This was my grandma. She married a Quebecois man who was ESL and raised his french kids from a previous marriage all while refusing to ever utter a single syllable in their language. You could ask her anything in french and she would clearly understand and respond in english. She spent sixty years living with and loving french speakers but she never slipped, not even a bonjour. She also refused to ever say why. We waited until my grandfather passed to bury her ashes because we were certain if we left her alone at the family plot in rural Quebec she would find a way to make us regret it.

Baby Steps has made me laugh a lot this past month. But my last laugh in gaming was on saturday when I started the new Katamari game and the very first thing I made was given the title Miso Flavour Uranus.

It sure is. I can’t resist collecting the really stupid ones. Here’s a better look

He was never worried about shit. His comments about dead internet theory are an attack on Musk and shitter, nothing more.

I was hoping for some news on this after I noticed them filming season 4 at my work this week. Shame they’re ending it at 5 with a half season. Its the only live action trek I’ve thoroughly enjoyed since the Rick Berman days.

Ahh ok. There is actually a Durham City in the USA that often gets confused with Durham Region on the internet. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Durham,_North_Carolina

Is this real? It has been twenty years since I moved away from Durham region but this dumpster fire of an ad does not surprise me at all.

Actually this is Durham region. A county near Toronto.

The article is about honey taken from grocery stores in Sweden not being honey. Did I somehow miss Sweden leaving Europe?

There are companies that pick up that stuff from all around and deliver it to your door. No need for driving or crowded food libraries. I can recommend mamaearth.ca if you’re in the Toronto area. It has been over a year since I’ve set foot in a grocery store and I don’t see that changing unless I forget something important for a meal that can’t wait til tomorrow.

My wife came home from getting hers still in tears from the pain. I offered to go with, but the doctor made her believe it was nothing. Not content in simply hurting my wife, they set the string so it cut my fucking frenulum the next time we had sex! Took us nine months to find and book a competent gyno to fix her razor vag.

The worst part is my wife got the IUD because it was recommended by the gyno after she had a tubal ligation. It was not there to prevent pregnancy. They claimed it would make her period easier, the opposite was true. All that trauma and pain for nothing.

Only the rich are cowbirds. Cowbirds are parasites that make other birds raise their young for them, kinda like Musk.

You are correct. The other reply is wrong. This is the movie you’re referring to. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muppets_from_Space

If you think thats weird you haven’t even scratched the surface on Zuck. He actually idolizes Emperor Augustus Caesar so much that he copied the guys haircut for most of his career. Behind the Bastards does a good job of highlighting it. If you want a quick readable version, here’s the first non paywalled article I could find. https://www.businessinsider.com/mark-zuckerberg-fascinated-by-augustus-future-of-facebook-2018-9

I hope some of those US citizens includes the people Trump sent to Ukraine to chat with Zelensky’s opposition.

Republicans have spent my entire life defending the second amendment under the guise that it is the only way to stop a tyrannical government. Not sure why, but I feel like this is should be relevant to Americans these days.

What about Canada? We barely ship any drugs or contraband south and yet 90% of the guns used in violent crime here come from the USA. Most of them come from states that aren’t even near the border. More Canadians have been killed by American arms than Americans could ever be killed by Canadian drugs. The problem is the USA wants to act like some paragon of justice while also encouraging instability in their neighbours and refusing to admit their addiction to guns is a cancer to all of civilized society.

Really? Everyone I talk to is still stuck on this https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/freeland-disney-plus-1.6815024 appologizing doesn’t change the fact that she’s so out of touch she thinks cancelling a streaming service will save your finances. Not someone I would trust during trying economic times.

How about I trade you two dozen eggs for those bills? Eggs are only worth a few dollars a dozen north of the border. We’d share more, but your leader is threatening our future.
