-Hair shampoo commercial with honey. Uh, what happens to the hair in summer when wasps and bees are active?
-a Canadian refinery plans to put a pipeline under the Great Lakes, so when it leaks–as these things always do–it can pollute the lakes with abandon.
-pandemic is on high alert in Europe and still out of control in the States. Albertans can’t wait to get on international flights and cross the border (mainly snowbirds), and they’re griping about paying a test fee before returning home and potentially bringing home US Covid?! And Trudeau is considering whether to drop the test?!
-crazy GOPer Gosar makes a video in which he stabs A.O.C. then threatens Biden with the knives. Nobody does anything. Not McConnell, the GOP head of the House, Pelosi, Schumer, Biden, or Merrick Garland, the useless Attorney General. Normal behavior apparently setting a dangerous precedent and model for more American kooks and nutso GOPers.
-Travis Scott keeps performing for half an hour as he watches fans getting crushed and trampled to death in front of the stage. A father’s 9-year-old son (what’s he doing in a riot scene near the stage front listening to a vile, foul-mouthed rapper?! This is necessary, appropriate, edifying entertainment for one’s own son?!) fell off his Dad’s shoulders and was repeatedly trampled underfoot by the mob and is now near death. Where the hell is any common sense in either choice of action?
