There are about a hundred of these that sometimes hang out in the shrubbery in front of my place. They make a delightful racket. Also adorable when they visit the local restaurant patios hoping for dropped crumbs 🤎

Tons of young male characters are voiced by women. I’m curious which anime you’re referring to though.

For the good of everyone, except the ones who are dead. 🤪

Yes good point… naturally “guzzling resources at planet eating rates” is quite expensive.

I’m so not sold on this AI stuff. It just seems like a fancy new way to create problems.

And comments like this show the damage done by such whitewashed reporting. The most documented genocide in history is happening before our eyes and Canadians “don’t have a dog in this fight.”

Note that ‘authoritarian’ tendencies only need to become visible when the people broadly turn against the ruling class. It’s like Ford’s “any colour you want, as long as it’s black.” Sounds like freedom until you start demanding a red one.

I don’t recall being warned away from facebook, google, etc. when it was revealed that all of the data they collect is accessible by the US government. China is supposed to be an adversary or whatever but the US has a much greater track record of meddling in affairs outside their borders…kinda feels like this is just ideology on display.

My mom has one, and the door handles are so awkward, I really don’t think I’ll ever get used to them. From the inside, it’s easy enough, but it’s also just a button, with no physical unlatching mechanism, and the window has to go down slightly when the door opens, so I would not want to be in there if it lost power.

She does generally like the thing though.

Liberté, égalité, centimètres.

The only way to fix billionaires is revolution.

Tragic mistake my ass.

As of 20 March, at least 196 humanitarians have been killed in the Occupied Palestinian Territories since October 2023, according to figures compiled by the Aid Worker Security Database

The israeli regime needs to be dismantled and everyone involved put on trial.

1. That’s not why you don’t have universal healthcare.

2. Go Houthis! Woooo 🇾🇪🔥😸🎉

It looks like one has punctured the chair, and one is really long or falling off?

Anyone who works nights, or an evening job that runs late like a bar or something, is currently used to having the date change in the middle of their “day”. I don’t think it’s really that big of a deal. It would be super weird at first, but kids who grew up with it would find our current system just as bananas as we would find this.

That’s rad.

Would it be ethical to make them into dog food?

One time the Canada day fireworks were cancelled because it was too windy, so instead I just watched the seagulls. I swear they were playing in the wind, a bunch were going around a loop, catching the wind and getting carried up over a hill, then looping back around and gliding back to the bottom of the hill to go again. It looked like fun.

Unless you’re a pirate 🦜

Shawamreh said Beijing’s early response to the war in Gaza emphasised non-partisan condemnation of “all violence” – a position Israel criticised as unclear and ambiguous –

Alright then let’s be clear FREE PALESTINE 🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸

I kinda think we should go right off and bomb all the reviews, with the hope that it teaches devs to stop doing stuff like this.
