Good morning! May the Great Spirit bless you 🙏

I am late getting started this morning, not ill or anything like that; body functions were normal, except for that terrible need to be horizontal. I had begun to make the morning coffee, then just could not concentrate on what I was doing, so I went back to lie down and have a couple more hours' rest. It seems to all boil down to the GERDS. I researched some more on the topic and discovered that both GERD and when I had the appendix misery are a combination, which can bring on all kinds of wonderful torture-chamber-level type pain; literally, I was writhing with pain. One source of pain is gone, the appendix, but the GERD still lingers.

TODAY'S DISCUSSION:

My discussion for this part of the news is about my personal health and how grateful I am to have received the medical care I did; they were all Angels, thank you all - Nurses, Staff, and Doctors at St. Catharine's Hospital. YOU ARE EARTH ANGELS.

I would like to EMPHASIZE HERE THE IMPORTANCE OF YOUR PERSONAL HEALTH CARE AND MAINTENANCE.

So it has been for me. I have been doing much better, at least the discomfort from the Gerd is not as excruciating, but now it's my teeth, and THEY WILL BE GONE, even if I have to use my Colt 45 to remove them. I am seeing the dentist at the end of October. I am in tears at the anticipation of leaving all this torture chamber 👺🚺 stuff behind me. I have a low to no tolerance for pain, especially with no meat on my bones for protection against them, just a bump feels like I got hit by a bus. Lesson number one:

DON'T MESS AROUND WITH MISERABLE TOOTH ACHES OR GERD, and attend to ANY OTHER MISERY AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. Don't wait unnecessarily; if it persists in making return visits, it won't go away by itself.

I'm only as wise as the amount of bruising I have incurred just walking through this maze that doesn't make sense until after you already experience it. The question is, did you learn something from it? The objective should be to learn how to see around corners from previous experience and knowledge before engaging in any action with the beast that is not yet in sight. Nothing is as simple to deal with as it may seem at first glance. See it in the long view through a wide lens.

And if you are sensitive to others' feelings, you are empathetic. In that case, you can feel both the negative and the positive polarity on the human emotions and intentions, the inner emotion detecting machine, an IEDM, Bugs, "Eeeeep, what's up doc?" Hey Doc! Better get the IEDM machine out!

EMPATHY A SIGN OF WEAKNESS, EH! YOU CANNOT DESTROY EMPATHY. You cannot destroy energy.

Science says:

Energy can neither be created nor destroyed, but only transformed from one form to another, a fundamental principle known as the law of conservation of energy or the first law of thermodynamics. When energy appears to be lost, it is actually converted into a different, often less useful, form, such as heat, rather than disappearing entirely.

Amazing eh! What other forms?

I wonder just how many of you are even awake or aware that you are no longer in Cansas, Man! If you are not aware that America no longer exists. It's putting itself in exile. The beast will not relent; it will bring down every other one of its victims with it. YOU SHOULD BE AWARE that even if you're Canadian, you could wake up in the morning to a totalitarian regime knocking at your door. Your loss, I'm 80 years old, what have I got to lose? VIVE LAS RESISTANCE ✊

The trope of ‘liberal media’ is finally dead

New York

—

Growing up in Missouri, the home state of Rush Limbaugh, I often heard the word “media” spoken with a fair bit of derision, sandwiched by the words “liberal” and “bias.” It was an accusation that crystallized as a capital-T Truth for much of the country as Fox News emerged in the late 90s, wielding it as a cudgel to reinforce the network’s conservative credentials. The perception of “liberal” media was always exaggerated, and often unfair, rooted partly in the fact that most mass media giants were headquartered in Democratic strongholds like DC and New York (where, of course, Fox is also based.)

But President Donald Trump’s MAGA coalition are done crying about perceived bias. Even “fake news” has lost its bite. In his second term, Trump is taking his complaints straight to the source, siccing lawyers and regulators on outlets he sees as a threat (the New York Times, NPR), or allowing his billionaire supporters to wrest control of those he thinks he can jostle into compliance...

