A rare political post
Mar. 20th, 2026 03:36 pmI rarely post about politics. It was a nice thing that we ruined. But occasionally I see interesting things.
Like Alberta’s Wicked Witch of the West indicating she is going through the process to get security cleared so she can be briefed on foreign interference. It’s notable to me because that’s the smart thing to do and she’s not in my mental list of smart people. It also demonstrates to Baby PP how adults handle things rather than making wild claims about being muzzled. Nenshi is behaving like an idiot, though. Can you imagine if politicians decided who could get security clearances?
Speaking of babies, little PP has somehow become several degrees less odious since the con leadership convention. I secretly think Harper had a chat with him about his massive incompetence as party leader, loosing easy election after easy election, including his own seat. He’s MP of Pity Junction, Alberta these days because his Ottawa riding didn’t like how he sided with convoy idiots.
Speaking of convoy idiots, I see that the Feds are appealing the ruling that its use of the Emergencies act to clear that shit show was unconstitutional. I’m not entirely sure that the Feds care if they win, or if it’s more about finding out if the law is even constitutional at all. Or, a second option, the law is constitutional but its use in specific that case was not. Either way, if the ruling goes against them that’ll be a strong indicator that the law needs refining to be applied properly.
That’s it. Happy weekend!

I'm sending us all the good vibes I can spare, so our week is a good one, full of little victories and things that make us happy to be alive.
Performing some traffic maintenance today
Mar. 14th, 2026 01:04 pmHappy Saturday!
I'm going to be doing a little maintenance today. It will likely cause a tiny interruption of service (specifically for www.dreamwidth.org) on the order of 2-3 minutes while some settings propagate. If you're on a journal page, that should still work throughout!
If it doesn't work, the rollback plan is pretty quick, I'm just toggling a setting on how traffic gets to the site. I'll update this post if something goes wrong, but don't anticipate any interruption to be longer than 10 minutes even in a rollback situation.

Anyway, how has your week gone? Please do share your ups (yay!) and downs (boo!), if you're so inclined.

We'll all get through this together, friends. That's the thought I'm leaving you with this week.
