  • Third paragraph, first sentence.

  • Why are Canada and Australia following the US to war?

    Jump

  • I know someone who has participated in Talisman Sabre as a CAF member and ultimately it is a signal to China that they cannot quietly absorb other countries like Taiwan without the rest of the world knowing or acting. It is a not an act of war, it is an act of assertion of rights and boundaries for other countries who we are allied with, along with useful training for our military.

    This is not a statement of right or wrong, just what one member has expressed to me as the purpose,

  • Yeah, at the start of a campaign sure. You hand draw something or find something existing. But at the end of a 20level campaign lasting 3-5 years, $60 doesn’t seem so bad to commemorate years of joy spent with friends. Hell, the pizza alone costs thousands over that same time span.

  • In your opinion, what is the correct way to handle a partner who insists they are fat, even though you know that they're objectively not overweight?

    Jump

  • I allow them to feel fat while still demanding they provide evidence if they actually insist they are overweight.

    I feel fat even when I’m in a healthy weight range; I think that is patriarchal social programming. I don’t think you can control how someone else feels. But when they start really getting down on themselves, I encourage them to either find evidence that they are overweight and then set goals to deal with it. Or, they can’t actually prove it (ie. They are healthy weight/waist) and then we deal with overcoming the social programming.

    Not perfect, but it works for me and my partner. Mostly deals with accepting how we feel and making a plan about it.

  • Mark Carney is Your Nightmare Boss: a look at his personality-revealing pancake-flipping photo op

    Jump

  • I’m a bit shocked at the downvotes. The article brings up some valid criticism of how Carney treats people around him, even in the public eye, and how his actions are really speaking louder than his charming words of promise.

  • 38% support some privatization of Canada Post

    Jump

  • Then perhaps we all agree that quoting stats without the whole context present is misleading.

  • 38% support some privatization of Canada Post

    Jump

  • You could have written 47% opposed privatizing some of Canada Post, the larger percentage of that group. By choosing the smaller opinion group, you make it seem like the support for privatizing some of our public service is actually the more popular opinion, when it is not.

  • Amazing meme, 10/10, no notes.

  • respect dandelions!

    Jump

  • Fair point. I’m speaking from a North American perspective, but others have pointed out they may be a native or long naturalized plant.

    Ultimately, planting species that are from your local area is better for the native bees of of your area as they are adapted to them.

  • respect dandelions!

    Jump

  • Thank you, I’ll look into that and consider the impact of it on my beliefs :)

  • respect dandelions!

    Jump

  • This! Dandelion pollen does not contain all the amino acids necessary to support native bees. However, because they come up first and bees often become attracted to the first things they feed on, they can actually make bees addicted to them. Because they can’t meet their nutritional requirements with them, they die.

    Plant native plants people!

  • More specifically, CPP back tracks on verbiage because new laws passed that don’t permit greenwashing and practices that don’t actually lead to net-zero. They never were going to hit a real net-zero, they just aren’t allowed to lie about it now.

  • Is it bad that I'm not graduating on time?

    Jump

  • I’m graduating at 29 after 6 years! When you are just out of high school, it feels so important to be in line with your peer group. As you get farther from that point, no one carries the same timeline anymore. It’s okay to take more time, and more importantly, it’s okay to fail a class.

    Some of my classmates finished their masters before I even started!

  • Poilievre dodges questions about repealing national handgun ban

    Jump

  • He follows the Aaron Burr model: talk less, smile more. Don’t let them know what you’re against or what your for.

  • We are so cooked

    Jump

  • Personally, I care because I love honey, farm grown food, and they are a poster child for all bees. Without them, there is certainly a lot less care for native bees. While yes they are primarily important for large monocropped farms, that’s your food. Like, so much of your food. Native bee populations aren’t sufficient or interested in pollinating our food crops, so yes we should really care.

  • We are so cooked

    Jump

  • Specifically, honey bees (Apis mellifera). Native bees that aren’t colony dwellers may not be impacted the same by the mites.

  • You mean… the cloaca?

  • Do you interpret a 👍 as a rude reply?

    Jump

  • No, I see it as friendly, but I receive them from my friends. I think if you have a doubt in the relationship already you are more likely to interpret any short reply as rude than if you are confident in what your relationship means to them.

  • What is something you've done that you believe very few other people have done? Only one caveat: it can't be cool or jealousy-provoking.

    Jump

  • Okay but… this is cool. Doesn’t count
