You can't remove the right to strike. That's dictatorship-level behaviour. Fuck the NSW govt. Solidarity from Canada.

This seems like a reasonable thing to do. People still buy cigarettes despite the ban on open advertising. People seeking vices will seek them out. But we don't need to encourage it in every possible media avenue.

What's the official punishment for treason again? Used to be summary execution way back when, but I believe we eliminated the death penalty in 1976.

Edit: Just looked it up. 25 years. Ehh, better than nothing if it could stick.

Til he's 90...

Ku Klux Kanucks double down. More at 11.

My god, can we stop talking about fascists as if they were actual people with souls?

Same

There is no 'middle' class. There is only ownership and labour.

Of course relatively few comrades from the imperial core are actually sacrificed; it is the plebs from the outer regions who have to give their lives to bring Mother Russia glory again...

War is stupid

Dodgers took game 7 in extras.

Still, an AL championship (and beating the Yankees) are accomplishments to be proud of.

I feel seen.

Recently also banned from Reddit. The messages inbox didn't even have the decency to tell me what my ban-worthy comment was.

(I probably broke the "remember the human" rule. But what always astounds me is that whenever I insult people online, it's due to whomever it is breaking that same rule, and for some reason Reddit being fine with it).

I'm not going back.

Good news. I hope Canada gets there, but I doubt we will. We are too focused on oil expansion and infrastructure to pay any mind to the 'dirty poors' right now.

If we had kept Petro Canada as a crown corporation past the 1980s, we could be funding UBI NOW, but of course, conservatives fucked that up.

Lady was already blind by voting that way. No sympathy. Enjoy hell.

***all the seats. All they want is the power to do exactly what Trump is doing in the States; destroying democracy.

At this point, I think a better term for both the US and Canada would be 'post-industrialized', rather than 'highly developed'. Honestly, we are both sliding backwards in terms of human development.

My positive vision of masculinity is using your power to protect the vulnerable, rather than punching down at them. As others have said, that is what Aragorn did.

Subs are cheaper

What. The. Fuck?
