Only On The Walters Post

You know folks, every few months it’s the same thing. Some post pops up screaming, “Planet X is coming!” or “The world ends tomorrow! Be prepared! Jesus is the only way!” And people panic, stock up on beans, and share it like their life depends on it.

Here’s my feelings, it’s almost always nonsense. The end of the world has been coming since forever. Comets, planets, solar flares… you name it, someone said it would wipe us out. And here we are. Still walking around, spilling coffee, sneaking into Walmart without paying, and dealing with the same mess we always do.

These posts work on fear. They make you feel like the sky is falling unless you click, share, or pray in exactly the right way. And the people warning you? Most of them have been screaming this same apocalypse for years.

The thing is: Life itself is unpredictable enough, storms, accidents, stars burning out. Hell, you don’t need a viral post to remind you that the world is fragile or amazing.

Until the next time, keep your minds open and your stories alive. GW

Folks, I gotta tell you something about these Facebook and Twitter posts that claim if you don’t share them, you’re going to get cursed—or if you do, the universe will somehow reward you. That’s pure nonsense.

First off, nobody’s sitting up there checking your feed to see if you clicked share. If they were, they’d probably be busy dealing with hurricanes, politicians, and idiots trying to sneak in and out of Walmart without paying. Your little tap on that button doesn’t mean a thing.

And let’s be real—good luck doesn’t travel over Wi-Fi. And forwarding a chain email won’t make the universe suddenly say, “Oh, this one’s good. Let’s toss him a bone.” That’s not how reality works.

Here’s the kicker: these posts work on fear and guilt. That’s it. Guilt, fear, anxiety. They want you to feel like you’re failing somehow if you scroll past. You know what that reminds me of? Those old chain letters. You remember them, right? “Send this to ten people, or you’ll be haunted by a ghost.” Only now it’s Jesus holding a puppy, and the ghost is your nonexistent bad luck.

Belief isn’t something you push with a button. It doesn’t care about likes, shares, or how many people see it. Real decency shows up in the everyday things—helping a neighbor, telling the truth, being there when it matters. So don’t panic, and don’t click share out of fear. Scroll past if you want, laugh at how ridiculous it all is, and if you feel like it, do something real for someone. That matters far more than any Facebook post ever will.

Then again… some people will believe anything, as long as it’s printed in fancy letters and tells them what to do.

You know, occasionally, the internet throws something at us that makes you scratch your head and wonder, “Did I miss a memo?” Lately, a persistent rumor has been floating around Facebook and other social media: that schools here in Canada are setting up litter boxes for students who identify as “furries.”

Well, in reality…this is not true. No school in Canada, including all schools in Ontario, has installed litter boxes in classrooms. No school board recognizes “furries” in any official capacity. Ontario, Prince Edward Island, and Alberta… all have issued official statements confirming the story is false.

However, schools do allow students to express themselves within reasonable dress codes. Kids can wear fun clothes, hats, or themed outfits for spirit days or events. But this does not extend to recognizing “furries” as a formal category, and students cannot simply come to school in full furry costumes as part of official accommodation. Rules about appropriate clothing… no disruptive costumes in class, no masks that obscure the face… still apply.

So where did the rumor come from? Like most viral nonsense, it started somewhere else (the U.S.), got a little makeover online, and suddenly made the rounds here. Some folks saw it on Facebook or Twitter, read a shocking headline, and thought, “Well, if it’s online, it must be true,” and shared it faster than a kid running from chores.

The truth is much less exciting but a lot safer: Canadian schools are focused on teaching math, reading, science, and how not to eat glue in art class. There are no kitty litter stations hiding behind the lockers and no secret furry lounges in the gym.

So next time you see someone sharing this story, you can smile, shake your head, and maybe say. “Nope, schools are not giving out litter boxes.”

But hey... who knows what the future will bring? Maybe hallways that move like conveyor belts, that carry students to their rooms. Probably not, but it’s fun to imagine.

Fact-checked as of August 2025; There are no reports or official evidence of Canadian schools installing litter boxes or formally recognizing “furries.”
