I know but the original quote is who killed who, so figured accuracy beats grammar.

I tried to find out but need to make an account to see more than a couple lies.

The bar fits many many more people, some of whom you don't already know!

For most of the world's population, things have significantly improved by almost every conceivable measure.

I strongly recommend Roslings book, Factfulness. The difference between how people think things have changed and what's happened is wild.

Edit: Just saw the (US tag, sorry.)

You'd think the shell would be enough but nope, armadillos had to go for biological warfare too. Jerks!

I'll put an /s there next time. I kinda assumed people would figure I didn't actually think RFK was out there releasing plague but ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[–] MyBrainHurts@lemmy.ca 18 points 3 weeks ago (6 children)

The plague? RFK has been on the job half a year and the plague is already back?

Hmmm. I kinda feel it's only having the one life that makes me want make sure that I'm a good person, it's not like I get a do over.

Erin O'Toole was the most left leaving Conservative nominee in decades, if not ever. We still complained about him/the prospect of him winning, yeah?

 

Just seemed like a kinda cute story. Apparently, Carney's been an Oilers fan since the 80s. Makes him seem more human and normal (remember that infamous Harper commercial were he assured us he was a normal human who liked human things like streaming television and he had several favourite shows? Goddamn weirdo.)

Apologies if this should be elsewhere!

 

Hi Folks, a lot of people had good thoughts about shows on CBC Gem and I realized we hardly touched movies. So, let's do that!

 

I figure a few of of us are trying CBC Gem, might help if we shared knowledge and recommendations!

 

For obvious reasons I'm trying to be more local and cutting out American produce, so I figured a CSA box (Community Supported Agriculture) would be a good move. Unfortunately, DuckDuckGo has given a bewildering collection of results and I've heard some CSAs are less good than others. Have any of you fine folks used any, have any recommendations or anything else that might help?

 

Seeing as they're getting targeted right now and are first on trump's chopping block...

I mean, it's not like we buy lumps of steel but... I dunno, I figure I'd turn it to the wisdom of the crowds. I know steel/aluminum are mostly input products but there have to be finished products from friendly countries/Canada which use steel and aluminum and thus support our industry, albeit indirectly, right?

 

Very well put. Saw it on bluesky, hadn't seen it here. Apologies if this is the wrong community!

 

I'm thinking of my friends and family who aren't on an alternative social media that loves Linux and Star Trek memes. I've been recommending stuff (I'll put in the comments) they can do that I think is easy and helpful but curious to see what your thoughts/recommendations are!

 

Was about to renew my Cypress pass and double checked this.

As far as I can tell, Cypress is owned by Boyne Resorts (Michigan based.)

Seymour seems owned by a local Vancouver family while Grouse is owned by Northland Properties Corporation which started in BC and is headquartered in Vancouver.

Looks like I'll be trying out Seymour next season!
