  • Which is why I put the phrase "almost every other nation" in there.

    Almost is not all.

  • That American exceptionalism is only describing the fact that America continues to have slaves when almost every other nation has banned it completely.

  • Last time I tried ordering food I spent an hour trying to find a restaurant that still had delivery drivers on staff.

    Fucking capitalism is killing everything.

  • Saw the same show in Canada sitting in row 6. Waters was freakin' incredible!

  • The minute they try to cross the Canadian border and make us the 51st state.

  • Adding to this that my Canadian bank just updated their app and it doesn't work with my older phone. So my only option is to use online services with SMS/call verification.

    It's such a joy to know that my bank, who made $40.670 billion last year, takes care of every customer equally.

  • I don't have much contact with the family I have left, but I did get into things with my 85 yr old landlord the other day. Can't remember what started it but I did say that us white people are pretty arrogant. She came back with a statement saying that she just wants everyone to stop talking about race altogether 'cause discussing it just causes problems.

    She's got an adopted First Nations daughter and 3 FNs grandchildren but doesn't seem to be able to see the bias in how they are treated (ie: followed around in stores by staff, etc) or her/our complicity in the systemic racism that continues.

    I ended up just walking away and now thinking maybe I should move ... because I lack the patience to deal with that shit.

  • Thanks. :)

  • ahahahahahaha!!

    That's freaking hilarious. Muskie is an idjit.

  • Multiple times, a few because of partying (it was the 80's ... what can I say) and three due to work (system crashes).

    The work ones were 2@24 hrs and 1@36 hrs -- partying I can't remember how long. Definitely wouldn't be able to do that now.

  • The first line of the summary starts with ...

    Trump’s popular vote share has fallen

  • The only one available (for mobile) is a _TEMP version whose permission list goes on forever.

  • Breathe in to a count of 4, hold to a count of 7, then exhale to a count of 8. Do it until you fall asleep.

    ** The added benefit of this method is you're also cleaning out the stagnant air from the bottom of your rib cage/lungs (from smoking, pollution, etc).

  • Some of us have a habit of listening to that nasty little voice in our heads that says we're a failure, that we're weak, that we have to work harder than anyone else to just be.

    Next time you hear it starting to list all the 'bad/wrong' stuff you've done, tell it to shut up ... and keep telling it to shut up every time you realize you're listening to it. Then think on a good thing you did for a friend or neighbour.

    Self-flagellation should never be our bestie.
