Hi folks, counter opinion, but I think the dunking on Natalie Harp has run its course, and now it’s starting to make people look not so great.

First of all, we all are seeing Trump‘s health, and him falling asleep and barely able to stand up. I concur with the opinion of some that Republicans are more concerned that he is going to lose his image of strongman virility, because we all know, without being too, graphic the chances of him having any sort of sexual relationship with this woman are nil.

And second, her obsession with Trump, and him being some sort of daddy figure to her, is not that uncommon in a lot of far right households where young women are brought up to worship their husbands and dads. I think mocking her is starting to just look plain mean. I’m starting to feel badly for her.

Third, we know the Trump regime made it into a bigger news story because they want to make him look like a strongman, which clearly he is not. But OK, the point has been made and they probably made a mistake doing it. Let’s take the W and walk away now.

There is plenty of other fodder from the failing presidency with record low approval to focus on, and I suggest we move in that direction

@DomusWeb The article fails to clearly identify what the "cultural identity" was and how it was lost. The only criticism the author seems to have is that the surrounding industrial wasteland is no more and was replaced by structures not accessible to them.

@dezeen How many birds will die when they slam into that invisible wall. There's no need for this.

@susan_p_riley Ben is gearing up for the upcoming January leadership review. Looking to make a mark and stake out turf. Stornoway dreams.

@PlannerSean Who is designing these? The size is workable, but the details are less than thoughtful. Space behind bath door? Does a unit of this size need a furnace & washer dryer? Dishwasher? If you really need a utility room then access it from the bath to get another useable wall.

@PlannerSean That's one way for the sideyard. Could also use fuseable link roller fire shutters on the back. Cost is always an issue.

@DomusWeb I always love a trendy bit of talkitecture, but what is "authorial" design?

@archinect That thing from Heatherwick is a sculptural mess.

@gill_godwin @yvonne4tn @ElectionsCan_E You do and you are good at it.

[Michael Kilpatrick @mjkdesigns]

@gill_godwin @yvonne4tn @ElectionsCan_E Blows up my theory then.

@ColinPlantNDP @NDP @SGI_NDP Thanks

@thomasjuneau @gill_godwin It's not likely that President Musk would allow that. It wouldn't be economically advantageous for him. #presidentmusk

@gill_godwin @JohnFraserOS @GinettePT Well done!

@gill_godwin @EcologyOttawa You could just spend an afternoon and start counting. Sand paper and Olive oil make it a lot easier to do.

@EmconSouthVI No road maintenance crews on Mayne Island. The roads are icey and dangerous. Who do I contact about this? #mayneisland #snow #ice #dangerous

@ChrisWalters_ I put 850 bulbs in today. 😁 In pots and the garden. You want a thick leather glove on your trowel hand.
