With climate crisis posing a grave threat to our collective future, millions living below the poverty line, the economic and social shocks of the coronavirus pandemic and unemployment wave still reverberating, and the richest 1% accumulating ever-more wealth, Gen Z and Millennials say they have grown increasingly disillusioned with capitalism

It is a lot of hard work and not very good for the environment so this will probably be the last year I heat with wood. I am going to go with electricity so I started buying energy efficient space heaters. Electricity is pretty cheap in BC plus in BC it is all produced from renewable resources. Heating with wood has helped keep me in good shape so I will have to find some kind of exercise. Cheers and happy weekend! less

We have lots of bulb flowers popping up and the foxgloves are staring to push out new leafs. I think I can also see buds starting on the alder trees. Cheers!

But I taught him how to do the What's Up head nod and how to look cool while doing it. Before I taught him the trick he spent most of his day looking out the window and resting his chin on the window sill. So I started giving him a what's up head nod ever time I went out on the deck and after 6 months or so he started giving me one back. But it wasn't a very cool looking what's up head nod so I spent another year teaching him how to do the what's up head nod in a cool looking way. I bet I could also teach a 120 year old person how to look cool while doing a what's up head nod. Cheers! less

She set my wife up with some new meds plus she started my wife on some exercises that will help her get rid of the carbon dioxide in her lungs. The down side to that is part of the exercise includes my wife doing a little bit of singing so I might have to buy myself a pair of ear buds. We are also getting a virtual health monitoring system and a diet specialist visit us once a week. These things are all free for us because we are on pension and the wife is in home palliative care.

And Trump was quick to post that Biden should shoot it down and if he was president that's what he would of done. Thing is there were 3 Chinese spy balloons in American air space during his term in office and he didn't order that they be shot down and his supporters didn't ask why he isn't shooting them down. So I think there is a double standard at play. Cheers! less

For injuries, my experience has been fine, but for other conditions, I have not been satisfied. I also have heard many stories of wildly inaccurate diagnoses.

I think it is a clutching at straws type of defence and in the long run the Trump Organization will have to pay the $2.5 million fine. Cheers!
