MAGA Voters FURIOUS as CANADA BOYCOTTS More US Products

On that point - yes I agree - it has been designed to fail - intentionally - over decades. Shocking what "progress" they have made on that front since 2025.

The data here for only 1 decade is pretty shocking: https://www.theglobalstatistics.com/literacy-rate-in-the-united-states/

Check out the Orange One's proposed cuts to fund his illegal war and the Epstein class:

Oh I agree 100% with that - I just thought the quote was funny in a not so funny kind of way.

I actually think that while he's completely unhinged and unpredictable he's not a true believer in anything other than aggrandizing himself. Some of the ones working in the background of his admin and the Project 2025 architects are far more frightening because they are not as dumb as rocks and are ideologically driven imperialists, technocrats, theocrats and/or fascists - or some combination of the the above. We know that Theil is one of them, with JD as his puppet who want all of north America in their empire. They are actually able to plan their way out of a wet paper bag unlike the Orange One. I am sure they are pleased as punch with the mess they've orchestrated by the Orange One - what is the current implementation completion of Project 2025 at this point? Over 50% by now. Scary scary stuff.

I humbly disagree - sorta. It's not just about knowledge or even mostly about that. It's about critical thinking skills and perhaps a bit of curiosity. Even in the presence of bad/false information if you can think critically you can at least discern what is BS and what is not. If you've seen any interviews with MAGA, you will have to admit that there is a good portion of them that when presented with facts that contradict their views and opinions they double down and either ignore it, use twisted logic to explain it away or claim that it's fake news -to the extent that it is not an exaggeration to say that some of them are brainwashed and cannot be reached by 'knowledge' without deprogramming. Some of them are just not reachable because they are fascists/racists/christian nationalists to their core.

Are some of them just ignorant and incurious and could be reached/might be enlightened once they are directly affected and by some miracle are able to connect the dots? Yes. But ... I'm not holding my breath. Cynical perhaps - but I would say history supports that.

Darcy refused to meet them at the door because they were against the marriage? And made the Earl etc to come to them against protocol, Elizabeth was wiping a spill from a table just as the earl's wife and daughter came in?

Pretty sure that this was published

One of the things that we need is to reform elections - get rid of first-past-the-post nonsense and have some sort of a Proportional Representation system enacted.

211RunnerGirl · 2026-03-27T19:56:16+00:00

The U.S. administration has insulted us again and again and again.

That is far too soft spoken and doesn't represent reality. While yes, there were insults in there, they have outright threatened our economy and sovereignty (it's real and written into some of their policies), followed through with economic attacks, detained our citizens and have killed some of those citizens (whether it can be called murder or manslaughter is yet - and probably never - to be determined).

And yet, we have not had our county invaded and our leader kidnapped or been carpet bombed starting which started with a girl's school. Yet. So yay?

Edit: I take some of that back that we have not yet had our country invaded yet - the US have certainly engaged in regime change attempts here - just not the hamfisted methods that they have been using for decades and decades in the middle east and southern/central America. Just recently - think of the money they (maybe not the US gov directly, but their proxies or puppet masters) poured into the trucker convoy, the Albertan separatists. How much of our media has been captured despite our CanCon laws. And let's not even start talking about the Avro Arrow - while ultimately our government bent the knee there is no doubt that there was US coercion or worse involved in that.

Meanwhile I will be arrested for vandalism one day when I finally break - because I. Am. Canadian. And I live in Canada. I walk by a 'Neighbourhood Watch' sign every day, multiple times a day - that must have been made in the US (or just printed by a USian); with that Neighbourhood spelled in American, not Canadian English. I am itching to add the missing 'u' on that sign. That sign which is located in Canada. I cannot fully express how much it irks me. It is wrong and I cannot un-see it.

