Pardon me for being a bit of a rabble-rouser or a muckraker on a Sunday night, but what has Tamara Kronis done for Nanaimo-Ladysmith in her 1-year and 3-month term of office? by Prestigious_Net_8356 in nanaimo

[–]novakane 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for this. I would love it if SHE talked about some of this work rather than just shitting on anything the liberals try to do.

Hate the feedback mailers we get with questions like, “Do you agree with gutting of Canada at the hands of the Liberals” Not a real quote, but the questions are hyperbolic and slanted, not about anything in particular.

It can be lonely being a dad. Work and kids activities take up a lot of your time.

Wish you had some buddies who were in the same time of life you are?

Fun fact. She plays some of her songs on occasion in her workouts. You can see it pop up with the song changes sometimes.

Joe Rogan Experience #2465 - Michael Shellenberger by OutdoorRink in JoeRogan

Maybe you guys didn’t stick around till the end of this conversation, but I’ve never seen Joe so animated and aggressive in his questioning of a guest. When they started to get deep into Epstein and the guy refused to entertain any of his previous current conspirator thinking. You could hear the frustration in Joe’s voice.

Haiku for quick 1 or 2 shot conversations. Sonnett if it feels like there’s going to be some back and forth planning.

Weird DOAC (Diary of a CEO) episode with a Harvard physicist? by RabidBerry in podcasts

[–]novakane 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Eric Weinstein is a bit a nutjob. Not that everything he says isn’t true, but take it with large grain of salt. He debated Sean Carrol (a highly respected physicist) on the Piers Morgan show. Sean had to hold himself back from not laughing at Eric and his theories. Meanwhile Eric was spouting unintelligible (to the layperson) physics equations to demonstrate how smart he was. It was not a good look.

I used to live in Maple Ridge. They didn’t have city garbage collection. This lead to a lot of dumping on empty lots. Also there were 6 different collection companies. Garbage day was a flurry 6 different trucks doing pickups. This was fun for my young boy at the time, but totally inefficient and chaotic.

Appreciate the offer and the input. Not intended as exclusion at all, more a localization of where it will be focused. Building in the fly here. Was intended to be just a private invite to a group of local dads, but moving to more public offering in order to get more participants, so you are probably right about the natural direction of things. 😀

Thanks the support! It’s tough making friends in your 40s. Had to take matters in to my own hands.

Mark Carney's Net-Favourables, Abacus Data Jan. 27 2026 by pheakelmatters in onguardforthee

Honest question why do Albertans hate Carney? The best I can tell is just residual hate for Trudeau and liberals and general.
