Telling them how I really feel:

Problem: before the strike hit we needed 11,000 teachers, 1500 new classrooms, and 3000 aids.

The UCP suck at everything.

I hear that. Gone are my days of youthful immortality. Lolz.

I chortle in theologian.

My wife is training to be a death doula so I have been learning from the sidelines. It's been fascinating.

It's woke in the relationship with death. North Americans are highly divorced from death. We tend to live in a bubble.

And I fully agree, industrial farming is horrifyingly divested from ecosystems.

I just happen to be lucky enough to chase cows in a deep ecosystem for food production.

@kim-hu.com OMG Tasky as a furry!

Release all the names. Let the dirty laundry air out and we can deal with the mess rather than play pretend for another 50 decades.

Just a point of order: verification of signatures is a task for Elections Alberta. Not Demitrios "I FA'd now I am FOing" Nikolaides.

He is breaking ethics by asking UCP volunteers to step in and "verify" signatures.

Oooh, I have a good one as a response:

Veganism is a product of wealth and wholesale disconnect from both the ecosystems that surround us and death. It anthropomorphises and fetishises particular animals, while ignoring others. It should be treated with therapy as an eating disorder.

If ignorance is bliss, then inaction is how you remain blissful.

If change is painful, then remaining the same is potentially a happier state than taking action to change.

If non-action is an action (the act of not acting) then one is always acting so the statement is nonsensical.

Your hope for accuracy is delightfully optimistic.

We won't even do layovers in the US.

IDK about the US, but there is a difference legally in Canada. A huge difference.

Doesn't the US have consent laws, consent ranges, and different classifications of sex crimes based on age, age range, and power dynamics?

Here raping a 5 year old carries higher punishment than raping a 15 yr old.

12 days. Didn't take long for my point to get proven.

Just popping back in.

How's that "lesser evil" thing going now that the "lesser evil" did the evil thing?

Abortion restrictions. Pain management restrictions. Food safety out the window. No medical support. No SNAP.

Amazing stuff from the Dems. What were you saying about keeping neighbors safe?
November 13, 2025 at 9:32 PM
The Democrats who voted for this need to get lynched along with the Republicans who demanded it.

All of them are bad people, and should feel bad. I hope they have the day they deserve, every day, until the end of time.

Asking the market to produce a market based solution to a market problem leads to recursive problems. We have been doing this since about 1780, and the results have been amazing abundance but an accelerating doom spiral that adds a new front every decade.