Charlie Kirk DM’d me before he was murdered. Here’s what he said

The day before he was horrifically murdered, Charlie Kirk sent me a direct message on X.

He and I had been sparring publicly over the killing of a Ukrainian refugee and its relationship to race. He said the gruesome killing of a White woman by a Black man was motivated solely by anti-White hatred. I denounced those comments on CNN as unfounded. He went on TV and denounced MY denunciation. Then he unleashed a firehose of tweets, challenging my argument.

Kirk’s pushback sparked an online torrent of racist death threats against me, the likes of which I have rarely seen...

Researchers turn to AI for help fighting superbugs

MIT study uses AI model to identify new candidates against gonorrhea, MRSA

This story is part of CBC Health's Second Opinion, a weekly analysis of health and medical science news emailed to subscribers on Saturday mornings.

Vulnerable patients with superbugs need antibiotics to work better, say doctors and scientists who are encouraged by an AI tool that invented new chemicals to treat drug-resistant gonorrhea and MRSA. In the arms race against drug-resistant superbugs, humans have been falling behind. Infections from antibiotic-resistant strains kill more than 1.2 million people a year globally, leading to an "urgent global health threat," according to the World Health Organization.

While the new compounds still need to go through clinical trials to check for safety and efficacy and be approved by regulators like Health Canada to be used by patients, they have shown potential against the drug-resistant strains in laboratory tests on mice.

Carney's 'Buy Canadian' policy expected to be fully in place next year: source

Policy is one of several supports for tariff-impacted sectors announced this month

Ottawa's "Buy Canadian" policy will be featured in the fall federal budget and is expected to be fully in place by next spring, according to a senior federal source.

The source said initial elements of the policy should be in effect by as early as November, and will be fully applied in 2026. The source, who CBC News has agreed not to name because they were not authorized to share their knowledge of the government's plans, added that details in the November budget would be key for moving the policy forward. They said they expect new funding to be attached.

Good morning! May the Great Spirit bless you 🙏

It's kind of a cloudy morning, but according to the weather report, the sun will return; it is supposed to be in the low 70s and mid-60s all the way to mid-October. It is just nice to be among the living and without too many crevices in the hull of this rickety ship. I am grateful for that.

TODAY'S DISCUSSION:

CHANGING THE SYSTEM

It is so sad and strange to realise that America, the America all countries used to look up to with respect, can just be reduced into a pile of useless nonsense Nazi 💩 overnight.

I give credit to the folks I met on Indigo Adults around 2000. They were right about the concentration camps, and taking down the system of government, a government is an institution.

- Google Search -

A system of government is an institution established to provide structure and authority for a society by creating, enforcing, and interpreting laws, managing public services, and resolving disputes. It comprises various branches, including the legislative, executive, and judicial branches, which collectively ensure order, provide essential services, and act on behalf of the population's interests.

Even a fascist regime needs to have rules, laws, and order, but they are interchangeable at the whim of the big cheese in charge. Otherwise, you have chaos. There would be no coherent reasoning, back to the pirate days, America becomes the port of Pirates.

I do admit that the previous government had its warts, but now this entire government is nothing but a big, malignant wart with "what government?" Find one that didn't flunk recess—turning the whole country into a big pile of orange stench. Thus, THE DUNCE BRIGADE 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫 and their Gestapo Cockroaches. 🪳🪳🪳🪳

The government needed only to adjust itself by getting rid of the real thieves, the corporate-type thieves sucking off Mama Fed's mammary glands. It's not the entire Government workforce that's causing the fraud, waste, and abuse. It's so many corporations and business sectors getting special treatment paid for by taxpayer dollars, like Big Oil, pharmaceuticals, airlines, and other "special interest groups." Now it's going to need a complete engine overhaul just because you dropped the wrench in the gears, "We, The People boo-hooed!" Now it's time to get busy and unboo-hoo the boo-boo.😁

This isn't going to go away. Government leaders, corporate heads, and elected officials are just going to continue bending the knee to a demented, insane mind. It's time to form a New Party to oppose further destruction of America before it sinks further into the hole. That is my opinion only. THEN ONE MORNING, YOU WAKE UP TO TOTALITARIANISM.

