I don’t always namespace but when I do I fully qualify.

Senility and specialty.

People get old and their brains break - it happens to us all.

People who are good at a thing are considered to be good - which they aren’t necessarily. Someone who is good at hockey or while being managed by a PR team isn’t necessarily a good chef or a good woodworker… this might sound obvious in those cases but people constantly make this mistake when it comes to politics.

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.

I agree that the N-word is far worse - I didn’t mean to equate them but to use it as a point of comparison. The really fucking hateful and widespread usages of the n-word mostly date back to the 70s - it’s now used almost exclusively by badge wearing racists… so it has had about fifty years of pop culture non-hateful uses but is still clearly unacceptable.

The R-word was seeing widespread usage a mere twenty years ago - it’s still part of the active memory of millennials and older.

An interesting comparison might be gypsy (I type it out only because I can’t think of a clear way to abbreviate it) which is seen as an unacceptable slur (especially in the verb form) which had fallen out of social use in the 50s - even that word (though it is less openly hateful) is still pretty unacceptable.

It’s a similar story for other less common racial slurs - once a word becomes such a hateful slur it seems like the most common social response is to just abandon it with reclamation being a rarity and confined to the in group in every case I can think of (the n-word and the f-word both have gained some usage within their communities but it isn’t universal… I have an extremely negative memory of the f-word which makes me uncomfortable even when people I trust use it).

I think they mean recession.

(They actually mean that word from the 90s for developmentally challenged if you’re truly unaware).

It becoming socially acceptable is a really nebulous bar - if I found myself among folks who found it acceptable I wouldn’t use it as I consider it unacceptable at a personal level - but if it’s usage completely changed in the year 2270 then sure I might use it.

The n-word and r-word will never be socially acceptable in our lifetimes and anyone who says differently is just an asshole trying to cloak their behavior. I also don’t really see a need to put effort into reclaiming either term…

In general, I think it’s a bad thing that we have words that have become unacceptable to use and I wish those words had never been so associated with hate - but they were do we are where we are.

Good. Don’t subsidize terrorism.

Heli-skiing is a pursuit for those with more money than sense. It’s unfortunate that people have lost their lives but I really don’t have much sympathy left in the tank for the rich.

That may be a more reasonable and targeted approach. I am mainly suggesting this from a place of concern about US interference in our upcoming election.

It may be easier to have a specific list of banned outlets.

Will we be restricting the posting of links to foreign owned media?

I assume you need to calculate the red triangle’s hypotenuse but it seems like there are too many degrees of freedom to lock down any of the other sides or angles of the triangle including X unless I’m missing some hack involving chords and reflected angles.

Yes. And we should.

Yup, let’s not pull a Germany.

I like where your heads at but we really need to hound them for the next two months.

I heard Christy Clarke is looking for work - she’s essentially a moderate conservative.

I’ve yet to see any news of him openly supporting PR outside of a PR friendly minister - did I miss an announcement?

The long term warning is that if the LPC wins a majority and fails to reasonably address housing or general living costs we’ll be back in this same position next cycle.

My hope is for a minority LPC government with either BQ or NDP forcing them away from neoliberalism - if that fails it’s a long shot that Carney will turn his back on neoliberal economics… but Canada (and the world really) are at the breaking point from neoliberalism and we’ll either gracefully correct or fall closer to authoritarianism and violence.

We need change - and we only have so many chances before a fucker like PP wins an election based on economic discontent and fucks us forever.

Edit: Just to be super clear - fuck the conservatives. I in no way desire them to end up in government and my statement comes from a place of rejecting anti-trans hate and embracing a sane environmental response to climate change.

You leave the bore and the idiot alone and suddenly your NPM dependencies jump from 30MB to 502GB.
