I posted the following as part of a conversation and had a beautiful, young woman “like” it! Another one that I had to block. I mean, I get that they’re bots, but you’d think they’d have SOME kind of filter in the algorithm. 😂

Also, I’m SO sick of blocking those young, beautiful women who are just dying to meet wrinkly, old men like me. Must be the unmistakable old man smell. It’s irresistible. Seriously though, I must block 4 or 5 of them a day. Gets old fast. You don’t see THAT on Bluesky either.

THAT is what this beautiful woman, who was maybe 25, liked. Yep. That old man smell is some powerful stuff. You need to be a responsible user so you don’t have riots breaking out when you’re mall walking. “He’s mine!” “No. I SMELLED him first. Now let GO of my hair!” 😜

And THIS boys and girls is why you think VERY carefully before getting tattoos. And just for shits and giggles, it hurts MORE getting them burned off than it does to get them in the first place. Hey! It’s a lose-lose.

Think this was shot during a meteor shower? Or are there always that many shooting stars, but you just don’t notice in real time? Either way it’s absolutely spectacular!

This was the response to a silly pun that I made. It’s the first openly racist reply I’ve gotten on Bluesky. As it happens I’m actually an atheist, but my profile mentions that I was born Jewish. Bizarre seeing angry racism about bad puns. Sad too. He’s a fellow Canuck. 🤔🤷‍♂️🇨🇦

I should mention that I thought about reporting it. But I decided it was better to let it be. As my wife (who’s Catholic if it matters to you) says, “I like to know where the hate is.” Found it!

Just had an interesting exchange with someone about cancer treatments. His position was that you can’t trust our institutions for information, so go to Twitter. I asked where the folks on Twitter get THEIR information. Silence. Do YOU trust Twitter over your doctor? If so, why?

I’m MUCH more relaxed now that I spend less time on social media. It was never HOURS a day or anything, but I’d check out how my Twitter friends were doing EVERY day. They’re doing FRENZIED AMERICAN POLITICS! Few seem happy. Mostly angry and frustrated. A happy Canadian. 🇨🇦

I’ve been exploring Bluesky as an alternative. So far it seems more casual and certainly less obsessed with American Politics. How many of my American friends out there even KNOW that CANADA’S Prime Minister RESIGNED! He’ll stay on till March 24 when Liberals pick a new leader.

However, it demonstrates how COMPLETELY American politics dominates Twitter. Not American politics? Not interested. And the tone is often so vile, divisive and vindictive that, from the outside, it seems amazing the whole place isn’t on fire! My blood pressure’s lower already. 🙂

I’m just astounded by the abilities of these pups. And they’re just SO darned cute!

…point of asking about sharing chores many years ago when we first moved in together. Anything I could help with, but don’t? She asked in return. A few small things, but mostly both happy. I am NOT allowed near laundry. I CAN and have done it well. She’s just very particular.

Notice it says it’s gluten free vodka? I’ve never really worried about the gluten in my hard liquor. 🥃 If it’s something that YOU worry about, just keep drinking and eventually you’ll find yourself feeling less and less concerned about gluten……or anything else. Magical stuff!

I’d like to think that if there were more kind King’s Guards like him in the world, it would be a much happier place. Kudos my friend. 🏆 I’m not crying. YOU’RE crying! 🥹

I’m a retired 64 year old Canadian school teacher. God how I wish I could get a sneak peek at how history views this period in politics. What will they make of Trump, distrust of media, the division, anger and fear in America, and SO much more in US politics 75 years from now?

I certainly can’t imagine it being remembered as the golden age of American politics. How many will think “surely some of this HAS to be exaggeration”? It’s hard to believe much of what’s happening and we’re LIVING it! Ah, teenagers. I both envy you and fear for your future. 😺🤞

Canadian here. I’m 64 and always been interested in politics. I got “the bug” in high school when the head of a major Canadian Party came to speak. His name was Ed Broadbent. He was the leader of the New Democratic Party (NDP), which are a left wing party. I am, and always…

So? Why the rant? I guess I’m hoping that if I can convince even 1 or 2 people to get involved. Learn about issues. Get out and VOTE. Well, then I’ve made the world just a little more democratic. That has to be a good thing. It’s not usually a WWE event, like Trump rallies. But…

…that doesn’t make it any less important. In fact politics isn’t SUPPOSED to be entertainment. It’s about having a say in how things WORK in your country. How much more important could it be?! 🤔🤷‍♂️🇨🇦
