Fire in the straw stack early this morning (oops), an Indian/Indigenous band put the farm and the ostriches under their protection last night and issued a cease and desist letter to the authorities and now the supreme court has issued the stay. They are safe again for a time. Well done people, united we can do it.

Trying to buy replacement lightbulbs (incandescent) for wall sconces that I bought from Wayfair ... note they came with incandescent lightbulbs that's one reason why I bought the sconces. Turns out Wayfair doesn't sell replacement bulbs for this light fixture!!! Un-bloody-real. No mention of that fact when I bought the sconces. Now I have to find replacements elsewhere - and when I do I'll be buying all of them!
Seriously...I am so tired of mandates and top-down agendas. The PTB are always trying to fix a nonexistent problem with a stupid solution that causes it's own problems.
Leave me alone, let the free market dictate results, and while we're at it don't even mandate seatbelts!!
I'm so done. It's tiring trying to be a free citizen with data to back it up.
Rant over. Thank you for your attention to this matter. 😉

“The obligation about to be imposed upon Western Canada’s energy sector to produce and transport ‘decarbonized’ oil will place it under a material – if not ruinous – regulatory and financial handicap in world markets. Meanwhile, Eastern Canadian refiners would be allowed to continue importing oil from the United States and offshore jurisdictions.
This might cause one to wonder whether Smith’s musings about a “grand bargain” are anything more than a back-of-the-envelope guesstimate conjuring a kind of political unicorn, a federally-approved export pipeline carrying hypothetically decarbonized oil. And this brings us to the second major question, one that stabs at the heart of the economies of Alberta and Saskatchewan: why is it important that Western Canada’s oil be “decarbonized” at all, when that requirement is not imposed upon oil imported to Eastern Canada, much of it from countries...
