Very nice to hear a sane voice from Piddington. Serious respect to this woman, who is apparently already being othered by more bigoted villagers.

My (41M) pipeline's hit, my proxies lost, one of my tankers was damaged, and my patronl accomplice/golf buddy (80M) isn't answering my calls. It appears his babysitter (35F) is exercising a malign influence on him. His son-in-law (45M) tells me not to worry but I'm worried. Reddit what do I do?

I think something that a lot of American liberals and leftists have yet to fully untangle for themselves relate back to two elements: (1) Progress is not automatic [and the good is not self-evident] (2) Prosperity Gospel, even when you’re correct about morals and ideas, is a lie.

Canada's National Observer @nationalobserver.com · 04/09/2026
It remains unclear who is behind the campaign but Canada’s National Observer has uncovered several unexplained connections — including to Let Alberta Decide, the largest third-party advertiser for independence in the referendum, as well as multiple individuals in Florida.

A US-linked network of fake websites is promoting Alberta separatism to AI chatbots
The websites present crude, AI-generated slop disguised as the voice of real Albertans. But they're made in Florida — and they're not even targeting Albertans directly.

INVESTIGATION: Canada’s National Observer has discovered a network of deceptive, AI-generated websites promoting Albertan separatism. The websites, rather than targeting human readers, are targeting chatbots — trying to influence the answers they provide.

The media gave more coverage to a totally fake, invented idea that the federal government was withholding aid to Hurricane Helene victims in 2024 than to Trump actually doing it in 2025/26. Why did the fake story get more coverage than the real one?

Hey Canadians — honey farmers are really getting hit hard by the tariff news. The US is the market for 60% of Canada’s honey. Honey doesn’t expire. They literally ate 3,000-year-old Egyptian honey & it was fine. Stock up on honey. Give it as gifts! Someone got 50 jars as wedding guest gifts.

Dan Sullivan voted to keep the Epstein files sealed. He then raked in campaign donations from Epstein associates, including one from Epstein's “black book.” It’s sickening. Alaska deserves better than a senator who profits off of protecting pedophiles.

Ken Paxton has spent months calling James Talarico a soyboy vegan and religious extremist. It isn't working: He's getting killed in fundraising, his scandals are mounting, and most polls show the race is either a toss-up or favors Talarico. So now, he's pivoting. The latest:
