Among the plethora of other topics on which Trump is an ignoramus? Geography…of his own country.
So Canada and Greenland are at risk from an enemy invasion; he alludes to Russia and China. I know, it is sad how badly the education system failed him or was it, simply, that he is just too stupid to teach? I tend to believe it is the latter of the two.
You see, the country most at risk for this invasion propaganda is, actually, the United States. They are 2.4 miles from Russia via Alaska. Greenland is 3,117 miles. Canada? 4,143 miles.
And China? From Greenland, 4,843 miles; Canada is 5,847 miles, BUT the United States? From the Aleutian Islands (Alaska) – specifically Attu? 1703 miles to China.
So geographically, the U.S. is at bigger risk than Canada or Greenland.
Sit down, Yam-T*ts; your Golden Dome is a joke and about as legitimate as your Trump Phone, Trump University, Trump Steak, and the Trump Casinos.
Paw-Paw is past the point of medication; he, desperately, requires 24/7 care. No, we do not live because of the U.S. I believe the statement should read, “Canada lives REGARDLESS of the U.S.”.
Americans are in such terrible trouble. If any country needed help, currently, it is the U.S. Pseudo-Gestapo pulling people off the street, out of the cars, out of their homes; killing and maiming with no consequence.
Canadians realize that the U.S. is not our ally; the U.S. in a little over a year’s time has turned into our greatest enemy. In fact, the enemy of all democratic nations.
(I did not write this; it is the work of a good friend who always seems to encapsulate thoughts, perfectly.)
There is a Public Relations lesson I learned in my old job and took into my personal life.
A reputation can be destroyed in one single incident. It will take at least two years of very hard work to restore it or it can take 10 years or it will never be restored.
When you have taken a reputation destroying arrow, public relations will swoop in and immediately make three demands.
First, you will apologize immediately and profusely. You will accept all accountability.
Second, you make an immediate and decisive decision to demonstrate accountability and a desire to change. And that will include reparations of some kind.
Third, you will spend whatever amount of time to demonstrate a change of path.
You have seen this happen time and again with idiot celebrities.
Example! Will Smith after his reprehensible behaviour at the Oscars.
He apologized quickly, a decisive decision was made to come out of the public eye for years ( while he works on himself), banned from the Academy. He will never be nominated again.
At the top of his career the pedestal was very quickly kicked out. Four years later he is still working on redemption. Or perhaps he’s not. Perhaps he’s given up.
One man, one slap, one destroyed reputation.
Now imagine if you will.
A friend, an ally, a comrade in arms, a neighbour, a brother suddenly, inexplicably, shockingly turning on you.
I can tell you as someone who has walked beside dementia both professionally and personally it is the most difficult thing to contend with. To watch someone you loved and who loved you with everything suddenly one day look at you with vacant eyes. Speak to you with venom. Deny they ever loved you and yes, sometimes physically assault you.
In those moments it is very difficult to remember them as who they were.
The most soul wrenching grief response families must work through later is the guilt about how they secretly felt through those moments.
The USA has become Will Smith to some. Angry, violent, so gifted by the fates but still discontent OR the demented beloved to others.
Outcome is all the same.
Whichever it is, the American reputation in in utter tatters and will not be repaired in my lifetime.
Going forward you will see worldwide protests, flag burning, anthem booing. Brace yourself.
The year of appeasement, ego stroking, golden trophies, carriage rides around Windsor Castle have come to an end.
Here in Canada, no one will admit this outloud but we are amused.
Because the world has now learned what Canada ( the ugly redheaded step-sister to the USA) has always known.
Canada knew it didn’t matter how ferociously we fought in wars beside them, how many Americans we hid and got out of Iran during the hostage taking crisis, how many nationals we took into our homes in Gander after 9-11. It didn’t matter Canadian utility companies were the first into New Orleans after Katrina or that Air Canada was the first airline to land with supplies and rescue equipment. Or the Canadian water bombers sent to California during wildfires.
We knew it never mattered.
This nation of ours would always be the butt of American jokes. Was always underestimated and always under appreciated.
As George Bush stood before cameras the day after 9-11 and thanked nations…..while Canadians were in the very process of feeding and housing Americans. Canada was the only nation he “ forgot”.
Who can you trust in dark days? Trust the friend who will hide you. If those Canadians had been caught hiding Americans in Iran they would have been hung from trees.
Go watch the movie Argo as they steal Canadian valour making Canadians bit players in their own history.
The world though, doesn’t know that.
They don’t know what we know.
They don’t know that the USA has a massive ego, a great sense of entitlement, and absolutely NO appreciation for the world they share as global citizens.
When they tell you they are the greatest nation in the world…..they mean it. They believe that. And what’s more, the world owes them. And they are here to collect.
I admit, I am amused.
It’s just been embarrassing. Watching other nations bow before Caligula, making great promises, kowtowing with outstretched hands of gold. Only to then watch a car plant of Koreans, there to help, to be dragged away in shackles. More tariffs slapped on, leaders humiliated in the Oval Office and now….after it all….a promise of annilation either “ the easy way or the hard way”.
Meanwhile “Nasty” Canadians refused to bow the head despite threats of annexation, scolding from an American “Ambassador”, tariffs, or letters of complaints from American Governors, Canada knows you can’t ever give the USA enough.
Frank McKenna Canadian ambassador to the United States, told Americans post Katrina: “you are our friends and together we are family – you do not suffer alone.”
But they always thought they did. Because they placed no value on who sat beside them
Back in the day; I was co-chair of a Neo-Pagan association. It was a lot of fun, met some great people and as with all organizations, some not-so-great folk. That’s life.
Time tends to colour memory and I only have good memories of those times. I will keep it that way.
Am I thinking of restarting a Pagan association? A.B.S.O.L.U.T.E.L.Y NOT! As much fun as we had, it was tiring, mentally draining and freaking expensive. My “spirituality” has changed. Time and age will do that.
I do know that I think…again, time/memory thing, I was more centered. Maybe it is because I had something to concentrate on, a focus, something I, currently, lack. I don’t have hobbies, per se. I have things I enjoy, like video games but no actual hobbies.
Am I still a Pagan? I suppose. I don’t believe in deities, more of an archetypal influence on human behaviour and goals. Do I still believe in the various practices? Sure do. I believe in a universal unconscious and our ability to tap into it. Based on knowledge of past behaviours, influences? Probably but regardless, while I have stored those practices away for about 10 -15 years, they do still hold an “allure” for me.
Rituals were something to which I always looked forward; by and large they were very centering events. Oh we had a few that were way off base; usually due to “visitors” or people that carried a very dark side, invading our space. For the most part though; they were good events. Solidifying events.
With all that is going on, in this world, in my life; I think I may start to strike up those rituals again, on a personal level however. Perhaps this is the focus I need in my life. I’m very scattered. And I don’t like that feeling at all.
If You Agree With The Venezuelan Invasion; Block Me, Unfriend Me…
During a season usually associated with pseudo-Peace-On-Earth-Good-Will-Toward…you know the rest, Yam-Tits invades a sovereign nation, using drugs as his excuse. Let that sink in…he invaded a SOVEREIGN nation; regardless of what Maduro may be, Venezuela is a SOVEREIGN nation. The same as Ukraine, a SOVEREIGN nation in 2022. The same as Poland was a SOVEREIGN nation in 1939.
He is embezzling a nation. He sells himself and his country to the highest bidder. Meanwhile, average Americans are struggling to buy groceries, pay utilities and make medical insurance payments. His bots and misinformation army are in high gear.
None of the above is a news flash to anyone with an I.Q. above that of your average doorknob. What was a newsflash to me, was that I have friends who applaud what the Criminal-In-Chief did with Venezuela. Is Maduro a piece of shit? No kidding. Is it up to a foreign nation to determine the future of a sovereign nation? Absolutely not. Drugs? Come on, who is stupid enough to belief that bullshit? Rescuing the people of Venezuela? Again, take your idiot pill this morning? His backers, his puppet masters want the oil. Apparently they aren’t rich enough.
Who is next? Cuba, with an eye on Mar-A-Lago 2.0 because Gaza doesn’t seem to be working out to well for the slimeball?
And where is the U.N. or N.A.T.O. in all of this?
Honestly, I knew politicians were the worst sort of criminals, bought and sold like streetworkers but with less integrity than the latter. I am withdrawing from the world at large; I am going to concentrate on family, friends, hobbies and my favourite sports teams. My duty is to myself, to my family and to hell with the rest of the world. Fiscal rape and subjugation is at levels that bring to mind the world of medieval monarchy, corruption and the Hapsburgs. We are done, until it is all burned down, we are done.
CBS caved to Yam-Tits and his administration. No journalistic integrity in the States.
