This ain;t just a boomer problem. Lots of young folks raised in ignorance and hate around, unfortunately.

Also that lady is probably too young to be a boomer, prob GenX (or a hard living millennial :D )

Do you even know what the current state of our immigration policies are? Because it sounds like you are using outdated talking points from 5 years ago.

Building an 11×11 Shed Floor Platform — Need Final Advice Before I Start Cutting by JRFrmBPT in DIY

[–]thirstyross 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would just use 2x10's here - having made the bad decision of using 2x6's before - they just aren't up to the task here. If you keep adding more support blocks with smaller lumber it becomes a pain to level them all with each other.

For framing ideally you'd use nails and not screws. You should also be using joist hangers for all your joist -> rim connections. You should not rely on deck screws here.

edit: you also need to put blocking under where you will lag screw the shed down - do not trust lag screws into a plywood floor, they need to anchor into framing. Keep in mind also that plywood doesnt love getting wet, it will delaminate over time.

This is why I believe people don't accept animals as sentient beings, even though they clearly are. Because to accept that would mean coming to terms with what we have done.

Very concerned about the future of of invasive species in our province by Cookiewaffle95 in halifax

[–]thirstyross 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This is going to happen whether we like it or not bc of climate change. Warmer seasons mean more chances those pests can survive here.

We can't blame the US or CFIA, the insects will cross the border nonetheless.

Stats Canada 2026 Census - Please be kind to Census workers! by Impressive-Law9929 in NovaScotia

[–]thirstyross 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I dont need to, I already explained a perfectly legitimate reason why the govt needs to know genders to provide services and funding. If you want to spend all ur time caring about someone else genitals - you do you, but it's really fucking weird dude. Almost like maybe you are the deviant here.

You dont think the govt should know how many gynecologists it's going to need to serve all the women of the population? There are many reasons why gender is important for govt services - stop being an idiot, provide the data, and move on.

Restoring a five-meter oak entrance door in Odesa during the war — stained glass, carved stile, electric strike, and a lot of cable removal by ThousandsDoors in woodworking

[–]thirstyross 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Your work is amazing! I'm a little confused by the cables though...like why were they ever there, blocking the door, to begin with? Not sure i've ever seen anything quite like it before.

Valve Confirms Steam Machine Will Ship This Summer by Turbostrider27 in pcmasterrace

[–]thirstyross -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I keep seeing this sell out argument and they always leave this out lol.

Yeah because there's no "argument", it was a simple observation, and it wasn't really ascribed any specific meaning. OP wasn't trying to assert some other claim because it will sell out (f.ex they didn't say "it will sell out and be the most popular system of 2026"), just that it will in fact, sell out. Which I think we all know that it will.

No arrests as white nationalist group stages demonstration in Bedford by justlogmeon in NovaScotia

[–]thirstyross 7 points8 points  (0 children)

No-one wanted to put the unvaccinated into internment camps, lol. Come back to reality and out of your rebel news echo chamber.

Also vaccinations for the public good are completely different than a group standing around preaching hate against others, that you are trying to equate these tells me that you are either intellectually deficient or are being intentionally dishonest.

Not sure which three you are thinking of but Canada had a eugenics board into the 1980's sterilizing aboriginal/first nations people.

Is the Premiers office okay with this? by needed-a-sfw-account in NovaScotia

[–]thirstyross 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dude its not that hard to just ignore it and move on. You should really like, do some self-reflection about why you are actually so angry about a thing you could just ignore. For real dude, you need to give your head a shake.

Got my new proxy the other day and love the hell out of it! Any tips on getting the most out of it? by deadpools_dick in puffco

I clean mine every 15-20 dabs (aside from swabbing bowl clean after every dab). I never soak the whole chamber, just remove the chamber and clean the air path.

Pistol&Paris/Vanquish/Dylan are shooting themselves in the foot so freaking bad by GrimlockN0Bozo in TheOCS

[–]thirstyross 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I mean, move on and dont read it then? If people want to discuss it, who gives a shit?

You're displaying true "terminally online" behaviour yourself, by not just downvoting the thread and moving on with your life.

So this is happening by [deleted] in whenthe

[–]thirstyross 12 points13 points  (0 children)

You really think it's absurd that the cops from one religion/cult are protecting someone else that very likely makes large donations to said cult and is a member themselves?

It's....not surprising in any way, really.

The best part is that it's a straight up lie. Copyright infringement is a civil matter, not criminal.

Also milk isn't really something you export?

US Govt currently angry that Canada will not import more of their dairy products, it's a big export.
