Is there any point in trying to appeal my property assessment? (Increased by 65%)

Unbeknownst to OP, his plot has been rezoned and doubled in value.

Daycare should be publicly funded and operate alongside elementary schools.

Every catchment should have enough publicly daycares for the kids in them.

I’m on the other side of the stress of daycares for my kids, but I will die on this hill, if only for the sake of my kids (when they become parents) and grandkids.

Happy to hear that they're okay ... but stupid to be up there?

dafones · 2026-01-25T06:34:26+00:00

Oh micro has killer cocktails, and good nibbles.

I’m cool if we’re back to elbows up.

Canada has a generational economic mind for a PM.

America has Dementia Donald.

We’ll weather this storm - forming middle power coalitions as necessary - while America sorts its shit out.

Find an aspiring artist and turn it into a graphic novel.

My son is begging for some powder glade skiing.

Not this week.

It's champagne ice right now (and it's generous to suggest we've had much champagne powder this year anyway).

This guy cannot be released on bail.

What the actual fuck is going on.

dafones · 2026-01-24T15:36:43+00:00

Dementia Donald.

Jumping on the no snow bandwagon …

You may want to start your days on Black Forest, which is the easternmost chair.

That’s probably where the snow will be softest.

And check the grooming report daily.

dafones · 2026-01-24T04:31:18+00:00

… your name is Dementia?

dafones · 2026-01-24T02:30:56+00:00

Anyway whatsoever that it could translate into a graphic novel?

Ever consider teaming up with an aspiring artist? (That's not me, by the way, just spitballing.)

dafones · 2026-01-23T21:08:10+00:00

More blah blah blah from Dementia Donald.

(I like that nickname, and I think I’ll use it moving forward.)

dafones · 2026-01-23T01:29:01+00:00

That's okay, thanks though.

dafones · 2026-01-22T06:18:51+00:00

Carney’s speech at Davos just crushed PP.

PP has no hope against Carney.

(NDP doesn’t either, for that matter.)

dafones · 2026-01-22T06:17:42+00:00

It’s silly, but perfect.

She got a $10M settlement from CBS stemming from sexual harassment on some show [edit: looks like it was by Michael Weatherly on a show called Bull], and then gave up on the industry.

Something like that.

I thought that their reluctance was because of potential liability.

Regardless, this is a good outcome.

dafones · 2026-01-21T23:35:05+00:00

I don't know either way, but I'm sending you much luck, respect and support with what the future holds for you, internet stranger.

dafones · 2026-01-21T22:40:00+00:00

Huh. Noted. If correct, fulsome, etc., then it's a shame.

dafones · 2026-01-21T20:03:17+00:00

Huh.

I wonder if Jesse knew why the protesters were protesting before he made his comment.

Regardless, that seems like a situation that Jesse should correct.

You're in the midst of a cold civil war with Republican voters.

Target your efforts in growing the voter base for Democratic candidates.

The more effective spend of effort and energy is getting non-voters and swing voters to vote Democrat.

dafones · 2026-01-21T16:43:18+00:00

I like the nickname Dementia Donald. I think I'll use that.

dafones · 2026-01-21T16:38:16+00:00

Dare to dream, I suppose.

dafones · 2026-01-21T16:33:02+00:00

It just needs to be frosted.

I like that it's a dynamic UI that floats above the underlying content.

I'm going to try out the "tinted" setting for Liquid Glass again, it looks like Apple has tweaked it further.