"Please do me a favor and prove my gut feeling wrong!"

What happened behind the scenes that led to Kimmel suspension

The decision to yank Jimmy Kimmel’s show off the air wasn’t quite as rash as one might think. The issue had been brewing all week throughout the executive ranks at Disney and ABC — ever since Kimmel made comments during his Monday night monologue about Charlie Kirk’s suspected killer and, as he called Trump’s supporters, the “MAGA gang.”

Kimmel’s remarks Monday attracted ire from the critics on the right, which put it on Disney’s radar. On Tuesday’s show, Kimmel doubled down, saying,

“Many in MAGA-land are working very hard to capitalize on the murder of Charlie Kirk.”

But it wasn’t until Wednesday afternoon, after FCC chair Brendan Carr went onto a conservative podcast and threatened to pull ABC affiliate broadcast licenses, that the matter really escalated. Then Nexstar — the station group which airs “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” in approximately two dozen markets — announced they would not air the show.

Supreme Court decision fuels legal immigrants’ fears they’ll be stopped by law enforcement

Cesar, a green card holder and student at Washington, DC’s Georgetown University, never used to think he needed to carry proof that he was allowed to be in the United States.

But that changed last week, when the Supreme Court cleared the way for a person’s ethnicity to be at least a partial factor behind immigration stops by law enforcement. “Now I have to carry it all the time,” he says. “And that is very scary, because if I lose it, that’s a whole other process, fees, and consequences,” said Cesar, who spoke to CNN on the condition that only his first name be used.

Since the beginning of President Donald Trump’s second term, immigration-advocacy groups have recommended that migrants, green-card holders and non-White US citizens carry their documents as an added protection against being errantly caught up in his immigration sweeps.

Intel officials are split on whether Russia deliberately flew drones into Poland but agree Putin is getting more aggressive

In the week since NATO fighter jets scrambled to shoot down multiple Russian drones that had crossed into alliance airspace in Poland, US and Western intelligence officials have been unable to determine whether the incursion was accidental or an intentional effort by Russia to probe Western air defenses and gauge NATO’s response.

Officials cautioned that either way, the episode still represents a worrying signal that the Kremlin’s willingness to pique NATO — perhaps at the risk of escalating the conflict — has grown.

“It doesn’t mean it’s not dangerous,” a senior Western intelligence official said. “There’s certainly something that has changed in the way that the Kremlin is thinking about their risk tolerance on targeting.” ...

Canadians are taking a big step back from the U.S. — and here's the data to prove it

Travel is cratering, exports are down and consumer habits have been upended

In the weeks after U.S. President Donald Trump sparked a trade war with his punishing tariffs, Prime Minister Mark Carney said Canada's "old relationship" with the U.S. would be "over" soon — and now there's some hard evidence that is indeed happening. CBC News reviewed datasets on travel, trade, shopping, and culture, and all of them paint a similar picture: Canadians are taking a big step back from the U.S.

Months after Trump launched his trade broadside and prompted a national backlash with his 51st state taunts, the Canadian travel boycott is still in full swing with many shunning cross-border travel, prompting airlines to cancel U.S. flights and curb capacity...

Good morning! May the Great Spirit bless you 🙏

Well, it is a good morning weather-wise. This high-pressure system seems to be standing stationary right over us, which I don't mind. I am not looking forward to the next few weeks. It's that time of year again, with too many doctors' appointments. At this time of year, fall, I don't trust those little rooms at the doctor's office. I got sick three times going there during bug season. I would have been better off not seeing the doctor. Why, to get sick? Today I am seeing the dentist to get my teeth checked and get that done before bug season. Unless there is something I missed, I will be getting my flu and COVID shot, then see only my doctor in late November, THAT'S THE SCARY ONE. If the bug count goes nuts, then the doc will just have to wait.

