Someone should make a statue of his final moment, to be installed as a fountain.
In French, Putin is called “Poutine” because otherwise his name is a swear word. Poutine happens to also be a regional food from Québec comprised of french fries, gravy, and cheese curds. This is very funny.
I have level 2 autism. I will not understand most of your emoji meanings, or subtle tone use. When in doubt, a tone marker goes a long way.

As a French speaker, I chuckled.

It is part of the diagnosis classification in Canada as well. It refers to levels of support needs.


So long as Zelenskyy survives, they can repopulate /s


This is what happened in Canada when the price of gas went over 99.9¢/L.


A fresh installation, as I was going to change distros soon. I got tired of fighting against Ubuntu’s forced things like installing certain apps as Snap packages.


I live in a jurisdiction where energy drinks were recently banned for children under a certain age, and it was all I heard about for a period of time.


I suppose I don’t understand the need because I have never needed the feature. An extremely basic distro has always been very stable for me.


We already lost when code generated by LLMs was allowed into the kernel. All Linux distros are affected by upstream code, now.


I’ve never been able to understand what an “immutable” distro is for or how it would change my life.
I prefer to use the checkout with a person rather than the computerized one, because now the computer wants to ask me fifteen questions before I’m allowed to pay.
Do you have a bag? Would you like a bag? Do you have a rewards card? Would you like to make a donation to our tax deduction foundation? Are you sure you don’t want to pad our bottom line? How would you like to pay? Did you forget to scan your rewards card? Would you like a receipt?
At least the human workers have ceased to care about what management wants and they no longer ask any of these questions. I just walk up, they scan my items, and they activate the card machine by default. Frictionless.
But, soon, screenshots shared by unfortunate individuals with accounts will be the only way to view anything on Twitter.
I feel old because I remember when all of these websites were open to view without accounts. Suddenly I understand why old people speak so often of “the good old days”.


A two-bedroom apartment, a big table for doing hobbies, a physical copy of my favourite books, a sofa.


It strikes me that being forced to use a laundromat is a situation that could be used to teach Marxist principles about how being alienated from owning the means of production leads to surplus value being extracted from the workers by the capitalist.


The Parti Québécois was going to win the election anyway, but I fear this will give them a supermajority.

It is untenable the way that people will code shift when they find out someone is autistic. I have had the experience of seeing a receptionist go from professional-but-annoyed to acting as if she were speaking to a lost toddler after accessing my file and seeing I’m autistic. Most of the time it happens gradually, but that experience made it clear just how much some people will modify the way they interact.


In the end, it’s up to the individual provinces to do so. Several provinces made threats during the last bout of tariffs but backed down. We shall see.


And turn off the electricity.
Yes. I had the misfortune to hear someone explaining this subreddit the other day. There was a “girl dinner” subreddits and it only allowed photos, so someone made this one so they could also post stories. Apparently the majority of the stories are about how terrible their boyfriends are.
