The Mary Rose (sank 1545) and LGBTQ+ etc., nit combs etc.

I think we’re beyond peak crazy.

“A circular, reflective surface would have sat within this beech frame. This mirror would have been considered a luxury item on the Mary Rose. Looking at your own reflection in a mirror can bring up lots of emotions for both straight and LGBTQ+ people. For Queer people, we may experience a strong feeling of gender dysphoria when we look into a mirror, a feeling of distress caused by our reflection conflicting with our own gender identities. On the other hand, we may experience gender euphoria when looking in a mirror, when how we feel on the inside matches our reflection.” 

“…These nit combs would have been mainly used by the men to remove nits from their hair… However, for many Queer people today, how we wear our hair is a central pillar of our identity. Today, hairstyles are often heavily gendered, following the gender norm…”

Oberlin College in ANOTHER legal battle over defaming bakery: Woke school now sues insurance companies for refusing to cover $37 million it had to pay family business over false racism claims

Oberlin College has sued four of its insurance providers to make them cover the multimillion-dollar judgment that Gibson’s Bakery won against the school in 2019 over false claims of racism.

The wealthy liberal arts college in northern Ohio filed a suit in April against four insurance companies, saying they wrongfully refused ‘to honor promises they made in their respective policies to protect’ the school.

Oberlin seeks the money to cover the $36.6 million it paid out last year to Gibson’s Bakery.

Hunter Biden’s longtime business partner visited the Obama WH, VP residence more than previously known

FIRST ON FOX: Hunter Biden’s former friend and longtime business partner visited the Obama White House and then-Vice President Joe Biden’s residence dozens of times between 2009 and 2016, likely to make him the next target of the House Oversight Committee’s investigation into Hunter Biden’s foreign business dealings.

Fox News Digital previously reported that Eric Schwerin had visited the White House and vice presidential residence at Observatory Circle at least 27 times during Joe Biden’s vice presidency. However, a more extensive review found that Schwerin actually made at least 36 visits during that same time frame.

Cory Morgan: Environmentalists Should Be Lauding Alberta’s Temporary Pause on Renewable Projects

Alberta’s six-month pause on approvals for large renewable energy projects appeared to come out of left field. Alberta has been considered Canada’s leader in wind and solar projects as developments spring up around the province. Billions of dollars are being invested, thousands of jobs created, and emissions ostensibly are being reduced.

Why on earth would the government suddenly tap the brakes on such a lucrative field?

‘Numb to it’: Canadian students are keeping quiet about hate and discrimination they experience on their university and college campuses

Nati Pressmann had just begun her sophomore year at Queen’s University in October 2022 when there was a string of hateful vandalism targeting Jewish students.

Someone drew a swastika on a fridge in a campus building where several Jewish students lived.

No villains are named so it must be those damn extreme-right high achieving privileged white supremacist anti-Semitic NAZI university students.

B.C. case exposes corporate ties to Chinese criminal underworld

The 12 apartments above a sporting goods shop in Vancouver appear unremarkable, blending in with thousands of others in the beachfront Kitsilano neighbourhood.

But the building’s bland, beige exterior hides a dark secret.

Authorities say the apartments are a key part of a money laundering operation run by Paul King Jin, an alleged member of a Chinese organized crime group, and a self-described loan shark.

Islamic State terrorist judged a ‘danger to the public’ three months ago will be released from jail in DAYS because the government has no power to extend his sentence

A British Islamic State terrorist will have to be released in days despite still being considered a potential risk to the public.

Mohammed Uddin, then 30, was jailed in 2016 for seven-years after pleading guilty to trying to join ISIS in Syria.

The former security guard, from Barking in Essex, now aged 37, traveled through Turkey to join his terror heroes in Syria but then tried to sneak back into Britain when he became disillusioned with jihadi life and was arrested.

Moammar Gadhafi stashed billions in Canadian bank accounts, former diplomat says

Billions of dollars belonging to former Libyan dictator Moammar Gadhafi are sitting in Canadian bank accounts almost 12 years after his death, says a former diplomat.

Fathi Baja, who served as Libya’s ambassador to Canada from 2013 to 2017, said he kept confidential documents containing financial details about the cash stockpile after he was fired from his envoy job in Ottawa. Citing the risk of corruption, Mr. Baja said he plans to safeguard those financial records in Libya until the North African country has a democratically elected government.

Away back in 2010 this blog uncovered a real estate partnership between Edmonton’s “Canada’s Islamic Society” and Gadafhi’s WICS (World Islamic Call Society)

WICS had it’s charitable status revoked in 2011 but Gaddafi’s local partners and their affiliates soldier on and in fact  received tax payer dollars for security enhancements of their facilities under the Security Infrastructure Program for “Communities at Risk.”

In the 1st quarter of 2010 the Arabian Muslim Association and the Edmonton Islamic Academy received $69,008.00 & $30,096.00 respectively under the federal government’s “Communities at Risk: Security Infrastructure Pilot (SIP) Program.”

France launches anti-sexism beach patrols that women can flag if they are being harassed

Marseille has launched anti-sexism beach patrols that allow women to flag up if they are being harassed on a free phone app.

Women on beaches around the city can use Safer Plage, which presents them with three options: “I’m being bothered”, “I’m being harassed” or “I’m in danger”.

A pair of beach mediators is then dispatched to the trouble spot – one to reassure the woman, the other to tackle the harasser.

An exodus from Canada’s priciest provinces is driving many to plant ‘New Roots’

Things to come? Again?

“Alberta is calling,” read the ads plastered across Toronto’s transit system.

“Find things you’d never expect,” they coax, “like an affordable house.”

The advertisements, a blunt recruitment initiative from the Alberta government launched last fall, tout ample job opportunities alongside comparisons of housing prices between Toronto and Calgary.

Ottawa Police Wiretapped ‘Sudden Infant Deaths’ Detective Helen Grus – And Her Family

“The wiretap was calculated to intimidate Detective Grus and her family – but all these ‘Urgent Emergency’ wiretaps during the Freedom Convoy backfired.

 The wiretaps served only to galvanize Canadians and strengthen the legitimacy of protest against governments that overstepped their authority and power.”
