The Briar Patch

 I have been ranting a lot about politics and pandemics recently and I was going to move on from that BUT I do want to get another serious topics off my chest first. MENTAL HEALTH So before I get into it, I have to give you my history with it. In general I think I am fairly healthy, I have spoken to a psychologist more than once. They have told me more than once I need to express more emotion. One did think I had sociopathic tendencies with my "lack" of empathy. He did decide I wasn't but that had a lot of room to improve. So that's me now. 20ish years ago when I felt like I was losing control of my life things were different. I had dropped out of college and was working minimum wage jobs, getting deeper and deeper in debt borrowing money from my grandmother I was in bad shape. A few times in a few weeks I went to the Royal Alex with chest pains. Bad. I don't go to hospitals, in general I don't call in sick to work. That's just not me. However I legit thou

 This is a pure anger blog, so i pre apologize for errors as I am not editing.  Alberta is falling further and further into shit. Old Mr Kenney said we would never see Vaccine passports.

It was / is time to get back to work! (As a side note CERB proves a UBI would be a terrible idea. People are refusing to go back to work

 Its that time again. We need to pick our fearless leader for the next few years. Let me be 100% honest, I love democracy.

Before I start let me give you a bit of a back story on this. I saw a post on social media the other day. It was a map of the Canadian provinces. There was a line drawn between Ontario and the East with the West and the North on the other side. With the comment, until this changes nothing changes. It showed the East having 231 seats and the West and North only having 107. The implication is the East really has the power and out here we really don't matter.

What got me going was someone chiming in this is fine, it is based on the population and that's how it
