My employer tosses me table scraps while they devour a ten course meal, and then they say they can't afford anything. Especially not decent raises. They act like they are doing me a favour by letting me work for them. Like I should be grateful for getting anything at all in return for it. They slather us with platitudes occasionally, or reward and `
At the end of 2019 I could barely run even a minute to catch a bus. Then at the beginning of October 2021, less than 2 years later, I completed my first marathon. I say that I completed, and not ran my first full (42.2k) marathon. I was doing more walking than running after`
Going by what we humans have learned about the universe so far; it seems impossible that earth could be the only planet with sentient creatures.

How is vaporizing innocent human beings, and setting the sky on fire going to solve anything? Why is this an option?
I am finding at 50+ that fitness is more of a necessity than what it used to be. When I was younger, and into fitness, it was more so I could look better. Getting healthier and feeling better was sort of a side effect. Now that I'm older it has turned around. I am doing it to be healthier and feel better, and a side effect is that my body has changed.
This is just locker room talk. Just me being me, you know. No big deal. Dedicated to nothing and no one. Toppled off the edge of sanity. Plunging headfirst into the abyss of absurdity.
Hardy har, the department of kidnapping, murder and lies. While hundreds of millions of people could barely afford food, they were spending over twenty million dollars on steak and lobster,
The census occurs in Canada every five years no matter who is in the government at census time, or what they have been up to. So weird to see stories of people using it as a way to protest. I thought that participating was common sense. I suppose each time it comes around there is
