I’m up near Sudbury Ontario and our forests don’t look so bad yet … but everyone here knows and is aware of how much snow we got this winter and it wasn’t much. We are not having as much spring runoff as we did years before. It all means that our forests will dry out in a month or two and by then, the hot summer weather will be here and ignite everything.

We’re not looking forward to the summer.

Enjoy it while you can. I think we’ll be breathing in a lot smoke in a month or two.

This reminded me of a similar thing from my childhood. I grew up in a very traditional Indigenous family. My parents were born in the wilderness so I grew up doing a lot of very traditional things like hunting, trapping and fishing. One of my earliest farthest memories is being out on the ice gill net fishing with my parents. I must have been about seven eight years old. You have to set out an area on a river and then chip out a series of holes to literally ‘sew’ a net under the ice attached to a long pole guiding the pole past the holes you made. I can remember looking at those holes in the ice and wondering … if I fall in, I won’t be able to get back through the hole … I would end up stuck under the ice until I died. The holes were small … but I was small too and I knew I could easily fit through the hole … it was a weird fascination between I don’t want to drown in an ice hole … and I wonder what it’s like under the ice hole. It completely freaked me out and became an embedded permanent memory for me forever after.

It’s weird thinking about dangerous things when you’re a kid … you know the danger, you know it might even be deadly but you’re curious to find out what it would mean or what it would feel like … it’s amazing any of us survive through childhood.

I think my older brothers and sisters sat me down next to them to watch this … I vaguely remember it … but I think it scared me so badly that I block it out of my childhood memory and refuse to remember it

I should go watch it again for the first time.

Never Cry Wolf

My parents loved that film because they identified with it a lot … I know, I know … there are a lot of criticisms around Farley Mowat and what he may or may not have known or embellished about the writing he created. I loved Farley because he was a complete nut … but my kind of lovable weird intelligent nut. In the movie, the images and ideas of living out in the wilderness was a lot of fun to watch … and yes that scene under the ice was terrifying for me as a kid.

Thanks for awakening long forgotten fears and anxieties … may you drown in your bathtub … and me in my river.

This is what I’m loving about DS9 … good people don’t always win, just like in real life. It’s the same logic from the famous Picard quote:

“It is possible to commit no mistakes and still lose. That is not a weakness; that is life.”

Watching the stories in DS9 unfold knowing that good things won’t always happen makes the whole series so grounded and relatable.

I’m on season three now and thoroughly enjoying it all.

God … she’s so good I felt like throwing my phone against the wall. Everyone should have a Kai Winn in their lives, to make you momentarily miserable and allow you to appreciate the rest of your life

Judging by the amount of fascism around and the fact that Nazism still exists and is still celebrated in some circles … did World War Two end?

we just operation paperclipped the nazis elsewhere into society

When you look at the post war history and the fact that the Allies defeated the Nazis with the Communist Soviets … after the war, it was far easier to be a Nazi than it was to be a Communist. I’m in Canada and you can’t believe the number of Nazi loving or Nazi associated war veterans that made their way here and the US after the war.
