I wish I could crash like that bird is crashing. I'm literally seething with jealousy.

To be fair to two of those people with something i learned as a Vermonter there is no idiot like a New Hampshire idiot.

It doesn't matter if he reverses tariffs. The bridge has been burned.. and the temporary bridge we built out of grace has also been burned.

We're putting all our bridge materials from here on out towards Europe.

Not the hyphen specifically - just a distinct symbol for contractions.

I'm in absolute agreement with that.

I think the bigger issue is that if a party gains majority it tends to sour on passing PR. Not to get all depressing up in here but in BC the NDP rode to power on promises of PR, held a sabotaged referendum, and never brought it up again.

Eh... eh... eh....

The Liberals deserve a good portion of that blame - especially w.r.t. grocery chains which only got a slap on the wrists after the bread price fixing scheme.

It's not like the CPC would have done anything differently had they been in charge (both parties are deeply neoliberal) but the NDP, Greens or BQ likely would've responded much stronger.

You mean Greenlanders don't want to invite a fucker that's trying to colonize them in for a spot of tea? Color me surprised.

Maybe they could try bribing homeless people with food again?

I think it's a great idea not to idolize strangers. You say you liked Elon but folks in tech have always known he's a piece of shit and some of his oldest "friends" (i.e. Thiel) fucking loathe him.

Wealth, generally, fucks people up so it's good to avoid the wealthy and famous as a default rule...

Why not appreciate people around you, friends, family, your mail folk - these people are much more impactful on your life and their kindnesses in your times of need have the potential to be life saving.

This organization is conservative oriented and advocating against tax auto filing to keep H&R Block and similar rent seekers in business.

Stand strong and in favor of tax auto filing to reduce fraud and waste - there is no reason the government shouldn't estimate our taxes for us.

 

Just a sanity check here but... yall ever been mid conversation with someone and confused that they've forgotten a thing you talked about... until you realize that previous conversation took place entirely in your head?
