Stuff I found interesting or amusing and thought I'd share.

- It's a great time to discover the genuine you.

- VDH: The fantasy house of Mark Carney.

- I'm going to pivot instead and say he should run for President. Print up those Mitch McConnell for President 2028 bumper stickers. They could even outsell the Voldemorte for President ironic ones.

- From the archives: Leadership lessons from 2,400 years ago.

Stuff I found interesting or amusing and thought I'd share. 

- First it was the Trump Administration telling illegal immigrants to deport themselves - now is Wall Street telling Google to break itself up?

- Leo XIV named first American Pope.

- Interesting - the trues size of countries.

- Albertexit? I've been talking about this for a while. Remember Alberta doesn't have to be the 51st state either. They could be a stand alone nation on the population scale of about Finland's.

Stuff I found interesting or amusing and thought I'd share.

- Canadian cities affected by the tariffs. Wonder if Calgary being the most effected plus Alberta thinking about leaving Canada gives Trump more leverage.

- From the archives: Cool story of the double life of a "marvelous Chinese conjurer"  

- Niall Ferguson: Trump 2.0 borrows a lot from Nixon. There are parallels but Trump is a 1 of 1 but Niall's default seems to be historical parallels. 

- USPS announces additional 2025 stamps. Got to mix up my stamp game. (HT Execupundit who credits Cultural Offering)

Stuff I found interesting or amusing and thought I'd share.

- What if Canada was Conservative? Making the Canadian military stronger is something I think everyone can support.

- From the archive:  Who was Lilith - Adam's first wife in the Garden of Eden?

- Matt Taibbi's statement to Congress. No matter your party we should all agree that censorship is wrong. Taibbi also has some observations on his testimony worth reading.

- Apple released emergency security updates last night. I was completely unaware. (HT Borepatch)

Trump and Tariffs

Donald Trump is just saying we'll treat other countries the way they treat the us. Have a free trade agreement with us - we expect you to honor it. Break the agreement or levy taxes of any kind on us and FAFO.

Texas also remands Canada of their limited size in comparison. Canada knew this reckoning was coming too.

 Some clear thinking advice for Canada from Shane Parrish.

Oh Canada


 Many celebrities and lefties (but I repeat myself) vowed to move to Canada if Donald Trump was elected. While these were mostly empty threats from people who live in a world of make believe - these people also mostly live in states that do not require ID's to vote in federal elections. Canada does.

Here are the voting requirements in Canada to vote in national elections:

  • Present a government issued ID with name and address.
  • Otherwise you have to show two pieces of ID - at least one must show your current address.
  • If you lack proper ID you can declare your name and address in writing and someone with proper ID who lives in the polling location can vouch for you.
The hypocrisy - it burns!
