I just graze liberally at the reassuringly expensive olive bar as payment for apparently working the checkout against my will.

You’re welcome to own a Grand Cannoneer for all I care. Just pay for the fucking externalities of doing so is all I ask. I’m sick of leeches demanding a free ride for their choices.

Boy, you coulda just said that you don’t subscribe to any philosophy that doesn’t fit on a bumper sticker.

Canada, most of Western Europe, Scandinavia- All have a greater blend of public and private responsibilities. Because there are some areas of interest that *benefit *from monopolies. Single payer health care. Industries vital to national security (resource ownership like Norway or Mexico as an example). Canada’s government-created Telsat celecommunications put the first commercial telecommunications satellite in orbit in the 70s, and now as a former crown corporation is set to have a better high-speed competitor to Starlink operational by 2026. Fire departments. Policing. Schooling. There are lots of examples where a socialist approach is preferable to unfettered capitalism.

Capitalism also gave us The tragedy of the Commons, which is playing out in the environment on a worldwide scale. You want to see poverty? Just wait until climate caused widespread displacement kicks in in earnest.

Wealth inequality is gaining traction. The standard of living of the average poor American is better today than it was in the 1960s. What has changed is how we feel about it. Wealth inequality makes us mad, but it has not resulted in worse overall living standards on an absolute scale.

How you can manage to speak with your head so far up your own ass is an amazing magic trick. Wealth has been decoupled from productivity for more than 50 years now. That’s just facts.

In his heart he turned towards the camera, rolled his eyes, and made the jerk off motion.

A 7 iron works best

Like the way California people say their O’s

As a Canadian, it’s all I can hear when they speak.

As a guy not big on the whole consent thing, I doubt Trump understands Never particularly well.

What gets me is that they didn’t message plex pass holders about this first. I would have gladly let my users know that they need to do nothing. Instead I’m fielding all kinds of panicked messages.

you’re not wrong. But at least he’s our scammer.

Temu Trump

Well that’s bullshit. And I’m from rural Alberta

Watching them sing the anthem full-throated during the 4 nations was a sight to behold.

Your original instinct was actually correct. Fingers have the metacarpal, proximal phalange, middle phalange, and distal phalange. The thumb doesn’t have a middle phalange. The proximal and distal phalange connect directly to each other.

We have fully truncated it to just thumb because of how it feels more unique to the others

Kinda like the goalie on a hockey team or the drummer in a band. Still on the team, just a bit weirder.

Deliberately threatening the cohort of people most likely to consider buying your vehicles isn’t exactly a winning strategy. Elon asking ‘how do I woo Tesla buyers back?’ is like the Governor of California asking ‘How do we woo Canadian tourists back?’

You don’t. It’s like asking ‘how big does the bribe have to be for you to sacrifice your every principle?’ You can’t. There is no argument you can make that isn’t fundamentally offensive on its face. That market is gone forever.

We were kinda just hoping that you’d build (and pay) for it.

I have questions

Where I am it universally refers to a railroad company, Canadian Pacific.
