Saturday Snap – Is This How One Creates An Activist?

Like pretty much everyone these days, Shea and I are noticing that everything seems more expensive – gas, groceries, dining out, etc. etc. etc. If we’re feeling this way while being in a fairly good financial position with good professional jobs, good incomes and a lot of financial luck over the years in various ways […]

Friday Fun Link – Biggest Global Industries By Revenue (2025)

Yes, I was inspired to look up the world’s biggest global industries after seeing a reference to the global reach of the oil & gas sector which isn’t the biggest but has the biggest impact on every other sector in the TV show, “The Landman”. Although its set in Texas and obviously a lot more […]

I’m Not A Fan of Hypocrisy (So What Am I Hypocritical About?)

On National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, I’m thinking about some of the conflicted views I hold. For instance, my dad recently completed the sale of our family farm that was previously Indigenous land. I have already and will continue to benefit greatly from the sale of that land while Indigenous people continue to fight […]
