How can they rif off MIB when we are not allowed to remember it?

Yeah, otherwise they think themselves human and want a seat at the table.

It's like democracy is the least bad system...

A well crafted political system is one that stays uncorrupted the longest (or can recover less violently from corruption).

C'est sur la radio wknd à Québec, qui se proclame être une radio musicale et positive (bref PAS une poubelle). C'est juste le genre de discours qui sort quand le viel animateur du matin se laisse aller à essayer de donner son opinion...

Entendu à la radio aujourd'hui : "Les Québécois sont moins stressés par l'argent que le reste du Canada. Étrange, parce qu'on s'en fait enlever plus par l'impôt. On est la place dans le monde où on s'en fait le plus enlever! On devrait réduire les taxes et impôts "

Esti que je suis tanné que toutes les discussions sur l'argent finissent par des demandes de baisser les taxes! Clairement on s'en tire bien ici... Je serais pas surpris si c'était en partie à cause que plusieurs dépenses sont gérées de manière centralisées plutôt que par "les forces du marché".

"La Mégabit à Bidule"

Bon c'est pas tout à fait correct grammaticalement...

Countries are defined by land-hoarding class, because the nomadic people define themselves by their group instead of the land on which they live.

Without hoarders (landlords), we wouldn't need to put as much effort towards regulating land use, instead we could focus on regulating behaviours. Ex: "this land is a national park, you are not allowed to trash it. Go next door, there you are allowed to pour the trash from your industrial process into the ground, because it's your private land"

Time to call Kevin Bacon

Well... This is jazz... I'm skeptic as well, but what if it was some sort of experimental modern jazz where the musicians would try to predict the next click?

Ouais ouais... Mais tsé le but d'une discussion ça s'arrête ps juste à donner son opinion lis sacrer son camp... Ça c'est plus comme un jackass qui fait ses niaiseries.

Si tu veux que quelqu'un écoute ton opinion, le contrat social implicite est que toi aussi tu écoutes son opinion. Pis "écouter", c'est pas juste faire semblant d'écouter... Ou bien ça peur être ça aussi, mais attends toi à la même chose!

Ouais, fais juste attention à ce que tu dis à ce sujet la prochaine fois que t'es au resto libanais du coin, ça se peut qu'ils crachent dans ton assiette derrière ton dos 😏

Now you will not be able to unsee green tint in old LOTR memes

Yes!

This one said to me "You can't get away while I'm under the gas pedal." It was a (confirmed) stray barn cat. The most lovely and patient cat i ever knew.

Being older than 30, I can understand that a being older than 1000 would get confused about their age (especially if the time unit changed since they started counting!)

Time to inject noise in this database and put H signs everywhere at random

How much can I make with a 10 yo account with average karma? Where can i sell it?

"We're not tasked with providing clean affordable drinking water. We can't be there. We're in business."

"We're not tasked with preventing food poisoning or affordable healthy food. We can't be there. We're in business."

What other examples can we make where "business" is an excuse for acting in a sociopathic way?

Notice that they never state she was an alcoholic. They also never atate she was a "high level" alcohol user. Just that she was an alcohol user.

You can make your own assumptions about her alcohol use, but in general these rules would also excluse a "normal" alcohol user with a congenital liver failure...

In Canada, drinking more than 3 drinks per week is medically considered "high alcohol use" for a woman... (6 for a man). This limit keeps getting lower year after year

If this can prevent you from getting organ transplants, then it encourages lying to your medical doctor about your current habits... That lady was not considered alcoholic, she just used alcohol in greater amount than the limit considered acceptable by doctors.

Latest stats show that almost 4 out of 5 people has exceeds that limit at some point in their life. This woman died only because she was honest with her doctor about her alcohol use. (Note that the article says her partner was a compatible donor but the system refused to accept him because she used alcohol. It's not about lacking donors.)

We should remove tariffs for European cars as well. Why can't I buy a small 4wd in Canada, when they have them all over?
