CBS News Slammed For Saying Vance And Walz Will Have To Fact-Check Each Other at VP Debate

  • I would expect him to ask Putin for help in controlling 'the mob' in exchange for Alaska and the rest of the North Pole, so Putin can rule the world.

  • There are other countries to move to, but with America's current anti-immigration stance I'm not sure who's still got their welcome mats out.

  • It was sparked by a December 2023 complaint from Larry Grogan, a Watford, Ont., dealer, who accused his business partner of stealing them. The man is alleged to have transferred the titles into his own name, over a 4.5-year period, at Service Ontario outlets via forged documents, with many of the vehicles then sold on to unsuspecting customers.

  • In Canada we have early voting days (usually a couple of weeks before the actual election day and often on weekends) for anyone who can't vote on the actual day.

    But we also have a functioning judicial system and far less right-wing self-righteousness than America does (so far anyway, but it is migrating up here at an increasing pace).

  • From the article ...

    The flock is comprised of hair sheep, a type of breed that naturally sheds its hair fibers and often is used for meat.

  • "We need to take a closer look, to see if there's anything more we can do," she said.

    No, you don't need a 'closer look'. You do need to get off your political ass and do something about cops murdering First Nations people like it's 1850.

  • But later Wednesday evening, Higgins said the exact opposite. “It’s all true. I can put up another controversial post tomorrow if you want me to,” he told CNN. “I mean, we do have freedom of speech. I’ll say what I want.

    “It’s not a big deal to me. It’s like something stuck to the bottom of my boot. Just scrape it off and move on with my life,” Higgins said.

    Jfc. He talks like a kid whose parents were afraid to use discipline ... because they figured he might kill them if they did.

  • And we've been able to cure the other ones with antibiotics for a long time.

    Except we now have antibiotic-resistant versions that are pushing the extents to which we can cure those STDs.

    And condoms are cheap, available, and socially encouraged

    But there's still a contingent of men out there who refuse to wear them.

  • Israel's right wing nationalists are leading the charge.

  • "Evil grows in cracks and holes, and lives in people's minds." Terry Jacks

  • I would never want to be a teenager now. Like having casual sex can give lifelong diseases, the right wing bearing down on everyone's freedoms (except theirs ofc), hitchhiking is a death trap, etc etc.

    If I was growing up now I probably wouldn't make it to 20.

  • Yeah. We were poor and ignorant too.

    I remember when I realized how dangerous it was when a girl died ... essentially drowning in the condensed gas fumes in her lungs. That woke us up quick.

  • When I was much younger we just called it huffing, whether it was spray paint cans or gas.

  • Under those rules, streaming services that are not Canadian-owned and have more than CAD $25 million (approx. USD $18.5 million) in revenue in Canada annually are required to pay 5% of that revenue into funds that subsidize Canadian content and creators.

  • Because streaming is international while radio is local.

    If international sites wanna play their music in Canada, then they should pay for the privilege.