I am only mentioning this to remind you all, DON'T LISTEN TO THE FAKE NEWS AND THE ANTI-VAX DUNCES. Because that's precisely what they are, DUNCES! The hell with those cockroaches; the shots are, by some estimates, as high as 93% effective against symptomatic infection and over 98% against severe disease.

Without the shot, you have a 98% higher risk of getting the bug than the person who got the shot. Take a moment and do the math and research on Google!

BEWARE CANADIANS, I PLEAD, Please Be Smart, don't drink the same KoolAid they drink south of the border. Don't be a dunce.

They, Trump's Feds, are talking about shutting down all television and radio broadcasts, CNN, MSNBC, and a couple of other primary news sources that lean to the left. Any media outlet that speaks against Kink Orange Pus Bag, in Chief Bent Feather in Shitty in Diapers, and his Cockroach Brigade! I SAY, may they all take a "loooong" walk off the edge of a very steep and deep precipice that falls into a vortex and end up on planet BizarroMerica, the Twilight Zone, or how about getting abducted by Butt-kissing aliens and we never hear from them again.

Who will be next, the Social Networks? But of course, the Social Networks will continue publishing their Nazi agenda, and also attempt to arrest the rest of us who don't conform to them on the internet.

That's going to be quite an enterprise, especially across the border. Even if Elon were to shut down all of his Starlinks going to other unwanted countries, those countries already have an internet system that works quite well with cell towers, and they are still erecting better, stronger, and higher towers in Canada. Sometime within the next couple of months, Canada will also be joining the space race by putting their own satellites in orbit.

I don't pray for anything bad to happen to anyone, even the really hateful ones. I may pause for a while, let out a small litany of both real and homemade cuss words, and I may imagine myself twisting chicken necks.

I cannot wish anyone harm, but I can certainly pray for the Great Spirit to be the judge and expedite whatever Karma the Architect of this Universe has in store for him. The horse's arse ain't a goin' to live forever, and I am around the same age he is, but at least I have a brain that is fully functioning, the mechanical parts that are getting worn out.

I wonder when they will come out with brain transplants. Or what about growing a new brain from a stem cell? MY GOODNESS, send all the Trump duplicate experiments to Pluto, PLEASE! WITHOUT SPACE SUITS!

That will be it for me for today. My stomach is acting up, so I will go on with the news and hopefully rest a little before the dentist appointment.

Trump's anti-media blitz that led to Kimmel's suspension is straight from a European strongman's playbook

Weaponize the levers of government for partisan political gain. Pressure privately owned media companies to toe the party line. Punish the owners who resist and reward the ones who acquiesce.

That's how Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán consolidated control of the media in his country, according to scholars who witnessed Hungary's democratic backsliding firsthand. President Trump and his allies appear to be running the same playbook against media outlets in the US.

Using legal maneuvers, financial incentives, and public pressure campaigns, Trump is persuading companies to make changes that benefit his party and bolster his own power. Wednesday's decision by Disney's ABC to sideline Jimmy Kimmel is the latest example.

Here are the Supreme Court precedents that targeting ‘hate speech’ would violate

Attorney General Pam Bondi’s opaque threat to target “hate speech” following the assassination of conservative crusader Charlie Kirk would, if carried out, run up against a litany of Supreme Court precedent on an issue that has largely united conservative and liberal justices for decades.

Bondi has drawn bipartisan and biting criticism this week for suggesting that there is a distinction between free speech and hate speech, an idea that the Supreme Court has repeatedly rejected. And her subsequent attempts to walk back that statement have also bumped up against landmark rulings – some longstanding and others more recent – from the high court. “Freedom of speech is sacred in our country, and we will never impede upon that right,” Bondi said in a statement to Axios after her initial remarks on a podcast Monday caused an uproar. “My intention was to speak about threats of violence that individuals incite against others.”

