Trying to make an honest living & not get killed by bad weather, bad food, bad tech, bad people, or bad drivers. It's a low bar, I know. But at least I'm happy.

@CTVNews Kozlova… noted that not all studies on stem cells in space point in the same direction. Her own research… showed an increase in growth-associated genes [which] suggests that under certain conditions spaceflight may promote a more youthful state in some stem cell populations.

@elonmusk Not exactly “perfect”. He fails to explain “borrowing” which is REALLY the selling of debt through bond sales and loans from foreign countries like the USA. THEN, for Canada to repay the debt, we grant the them cheap access to OUR natural resources = good for USA but not CDA.

@JohnRustad4BC Calm down. It’s not an unprecedented failure. ElectionsBC has always worked exceptionally hard to deliver transparent, auditable, secure, and verifiable results. They did that here, too!

@rupercharged @elonmusk X is now designating everything I write as “probable spam”. No idea why except that my views seem to diverge from those of Elon’s. Tell me again about free speech and who owns the media owns the message and the electorate, too?

@whitehobo_inc @gayguycandleco Wait a second! X just tagged my comments as “probable spam?!?” I put a lot of effort into my dumb post to tell the world my viewpoints on someone else’s post and it’s equating it with an erectile dysfunction vitamin? This social media channel sucks! Screw you @elonmusk

@whitehobo_inc @gayguycandleco Nope. That’s not the venue for comedy; he’s not Ricky Gervais or Bill Maher. It’s not even Chris Rock & Will Smith at the Oscars. It’s akin to making dead baby jokes at an abortion clinic. No one is laughing & a network is not obligated to broadcast anything it disagrees with.

@thebadguitarist @gayguycandleco It’ll take a complete upheaval. It’s not just politics. Business, healthcare, education - everything has been allowed to operate with impunity to kill the middle class and divide the population into haves and have nots. Balance can only be restored with a thriving middle class.

@therecount All good points. HOWEVER, the MOST carbon neutral vehicle is a used one that is at least 5 years old. The carbon that goes into mfg a NEW car is substantial. If you truly want to save the environment and be environmentally conscientious: recycle a car & buy a used one.

@krassenstein @RareImagery It’ll only be a fair trial “IF” he’s found innocent. Wait! Where did I hear that rhetoric before? Oh yeah - HE said it. “It’ll only be a fair election IF he’s elected”. Cant people see what’s going on here?!?!

@simonateba Hang on a second! Think about your claims: there’s a HUGE difference between SELLING a property over market value, versus using an asset to secure loans. The first one is perfectly legal in ANY situation - the financier didn’t have to pay. The second scenario is called fraud.

@billhinds302 @DiedSuddenly_ Has NOTHING to do with people coming across borders. Stop spreading hate. Diseases are airborne & infect those not vaccinated. Diseases are *statistically* eradicated when populations ARE vaccinated & RE-EMERGE when a small % ARE NOT vaccinated. Science is amazing like that.

@VivekGRamaswamy You missed the point. “Merit” evidences when people have opportunity. Women are overlooked because they aren’t groomed the way men are for leadership roles. But male-and-pale have also proven INcompetent, even with “merit”. Women might surprise you - if you take a leap of faith.

@AtlanticMirror_ While we all like to romanticize the idea of “soulmates”, and “true love”, I believe it is simply two mature adults that respect each other and who have learned to compromise and empathize. Sure, love is in there, but it’s more important to “like” the other person, too.

@KeenSpeak @WallStreetSilv Cars are not investments. They are depreciating assets. Only a quirk lately in supply and demand that is seeing cars retain their value, longer. But they are still depreciating assets.

[Authentic Human @mpivon]

@BWay124 @WallStreetSilv No. A conservative govt redirects support to the wealthy expecting job creation. But lately the $ just goes to shareholders & execs. Liberal govt taxes the wealthy to redirect $ where it’s needed. But that also requires more govt.

@LeadingReport Baloney! Even IF they did that, they’d never admit it. And, having worked in the elections space, I can confidently say this DID NOT happen!

@RealMartyT7 Becoming American will also mean abandoning your religious freedom. If you’re not Christian (i.e.: Muslim, Jewish, Buddhist, etc) you’ll have to leave your faith at the door. Alas, true leaders must learn to respect people’s faiths. “Be not conformed to this world” (Rom. 12:2).

@LeadingReport BREAKING: New poll indicates that a majority of U.S. voters believe voter turnout impacted the 2020 election results.

[Authentic Human @mpivon]

@LeadingReport BREAKING: An election expert’s report shows that Trump got an extra 450,000 unexpected votes in Texas during the 2020 election and an extra 95,000 unexpected votes in California.

See? I can do that too!

@solomonblanc @historyinmemes The invite is perpetual - because the future is unlimited. It doesn’t matter who he “sent” the invite to because “sent” is in the past. The invite, in its current form, is still valid - to ANYONE wishing to attend, and forever in the future. No RSVP required. Just… show up.
