dpsjackasspath.substack.com/p/natural-bo... Kids kill things. Maybe not all kids, but a fair portion. Killing things, it’s experimental. Some like it. It’s educational. Life, death, power, cruelty. At some point the opportunity to kill will arise and a lot of kids will kill.

Meanwhile in Chicago….U.S. Border Patrol agents deployed to Chicago led a late-night raid on an apartment building this week, rappelling from helicopters onto rooftops and breaking down doors in an operation authorities said targeted gang members but which swept up U.S. citizens and families.

Orange Shirt Day has raised awareness of Canada's dark history with the first peoples and is a vibrant celebration of indigenous culture. But there's a hell of long way to go when the government of Canada continues to stymy, thwart, and block justice. charlieangus.substack.com/p/the-dark-s...

I haven’t been here as much as I thought I would be when I decided to move away from Facebook. Even with the stench of Zuckerberg and all the annoying frustrating FB things t’s not as easy to leave the milieu, connections, and community that one ends up having after decades on the platform.

The last time Pierre Poilievre was in government, he introduced a bill making it harder for many people to vote, harder to prevent electoral fraud, easier to get around campaign spending limits, and illegal for Elections Canada to promote voter participation. He named it the Fair Elections Act.

All set up for the show tonight at Wheelies. Carter Felker is in town from Calgary and his soundcheck blew my mind so we’re in for a treat. I’m opening up the night with a set of songs on the piano
