  • *Political violence is quintessentially American Conservatism

    A lot of that historical violence has been directed at minorities, social groups, marginalized groups, Indigenous people, LGBTQ+, union workers, blacks, Hispanics, women

    If you want to narrow it all down … most of the American political violence, the majority of it over the past 200 years was driven by white Christian males who believe they are a ruling class and need to be on top overpowering everyone else for their own personal benefit … usually with the lame excuse that it is God’s will. And I honestly also don’t believe it has anything to do with God or Christianity or even religion … it’s just a small entitled group of people who just want all the power, all the money and all the control … you know the same jungle mentality of that one male monkey who wants all the bananas and all the females and be able to pound their chest and make everyone scared.

    I’m Indigenous Canadian and this does not mean I want to jump over the political cliff and call for the end of all white Christian males … I’m just pointing out the history … and what I believe is that we can all coexist together without any one group dominating over another and everyone just living together equally - socially and economically.












  • Some no name group in Pakistan should just set up a ‘Nobele Peace Prize’ committee and award him the prize in a big grand ceremony in Lahore.

    In the ceremony, just place a large oversized gold coloured metal cheap copy of the Nobel Peace Prize and put over Trump’s neck.

    It’s not like these idiots follow convention or want to agree with reality - we would know but they wouldn’t care and they could go on living in their own delusional reality.




  • Investors are like parasitic leeches to any business model. As soon as you add them, the business has to grow in order to satisfy the leeches who provide no benefit to the model other than to be attached to it. If you ignore the leech, they’ll drain all your lifeforce, so your only option is to satisfy them and feed them. Unfortunately, they are also ravenous creatures who are never satisfied. If you feed them a little, they’ll want more next time in an endless cycle.

    Once you are infected by investors … eventually they will destroy whatever you created.



  • The worst I ever heard was a friend of mine who lived not far from Toronto. This was way back in the 80s when living half an hour from the downtown still meant you were close to a lot of wildlife. He had a husky dog and sometimes when friends came over, the dog was too young and hyperactive to be inside with other people, he’d keep the dog in a large rear porch for a while. During one such visit, him and his friend heard the dog yelp and bark and make sounds like he were talking to someone. They thought they had another visitor. The dog went silent, then let out a yelp and howl like crazy. They ran into the back porch thinking someone did something to their dog.

    They saw the skunk squeeze into a crack in the wall and then the over powering stench hit them. They couldn’t stay and ran away outside with the dog who was in pain and howling and whimpering. In the rush, they left the inside door open for an hour without thinking … it stank up the house for months.

    This is an old family friend and I was a kid when we went to visit them that summer and you could still smell the lingering scent of sweet musk everywhere.

    He said he soaked the dog in tomato juice and bathed it twice a week for a month before they got back to some normal.

    It’s not bad if you can smell skunk in the outdoors because it quickly dissipates… but if the spray and scent get trapped inside a house or building, it takes a lot more effort to get rid of.
