#Kingtrump your totally crazy King Trump is out of control. He and his neoNazi brethren must not be part of the American government. They have to be stopped. This can only be done by Americans. We live in hope of deliverance from the Fuhrer and his SS buddies. The world awaits..

#trump #tariffs Canada please do not impose tariffs of any kind on the USA. It is pointless, indeed destructive upon ourselves. Either do nothing or impose export taxes on selected items. This means that US consumers will pay and will notice. Carney is an Economist, and must know this.🇨🇦

Problem is it’s not just him. It’s Licknutz and Hogsbreath and the other bastards who spread stupidity into Trump’s almost nonexistent brain. Normal folks have no chance against those assholes. What a bloody world.🔪🇺🇸🤡🦨🐀🪓🇨🇦

#trump Hi all of my American friends. Just a heads-up. You know this already Im sure. Your president is an ancient, demented old fart who is surrounded by right wing operatives determined to take the world as we know it apart, while convincing us that nothing is wrong. Don’t be fooled. 🇺🇸🇨🇦🤡🐀🐀🪓Thanks.

#trump&lakeontario Trump obviously doesn’t know that Lake Ontario is the Smallest of the Great Lakes. Renaming it Lake America will provide great laughs among those who read that Trumps’ penis is very small and shaped like a Mushroom.

Beautiful day here in Toronto. 25 sunny degrees. Just had to buy a new TV. One of ours suddenly had sound but no picture. New one works fine. Didn’t need that excitement this morning. I have been reading your blog. Very interesting. Have a great day, with an umbrella.

Also, Canada should not be putting tariffs on US imports. That’s a tax on Canadians. We should put export duties on our exports so that the American consumer pays trumps tariffs with our export taxes on top. Let’s be sensible here Canadians. 🇨🇦🐾

#trump #Ford Can somebody please shut Doug Ford up. He is doing no good at all firing stupidity back at the stupidity and lies coming from trump. This needs finesse from the Canadian side, not ignorance.🇺🇸🤡🪓🇨🇦

Last time I was swimming was in Nassau, when I was working in the Caribbean. I managed to get an hour of free time between meetings with the Surveyor General and made it to the beach. So this Y thing is very new.

Thanks Rosemary. This will be a whole new world for me. We visited yesterday and I joined up. My back is getting much worse and injections don’t work. So I will enjoy the steam room, hot tub, and the two swimming pools. There’s even a big TV set, comfy chairs and coffee. How bad can it be?

#swimming. Just joined the Y. I’m gonna swim and do aqua fit and enjoy it. It’s about time I took myself and my older ish body seriously. Wish me luck.🇨🇦Forget that asshole Trump and his horde of idiots. I’m not going to drown.

#trumprussianasset When Trump first became president I surmised that he was a Russian asset. It has become more obvious that this is the case. Laugh at me but I will be proved right. He loves Putin and the other dictators. He’s jealous of their power. He’s an asset of Putin… THINK ABOUT IT!

When is somebody in the USA going to finally do something about this man who is so obviously not in command of his faculties. He has some sort of dementia and it’s getting worse. Any intervention must be done within the USA by citizens. 🤡🪓

#trumptariffs May I make a suggestion. Don’t use tariff for tariff. Canada cannot win. Use Export Taxes on Potash and other items that America needs from us. An Export Tax is paid by Americans, on top of Trump’s tariffs. Make it hurt or it won’t work. Trump has to go!🦨🤡🐀sorry US friends.🇨🇦

Im just so grateful that you are taking it so well. I wouldn’t be. Still enough time to put more lettuce in for personal use?Surround it with an electric fence like I do with my fishpond. Seriously I hope this summer gets better for you, and all of us. Bob

Well that didn’t last long. Somebody told Trump that it wasn’t a good idea, being that it would be piracy. So he’s changed whatever passes for his mind these days. He’ll get Jared to buy the Hormuz strait…for a shakedown price. Grift all the way.🇺🇸🏴‍☠️🦨🤡🐀

Bob Marlow @bobmarlow.bsky.social · 13/07/2026
#trump. The trump administration has announced that the USA will charge 20% of cargo value to ships transiting the Hormuz Strait. THIS IS PIRACY! No other word exists for what the USA is doing. I trust that all US citizens will get the requisite Parrot and Wooden Leg. At least look the part. Bob🇨🇦

We must only hope that Iran observes the rules of war if the pilots are captured. But Hegseth’s musings will not help any decision that Iran may make on that subject.

A sparrow next to a much smaller warbler. Yet this warbler migrates twice a year over a large distance

#birds #birdoftheday #finches An American Goldfinch. I have a pair of these, both males, who seem to enjoy my backyard fishpond, and hang around all summer.
