I’ve been feeling tear eyed today. It is awesome & poignant that we as #Canadians have been invited to the #EU, when you recognize that this is the EUs way of telling the US regime that they #StandWithCanada, as the regime repeatedly threatens our sovereignty. Thank you, @vonderleyen.ec.europa.eu.

Embarking on a new chapter, attending a new school in a new city can be exciting, scary & lonely all at the same time. Sometimes it is finding comfort in something as simple as #walks to a luxury bar of soap that can slowly open you up to discovering that the new city you live in has become a #home.

Moving to a new city to study is stressful, but perhaps it just takes tromps to visit some soap to open yourself up to discovering a place like St. John's.

#Torties are smart. Now if you could just put them in charge of cleaning up the US house, they’ll bat anyone they find annoying or that they see as threatening out the door.

Today at the #Neurodiverse #Entrepreneur Summit, I enjoyed Selling Within Your Spoons with @anniepreneur.bsky.social, & kept thinking, "Wow! Someone who actually understands me, & sees my strengths & struggles, & has non-sleazy solutions to sales that I'd actually feel good about." #StoryToGo

You are not allergic to sales. You are allergic to being sold to by buttheads. Sales avoidance is that pukey, nasty, helpless, maybe even sweaty feeling we get when we are asked to name the price, handle an objection, or follow up. It is not a personal failing. It is a learned response. ~ Non- Sleazy Sales Academy

Annie P Ruggles, "that selling can feel fun, soothing, even pleasurable".

Next hint: This was the most difficult part of the rail to build & expensive mile of track built anywhere in the world at the time. Where is this? #NameThatTrail

Please don’t make jokes about Trump and Epstein. The survivors are still waiting for justice. They were children who experienced unspeakable horrors and abuse. They’ve been ignored, gaslit, threatened and re-traumatized. It’s not a joke and every predator must be punished.

I keep going back to this. This is a taunt. They're taunting us. There is no other possible interpretation of what they're doing. But media simply ignores this deranged behavior, because if they talk about it, one must conclude that DHS is a rogue agency, of villainous paramilitary thugs.

There is absolutely no theory or philosophy of US government where it is appropriate for the Department of Homeland Security to taunt, mock, and terrorize the citizenry of the Homeland. It's pure evil - an authoritarian campaign of vindictive terror.