Please find the link to the episode of 60 Minutes that CBS pulled. Global Canada television aired it, it is no longer on their website – I guess their legal department tucked their tails…BUT 😁 the internet is forever. Here is the exposé, save and share, wherever you can.

Just for the hell of it, I asked AI whether or not the U.S. will ever recover from Trump and his MagaT traitors. Here is what I received:
Will the U.S. ever recover from Trump?
As of late 2025, whether the U.S. will “recover” from Donald Trump’s presidency remains a subject of intense debate among political scientists, economists, and historians. Some believe the nation’s institutions are resilient enough to bounce back, while others argue that structural and international damage may be permanent.
Perspectives on Domestic Recovery
Optimistic View: Some analysts argue that American democracy has survived severe tests before—including the 1960s civil unrest and the Great Depression—and that the current polarization may lead to a necessary reinforcement of democratic guardrails.
Institutional Damage: Critics point to long-term changes, such as a conservative-leaning Supreme Court and the potential politicization of federal agencies like the FBI or ICE, which could take decades or new constitutional reforms to address.
Social Polarization: Many believe that the deep cultural and political divides exacerbated during the Trump years may persist for at least a generation, requiring sustained efforts to rebuild trust in civic institutions.
Economic and Global Impact
International Standing: There are significant concerns that the U.S. has permanently lost its role as the “leader of the free world.” Allied nations in Europe and the Pacific have begun adjusting to a less reliable U.S. partner, potentially leading to a long-term decline in American global prestige.
Market and Trade: The imposition of broad tariffs and the resulting retaliatory measures have led some economists to fear a permanent hit to U.S. economic dynamism, even after the current administration leaves office.
Recent Developments (2025)
Economic Strain: In late 2025, voters have expressed growing concerns about a “deteriorating U.S. economy” and persistent high prices, which have negatively impacted public approval of the current administration’s policies.
Midterm Outlook: As the 2026 midterms approach, some data suggests a potential shift in support among key demographics (young adults, independents), which could lead to a legislative counter-balance if Democrats or dissident Republicans gain ground.
Personally, I don’t think a recovery is possible; definitely not in my lifetime. We watched a proud nation or rather what the propaganda machine wanted the world to believe, was a proud nation, brought to shame, brought to global ridicule in less than a year. The country, its voters and that demented idiot, his assorted minions have managed to turn the U.S. into a joke. The rotten underbelly has been exposed, the racism, the grift, the fake marching under a Christian banner and perhaps, most disturbing to anyone with a shred of morality, is the apparent acceptance of pedophilia.
Its over. Americans were under the mistaken impression that the U.S. was admired; nope. The rest of the world kept their smirks to themselves but there really cannot be any hiding the derision anymore. The American propaganda machine was pretty good, I have to admit it but the U.S. is not a financial juggernaut. Their debt load is the highest in the world. Don’t let the sleight of hand, the fake media lights and sparkle fool you. They are just not-all-that. The world knows it, its time the U.S. citizens learned the truth.
** To the “AMURICAN Patriots” and their attempts at obscenity riddled comments? No, the world doesn’t need you and please, take a few minutes, look around your house and see how many products are actually manufactured in the U.S. I dare say the vast majority of your clothing, your household items and the parts used in the manufacturing process are Chinese, Indian or Vietnamese. Sit down before the oxygen hits your brain and you can indulge in the, obviously, painful process (for you) of having a coherent thought. **
Very sad that no one needs to be told to whom this is referencing.
Been a minute since I posted; the flu invaded our home. Otherwise strong individual within our home, ended up, in an ambulance. Ignore the anti-vaxx morons and get that shot. It may not address this particular virulent strain; influenza A, known as H3N2 but can lessen the symptoms. Emergency rooms, both pediatric and general are flooded with this form of flu. It can progress to pneumonia in a freaking nanosecond, even in the hardiest of folks. So yeah, that was my little P.S.A.
Now, to addressing the Pooh and piglet meme. No one has to ask who these two favourite kiddie characters are talking about. That alone, is telling. Had the internet and memes been a thing during Hitler’s reign, Stalin’s domination of the U.S.S.R. – the corresponding memes would have been the same.

Women were right, you know. The Patriarchy. Absolute power corrupts absolutely. We’ve been saying this for eons. I think what really enrages me are the women who protect and support these slime balls. The desperate “Pick me” women. The ones with no identity, no courage, no self-respect.
It is time to pull them all down. Time to kick their pedestals out from under them. History has a “How-To” guide; from medieval to modern times, tips and tricks abound.
