I wish the collapse community were collectively a billionaire so we would get the airtime these dipshits do. We were decades ahead of these idiots when the range of adaptations were better and more numerous and the severity of consequences less dire.

By the time Ray Dalio says something publically, you could ask any shlub off the street first. My favourite Dalio truism is:

  • Ray Dalio sticks his hand out the window in a hurricane and says "it's raining".

Billionaires don't demonstrate the ability to handle the complexity of systems. They will murder the support systems tgat brought them their wealth and power and take evrryone down with them.

Sadly, yes. I searched but apparently fat fingered. I found it now.

A very reasonable position. I for one supoort this wholeheartedly. Sensible civilian firearms laws support in a symbiotic way the Canadian military. A wider body of markmens who maintain profficiency after service. It also supports a domestic small arms industry that can switch to military small arms when needed and pivot back. Canadian jobs, serving Canadian defense, using Canadian materials. It's also an export market.

I love the idea of 2 years mandatory military or civil service. Around the end of high school. Engagement, development and readiness of a much wider spectrum of society in common service to each other. There are very very few downsides.

Edit: I'm also a strong proponent of nukes. Nothing outrageous. Just a minimum viable second strike capability like the UK. Just enough to tell hungry eyes to fuck off and look elsewhere.

I don't want an AI assistant. I don't want a smart TV. I don't want a driver assist car. I would love and electric car, but if it comes witb all this extra bullshit.

Does lemmy have an equivalent of /r/collapse?

Close. This is why I mastubate frantically infront of the cameras. It satifies they kink for surveilance and my kink in exhibitionism.

I adore CBC. I can't and won't live without them.

In the morning I awake to CBC radio and continue throughout my commute.

I then listen to The Current as I press into my day.

I listen to the news on my way home. I'll pickup Front Burner, the National and Marketplace.

I edify my mind and soul with CBC ideas in the evening. Nahlah Ayed is my celebrity crush.

I entertain myself with the debaters, hockey night in Canada, quirks and quarks.

I get my Music from CBC Radio 3 mostly, but Marvin's room and Afterdark are there too.

I can think of no other institution more important to myself and the country than the CBC.

(Delete) I was beaten to it.

It's only a failure if they wanted to do that kind of business. If I open an Italian restaurant and someone orders Thai, did I fail?
