  • Ah, the classic childish gotcha!

    I had more than 150 flights in 2019, more than 20 in the first two months of 2020, then the pandemic hit and I didn't fly for 750 days. When the pandemic restrictions eased my company asked me to go back on the road but I refused. I'm senior enough and valuable enough that I can do that. Now, I chose when I travel and I chose not to travel to the US at all except for SKO which I have to attend.

    I'm don't feel any need to "justify" myself to anyone. I'm trying to help you to understand that other people may have different lived experiences and different responsibilities than you do and that some people's worlds are bigger than yours and don't allow them to live in black and white.

    I hope this helps.

  • Do you think that the US didn't photograph you dozens of times every time you crossed the border? Do you think that the airlines and Canadian government don't share information about you when you travel? Do you think they don't monitor your phone calls? Do you think they don't monitor your social media?

    I've working in nation state level information security for 15 years and boy, do I have news for you.

  • Nexus routinely saves me more than an hour at the airport and TSA Pre does the same in the US. I had more than 150 flights in 2019, a third to the US and half international and Nexus saved me a lot of time and hassle. My world may just be bigger than yours so Nexus has a much bigger impact for me than it would for you.

  • Yes, being gainfully employed by the Canadian subsidiary of US company that requires me to travel to the US once a year does colour my perspective but by all means go on fighting the good fight.

  • If you think they haven't had their fist in your ass for years I have to question the tightness of your asshole. All they're doing now is telling you that they have their fist in your ass to get a rise out of you and you're giving them what they want. MAGA has a hardon for cruelty. I'm suggesting that you look them straight in the eye and say, "Mmmmm, daddy!"

  • I have a Nexus card. They have my complete background, finger prints, iris scans, and facial biometrics. Who fucking cares? It's just a pedofascist flex. Just yawn at them. It will drive them crazy that you're not bothered.

  • Thanks. I fixed it.

  • Yes, sorry it's just a reminder card for me. I dice them up to about 3/8". I like the little cubes of potato in the filling but you don't have to include it if you w don't want to.

  • Oh...the potatoes are diced and par boiled. The recipe is just a prompt for me. That's why it's so short.

  • Happy to share. It's a easy, tasty meal.

  • Here you go. I like more cloves so I double this amount.

  • Bison, chicken, turkey, and pork.

  • I didn't even realize that the recipe was in the photo. I will when I get home, yes.

  • Nice. A strip club that I used to go to in Ottawa was right next to the Dill Pickle. They had great hamburgers.

  • Reality doesn't matter to MAGA simps and bootlickers.

  • We're good, thanks. - Canada

  • Fascists gonna fasc.

  • Every extremist everywhere makes the exact same mistake.

  • The Conservatives under Polievre Have become a do nothing obstructionist mob just like the GOP in the US. They aren't contributing anything positive to Canada or doing anything to benefit her people. They are chanting slogans and staging stunts. All they care about is getting into power and tearing apart the rights and institutions that Canadians fought for years to gain.

    Canada deserves better that dollar store Trump and maple MAGA.
