What really sucks is that one of the founders of Tekserve has died at only 72. Tekserve was THE PLACE to get your Mac fixed forever.

I sincerely love yall, in theory. But I want us to embrace probabilities. Just a little bit.
My highschool chemistry teacher had a GED (at 15), she also had a PhD. Not sure indexing on the GED is that great.

It’s not just that prison meals are bland and unappetizing — though they often are.
In lawsuits and news reports, kitchen workers at prisons in Arizona, Oregon, and elsewhere reported seeing boxes of food that were served to prisoners marked: “not for human consumption.”

Prison Food Is a Growing Billion-Dollar Industry. Many Meals Are Inedible.
As private food providers' contracts grow, the meager and moldy portions behind bars have forced some people to eat toothpaste and toilet paper.

Seems like it would be fairly straightforward (to me, a rank amateur, and not to say either easy or simple) to set an income threshold below which renouncing is trivial and above which you are required to show you aren't stealing from USA poor folks.
In a past life I reported about this a lot. There is a French-based group called the Association of Accidental Americans, which sued the US, saying that the cost to renounce US citizenship (which, back in 2023, was over $2300) was unconstitutional. They're still fighting that today.
currently reading about the concept of "accidental americans", ie people deemed a citizen by US law despite their seemingly-nonexistent connection to the country, in the context of international taxation and it's genuinely absurd how we have a citizenship-based tax system that is SO also punitive.

someone just asked me to repost this as I just dropped off my old & insufficient Mazda 3 at the shop for repairs. If someone in NE has a dog-friendly, winter-ready car they aren’t using that I could use including for rapid response (& potentially live in) that would be incredibly helpful.

Yesterday I was up on that pipeline route and a First Nation land guardian was explaining to me the riskiness of shipping oil on those waterways and I kept thinking: how f-ing broke is Canada that it’s thinking of doing this? This is ‘selling your kidney’ level of desperation.
Lets face it, this is a good day for oil companies, businesses, and those in the oil sector. Its a bad day for the environment and for reconciliation with Indigenous nations whose lands this thing will go over. As Blanchet stated, this is the official end of Canada's climate commitments.
