IIRC you're supposed to drink until you urinate in order to confirm proper hydration. Drinking milk until I pee sounds tough.
Thanks for that, very enlightening.

This reminds me of what Germany was like c.1930.

Lolol he's gonna take credit for other programs that already exist… again.
“Nasssty Canada, with its healthcare and reciprocal tariffs!” Krasnov hissed. “It burns us, precious!”
He hunched over in the dim glow of the Oval Office, stroking a golden golf ball in his palms, his eyes darting between it and the maps spread across his desk. “They take advantage of us, yes they do. Always winning, always smug with their free doctor visits and politeness. Weak! But strong! It’s tricksy, so tricksy!”
A cough echoed from the corner. His chief of staff, a weary-looking man with thinning hair, cleared his throat. “Sir, this—uh—this meeting with Prime Minister Trudeau is important. We need to discuss trade.”
Krasnov recoiled, clutching the ball tighter. “Trade?! TRADE?! Filthy free-traders! They cheat us! Steal from us! But we—” He paused, his voice dropping into a desperate whisper. “We could… could take their milk, yes, yes! Their delicious dairy! Make America milky again!”
His chief of staff pinched the bridge of his nose. “Sir, we already produce a lot of milk.”
Krasnov’s face twisted, his fingers tightening around the golf ball like a strangling grip. “No! Canadian milk is special! It’s… socialist milk! It must be destroyed! We put tariffs on it, we crush them, and then we take it for ourselves, yessss!”
A flicker of doubt passed across his face. He shook his head violently, as though fighting himself. “But what if… what if Canada is right?” His voice softened, a pained expression twisting his features. “What if… universal healthcare isn’t nasssty? What if… it’s… good?”
He gasped, stumbling backward, horror-stricken. “No! No, no, no, never! That’s socialism! That’s evil! We hates it!” He flung the golf ball across the room, where it clattered against a bust of Lincoln and rolled onto the carpet.
His chief of staff stared, unsure of what to say.
Krasnov froze, then slowly crawled toward the ball, cradling it again in his hands. “We must punish Canada. Yes, precious. We must make them pay. Or else… or else we lose.”
A long silence followed.
Finally, the chief of staff sighed. “I’ll call the trade representative.”
We like our women with bodily autonomy and with the right to choose.
We like our right to protest without the fear of being jailed and deported.
We like our heads of state to be respectful and respected on the world stage.
We like our right to privacy without surveillance, and our civil servants free from Krasnov’s oligarchs.
Most importantly, we like our beer to be unshittified!
Sincerely,
The Canadians who haven't already fallen victim to your propaganda.
“I will immediately bring prices down starting on Day 1,” he said on Aug. 15, for example. “Starting the day I take the oath of office, I will rapidly drive prices down,” he promised later that same month.
He backed away from that last month.
Everything's normal. This is what you voted for, Murca!
ETA For those following these comments:
Hanlon's razor is an adage or rule of thumb that states: Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.
Given the track record of those in the current ruling class of Murca, I agree with those comments which suggest we can exchange the placement of "malice" and "stupidity".
Krasnov just DGAF about the plebs who voted for him, at best. At worst, he's actively destroying the economy, democracy, and the plebs he lied to.
A.I. summary:
On International Women's Day, March 8, 2025, demonstrators across Quebec rallied to defend women's rights and protest against the policies of the new American administration under President Donald Trump. In Montreal, many protesters wore red, chanted "shame on you," formed human chains, and observed eight minutes of silence. Similar protests occurred in other Quebec cities, including Sherbrooke, Joliette, Victoriaville, and Saguenay.
These gatherings, organized by the collective Mothers at the Front under the banner "Together for our daughters," aimed to denounce perceived attacks by the U.S. administration on women's rights, human rights, health, the environment, and the economy.
The protests reflect a broader movement opposing President Trump's policies, reminiscent of the Women's Marches that took place globally following his first inauguration in 2017.
According to available information, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) have initiated an investigation into procurement practices at Alberta Health Services (AHS), focusing on contracts awarded to private surgical clinics and medical supply companies. This probe follows allegations made by former AHS CEO Athana Mentzelopoulos, who was dismissed on January 8, 2025. Mentzelopoulos claims her termination was linked to her internal investigation into these procurement practices, including over $600 million awarded to MHCare Medical.
In her wrongful dismissal lawsuit, Mentzelopoulos alleges that Health Minister Adriana LaGrange issued directives preventing AHS from negotiating private surgery contracts and mandated rates exceeding those of comparable agreements. She also raises concerns about a private clinic in Edmonton, Alberta Surgical Group (ASG), which, despite underperformance, was reportedly on track to overbill AHS by approximately $3.5 million.
Additionally, the lawsuit highlights potential conflicts of interest involving Jitendra Prasad, particularly his influence on AHS contracts related to MHCare. Prasad was reportedly referred to as "his guy" by Marshall Smith, then chief of staff to Premier Danielle Smith, and was allegedly positioned at Alberta Health to ensure the government could "get contracting right."
Both Health Minister LaGrange and Premier Smith dispute these claims. The RCMP investigation is ongoing, and no further details have been released at this time.

The prime minister's intelligence and security adviser says it's time for Canada to be less dependent on its partners, comments that come a day after the U.S. launched a trade war against its northern neighbour.
"We need to be a little bit more selfish now," said Nathalie Drouin, while speaking on a panel Wednesday morning to a room of international military and security officials in Ottawa.
"Yes we need to make our NATO target, we need to make sure that we remain a reliable partner for NORAD. But we need first to think about Canada and how to protect Canada and this is where our focus should be."
On Tuesday, U.S. President Donald Trump followed through on his threat to impose 25 per cent tariffs on most Canadian goods, a decision that launched both countries into turbulent economic times. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau responded with counter-tariffs on an initial tranche of $30 billion worth of American goods.
Trudeau said Tuesday that Trump is trying to prompt "a total collapse of the Canadian economy" because he thinks that will "make it easier to annex us," something the U.S. president has repeatedly said he wants to do.
The president's trade war and consistent prodding about making Canada the 51st state are far from his only stance compounding global uncertainty.
Trump has made it clear he wants to see a swift end to the war sparked by Russia's 2022 full-scale invasion of Ukraine via negotiations with Moscow.
Trudeau noted that Trump is attacking his country's "closest partner and ally" while "talking about working positively with Russia and appeasing Vladimir Putin, a lying, murderous dictator."
The United States ended aid to Ukraine after an argument between Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and U.S. President Donald Trump in the Oval Office last week.
In her opening remarks, Drouin said Canada needs "to have the appropriate capabilities to defend Canada."
"We are in the most unsettling time since the Second World War," Drouin said. "I could not avoid saying our paradigm relationship with the U.S. has changed."
There are concerns with how the new White House administration will approach intelligence.
As the panel was preparing to begin, senior White House officials announced the country has temporarily cut off intelligence-sharing with Ukraine
One of Drouin's predecessors, Vincent Rigby, voiced concerns last month that the U.S. will weaponize access to American intelligence with traditional allies over trade irritants.
Canadian Security Intelligence Service Director Dan Rogers, also a speaker on Wednesday's panel, expressed optimism that won't be the case, arguing the U.S. benefits from its intelligence relationship with Canada.
"If you can rely on partners to act in their self-interest, then they should continue to value the binational co-operation between U.S. and Canada in the intelligence space. And I think they do," he said.
"Now is a great time to double down on the things that make us strong."
