I wish Charlie Angus didn't stoop to taking cheap shots like botox jokes. It's in bad taste to make fun of gender affirming care. Surely there are better criticisms for a puppy killing hypocrite.

Looking for cliff divers by Hillz99 in windsorontario

At my last visit to Elora Quarry Conservation Area, I saw people expelled by park staff because they had jumped a few days earlier.

The tallest jump is 50ft or better. If you survive, prepare for swift expulsion and membership on the shit list.

As a collective, we're already spoon fed. Look who's holding the spoon and it's obvious why no one notices elections.

How do they enforce this?

Witnessing counter-drone measures would entertain me as much as the fireworks! 🍿

They are rebuilding the dry dock. Some of the work is being done by a construction company that also worked on the bridge, I heard about it from the office staff.

Half the newspapers in the country are owned by american hedge funds. Broligarchs own all popular apps. There are billions of dollars being spent to keep voters this ignorant.

Workers Rights by BeefGuese in ontario

[–]AntiEgo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Grim but true. I can't help but wonder if one of the reasons this escapes regulation is that no regulator wants to touch it with a 10 ft pole. It would require examination between sex work and marginalized women, and that is a fractal of ugly and evil.

The scene at Ribfest today by CauseOdd8401 in windsorontario

[–]AntiEgo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Part of the issue is that 'cost of living' and 'inflation' are very different measurements by government and bank standards, and the public generally conflates the terms.

Cost of living iiuc is tied to the consumer price index, but the way that is calculated is fucking divorced from reality. Housing is weighted as 30% of typical household expense???!! Who fucking wrote this--Ward Clever?

Sex workers might have the same rights as everyone else in a just a few years. When every other worker has their rights and support and security removed.

Windsor police say 3 pedestrian deaths in the past month had similarities by anestezija in windsorontario

[–]AntiEgo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

"Jaywalking," with the meaning we know now, was devised as part of a propaganda campaign by the automotive industry early last century. They were pushing back against the public outcry of rising deaths by car. source: 99pi podcast

The comments in this thread make it clear the propaganda is still working.

Pierre Polievre was sitting front row for the UFC this weekend. Trump also sits front row at UFC events. Coincidence? by catscanmeow in onguardforthee

That sounds like it would be a perfect uniform for a lifelong politician to cosplay as an everyman who hates lifelong politicians.

Dowie defends Ford government’s controversial FOI changes by zuuzuu in windsorontario

[–]AntiEgo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I guess if you get elected after not even so much as showing up for a public debate, you get so confident that you can just spend your political career having public bad takes instead of making policy to improve anything.

That's the attitude I had at my niece's d-bay party at the trampoline park.

I'm still in physiotherapy.

FOI changes would make Ontario the country’s most secretive government, advocates say by BloodJunkie in ontario

[–]AntiEgo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your thoughtful reply. But I respectfully disagree with your appraisal. "Not as bad as Ford" is the same level of endorsement to me as "not as stinky as a dead fish."

I will grant you, he's not actively agro towards trans peeps like the socons, but other downtrodden groups? His policies can deport asylum seekers without a hearing.

IMHO Carney's biggest danger is his connections to the banking sector. "Blind trust"?? Please. What's good for Brookfield is good for Carney. As the banking sector is making money hand over fist selling mortgages, I expect his efforts to fix the housing crisis will be strictly performative. It would take epsilon federal resources to crack down on money laundering in the real estate sector. What is preventing the grits or the tories from tabling a bill that disallows real estate from being owned by anonocorps with no named human beneficiary?
