Trudeau is pretending in his response to a reporter that the U.S. Executive Order is actually about fentanyl trafficking, and if they somehow figure that out then trade relations will go back to normal. I'm sure he doesn't truly believe that but is trying to be diplomatic as possible under the circumstances.

Discussion posts in my Information Systems capstone class are so fun because they give me the opportunity to reminisce on system and design failures I made many jobs ago but with the salve of time and distance to make them fun teaching moments instead of hours of late night regret.

In the car the other day my son was working his way through the concept of war.
"I would never go to war with anyone," he said, "war is stupid I don't know why anyone would do it."
I had to explain to him that it will always be hard to understand because he's never been cold, hungry, or powerless.

In a week, the actual race and experience of the civilian and military pilots and air traffic controllers won't even be talked about. The framing has already been set that a woman or minority is at fault, and emotions rule the narrative of something that ought to be a somber and blame-free deliberative process of figuring out a root cause and making sure an accident like this doesn't happen again.

A little early morning sharing: one of the last classes for my undergraduate degree was a communications requirements, so I chose Journalism 201. One of the requirements was to attend a local government meeting and take notes and write an article in inverted pyramid AP style. After years of free-form blogging and online writing, the structure was really fun to work in. I really enjoyed the process and wanted to share out my first draft: https://vees.net/local/pa/montco/lowersalford/2025-01-06-meeting/
