You got nothing but down votes cause you know I’m right. Denial is a hell of a drug.

I down voted and didn't bother replying because your comment was too plainly stupid to merit followup, you absolute tool. Not only are there plenty of great songs from the 80s that aren't about sex and drugs, but you also just proved my point by picking a specific sub genre and acting like it represents all of music.

Then don't release a press release and a plan? Your comment doesn't make sense in context.

Sure, I'm all for increasing funding to the CBC. Just complaining about how neoliberals do everything. If the minister wants to increase funding to the CBC, say it in the press release. If she doesn't, say it. This cagey say-nothing fluff is bullshit and people should find it offensive.

I hadn't read it as "theirs", I assume they heard it somewhere and are repeating it just as I plan to do.

I don't think they're panicking, this is how they always behave. Trump is saying a moronic thing again to draw attention from the actual important authoritarian shift onto "what stupid meaningless shit did he say". It's the same fucking playbook every time.

Best analogy I've seen so far, thanks so much.

I kinda root for them in the war of independence

god I hate how neoliberals write stuff like this. The entire press release says nothing functional, except "the cbc is important" and then some easily fluffed assertions about what their plan 'would do'. It's really clearly written to avoid anything too committal.

IMO it's a mixed blessing and curse. A lot of them are uninteresting, but the top comments are usually good for a quick laugh.

the tags are just them trying to sell product, nothing more and nothing less. I treat them like I do highlighted sale flags: sometimes I will take a look and see if it's worth noting, but when the product has dropped from 13.99 to 13.89 I'm not exactly gonna dance a jig just because they printed a yellow flag saying "on sale". Same thing: just because they plastered a maple leaf on it doesn't mean it goes straight in the basket.

If I catch my store labelling american stuff as canadian though, I'll probably be doing some creative sticker removals at least.

Very little

I think that depends quite a bit on what you listen to.

This raises kids with cool music tastes. My 14yo might be a bigger fan of 2000s indie rock than I am, and I was, y'know, both a fan of and the target demographic of that music when it was being made.

It's not that I do my best work 8 hours before the deadline, it's that I do my only work 8 hours before the deadline...

that feeling when your meds kick in for the first time and you realize all these other fucking assholes have been living like this their whole lives and never told you.

Yes, although it should be noted that one of the trickier parts of ADHD is most people have at least some traits of it, especially when they're younger. It's why our memes are so relatable.

Still get checked if you're thinking it.

Yup. You're always "one of the good ones" to them, so they don't show you their true colours.

Hmm could someone remind me who bleeds if you cut a liberal?

afaik yes, and that's exactly the problem I'm referring to.

gestures to the past 20+ years of me and many like me saying we need to refine this shit locally --- sigh.

the trouble is that if it's a siege, it goes both ways, and I don't think in our current state we're in a position to win it. That may change as we settle in, Canadians are a stubborn and hardy people.

I can't even figure out who this comic is for. The way trump is drawn, it looks pro-maga, but I think it's supposed to appeal to the, ironically, useless idiots on the left who oppose ukraine because something something proxy war.
