On my flight to Montreal a few weeks back, I was on a 3-3 plane (737-800) and had the inside seat (my wife had window). The guy in the aisle next to me spread his arms and legs out into my personal space. The unwritten rule is that the person in the middle seat gets both arm rests (since they don't have aisle/window for more room), but this guy wasn't having any of it. The entire flight he was on Facebook watching right-wing Pierre Poilievre and conspiracy videos, though, so I didn't want to start anything with him since he 100% seemed the type to start an altercation. Flying is so bad nowadays that it honestly is affecting our plans to travel.

Germany once again proving to be weak and spineless—they've been saying for over a year that the only way they'll deliver any Taurus missiles (like Storm Shadows, but with larger warheads) to Ukraine is if the US is also going to commit long-range strike missiles, as Germany knows that Ukraine will use Tauruses to take out the Kerch bridge. Basically, that Germany won't be a leader, just a follower. However, now that the US is going to provide long-range single-warhead ATACMS...Germany is saying they won't send any Tauruses.

Greece has announced they have a Patriot system they can give Ukraine. They will give a second if the US will guarantee air protection against Turkey. The US is now saying the military package will arrive in Ukraine "much sooner" than anyone expects. I would guess the US gear is already in Germany or Poland just waiting for the Senate to pass the bill.

Biden cracking down on long term care providers

During the pandemic my province had to step in an nationalize a few care homes because the private operators were doing such a horrible job. IMO all healthcare (including elder care) should be public, not private.
