The Briar Patch

Start this entry off with something fun and nice. We went down to Victoria for a week for holidays and it was awesome. Beautiful weather considering it is middle of September. Lined up a ton of activities. Whale watching, haunted tours, the sky walk and a bunch more. You can check out my yelp for a ton of reviews. Tavis P. There if you want. I am not going to go into detail but it was a great trip. What I will say is times have changed. Pre 2007 I went with some friends and we stayed in a "hotel" that a friend of a friend down there was the manager of.

Wokeness is a disease. I have 0 problem stating the truth. The fact is the meaning if you google is alert to injustice, especially racism. Now that in itself is GOOD!

The very fact that freedom lets it exist to assault other peoples freedoms is ironic. Also this might not be a popular thing to say but people don't have to accept others. People should be allowed to believe what they want. NOW saying that doesn't me...
