Agreed. Just because "everyone knows it" is no reason not to follow up with scientific study. It is good to be able to back up assumptions with data, and occassionally they find some very interest data points, or even find that "everyone was wrong".
My mind was blown when I learned that when a politician says "## jobs created" the actual unit is job-years. So that could be one job projected to be needed for 75,000 years or 75,000 jobs with a one year lifespan. Which is why they are constantly needing to make more jobs. Like, one person might need 45 job-years over their life of employment, but a politician would say that is '45 jobs' in their little speeches.
This is an easy solve. Just put an 'Alberta First' or similar sticker on all the books you want to not be banned, since those jags have 'Absolute Freedom of Speech' according to dear leader.
Can we have a new word that combines sarcastic and angry? Maybe our german friends can help us out?
I think they are seeding the idea now so later they can jack the price and use this as an excuse so it will be more easily accepted. Any excuse will do for this lot.
I feel they would rather us slowly starve to death, or aphixiated by smoke, in small manageable packets than be roused all at once to action. All hail netflix and doordash, the bane of revolution!
And don't think I ascribe any higher status to myself. I am only another fool shouting into the wind, paralyzed, and unable to gather the mental resources to act.
Some do act, I think, build revolution, and fight their way out of comfort to face the hard shapes of reality where the battle must be taken, but I cannot imagine such a person. What do they feel? How were they raised to be this way?
It would be nice if the less-than-needed jobs could be cut and the needed jobs split more evenly among everyone able to do so. I'd love a 5 day weekend, or to be able to imagine retirement as a possibility.
I got a metal pipe from a chain link fence I was tearing down and used some scrap lumber for a frame. It isn't perfect, but I'm not that handy or picky.
Places that pre-fab houses/ trailers/ pallets often have a free bin where you can get shorter pieces of lumber. Maybe some equivalent for metal bars or pipes (welding shops? fencing companies? Plumbing or gas fitting? Places where site / building demo is happening).
Where I live it is illegal to take things from the landfill and they are quite well monitored.
I think Canada Post should be doing some kind of hyper-secure electronic messaging service for canadians, and also maybe internet for everyone as a utility, not selling random loose goods. Like, if a sci-fi writter from the 1800s imagined what a post office from the 2800s would be doing.
What a poor broken person. I support helping individuals like this by helping rid them of their unhealthy obsessions, removing them from the psychologically damaging effects of the public spotlight, and giving them tasks and goals in a controlled safe space so that they can achieve happiness without harming themselves or others.
This existed well before Friday. My doctor recommended I pay to get a quicker scan last year. I'm not sure of the exact details since I didn't do it.
I won't say I'm not tight with cash, which factored into the decision, but I also really hate this fall into private health care and don't want to support that. I was told it would be about $400 for a private MRI.
I do love being on hold for an hour only to speak part of a sentence to someone who immediately transfers me to another 1 hour hold queue and/or hang up on me.
And if you write in a complaint they email you a phone number to call with, you guessed it, a 1+ hr hold queue. And nobody has last names, phone numbers, email addresses, or accountability of any kind.
Countries and politicians commit to a lot of things that they later back out of due to various reasons. Agreements without penalties are optional.
In this case, Turnup being an unpredictable self-centered loser in charge of a large and dangerous military is considered a sufficient reason to bend the knee for now. If he fails his coup we will may stop spending. If he succeeds, then I think we will continue spending.
Hey, that's a good idea! We should do nothing. You could do even more nothing by not making such comments! Why don't you get started now.
Oh shit, it's an immortal! What did dinosaurs really look like?

There are probably some undiscovered life filled caves or lava vents that will be fine.

She so wishes she controlled the judiciary. Vote 'no' to judicial reform in the upcoming referendum please.

Sounds like ObjectNow is a proponent of much higher taxes on the wealthy. How else will the public sector pay for all this needed capacity?

Are we supposed to be some sort of gestalt entity composed of all the individuals that work there or the inanimate legal entity?

Yes, good - your new allies aren't good enough for you. Cast them out and go it alone. Alone you will do it. Only you.

If you have any other option I suggest you use it.
