Rural Canadian. Formerly urban Canadian. Stuck in a pothole at the intersection of writing, photography, birds, bees, computer programming, and data science.
After years of using it, I finally started to send them some a few years back. I certainly spend more money on less useful things all the time.

Especially now that a near trillionaire is basically scraping it and running the content through a far-right filter.

Added you. Have fun!

All the self-awareness of a dog licking its own asshole.

Not everyone likes it, but it's worth a try, I suppose. Just take care not to ingest any of the seeds.

Nice! The rose hips are not poisonous, but they do taste awful and may cause some...uhm, complications. Some folks like to make tea with them. Full of vitamin C.

Streetlights? They most definitely have a photostat on the top that turns them on and off according to seasonal light levels. Even particularly nasty midday storms might trigger them.

He's implied absolutely nothing about 'complexity'. He's stated they have more DNA than humans, which is a demonstrable fact. So what are you even talking about?

You missed a fact. It was Ontario Premier Doug Ford that ran the ad, not PM Mark Carney.

Literally go fuck yourselves, fascist enablers.

The context I've seen this used in photography is to denote manufacturing batches of a lens of the same model. The manufacturers produce the product in batches, and a subsequent run can introduce or fix a flaw that wasn't/was in an earlier batch.

So 'my copy' of a lens denotes which run it's from.

Yep. Not sure about further south, but up here the ponderosas have a very narrow elevation range, I think ~200-450M above sea level, and they do not tolerate deep snow pack. So because BC is so mountainous, our mature stands are very fragmented geographically, and only exist in the driest valleys.

I've never seen one. Essentially extirpated from BC. I think the last confirmed sighting was 20+ years ago 😐

In addition to your point, posting images of nothing but text is lazy and outright hostile to disabled people. Even if we concede that he's done this because of the character limit, failing to include the text content as alt-text makes the entire post inaccessible to those who use screen readers.

The majority of humans on this planet live lives composed of only the smallest fraction of their potential because they've been hobbled by capitalist oligarchs with unending thirst for blood and money.

I'm getting fucking RADICALIZED y'all...

How long will we actually toterate this bullshit?

Oh, I'd have thought UVic had one.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

We humans had our time in the sun, and we blew it. Time to go extinct.

Best of luck!

I have 11 months, and I'm certain I'll fail. I think I'm fine with that. I checked off a couple of big ones...
