I’ll have to check that Alan Cross podcast out. I used to love his History of New Music shows on the radio. I never really got into the podcast thing, but I could see myself getting into one if it was hosted by him

I used to like Ubuntu, but I got so sick for not being able to do things due to packages being out of date, and/or snaps getting in the way.

I ditched it for arch and I’m so much happier

If CanCon gave more visibility to ALL Canadian artists, sure. The way it is on the radio, it seems that you don’t have to be a good Canadian band, you just have to be a Canadian artist.

Soooooo we just allow bikes in the lanes with the cars, which will create even more congestion.

Classic conservative reactionary bullshit. You have to literally have 0 brain to think this is a good idea.

What do you expect from a conservative government? This cuts into oil consumption and green alternatives. Can’t have that!

They should try lowering prices and paying their workers better. I suspect that would drive down violence far more than cameras.

But this probably has nothing to do with safety and everything to do with employee surveillance with a pinch of voyeurism.

The motion contains absolutely nothing

Right, so on par with literally every mouth noise PP has ever made

I would rather see improved tax brackets to get money back into the economy by forcing the rich to either pay more in taxes, or steal less from the employees thus paying them a fair share (which in turn will actually be spent and fed back into the economy)

It’s funny how the party of “taxes bad” somehow also like a balanced budget.

How the fuck are you gonna balance it when you choke out cash flows and things cost more annually? 🤔

They nailed the retro-futurism aesthetic with that window UI

Which is why we need to nationalize banks. Why the fuck are they private institutions when you literally can’t get by without a bank account?

so what to do now?

How about a Civics exam that you need to pass in order to vote? If somebody doesn’t know the basics of the government including federal vs provincial vs municipal, then their vote shouldn’t count because they have no underiof what they’re voting for in the first place.

Not all of us, but it sure feels like the province has been lobotomized

The problem is that this country is fucking brain-dead and tries to elect conservatives federally every chance they can. Shit, there’s an actual chance somebody as against the general public as Poilivere could be elected. There are actually working class folk out there absolutely excited to fuck themselves and everybody else over by electing him in. Every point they make against Trudeau will very possibly continue or be worse under PP yet they’re out there with raging truck boners hopping to vote him in.

And that has the potential to fuck the entire country over for healthcare instead of just a few lobotomized provinces.

Be careful what you wish for.

And generally signs pointing out the potential for deer and other animals crossing. Will probably opt to drive like mad at night through them? Probably, but you can’t fix stupid nor should you let them take away the rights and privileges of the less stupid

If you’re traveling through an area where there is the potential for wildlife to yeet itself onto the roard, then chances are there will be signs posted and a reduced speed limit…

This still sounds like shit driving, and as somebody stuck doing pointless commutes to an office and back every day I swear people on the road have gotten significantly worse after the COVID restrictions lightened up.

Don’t blame the cars for their shitty occupants. There are plenty of other things to blame on vehicles, but this isn’t one. This is shit drivers, shit drive tests, and try fact at after you get your license the whole thing just becomes a pay-to-play subscription. Should be mandatory re-tests every time (or every other time) it needs to be renewed.

Why are they concerned? They have plenty of oil to drink

I swear we are living among a major population of zombies. The amount of stupidity is too damn high, and it seems to be on the rise, too. The number of people crying about Trudeau, but wanting to vote in Poilivere is so incredibly ass-backwards, but these are the same people who were protesting on government property about tyranny and losing freedoms without any repercussions… Imagine how good the world would be if these people had any modicum of critical thinking skills.

Lmao how is selling my house and buying another ridiculously inflated house part of my retirement?
