My thoughts exactly. So I clicked, then hit paywall. Could be anything. Aliens, anomalies on the bottom of the ocean, some new virus. Probably good thing it was behind a paywall as it was probably some mood-killing bad news. Though not sure anything could wipe the smile off my face right now. Nothing short of a nuke anyway and then I’d still be smiling in spirit. I mixed alcohol with various drugs last weekend and as a result died and went to heaven. It has me worried though. If there’s one thing I “believe” in it’s universal balance. Hardcoded in this simulation. Peaks are balanced by lows. Ugh… I need some sort of delayed periodic payment option.

Clicked what? If you have to pay to see it? Just saying. Where's the link?

Some local news site. Almost all the former regular physical newspapers that now have an online edition put many of their articles behind a paywall, so you have to subscribe and pay to read more than the headlines. One of them mocks this in a commercial where a couple at the dinner table does nothing but exchange catchy news headlines without having a clue what it’s really about. It’s all clickbait nowadays.

The only thing I've given in to is 'no ads' because they're getting tricky to the point of obnoxious..I listen to meditation from around the world..hooked on Dudak and Tibetan Bowls with rain- it helps me to sleep through the night.

Nothing worse than an ad during the music..before, I get it..but during meditation? It's cruel tbh because you're in your spot then the blare of an ad.

I already donate plenty to Bezos through Amazon..i'm not paying for WaPo..I got 3 months for $3 on something yesterday.

You shouldn't have to pay for the news and they've all gone to version of paywall.

AP and Reuters are still free last I looked..my friend hanimmal told me about it.

How can I become an ex-pat in Canada?

Apply for landed immigrant statues or get a work permit. Dunno much about it, there is a website though. Unless you are applying as a refugee, then it might be possible if the republicans are running the country and after the American crystal night on minorities, there might be a long line though...

I only recognize three people in this pic, but Clinton and that man have been transposed. Billing Sanders as evil boils down to this.

My honor is named Loyalty.

Here is the patch of the operators who ran the death camps that killed over nine million, six million of whom were Jews.
