Dr. Lemma@DoctorLemma·
In 1951, a 14-year-old boy in Australia nearly died during surgery. He needed massive blood transfusions to survive. Strangers’ blood saved his life. He made a promise. The moment he turned 18, he would start donating blood. He kept that promise. He started donating in 1954. After the first few donations, doctors discovered something unusual. His blood contained a rare antibody that could be used to prevent a fatal condition in unborn babies. Before this discovery, thousands of babies in Australia were dying every year and doctors did not know why. Women were having miscarriage after miscarriage. Babies were being born with brain damage. The antibody in his blood changed everything. It was used to create a medication given to pregnant women whose blood was at risk of attacking their unborn child. His name was James Harrison. They called him “The Man with the Golden Arm.” He donated every two weeks for over 60 years. He never missed a single appointment. He expected nothing in return. In Australia, blood donors are not paid. He was terrified of needles the entire time. “I’ve never once watched the needle go into my arm,” he said. “I look at the ceiling. I look at the nurses.” His own daughter needed the injection during her pregnancy. His grandchildren may not have existed without his donations. “He has left behind a family that may not have existed without his precious donations,” she said. On 11 May 2018, at age 81, he made his 1,173rd and final donation. Australian law does not allow blood donations past that age. More than 3 million doses of medication made from his blood have been given to Australian mothers since 1967. He is credited with saving the lives of 2.4 million babies. He died peacefully in his sleep on 17 February 2025, aged 88. Scientists have since grown his antibody in a laboratory, hoping it will one day protect mothers and babies around the world.

As a disabled person who has to use a mobility walker, a rolling buggy is not in my future. Being on CPPD forces me to shop smart. PC Optimum points have been purchasing groceries for us for many years now. Got a great deal on Neilson 2% 4L Milk last week. $4.99 for a bag of milk that is normally $6.44 Again, being on CPPD forces me to shop smart.

@JoeC4281 @FoodProfessor No you have to shop smart and stock up when you can. Make your meal plans for the week based on food on hand and flyer specials. Use stores that price match, reward credit cards and plan your trip. Get a rolling buggy for buses. It isn’t rocket science.

Canadians are hitting grocery stores more often than 5 years ago. Less loyalty. Smarter, deal-driven shoppers. It can save money—but costs more time, more trips, and less convenience. We’re trading efficiency for control at the checkout.

Student: Teacher, I don’t see why I have to take Algebra or Trig. Does anybody ever use this stuff? Teacher: You won’t, but the smart kids will.

@FoodProfessor Some people experience "chocolate" differently. Sad that the "chocolate" in 2026 is no longer the chocolate of the past.

Breakdown of some costs for Easter weekend, in just one week! Compared with 2025, chocolate and lamb are more expensive, while ham appears to be cheaper. Turkey, meanwhile, is essentially flat.

@losinghopein @JoeC4281 I'd love to have that increase! I know I say this a lot, even though I live at home with my parents, I still struggle living on the room and board portion.

As we begin Holy Week, let's remember that Jesus loves you so much that He marched right into Jerusalem knowing the pain and suffering He was about to endure. He did it for you.

Ruminants doing ruminant things are CO₂ and methane neutral. Plants suck CO₂ from the air Ruminants eat the plants Ruminants burp out some methane Methane breaks down in 10 yrs into CO₂ Plants suck it right back up Cycle repeats It's a closed system with no new carbon. Pass it on!

The Biblical Man
The Biblical Man@Biblicalman·
John leaned on Jesus' chest at supper. Stayed at the cross when every other man ran. Outlived all twelve. Beaten. Boiled in oil. Exiled to a rock in the ocean. Thirty years later, Jesus appeared to him in glory. John didn't worship. Didn't kneel. Didn't lift his hands. He fell at His feet as dead. As dead. Peter did the same thing. After the miraculous catch — boats sinking under the weight — Peter didn't celebrate. He said: "Depart from me; for I am a sinful man, O Lord." Isaiah saw the Lord high and lifted up. Seraphim crying, Holy. And the prophet said: "Woe is me! for I am undone." Job argued with God for 37 chapters. Then God showed up. Job said: "I abhor myself and repent in dust and ashes." Every tough man in the Bible who saw the living God had the same reaction. Not awe. Not worship. Collapse. Now look at us. Walking into church with coffee. Nodding at sermons. Shaking hands in the lobby. Forgetting it by Tuesday. We think we've been in God's presence. If you'd been in God's presence, you wouldn't walk out the same way you walked in. The men who saw Him couldn't stand. We can barely be bothered to sit. When Jesus returns, there will be no more heroes. No more performers. The hero and the villain will stand equal at last — empty-handed, bare-faced, finally free to be merely beloved...
