eat the same foods as you grew up with

That's unfair. Food has a subjective component, so naturally most people who enjoyed their childhoods will rate the foods of their youth higher than others might.

I'm wondering how you are measuring "common sense" that arrives at "usually false." Are you ignoring obviously common sense things, like "the sky is up" -- since that's just common sense?

A lot of people don't think. But a lot of people do think critically, and they just think differently from you or me.

If we believe nobody thinks critically, how can we even begin to effect change?

I encounter a lot of assholes who think that way.

You may have misunderstood something. Dismantling Israel doesn't mean sending the population "home."

It’s fucked up of settler governments to use people as human shields and weapons like that

This kind of argument smells bad to me. This is exactly the justification Israel is using for its genocide in Gaza.

the election results are much closer than you'd think. Popular vote had only a couple % lead. Everyone had to abandon voting for their preferred small party (e.g. greens, BQ, or NDP) to get liberals enough seats to beat the conservatives.

that's true :)

this is just completely fucked up.

Applies to insurance companies too. Yikes.

ITT: A lot of people doing the typical StackOverflow thing of asserting the question is bad and answering a different question instead.

No country's that great but Canada's doing aight.

I do agree about foods with strong aromas, on busses and airplanes -- but to be honest I've never found kimchi to smell especially strongly.

As far as I know, there's fundamentally no particular moral imperative not to buy Tesla -- except for Musk. They should chuck him.

I don't get the kimchi one nor explained the plot. If I don't understand a movie, I like it if someone can explain the plot to me. Is kimchi supposed to smell bad or something?

I also don't understand how the copper thing fits into the rest of them

Isn't the fun of the game that it's massively multiplayer? IDK, never played.

What is that?

Is this donkey-kong..?

He already didn't let Carney hear the end of it - "Carney, who was not elected..."

On the notion of "one person at a time driving," I played Outer Wilds with my partner. 10/10. Just make sure that when there is text, both people can read it before you move on.

50% of the population of Gaza is minors, never forget this. Any mass killing of Gazans is a mass killing of children.

protest?