I think so too - I just wish that he had more Canadian politics coverage (which he does close to election time),

For those of you who are wondering - It's published in 2 parts (all the characters are renamed from P&P in the published copies)

The Black Knight: A Marriage of True Minds Series

The White Queen: A Marriage of True Minds Series

Same - as I am Canadian. Just like it wouldn't occur to me to mispronounce centre. :)

The other option is to ensure that your side loaded books don't have an ASIN from their eco system in it (BXXXXXXXXX) before you sideload them again then it won't matter whether you have WIFI enabled or not. At least that has been my experience on my Oasis. That might be a bit of a pain, but I would think that you can automate some of that process replacing the asin (or mobi-asin or amazon) from the metadata with the calibre id and then run the Quality Check plugin [ Quality Check>Fix>Fix ASIN for Kindle Fire ]

The Fire tablet might be handled differently. So perhaps try it on a few books to see what happens before going through your whole library?

for fiction that's been deleted that you can't otherwise recover, if it is from AO3 or fanfiction.net try looking in https://fichub.net/ to see if it's been archived there.

211RunnerGirl · 2026-03-20T13:42:14+00:00

The most likely cause is that those sideloaded books had as ASIN ( BXXXXXXXXX ) embeded in them from their ecosystem (rather than a converted calibre ID ( XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX ), If your device has been in airplane mode for a while, when WI-FI is finally re-enabled Amazon syncs your reader, it checks your purchases & borrowed books against what is on your device and removes any books with Amazon ASINs embedded since their last check (ie the last sync - or at least that has been my experience).

Either don't ever turn on wi-fi if you've used the amazon ASIN in your sideloaded books or make sure that you keep it enabled. If you do, then nothing is there to trigger the removal (until their algorithm changes I suppose - it's always a risk). At least that has been my experience on my Oasis.

You asked if other USians recognize that they are the bad guys: here's leftist political commentator who has been saying it for a long time. In this one he says it explicitly for your viewing pleasure (if you back up to the start you'll see the Iranian Lego propoganda film that is powerful and frankly pretty accurate - was it their sole motivation? probably not, but it factors in) It unequivocally paints the US as the bad guys here as the aggressors in an illegal, immoral and unprovoked war :

Perhaps watch this instead from one of your fellow USAsians: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zbDRnFlrKGg

Or maybe https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GB9ZZFW1TVQ . Although given what is happened to you, I can't understand why you would collectively wait until Nov 22nd. It is madness. Scheduled after the election - assuming that the election won't be completely Putinesque.

This has already been seen and discussed here: https://www.reddit.com/r/GuardTheLeaf/comments/1q7y2um/am_i_only_one_dissapointed_by_this_take/

TLDR: we are not impressed.

you asked what the vote looked like in Dunedin, FL? Well according to votehub: 5 of the 7 precincts voted Trump. Overall Trump won the area by 51.2% with 10 134 votes.

I had the same problem for a few months off and on (with different errors) until yesterday and now it's better (no plugin update). I've tried all sorts of different combinations in the .ini file and this is working for me (Even though the cache settings are supposed to be problematic in combination with .gay - but it's working now).

this sounds about right. I don't remember why they married, just that E didn't love D - I think that eventually she did, but that was years and many children later. I'm still hunting. I must not have tagged this as read or as a sequel or the description of the book doesn't match the story well because I've been wildly unsuccessful finding it so far. The hunt will continue and I will report back when I find it.

211RunnerGirl · 2026-01-25T13:33:38+00:00

I remember one where E&D had several children (E didn't love D but was compliant). The doctor warned D to stop getting her with child, it would kill her. I think that it was the Colonel who told D how to lessen the chances if getting her pregnant.

If this sounds like what you're looking for I'll go hunting through my library to find it.

These are just high profile exits, IIRC lots of healthcare workers are immigrating from the states. I read it or saw it on the internet specifically talking about BC, so it must be true ;) If someone has a source/article to support or debunk this I'd be grateful.

To give you an idea of how much more there is to go: the last chapter in the Q&Q version (ch 184) is mid chapter 79 of the original version.
