE OF SOME STUFF WHAT ON EARTH

I get a lot of election disappointment living around here, but I’m pretty happy with the school board results. All the anti-SOGI assholes were shut out. I kind of wonder if it’s more like-minded people that bother to vote in that one.

Sorry, the birth of Alberta is fucked because I ate a muffin at 9:05 Alberta time.

lol wtf? 5400 sq ft as a retired old man?

“I’m old. I’ve paid my home off,” said Ray Warner, a 72-year-old Akron resident. “Why would I pay property tax?” Across the country, homeowners are asking the same question and revolting against property taxes at a scale not seen in a half century.

politico.comDo You Really Own Your Home? A Tax Revolt Says No.The argument that property taxes make Americans renters in their own houses has fueled the biggest anti-tax uprising in half a century, and local governments are scrambling.

I mean obviously it’s not A. That would be weird. Ooo. Ooo. Guy who thinks it’s called 9/11 for the 911 lives lost.

Canadian average has plummeted since my husband gave up his out-of-town beers. But omg 74 drinks a week? Holy shit.

If you're not familiar with the alcohol consumption by decile chart, it's a real eye opening look at what being a hardcore alcoholic is like

Clueless AF.

Sen. Adam Schiff@schiff.senate.gov

My first stop was Alberta, the only province not boycotting Californian wines. I spoke to provincial leaders about the importance of the Canadian market to California farmers and the importance of continuing close collaboration on dairy, beef and energy trade.

This is the funniest bit because if it was true that Canadians just quit drinking because of the loss of Californian wine (lol), that would actually be a net positive in government spending. We lose money on alcohol consumption.

Sen. Adam Schiff@schiff.senate.gov

Without American wine on Canadian shelves, Canadians are also missing out on tens of millions of dollars in tax revenue they would obtain from selling our wine.

Sitting here scrubbing my cabinets, listening to Rush and thinking about that one Twinja who told me I was fat because I bake a lot. She also told me once that Neil Peart was not a good drummer. I should have blocked her for that and avoided the baking comment altogether.

Anyways, look at these pies I made. And I ate them. And I still weigh 50lbs less than when I was on the bad meds. You can eat pie. Pie is good.

Listen, I don’t care if you aren’t a fan of the music. How you gonna sit there and tell me The Professor can’t drum. Fuck off. Oh, your dad was a drummer? Bitch, I’ve never heard of him.

This is actually funny because my aunt just sent B a copy of a colouring book that she made with other artists in her area. They drew the pictures with their hands, from their own imagination. Anyways, I guess I’ll block him now. What a loser.

You all need to see my grandparents. 93 and 94 years old. Just chilling on the dock by the lake for Thanksgiving. Please tell me my DNA is full of whatever the fuck this is.
