After Carney and Trump’s 30 day trade negotiations are over I am thinking more Canadians are going to get a free trip to Florida, when they cross the boarder. That trip is not going to be relaxing in any way, they will have to hope to not be eaten by alligators when the wind blows a little.

I paid good money a few years ago to get my info stripped from data brokers; as I live in Saskatchewan they could/would only do the bare minimum, which was still a lot do not get me wrong so I got next to no spam. I run a pihole on my LAN so I have some tracker protection as well to block trackers from getting my email. I was using Apple’s hide my feature so all the new things I would sign up for would have their own unique emails.

When I was pricing out the plans I realized it was less expensive to get whatever their least expensive web hosting was and their plan with unlimited emails. I am moving my password manger out of Apple’s walled garden into 1Password, I knew I was not going to easily export passwords from Apple’s password manager into another so I started doing that manually. I knew I was going to have to jump through the hoops to change emails for some things (totally forgetting I had 70 odd icloud addresses), when I was reading somewhere that my ISP (Sasktel) was no longer giving out email addresses and had moved to an exchange server. I do not want my emails getting anywhere near Microsoft’s grubby little fingers, even if it is through a protocol they lease out to providers or companies so I started separating my emails even going to, what I called my professional email address, I am currently sitting at 110 separate email addresses and still have not made it through all of my addresses yet.

How do I manage all those email addresses? Well you see 6 of those emails are “main addresses” which everything gets forwarded to depending on what they are, in case an address gets spammy I can more easily find the stuff and it will help me keep all my things sorted. Every so often I try to say I will keep my mailbox clean, that lasts for a little bit but then it falls apart i am hoping that keeping everything in their own address and then forwarding to a “main address,” will help me stay on top of that more.

Mark my words the first person who actually does that is going to Florida to live in Alligator Alcatraz.

Ha, Trump ain’t stepping down I will be surprised if their midterms happen! Even if their midterms happen do you think that will mean anything?

I would hope no one crossing the boarder would carry any of that stuff on their devices across the boarder (without a diplomatic pouch or equivalent) any time, I could not say the same about that today. I would hope that any of that important data would be separate and under further encryption, with fail safes to protect it.

As others have said just do not cross the border!

But maybe your employer requires you to go down there, you have rights in Canada your employer cannot ask you to do something that is unsafe to your mental or physical health and I am sure being put into a situation where your likelihood of being shipped off to a concentration camp is not 0% counts.

Maybe you have a dying family member, sorry to hear that. You want to see them before they crok then follow the instructions in this article, but maybe start believing in a sky daddy and pray to him that you do not get caught down there. Make sure it is the right version of Sky Daddy, you know the one that gives a shit about you and your adventures into the US.

Maybe you had plans to go on holidays down there before this poop all started, for that I ask what the Fuck have you been doing to not cancel those plans?

I am fairly confident it is hosthero.ca. I have the know how to use a VPS, I just do not want to manage a VPS (well I would like to have fun and try maybe sometime just not now). I just need to find ways to get away from US service providers.

On the topic of VPS I do not know if you want to count this or not but I use wireguard as a VPN into my home lab; which hosts my Jellyfin server, all my *arr apps, and my pihole. It does host a lot of space across my three pi’s with MVNe drives I have tried hosting my own Nextcloud but made a booboo and broke it so I went out and got a sync.com subscription for my cloud storage.

Across all the services hosted by Apple, Wordpress, and whatever else I was paying for just cannot think of them now I am paying considerably less for my stuff.

What?

I quasi-moved off of Facebook several years ago, mostly because I could not block the ads. Now because it is from the US. So I really have no need for a Canadian alternative to the book of faces. I have a blog if I want to scream into the void, and I am not going to be served ads doing this. I can post pictures I can write stuff about whatever, future employers wont have to do all their sneaky poop to check me out on Facebook and see what my friends are like. With my Canadian host I have unlimited emails so now everyone is getting their own email address to send me stuff, let it be person, business, or service I was trying to get close to having this done with Apple’s hide my email service but now that I have cancelled that service I have been given the opportunity to do it even better. Sense I found out my ISP uses exchange for their email service I have been trying to get that address empty, I know Microsoft aint looking through those emails but it is still a Microsoft service.

Plus have you ever seen wild geese? The are fucking anngry assholes.

I thought I saw it on some interview Trump was saying it, not using big words like debutizing the proud boys or giving people Jurist doctorate’s. Rather he said he would give some of them the ability to decide who gets to stay. I cannot find a source so maybe that is a mistake on my part.

While I want to see PP lose a very winnable seat I doubt he will 😢. I hear the liberals are going hard there trying to convince people to not vote PP, I also have heard that some of the longest ballet people are actually championing as well.

I enjoy Rachel Gilmore’s work but going and saying that PP probably is not getting laid much is going to far. /s

I do not do to much of the hook up sex, but when I do I either leave depressed or shu the guy away depressed it is because he is an idiot and thinks he is all that and thinks he knows how this girl likes it!

I saw that they are not only deputizing the proud boys but they are now giving some an honorary kudos Juris Doctorate, and fast lining them into judges to deport immigrants.

I think you have described the proud boys right.

They are both idiots. While Moe is also a murder.

I really hope it comes back. Best we can do now is stop using those services from US companies.

Maybe I will email mine then if you know nothing is going to happen? Brad Reddicop is a joke and a conservative.

I would send an email to my MP but he is a do nothing back bencher who will take credit for Carney’s failures.

A problem I see with this is that it is going to become unsafe to consume food stuffs coming from the US very soon. RFK would rather watch people die then put in the proper health requirements, if there is no requirements than capitalism will do what capitalism does and cut costs.

Hahahaa, that is a funny joke. Unless you are serious, then it is a not good take, if you give Trump a centimetre he will take the whole damn ruler and then demand every other ruler in the country.