The attorney general’s warnings, which initially included vague threats of prosecution, are part of a broader push by President Donald Trump to use the anger over Kirk’s brutal killing to punish the left...

The second is to develop a bilateral trading relationship with Mexico that operates independently of the whims of the White House, and can survive whatever fate lies in store for the Canada-U.S.-Mexico Agreement (CUSMA) when its renegotiation finally happens...

TODAY'S DISCUSSION:

OUR ANCESTORS RETURN?

_*I came across a posted article this morning with a similar topic on another social network. After doing a little research, I came up with the latest report from the Webb Space Telescope Team about any recent unusual discovery *_

**The James Webb Just Found Something Extremely Bizarre About the Mysterious Object Headed Into Our Inner Solar System**

Our solar system's latest and only third known interstellar visitor is becoming more fascinating by the week.

Spotted in early July, the object, dubbed 3I/ATLAS, is widely believed to be a comet. It's traveling so fast that one look at its speed was enough to let astronomers know that it came from untold thousands of light-years away. And it may even be older than our entire solar system.

Now, the James Webb Space Telescope has turned its mighty eye — specifically, its Near-Infrared Spectrograph instrument — towards the object, furnishing us with more details about its size and composition to back up what other observatories, including the Hubble Space Telescope, had found previously.

These findings were published in a new study by researchers at NASA and a host of universities, currently awaiting peer review. And one detail in it is especially tantalizing, as highlighted by Space.com: 3I/ATLAS has among the highest ever ratio of carbon dioxide to water ever observed in a comet. And it also appears that the ice entombed within the comet may have been exposed to higher levels of radiation than comes from our solar system, the authors found...

_3I/ATLAS is expected to reach perihelion, its closest distance to the Sun, around October 30 this year, coming within Mars' orbit. Along the way, it'll travel behind the Sun from our perspective — meaning for a while, it'll be impossible to observe._

My personal belief is that I do not doubt the existence of life out there, or at least a symbiotic being with human-like qualities, or any being with self-identity, whether it be in a physical form or an energy form. I believe it depends on the level of evolution. Where in the universe? Ahead or back? Maybe they have been here before, and they will return. Or maybe never left, you know. Perhaps these advanced species, like every dutiful scientist, need to go back to check on that petri dish in sector 22 parsec 6 in the Alpha Quadrent, third rocky planet of the Sol sector in Vector 26 region, MAM!.

This is just one of many possible scenarios in the Infinite Potentialities. I like this one, and I would love actually to see CONTACT DAY! I believe that will change the entire course of humanity's evolutionary progress.

We need to be ready to receive the enlightenment, not fight it.

Define alien.

And that is about it for me for today; It would more than greatly please me if I had a taker on a conversation about ARE OUR ANCESTORS REALLY RETURNING? Never ask is there's life out there? I can't help but feel more convinced over time that there is more life out there than there is here on Earth, and they have been observing us for a very long time, possibly even living among us, watching us like a specimen in a petri dish. I believe that is all part of the way the entire universal system is meant to evolve in—the evolution of the Universal Cerebral Cortex.

Bank of Canada lowers interest rate to 2.5% in first cut since March

Most economists felt cut was a done deal, especially after low-drama inflation report*

The Bank of Canada lowered its key interest rate by 25 basis points to 2.5 per cent on Wednesday, marking its first cut since March, as the central bank moves to stimulate a weakened economy. The job market has softened, inflation excluding gas has eased, and the federal government's removal of retaliatory tariffs against the U.S. has reduced some "upside risk" to future inflation, governor Tiff Macklem noted in his opening remarks during a news conference in Ottawa.

"Considerable uncertainty remains. But with a weaker economy and less upside risk to inflation, Governing Council judged that a reduction in the policy rate was appropriate to better balance the risks going forward," he said.

