If heaven is really what they say it is, then absolutely you can suck a bag of dicks. I bet JC himself would join you.

I’ve seen a few anti-immigrant comments pop up around here that have been upvoted and they’ve made me pretty sad.

This thread makes my immigrant ass happy though so thank y’all.

TIL. Goddamn it Alberta.

I know plenty of poor people or people that grew up lower class (including myself and my partner) who didn’t eat fast food every day.

There’s also plenty of rich people (like the orange moron) who very willingly eat fast food regularly.

Any of those people might have alcohol or substance use disorders, which are human conditions, and in no way mean a person is disgusting or undesirable.

And I’d argue that statistically, people who are more careful about their dietary intake, are also probably less likely to have alcohol dependence, but that’s purely an empirical observation, I’ve never checked the data on that.

I’m not a bastard, but I’m a bandaid. My sister and I like to debate which is worse (:

That’s right, it’s an issue in Catholicism too. That’s why my sister wasn’t conceived before marriage, she was just born a few months early 😉😉

At my work there is like a 70-year-old security guard who spends his 12-hour days learning new languages. I don’t know how his other languages are, but when he speaks Spanish to me, he does so extremely well. The only issue is that sometimes he gets mixed up and speaks Mandarin instead of Spanish to me but we’re not gonna fault him for that one.

To be fair, the man is a retired physiology professor so he’s been learning his whole life and is probably a pretty smart dude, but I’m sure if you apply yourself and enjoy learning, you wouldn’t have an issue at least getting the basics of another language.

I’m sorry I actually don’t like the hedgehogs and always regift them. I do love their crisps & chocolate bars though and their ice cream is pretty dope.

The point he was trying to make is that people that eat McDonald’s every day are unhealthy, and sure, the alcoholism on top of it made everything worse, but do we really think that MCD’s is the only bad choice those people are making?

Like someone willing to eat a shitload of fast food (not for a movie) also is likely to have alcohol or substance use disorders, or eat unhealthy amounts of sugar, or not exercise.

I think a fair point was made regardless of the shenanigans.

I know you’re right, and yet it still feels like we lost.

In our current world? Money.

Support politicians and businesses that do not align with this. Boycott businesses that do.

Donate/volunteer with anti racism/pro-lgbtqia+ groups. Go to protests. Write your local politicians. Make sure those in power know you do not stand with that bullshit.

It might not feel like a “big” thing (if that’s what you mean by meaningful) but if we were all willing to do it, it would make a difference.

I mean it looks fake as hell and the hashtag is #satire, so if I saw it on my algo I’d assume it’s fake and maybe go to the link for the lols.

I’m sorry that there are actual morons that believed this.

Chances are the people who came up with this idea already used AI to come up with the stupid fucking idea.

This would be great if they did it. However, Canada is still providing weapons or vital weapons parts that are being funneled to Israel through US trade. We are still providing weapons to Israel and just taking their word for it that they aren’t being used for murder. Words mean nothing if we continue to provide the means for genocide.

Homophobia does exist but the shaman who did my cousin’s (lesbian) ceremony, banned their dog from the ceremony, so this tweet is no longer so unlikely to me.

Can’t even get on the bus or easily apply for government programs/loans, or review your medical anything online without an app now in my province. There’s workarounds but they are not accessible.

BC strawberries are my absolute favourite fruit in the world. I literally count down the days to the farmers markets so that I can go buy local strawberries every weekend in the early summer. I never purchase strawberries otherwise.

At the markets I also find potatoes, green onions, lots of varieties of kale, cauliflower, cherries, blueberries, raspberries, squash, cucumbers, bell peppers, zucchinis, asparagus, carrots, and a lot of other leafy stuff that I don’t know the names of.

The BC government has a website that tells people what’s grown locally and in season which lists some I’ve missed: https://buybc.gov.bc.ca/eat-local/whats-in-season/ (it also has some recipes that feature BC-produced ingredients.

I speak Spanish and it even took me a minute. It says “Huelga para la dignidad” which, as someone else mentioned, means strike for dignity

I was thinking if it’s just a ballot that has a number but it’s not attached to your name. I.e. if the person handing out the ballots gives you a random one and you’re the only one who knows your own number. I’ve never used electric voting machines but maybe a randomly generated number that you can know but nobody else would know?
