  • Damn. I should have fact checked myself before repeating something I heard. Now I’m slightly more likely to die.

  • Over half the people who have ever lived have yet to die. I’ll file this one under “possible, but unproven”

  • I’ve been laid off both ways. It’s definitely less humane to layoff someone via email. It’s just easier for the employer, and they don’t care about you.

  • Right. This is what I see in the quote. No one, in my entire life, has ever simply offered me an amazing opportunity. I’ve had to apply, interview, fight for that opportunity.

    Who is getting opportunities handed to them they’re not qualified for? What world does this guy live in?

  • It is. I hate Meta, but this isn’t them. This appears on any site that isn’t loading properly.

  • The annoying thing about federation is that we have to convince our friends to stop putting up with it. Not an actual argument against. I just wish I could convert everyone I follow over.

  • My issue is that other carriers are sinking to meet Flair. I no longer get to pick my seats when I book on other airlines. I now have to pay not to sit next to the toilet. One checked bag is no longer included.

  • I have a conspiracy theory that they are connected, and all the mapmakers are conspiring to make maps with only the US on them. I’m even willing to go so far as to say that Alaska and Hawaii aren’t just off the coast.

  • You can’t sell animals like these. My guess is that the ones that can be released will be, and the ones who wouldn’t make it in the wild will be donated to other aquariums, so they can get the ongoing care they need.

  • Many zoos and aquariums have animals that can’t be rehabilitated and released. For instance, the Vancouver Aquarium has mostly blind seals because they couldn’t make it on their own. Having them at the aquarium also allows those seals to raise young foundlings so they can be released later. It also generates awareness of the amazing work that the Marine Mammal Rescue does to help so many aquatic mammals that have been hurt by humans.

  • Thus began the Fry v Onion Ring War of 2024

  • Or proportional representation

  • I don’t know about you, but I had the Netscape Navigator icon.

  • So bizarre. Apart from snow, Alberta also has so much wind and sun. USE IT!

  • Maybe Bob Loblaw should write it in his Law Blog

  • You don’t take your milk with an IV while you sleep? Weirdo!

  • Having lived in both the States and Canada, this is actually very untrue. Canada is SOOOO different. Yes, we import polarized opinions from the States, and yes they are our biggest trade partner, but we are still EXTREMELY different.

    Look at how we handled the pandemic. Per person, our rate was 1/10th as bad.

    Look at how we handle mass shootings. Healthcare. Diversity. Climate. Public spaces.

    We may have similarities, and our crazies are influenced by their crazies, but we are very very separate countries.

  • The fact that we have to wait until America gets its act together is frustrating. They can’t even pass a simple bill like this.