*I feel conflicted about sharing my fear and panic when my job is to report facts without bias*

The sun was beating down mercilessly on my back as I bent over my work, making it impossible to ignore the cloying heat. I was in rubber boots and grungy clothes, standing in a Gaspésie salt marsh in eastern Quebec to conduct my master's research. I gave up on my measurements and slowly sat down on my haunches, placing my arms in the putrid marsh up to my elbows.

The water should have felt cooling. But our phones showed the air temperature was 32 C, 43 with humidity; on par with the hottest temperature ever recorded in the region. I wiped the sweat off my forehead with my mucky palm but there was nowhere in the shadeless marsh to hide from the oppressive heat.

_I was aware that we were in an unprecedented wildfire season, but it's human nature to compartmentalize individual, discrete events into anomalies, and that's exactly what happened to me._

TREE HOUSE NEWS 🏡

Land of Whispering Pines 🌲

Good morning! May the Great Spirit bless you 🙏

It's another great sunny morning here at the Tree House, lovely day, couldn't ask for better, but I still can't chase that ominous feeling inside, Anxiety over the dentist and my damaged teeth, or all this Trump 💩

I do believe that Trump's insanity cult is doing an excellent job at letting their poison slowly seep into our neuropathway to the cerebral cortex and turning the human race into a mass of paranoid insanity that will lead to PANIC. This poison has to have a climax; all things in nature do, it's part of the Karma thing.

TODAY'S DISCUSSION

EUGENICS

Last night, they, Trump's Feds, canceled the Cancer Research*

Cancer research is a waste of time and money, "Don't You Know? 😝🤪

The Cancer Research team was doing great, with an overall 5-year survival rate of 69% for diagnoses between 2014 and 2020. before a Mr. Orange Wallet Chocker came along.

What do Trump's NIH restrictions mean for cancer research?

Indefinite suspensions of research-grant reviews by the Trump administration could impact funding for cancer research...

Donald Trump Wants to Make Eugenics Great Again. Let's Not

Trump's anti-immigrant good-gene-bad-gene screeds are nothing but factless eugenics for a new era

Eugenicists divided the world into the “fit” and the “unfit” and believed a nation flourished only when it incentivized more breeding among people thought to have genes for leadership and honesty, and less breeding among people who had genes for low intelligence (“feeblemindedness” in eugenics parlance) and depravity...

Those who say the value of human life cannot be measured may not know one of the dark secrets of economics....

This is what happens when a vicious, venomous, viper, reptilian, psychopathic offspring of the "Third Right!" - Kiss My Butt, to grow up to be this creepy Jabba the Hutt with an attitude gets loose. Now every time I tune into the National News, all I hear is more D.T.-bull-💩

Often when I'm done posting the news, I check back, and the old news hasn't even cooled yet when another pile of fresh hot steamy horse 💩has once again been dumped on the airways.

Insanity gone wild, like the circus clown gone coo coo in the driver's seat, zipping around with a city bus OUT OF CONTROL headed right for the PRECIPICE, and I do hope his dunce brigade follow him to the bottom. Like in the movies, it reminds me especially of a particular one, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest. Except it's for real this time around.

Where do we go? OH ME! OH MY GOODNESS GRACIOUS! The walls are shaking, and the floor is wavin,' lights flashing on and off, whistles, sirens, or was that a sirene, maybe they come to take me away, they are they are! Where do we go, man! Amigo, Friend, Amie, Niwiijiwaagan, and Oginalii; ye there. Those are about all the languages ​​I personally know enough to get in trouble in a conversation. So for now, Goodbye, Aurevoire, Goodbye, Giga-waabamin, Donadagohvi.

I may have to learn these two in Russian:

Comrade and Пока (Poka) then salute and get your butt out of there.

Where Things Stand:

• Israel says it has launched a ground incursion into Gaza City, escalating its war in defiance of international condemnation and backlash from the families of hostages held by Hamas.
