    I'm calling it emergency climate tourism.

    Edit: A couple hotels requested tourism cancelations so they could house BC's displaced evacuees.
    I was supposed to be in Osoyoos this week with extended family. We all cancelled, not just because of the air quality and risk, but because it didn’t seem right to take up a hotel room right now when so many people have evacuated and need a place to stay. I read that 100 firefighters had been billeted at the hotel we were supposed to be at.

    I feel ya. I evacuated willingly because of the smoke last week. The lack of sky was getting me down. The poisoned air inside and the poisonous air outside was killing me.
     Glad I found a bit of blue... wishing ya well  Pap.
    Thank you. Stay safe Tish!

    It’s happened before, but it seems like these times have brought out in many ~

    Self-righteousness 
    Ridiculous accusations
    Sweeping generalizations 

    What else, what else…

    Oversensitivity
    Willful deafness
    Silly rationalizations
    Misplaced anger
    Minding others’ business
    Hypocrisy
    Greed

    And people want “peace” :lol:

    After I wrote that, I took a long walk while listening to Blind Melon’s self-titled album. It’s cool and cloudy here, though still —depending on one’s perspective-“ — a lovely little city. All in all, a peaceful if not introspective outing.

    It all made me realize I shouldn’t let the fray distract what’s truly important to me :)

    The Supreme fucking hypocrisy of all the right wing males waving around the "My Body My Choice" signs at their idiot rallies. Incites a murderous ragey feeling deep inside.....
    Anything you lose from being honest
    You never really had to begin with.


    Sometimes it's not the song that makes you emotional it's the people and things that come to your mind when you hear it.

    “There is nothing funny about domestic abuse…except when a really tiny guy does it.”

    Watching the first ep of the Sports Show with Norm MacDonald. He was doing a story about a jockey :lol: Goddammit I loved him. Fucking cancer.
