Not disagreeing with you, but to become an electrician in Canada it’s a 4 year apprenticeship. Same with plumbing. The rest in your list though, I don’t know enough about, though sounds kinda right maybe

Haha my Oma did this one year, as the sticker came off almost immediately, and the registry wouldn’t replace it for her

Why does life in and of itself need to have meaning (beyond the obvious “survival”? Why can’t you, with your abilities of thinking and reason, assign your own meaning to it?

This entire trilogy is such a mind fuck, but entirely worth reading, imo

I read this before the movie was a thing, knew nothing about the story going in, and LOVED it!! Did not see it coming!

Just started listening to Lilith by Nikki Marmery, a novel about Adam’s first wife, and how she was demonized. So far I really like it, and the reader has the best accent, I haven’t looked up where she’s from, but she sounds Irish to me.

Just finished rereading the entire Murderbot series in time to read her newest book, Plarform Decay (which was good, I liked it, but I want to hear more about certain aspects of the story).

Huh? The only addiction mentioned here is to nicotine. You’re not actually referring to taking prescription medication as prescribed as an addiction, are you?

The article says he lost it around Christmas in 2014 while working at the factory. So, 11 years

There’s some great podcasts out there that really focus on the science. Science VS comes to mind, as does Factually

It’s not bullshit. When I lived in Edmonton, we had a mountain ash tree in our front yard, as did many others along our street. In the winter, the birds would hop from tree to tree, eating the fermented berries, getting more and more blitzed with each bar tree they visited.

Exactly this

Uh, I hate to be the one to break the news but he’s spoken about not stopping with autism Adderall labor camps

Canada does accept US refugees

Has anyone asked the intern that they put in charge of accounting?

Well, yeah. In other news, water is wet!

In its analysis of pursuits from media sources, Human Rights Watch identified 10 people killed who were reportedly bystanders—not in the pursued vehicle—and 20 bystanders who were injured. The reports also included the deaths of two children—under the age of 18—including a bystander, and four children who were injured in a crash after a vehicle pursuit.

“These pursuits regularly occur in residential areas or in sensitive areas: around schools, places of worship, and hospitals,” El Paso County Commissioner David Stout said in an interview with Human Rights Watch. “DPS is often conducting pursuits at 80-100 miles per hour. They are putting our lives in danger. Comparing these policies to the Department of Justice and police departments shows that DPS is out of line with all of these other organizations and the best practices they implement.”

Sounds to me like the Department of Public Safety sure doesn’t give a flying fuck about public safety

Wish I could upvote this more than once

Glad to finally see some coverage on this!
