Why not both?

Hah, I don’t care about Trudeau (and certainly don’t want to sleep with him like some of the more vocal fans), and lose either way as an NDP supporter. The entitlement to other parties’ votes is laughable. You’re bothered by the vote splitting? Perhaps electoral reform would help with that (I would’ve even accepted the ranked choice system that the Liberals proposed back in 2015, but even that didn’t materialize).

The NDP will only have a real shot at power if the Liberals crash and burn, similar to the provincial NDP (but fuck Andrea Horwath for wasting her party’s chance).

As for dealing with a conservative PM, well, I’ll be fine, but he’s still going to drag the country backward on climate policy. I hope y’all are rich enough to handle the rising costs of climate change (which will continue to rise even if Poilievre axes the carbon tax in total denial)

No, you don’t get to blame third party when this riding was overwhelmingly Liberal for 30 years. Plus, the margin of victory was so small that they didn’t even need strategic voters to win it themselves.

This was a de facto referendum on Trudeau himself, and he would be wise to take heed of this warning.

Make an effort to Google. Marit Stiles has an online presence.

Nothing a VPN can’t solve

If we’re lucky he’ll piss off his Russian contacts and end up falling out a window by accident.

More likely is that this puppet will be used by bad actors to advance their agendas and as usual he’ll distract everybody from the actual bad shit happening.

So what I read is that TPUSA enables useful idiots.

Stop giving attention whores what they want, for fuck’s sake. It’s like getting mad at Facebook comments which I thought we’d all learned was useless a decade ago.

I like to use the Wirecutter from the New York Times as a starting point, though I often ignore the products recommended because the links are typically to American online retailers that I’m unlikely to use. I pay more attention to the various aspects used to recommend their choices, then check other reviews from specialized hobbyist forums when available. Finally, if I find the product in a store I will ask to demo it before buying.

YouTube can be helpful if you can cut through the clutter or need to see head to head testing between your short list items. Don’t blindly search there though because the algorithm is shit.

It’s simply part of an effort to impose moral beliefs on a world that to them, appears to work without them. Bringing order to chaos. Kind of like the Christian beliefs underpinning such cruelty.

Who the hell would want to live in a republican hellhole like this

This issue has been explored previously, and with a better example of the trolley problem that centers the ethical dilemma entirely on the autopilot.

I do agree that in most situations, the driver retains full control over the vehicle, and therefore remains fully responsible, even if there’s a case to be made that the autopilot neglected the safety of others outside the car.

However, I’d also argue that this example leaves a possibility where fault cannot be assigned to them: If the driver became aware of the hazards at a reasonable time (i.e. spotting the pedestrians just around a sharp bend, rather than 200m down a straightaway), and made every reasonable effort to stop within that time but could not. There are limits to the driver’s responsibility, but the most interesting cases are crashes that the autopilot is capable of preventing (even if the driver reasonably cannot), but fails to do so.

Bro, is this really the time for that 💀

Fuck Shoppers. High dispensing fees mean literally anybody else can do it better. Switch to your local pharmacy.

You could always don a stage persona like Marshmello or Daft Punk. Then nobody cares what you look like under the mask.

I’ve only bought two Nintendo games twice.

First was Super Smash Bros. Brawl because my first game disc got scratched by accident and became unreadable by the Wii console.

The second was Mario Kart 8 because of the Booster Course Pass even though I bought this game a decade ago on the Wii U with its DLC.

The BCP makes this game feel new again, like a Mario Kart 8.5.

Disappointing to hear of this. He had a sharp tongue and I liked some of his critiques when he was still writing occasional columns for the Globe and Mail, but I didn’t realize he already lost his journalistic integrity…

Consider a sleep study. I found out I have sleep apnea this way, and did a follow up study with a CPAP machine where I just felt 100x better rested than usual. Ask your doctor for a referral.

It’s so bloody stupid that a Loblaws owned grocery store gets to keep the name of Independent. Why do we tolerate this dystopian double-speak?

Anyways boycotting isn’t viable for me so “shrinkage” will have to do.

This is disingenuous. Scammers have gotten smarter over the years and not everybody is technologically savvy. All it takes is a perfect storm of factors for even the most experienced people to fall prey to scams.

Stop victim blaming and focus on education. It’s the only way this gets better.
