Screenshot from a scam email pretending to be from the government but the flag is really, really, hilariously bad.
Screenshot from the beginning of the trailer of The Odyssey, showing lots of blue in the background, and a general blue tint overall. Scholars noticed a few years back that Homer didn’t mention the word “blue” in any of his writings, leading to speculation that our ability to discern the colour may be a more recent development.
Screenshot of an ad. Text reads “Mazda Find Out Event”.

Screenshot from the Coast. Text reads: “Charges have been laid in the case of a couple rescuing their dog after their vehicle was stolen in Pictou County—three people have been arrested for the crime, with the dog back in the possession of it’s owners.”
A photo of a library book. Next to it is a damp kleenex I wiped the book with. The kleenex is filthy, dark grey as if I had wiped the floor.

Cover I did for the WFNS TriCon book. A spaceship called Bluenose V flying through space.
Screenshot of a skeet seen on Bluesky earlier. The text reads: “I think we need to stop the polite description of Israeli ‘Settlers’. They’re a fucking infestation of illegal squatters. Home invaders subsidised and paid for by the Israeli fascist state.”
Screenshot of a tweet from Pete Hegseth (US Secretary of War) saying “Back to the Stone Age.” In reference to the renewed US bombing of Iran.

Trump Truth Social post: “Donald J. Trump • @realDonald Trump The National Trust for Historic Preservation sues me for a Ballroom that is under budget, ahead of schedule, being built at no cost to the Taxpayer, and will be the finest Building of its kind anywhere in the World. I then get sued by them over the renovation of the dilapidated and structurally unsound former Kennedy Center, now, The Trump Kennedy Center (A show of Bipartisan Unity, a Republican and Democrat President!), where all I am doing is fixing, cleaning, running, and "sprucing up" a terribly maintained, for many years, Building, but a Building of potentially great importance. Yet, The National Trust for Historic Preservation, a Radical Left Group of Lunatics whose funding was stopped by Congress in 2005, is not suing the Federal Reserve for a Building which has been decimated and destroyed, inside and out, by an incompetent and possibly corrupt Fed Chairman. The once magnificent Building is BILLIONS over budget, may never be completed, and may never open. All of the beautiful walls inside have been ripped down, never to be built again, but the National "Trust" for Historic Preservation never did anything about it! Or, have they sued on Governor Gavin Newscum's "RAILROAD TO NOWHERE" in California that is BILLIONS over Budget and, probably, will never open or be used. So, the White House Ballroom, and The Trump Kennedy Center, which are under budget, ahead of schedule, and will be among the most magnificent Buildings of their kind anywhere in the World, gets sued by a group that was cut off by Government years ago, but all of the many DISASTERS in our Country are left alone to die. Doesn't make much sense, does it? President DONALD J. TRUMP 1 ReTruth 4 Likes Mar 31, 2026, 2:28 PM”

Facebook post from Prime Minister Carney. Post reads "I spoke with G7 Leaders today on the situation in the Middle East. We condemned Iran’s strikes against civilians and civilian infrastructure, underscoring the need to prevent further regional escalation and the importance of supporting partners in the region, including the Gulf States. We discussed the global economic implications of the crisis, including the impact on rising energy prices, and reiterated our support for today’s International Energy Agency Collective Action decision to make 400 million barrels of oil from their emergency reserves available to address disruptions in oil markets stemming from this conflict. We also underscored the importance of opening secure access through the Strait of Hormuz — Canada supports efforts to safeguard international shipping and ensure freedom of navigation. We condemned the indiscriminate attacks carried out by Hezbollah, and reaffirmed our support for Lebanon, and Lebanese sovereignty and territorial integrity. We will remain in close contact as the situation evolves." Followed by photo.
