Do not feed stray cats.


SPCA says no

Can carry avian bugs

Do not do it…

Stray cats cannot be kept away from birds and birds can move avian flu very quickly.

Joy needed…

Merry Christmas

This Christmas season you may not want to forget about the people in the other world. They could use a little bit of support. Follow the link above for the Oxfam books that they have to raise money and promote literacy.

By the By pyro beetle

This pyror beetle showed up after the wildfires of 2023. I believe it was anyway. It was photographed on a wooden edge of an apartment building. These beetles live on burnt wood according to sources.

What’s the biggest risk you’d like to take — but haven’t been able to?

Climb the mountain of your disadvantage

The classic one from puberty’s plight.

Dime shows

Dime shows peaked during the 1880s and ’90s. The professor often had human freaks and would give discourses and pictures would be taken. However, and it’s not unlikely that The show must Go on in so many lives and that a necessity of sideshows as a distraction was aptly demonstrated in many occurrences.

Day off  river cleaning:

Dated photo
Snow was dear back then…

Day off takes advantage of snow

This fella had an unexpected day off a year ago or 2 years ago and he decided with the fresh snow that he could do something at the river, so he went down and he sledded what he found as far as recyclable stuff back into the economy.

Postal strike November 15th

The action is ongoing…

Funny coincidence occurring, an Amazon delivery truck upset on its way to deliver. A truckload of packages was being cleaned up according to Al Clark in Merritt.

No wonder people think there’s a spirit in these things, it’s like a mystery of iniquity that works. We don’t know why but these things kind of come up for reasons that we don’t understand. One thing we know is to stay away from conspiracy thoughts because they’re just not healthy.

How..

Dealing with conspiracy theories can be challenging, but here are some effective strategies: Firstly, approach the conversation with empathy and understanding, as accusations of misinformation can lead to defensiveness. Listen actively to their beliefs and try to understand their perspective. Share credible information from trustworthy sources, as presenting facts can help dismantle false claims. Encourage critical thinking by asking open-ended questions that prompt reflection on the logic and evidence behind their beliefs. It’s also important to set boundaries; if the discussion becomes unproductive or hostile, it’s okay to disengage. Finally, maintain a calm and respectful demeanor, as this can promote more constructive dialogues.

Time waits for no-one

Gentle Tuesday,

What’s not forever your pain!

Look up the stars are smiling at you, you matter.

Look down.  The earth says days are yours.

Look around Joy is only partly concealed.

Find it to share there is no compare.

Give what you need It’s the Creed.

Long face to go fresh pace to stride.

Purpose coming in like a tide.

Tomorrow the same…

Solar Maximum

Sources are saying that the sun is at solar maximum r. And will continue maybe even in the 2026. The 11-year cycle seems to be not to the minute. Look for more magnetic storms particles going by the Earth, producing Aurora Borealis light effects that you might enjoy.
