  1. I work outside in the heat and I can’t stand wearing long sleeves (usually I just don’t wear a shirt). Of course hot for me is like 85-90F. I’m probably calling it a day if the temperature gets over 95F. It rarely gets over 95F here though.
  2. Well, to be fair 'we never had walls here' is a pretty uncontroversial statement. I mean, there was mostly free movement of people all over the world really until less than 100 years ago.
  3. Im guessing that most politicians aren’t really afraid of a job loss or hospital bill ruining them financially.
  4. Give it a couple years and one of the major manufacturers will buy the pieces of Tesla after bankruptcy.
  5. If it only affects those that make more than $10 million a year, it’ll be doing basically nothing to curb income inequality.
  6. I don’t care if you live in NYC or Silicon Valley, a $500k income gives you resources that the average person could only dream of and is therefore reasonable to call it rich. Like, even the most swanky Manhattan condominiums still have janitors that are definitely not making even $100k, but I’m supppsed to believe that $500k is just doing ok because it’s just so expensive to live in some places? Get real.
  7. You’ve said this before and I’m not really sure which elections you’re talking about. Ranked choice isn’t exactly new in Canada — it’s been used for years for party leadership votes and the results are not how you’re describing them. As one example, the CPC use a ranked ballot, and in their last leadership race Andrew Scheer won even though in the first round he only had 21% of the votes compared to Maxime Bernier with 28%.
  8. Uh nunchucks are illegal in many jurisdictions around the world. I’m baffled at the reaction to this thread.
  9. I can’t really blame anyone for deciding they want out of this hellhole.
  10. Basically, sexual harassment/assault is done by people that do not respect people’s boundaries / feel entitled to do what they want to other people (or even get off on pushing past someone’s boundaries). The suggestion that NDT’s attractiveness would have any bearing on this comes off very incel-ish because no matter how attractive you think NDT is, it’s plainly true that most women aren’t going to enjoy him awkwardly lifting at their shoulder straps or whatever else he is accused of doing.
  11. Why would you be happy GOSH! Vancouver 2010 was AWESOME, this would’ve been even better. ALSO Calgary (all of Alberta really) could use a make work project — this would be much better than a fucking pipeline. edit: @mclumber1‘s idea is the worst idea in the history of ideas.
