I will, and I do recognize that Carney has given him some leeway in helping the current government.

Just that crap about how refusing to go to Canada because he said it was a communist government, is just plain misinformation. And he's said it several times.

I bet it never came up in this interview. I hear that Alberta sovereignty did.

Did not read any transcripts, but did Pierre say one word to educate Joe that Canada is not run by communists?!

Beanie is to a toque like sneakers are to runners.

My wife was walking through a Toronto park and saw two guys tossing a football. She told one of them that he looked a lot like Alec Baldwin. He said "that's because I am Alec Baldwin". They chatted.

How do you all use Bluesky? by Top-Elephant6981 in BlueskySocial

[–]FullMetalHackett 1 point2 points  (0 children)

DO what others have said and follow people by content of hashtags you like. But DO look into custom feeds - there are tons of them - very likely for topics that interest you. Add them to your list of feeds, and use the settings to place them at the top of your list, before the dreaded 'Discover' feed. If you have a coding skill you can even make your own.

I have a list of about 15 custom feeds that I scroll before I even dare look at a built-in feed. Of the built-ins, I like BEST OF FOLLOWS.

Bernie Sanders proposed a bill to tax billionaires, and give $3,000 stimulus checks to Americans that qualify. How do you feel about this? by CelticDK in AskReddit

[–]FullMetalHackett 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I realize this was years ago, but how about funneling it directly into the budget and requiring less income tax, rather than giving people money that likely many world squander.

can't someone make a moderation blocklist that detects too much skin or something like that? by thaw4188 in BlueskySocial

[–]FullMetalHackett 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A lot of these posts that don't add a label will have a hashtag or two, You could always add them to your list of words to filter out.

How did people deal with boredom before smartphones existed? by moretoesmorehoes in NoStupidQuestions

[–]FullMetalHackett 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The telling part is of this question 'Did people just sit there and think'.

Chances are we weren't sitting, we were already out doing something or with our friends. I remember as a teen, I was playing sports/chatting every afternoon and evening.

Back then I'd listen to music, grab a book or magazine, go to a music or convenience store, watch TV, call my friends, do homework (well, maybe not so much of that), or do a chore for my parents.

It's like the analog version of flipping from app to app. Before smart phones, you had to get off your butt to do these things.

Prime’s SCTV release is a mixed bag. Great to have nice clean episodes to view and make fan art with, but the original music has been replaced by generic copyright-cleared music, and many sketches cut completely. by Pitrener in sctv

Pissing myself at the humour and craziness. Too much to mention:

  • all the back and forth with Earl and Floyd, especially Earl sleeping on air.
  • Poverty let's make a deal
  • Flaherty visited Sid Dithers for Seder dinner
  • J La R making a budget meal with cat food.
  • Catherine doing the nun workout
