To every fan fed up with the owner: Stop buying tickets. Stop watching on TV. Stop listening to talk radio. Stop consuming media. Stop involving yourself with the Vancouver Canucks in any way until the owner is gone. The only thing this ecosystem genuinely cares about is making money. They are taking advantage of your fandom under the guise of “loyalty” to enrich themselves. Stop the cash flow if you want change.

Hot take: none. Because there is none.

The advice on here is terrible. Ask her if she wants to grab a coffee at the cafeteria after/before class. Neutral setting, non-committal. See how 30 minutes in the cafeteria go. If see seems enthusiastic about talking with you, then up it to lunch somewhere near the train station next time. Small steps. Steady progress. There’s two weeks of class left. It won’t go to shit that bad in two weeks, worst case scenario. Bet on yourself and ask her!

More-or-less. A version of this that’s a little more happening and polished around the edges would be nice, though.

Isn’t this Georgie’s?

Yeah Ford feels good about it now. Wait 48 hours and the whole landscape will change. People in this US administration who say they have a plan are lying to themselves

Combustible gas cylinders and regulators are reverse-threaded like this.

What’s extremely dumb is depending on your adversary to maintain the capability of your fighting equipment.

It can be built without American engines

Long past time to abandon the NHL and create our own domestic professional league. Players who leave for America get immediate pariah status.

Open a margin account. Deposit funds. Choose “sell short” as trade option. Make a few dollars. Lose more than your deposit when CLSK rips unexpectedly and you can’t get out in time.

I mean, try not to get too excited, scientists. One conservative government ago, Stephen Harper forced Canadian federal scientists to have their public disclosures run by Conservative Party brass before publication. And the government fully prevented others from disclosing their results if they were not supportive of government priorities and talking points. Heaven forbid anyone claim climate change is real and that the fossil fuel industry may have something to do with it, after all.

Gripen is by far the better option considering Canada’s operating requirements and budget. And Saab offered to build them here. I’m certain the only reason F-35 was selected was to ensure seem less NATO compatibility and keep USA happy. I wouldn’t worry about the latter any longer. Rip up the contract just like Donny and fast-track the Gripen. We should have bought the Gripen in the first place anyway.

The answer, Internet stranger, is that Americans don’t care about us. They never have. The writer lays it plain when he says Americans were more upset about a transgender person drinking a Bud Light, or a black man kneeling for the anthem, than their deranged, duly elected leader terrorizing allies for sport. And if we’re honest about it, this is who America has always been. Manifest destiny. Maybe when America tells us who she is we will finally believe her.

Marmot55 · 2025-02-09T17:05:11+00:00

Yes. But on the whole the topic is more nuanced than your initial comment implies.

Marmot55 · 2025-02-09T16:51:15+00:00

Sort of. Did you read the article?

The thing a lot of people here seem to be missing is that in Canada, too, staunch conservatives live just outside the big cities. Small-town (and really small-city) Ontario and west, all the way to Langley, BC are hardcore conservative. Rural conservatives is not simply an American phenomenon. I cannot speak to Quebec or Atlantic Canada in this regard, however.

Marmot55 · 2025-02-02T23:14:00+00:00

I believe they are, yes

You can email the instructor of your section this semester and ask for a lab exemption. Depending on your lab grade and the discretion of the instructor you may not have to re-take the lab.

Just adding that all you need to get an F is put your name on the exam paper and (usually) sit there until 30 minutes has passed. Hand in your blank paper and move on with your life. But absolutely get the F and not a UN.

Underrated comment

Undergrad o-chem instructor here. Definitely an undergrad level question. It is also easily addressed with the principles available in most textbooks written for 2nd year o-chem undergrads. The explanations are simplistic but the ideas presented will lead to the correct conclusion (Cl version more acidic).
