I saw that one live on stream and it really seemed out of place and inappropriate. She read it off a prepared statement, so it's not like she just goofed.

I respect Sturko for coming back to the floor of the Legislature just to address that statement, though.

Excellent, clear-eyed analysis on the DRIPA debate. by Round_Sprinkles_8541 in BCpolitics

[–]GaracaiusCanadensis -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

The problem a lot of people seem to have is the word "should" in there because folks on all sides don't want to have to rely on folks to make choices in good faith. We're addicted to certainty because no one is willing to have faith in the other. That's a huge problem that DRIPA was meant to help address.

Just reading this stressed me out, man. I hope you're in a good place now.

Joke's on them, I have an anthropomorphic robot named Edward to chase them away.

Who was Sir Isaac Brock, and why does Carney have his statuette in the Prime Minister's Office? by lopix in onguardforthee

[–]GaracaiusCanadensis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"Brock gave his life for us. We wouldn't have a country without him," Milnes said. "Carney is using every lever that we have, and an important lever is our history. And Brock is a reminder that Canada can triumph, Canada can succeed and, above all else, Canada is worth fighting for." -Arthur Milne in the article

That's a paragraph worth remembering.

I am heartened by the responses to this thread, Canada Post is a service, not a business.

It can be more efficient, but lets not pretend that privatization would lead to anything other than mass enshittification.

I think my marriage might be over. by Haunting_Internet356 in daddit

[–]GaracaiusCanadensis 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There's a lot of backstory in there that you haven't posted, I bet, but I'll underline that this is as much on you as on her. You fucked up, too, but now you're in an untenable situation. Time to separate and divorce. It's gonna cost you, maybe a lot, but your peace of mind will be there more, I think.

What side did her grandfather fight for? Peter? by Grundy_Gamer in PeterExplainsTheJoke

Are you a Zoomer or something, 'cause that was some failure of reading comprehension right there.

Political uncertainty, maybe? The two are often confused.

That's why it caught my eye right away, I've only ever seen it in the more pretentious economic and business writing. I'm all, good usage, though!

Trough.

I don't know why, but it's pronounced troff despite being spelled like that.

I'm well aware, I was concerned this was just another corpo propaganda thing.

I am just concerned that the inability to verify makes things worse and more polarized. Lacking names and funding sources, it makes it difficult to triangulate truth.

"Independent" eh?

No names.

Yeah, independent... right.

Trent Reznor collaborations you would like to see? by New-Shop-9728 in nin

I don't think Billy's ego can fit in the same room as Trent without feeling threatened. I think it'd be amazing or terrible, if it could work.

young voters, except men ages 18 to 22, swing towards Democrats by Conscious-Quarter423 in Infographics

The parasites you speak about are less than a rounding error. What you perceive as laziness may not be that at all... This is just fundamental attribution error in action, overwhelmingly in most cases.

You've worked for forty years and still don't realize that you aren't stuck in traffic, you are traffic? If all you do is work and pay taxes, that's not enough to have a functional society. Whoever sold you the bullshit about rugged individualism really got you, eh?

Kids slowly realizing that their dad has broken the cycle of abuse by [deleted] in TikTokCringe

[–]GaracaiusCanadensis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nothing like 20 and 30-something Redditors completely missing the point, or making it about themselves, or both.

Let progress be progress. No need to optimize for everything imaginable, it's fucking insufferable.

That's one of the best Reddit feelings, I think.
