An Open Letter To Tiny House Hunters

I find that there exist two overall categories of tiny house hunters.
One group of you is the lone individual. You’re maybe young, an artist, with lots of student loan debt, and you tell us all the lie that you’re going to buy the tiny home and buy some property with it, except the truth is, your tiny home will forever haunt the yard of one of your siblings because that’s where you plant it. Or maybe you’re older — a musician gone to pasture or an aging hipster or a yarn lady — and you’re divorced or your spouse has perished in the usual way and now you just want to pare down your life. I understand that.
Another group of you are the couples.
Oh, the couples…

The Seeds of a Revolution

ar-15.pngThe backlash to Police killings could get right out of control. Sixty seven Government agencies, non-law enforcement and unrelated to the Dept. of Defense, have been huge buyers of guns, ammunition and body armor. The same Government that is trying to get guns out of citizen’s hands is arming its bureaucratic employees with serious military equipment.
Creating an army to crush citizens loss of confidence in Gov’t and anger towards the statu quo and elite?

Wynneing!

Life is a charging station, gonna charge it all night long…

The full network of stations will allow electric vehicles to travel from Windsor, Ont., to Ottawa, or from Toronto to North Bay, Ont., as well as in and around major urban centres.
The stations — which will be placed at more than 250 locations including highways, workplaces and public spaces — are all expected to be in service by the end of March next year.
The government says the $20 million investment in the charging stations comes from Ontario’s $325 million Green Investment Fund, which supports projects that fight climate change.

Hey, it’s only money debt.

Oh, Shiny Prime Minister!

Bend over, Canada – your Sky Gods demand sacrifice: Here comes carbon pricing

A hint was the enthusiasm McKenna expressed about how major financial institutions support the government’s plan.
Of course they do — they’re going to make a fortune trading carbon credits — just as major industrial emitters who also support carbon pricing are going to make billions of dollars in subsidies our governments are throwing at them in return for their support.
Indeed, at the same Toronto Board of Trade event where McKenna spoke, Bank of England Governor Mark Carney predicted global carbon pricing will create a $5 to $7 trillion-a-year business in so-called clean infrastructure projects, much of it financed through capital markets.

I, Napoleon

Connecticut;

…the state’s Department of Children and Families has released a new glossary of terms designed to help you navigate the new world of transgender sensibilities and avoid saying anything which will earn you a stiff reprimand from your betters. For starters, you can forget about the term “racism.” In this brave new world, if you think there are only two genders defined by your 23rd chromosomal pair, you’re engaging in genderism. And the language lessons only go downhill from there.
