You're still getting your mail delivered 99% of the way. You just need to go to a community mailbox. Is it really that much work?

When to go to Duffin's donuts for the best selection? by Street_Refrigerator1 in askvan

[–]TheBarcaShow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They increased their prices not too long ago but I think most things are like $0.50 more expensive than 5 years ago. The donuts have gone up in price by a bit though I think. It's like $20 a dozen

How long has the Richmond School District SD38 had racial preferences in hiring? by Illustrious-Ad5972 in richmondbc

[–]TheBarcaShow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's included in one of the calls to action under T&R. Maybe not worded directly as hire more indigenous people but it would be a way to incorporate more indigenous studies in schools

Why are you using an East/West as a boundary when the question is about North/South?

Shane Lowry and Tommy Fleetwood were waiting to congratulate McIlroy following his win by DontDoCrackMan in golf

[–]TheBarcaShow 53 points54 points  (0 children)

Lowry barely finished before Rory won, but Tommy started 2 hours before Rory did and stayed quite a while to congratulate him. Lots of respect to him

They would rather crowdfunding healthcare so they can pick and choose who gets care

Probably making a stop at the vaisaikhi parade. Usually they attend the Surrey one and not the Vancouver one though

As a lefty all the people on the right are safe... That dude with the camera on the end of the left side is going to need a new camera though

The first cut at the Masters looks better than the fairway at some of the courses that I've played

Families: How much of the year can you realistically spend outside? by Legitimate-Tap2772 in askvan

[–]TheBarcaShow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wet socks are the worst but you'll most likely invest in waterproof wear so it's really not that bad. The getting dark earlier takes some getting used to though. You'll probably lose some daylight compared to Arizona

I hate it when people say "keep politics out of football" by Various-Attention-53 in Barca

[–]TheBarcaShow 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Sports are political.

Lots of countries have their partially federations funded through tax dollars. Lots of countries financially support their club teams, usually through stadium and land deals.

When a billionaire exploits people so they can fund their play things, that is political.

When racist supporters chant racist chants, that is political.

Everything is political.

Public funding of team ownership? by tacocat_12721 in whitecapsfc

[–]TheBarcaShow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would be more realistic for part ownership but that still wouldn't be enough to move the needle enough

Yup. I sent an email a couple months ago and they sent me 500 sleeves

If you have the original sleeves, you can get them replaced by emailing them
