What the? I thought we were edging towards some kind of morning-after regret deal with the US, but now we're back in a trade war? A man could get whiplash from trends that change this fast.

Carney says the US made unfair last minute changes, and I believe it. Sounds like them.

Apple tree update.

It's squirrels AND magpies eating my apples! I just saw a magpie pecking away at an apple on the porch, making those odd mumbling noises they make when they're happy. Then the squirrel came down the wall, looked sternly at the magpie, and ran off along the electric wire.

So I've got a small mystery. My apple tree is covered in ripe apples, and lots of them are constantly dropping on the lawn. Recently I gathered up a bucket of apples and put them on the porch. And the next day an apple appeared beside the bucket, on the porch, that had been partially eaten...

I'm still reading the DC Finest collection "Starro The Conqueror," which features the earliest adventures of the League. It's been more fun than I expected, even though it'll still be a long time before the book develops the subplots and characterization of the later years.

I just saw the end of Daredevil Born Again season 2. I liked it, but it wasn't flawless. In particular I really liked the way Matt revealed his identity in court, and the way that scene was shot. I also liked Fisk and his men being trapped in the court in the end...

It rained again on Monday afternoon, and my basement flooded pretty bad. After emerging from many hours of vacuuming I see the city itself is flooding now. Mill Creek is overflowing its banks onto nearby roads, and a lot of big buildings downtown are springing leaks. Enough with the rain!

Here we go again! Another Saturday, another enormous monsoon. On the radar there's a huge wall of yellow and red and the city is in the middle of it.

The power flickered on and off a few minutes back, so we may lose electricity this time.

I GUESS Diaper Don was kidding about running again in 2028, but he's so incredibly bad at humor that it's not clear. At least a couple of non-US news outlets took him seriously.

I'm sure he's "kidding" for now, but given the slightest pretext he'll try to run for real

WTAF? It's like a bullseye with this city in the middle. Did we do something to piss off God?

I really, really, really hope there's no tornadoes today. (Or any other day!)

One of the biggest leaks came from behind one of my bookshelves (3rd in a row of 4). So before the official contractor comes to give his quote I needed to clear all the books off the last 2 shelves so we can look behind them. Took me two hours of really hard work. Talk about cardio!
July 17, 2026 at 4:28 AM
I finally got through to a basement company, and got an appointment for someone to come by and give me a quote. The first thing he said is "remove the drywall so we can see where there's any leaks."

...

That's like saying "sink the boat so we can see where it takes on water."

Right now Environment Canada has the city under two separate yellow alerts: both thunderstorm warnings, with conditions favorable for the formation of tornadoes.

Outside I can hear the thunder and rain starting. Here we go. I hope it's just rain and not anything worse...

In celebration of the Masters of The Universe movie that, I guess, came out a while ago - but mostly just for fun, here's one of my favorite obscure blogs: monsterbrains.blogspot.com/2011/05/mast...

The Monster Brains blog is a freaking treasure, and it's a real loss that it's no longer updated.

So Trump decided to announce, on Canada day, that the US wouldn't renew CUSMA. What an asshole.

It doesn't effect anything much, since the deal will remain in force until 2036, long after the current adminstration leaves office and Trump himself is, as they say, at one with the soil.

It rained a lot over the last 2 weeks, and flooded part of my basement. The room where I store my comics and books was most heavily effected.

Tonight I vacuumed the carpet for the 5th time in a row, and it's not exactly dry, but hopefully dry enough for air to finish. Comic collection saved?

Woke up this morning with no feeling in my left hand. It was cold as ice and the fingers barely moved. Took more than thirty minutes for the feeling to come back.

Guess I injured myself with all this endless vacuuming of water out of the basement. But I can't stop when it keeps coming in.

Here we go again! I just got my basement dry from last weekend's moonsoon, now we're getting another one.

Good luck to everyone. I've tried to armor the low spots around my house so the rain can't come in, but that doesn't do much when the ground is saturated.

Hey, check it out! One of my favorite new shows, For All Mankind, got a spinoff!

Star City is set in the same alt world where the Soviets were the first to land on the Moon, but the story is told from their side this time.

I wonder how they'll keep the story fresh?

I've just learned that the Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers have an animated show, and it's currently in it's third season!

Not sure what to think about that. The world is a stranger place than I realized.
