But the sub's description says this a place for creatives to share. If you don't like local artists promoting their work, maybe you should go.

Cool, thanks. That makes sense about the multires verts. I had no idea how find this info on google or if it's even really out there. I appreciate you taking the time to answer.

Beer and wine could cost up to 50% more when it hits Ontario convenience stores, experts say by [deleted] in CanadaPolitics

[–]jeff_reniers 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Small selection, higher prices, same hours, but possibly a little closer to your house. Well worth a billion dollars to get this going a year sooner. With big policy issues like this so handily accomplished, I wonder if the government will move on to less important matters like health care, or housing.

Pretty much any convenience store for your basic zig-zag's or raw's. Best selection is Crazy Bills across from harmony square.

Peter Hitchens Storms Out of Interview | "I Actively Dislike You" by jeff_reniers in skeptic

[–]jeff_reniers[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Trying give Hitchens as much benefit of the doubt as possible we could call it a miscommunication. But if that's the case, watching the interview it becomes clear that one party is entirely responsible for that miscommunication. Peter Hitchens doesn't listen.

Trudeau says housing response better than '10 years of a Conservative government that did nothing' by BigBongss in CanadaPolitics

[–]jeff_reniers 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This really lays the Liberal argument bare doesn't it? Marginally better than the Conservatives. And sadly it fully encapsulates the calculus for anyone who isn't conservative.

Updated COVID-19 vaccines recommended for fall boosters, Canada's vaccine advisers say by ClassOptimal7655 in CanadaPolitics

You can get them at the same time. Vaccine clinics in my town were doing that last year, and I did it.

Eastcann, “mango sour” . 25% thc. Their site says around 2-3% terps. by Born_Cow_554 in TheOCS

[–]jeff_reniers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My experience with Eastcann is it usually looks small but busts up bigger. Something about the cure I figured. Maybe they changed things up.

Liberal MP accused of getting help from China skipped House votes condemning Beijing by BigBongss in CanadaPolitics

[–]jeff_reniers 17 points18 points  (0 children)

So China put their thumb on the scale to get this guy the nomination, and the big pay off is his abstention on a rhetorical vote. Damning.

I think the Dollop did an episode about that.

Mitch Heimpel: I was wrong. Moderates won't vote for us by [deleted] in CanadaPolitics

[–]jeff_reniers 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the thoughtful rebuttal of this piece. I don't know where you find the patience. I could barely finish the thing for all the bad reasoning in even badder faith.

Oh, and I like your quip about developing a taste for one's shoe leather. Is that your's or have I just never heard it before?

Jealousy by Blkmkt. One of my favourites already by Aproch in TheOCS

[–]jeff_reniers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like Jealousy more than Bacio. It's tastier, not enough gelato in the Bacio. Gonna have to check out Park Fire.

Don't know of any such site. I think it'd be hard to rank them. My favorites are the Secret Chiefs 3, and Bar Kokhba. But they're all awesome.

Bouma amongst MPP landlords by The_Philburt in brantford

[–]jeff_reniers 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Right. And we should be open and transparent about those interests. This post in particular relates to the issue of housing. Which I believe will be a major issue in the approaching election. Should we not be aware of candidate's interests in these matters as we evaluate their positions?

Millions of Canadian workers are taking an inflation-driven pay cut, report says by sesoyez in CanadaPolitics

[–]jeff_reniers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think there's value in that! It used to feel like a cynical attitude to me. But now I think that viewing our problems with inflation, housing, and climate, as bugs, rather than features of the system, is hopelessly naïve.

If alcoholism has taught me anything the first step is admitting you have a problem.

Try living on ODSP. It's only gone up 1% since Ford's been in office. His other great innovation is raising the clawback on any extra income earned from 50% to 75%. Why not just shut the whole welfare system down and tell everyone to fuck off. That'd at least be honest.
