All the young uni kids who went full anti Biden on one issue, are likely too young to remember what president Trump was really like. They're gonna love him, since being miserable and outraged seems to be their preferred default.
I'm a laborer. When the economy is bad, my cost of living goes up and the price of food goes up.
When the economy is great, my cost of living goes up and the price of food goes up.
The only people affected by a positive economy seem to be the people wealthy enough to have stock portfolios and large shares in corporations. It doesn't affect me as a laborer in any positive way ever.
You lost me at "save". Save what? Pocket lint? Nobody has the funds for savings anymore. I used to put aside a few hundred bucks a month 10 years ago. Now I can't even afford my entire month's expenses, let alone save any money.
The last season of discovery is the only one I have left and I'm finishing it begrudgingly. I really don't like that show. Huge fan of strange new worlds, but discovery felt like a cw version of a Disney star wars show.
I was part of my city's biggest indoor crowd "WrestleMania 18" and was part of my city's largest outdoor crowd "Toronto rocks SARS benefit". There's really nothing like being front row while AC/DC belts out Thunderstruck, with over 600,000+ jumping and singing along.
The crowd at Skydome when the Rock and Hulk Hogan wrestled was insane too, the whole building shook
I have a buddy in his late 30s who just became a grandpa. He had his kid in high school when he was like 17. His son is now like 19 and just had a kid of his own. That shit is crazy

I think you just invented an issue to complain about. Literally have never heard of this aside from the regular "I don't get young people clothing" argument
How old are you btw? I mean that, we've been trying and demanding that for decades. But it got us nowhere. That's why I'm past asking for stuff, I just had hoped the younger generation wouldn't go through the same loop and just realize that the system doesn't work. I had hoped the younger would just jump to revolution. I can't lead it but I know how to build stuff! Pires, BBQs that can cook a billionaire sized pig, these contraptions that they used to use in France, forget the name.
The International Criminal Court prosecutor said Monday that he has requested arrest warrants for the leaders of Hamas and for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel....
I've been saying that the best solution is to take down both leaderships and put young people, who actually want to co exist in charge. I've been downvoted and banned from News for expressing this view and suggesting Hamas are not good guys.
Your prejudice is showing. It's actually YOUR country that goes around the world assassinating people in their own lands. But you guys like to throw the ball at someone else and pretend you're righteous. It's more likely to be you guys.
Fuck the entire state of Texas. I don't wanna hear "but there are good ones". When I grab a loaf of bread that's moldy, I don't dig through it to find the one piece that's ok. I just toss the whole thing.
Do they not realize that universal health care has been done successfully and at a lower cost than privatized healthcare, in many other countries? Seems like a weak argument when there's so much proof against it
We all pay for it when a child with potential gets sick and dies because their parents couldn't afford health care.
We all pay in one way or another when health care bankrupts a family.
We are all going to pay for it anyways, and if someone in a worse financial position than you needs health care and your taxes can provide that, you're garbage if you feel you're being forced or you're mad cause a poor person got medicine with your taxes.
I'm not being impoverished by universal health care, I'm being impoverished by corporation and those "free market" fucks who are anti union, anti workers, and pro fascism.

Morons. I'm a union worker and it's crazy how many of my union brothers are conservative voters. They vote for politicians who are openly anti union, anti workers.

Lol here's my moving guys carrying all my furniture on bicycles.
Oh shoot my kids are done school, and I gotta take them to the dentist right after. Let me strap them and a baby seat to my back while I climb on this bicycle.
Oh here comes the bicycle delivering my new 60" tv!
Sucks I'm disabled and have no way to ride a bicycle, guess I'll fucking die
How do you pick up your disabled kid from school and take em to the doctor 50km away on a bicycle? In the dream world that also has perfect and free transit?
And the u.n does absolutely nothing about any of this. Just takes our money and gives it to Russian representatives who veto everything. This was the very thing the u.n was created to prevent
Dunno if it's just me but I'm Canadian and Walmart in the last 10 years particularly, has become a k-Mart level operation where it's just stores full of the same crap for years, and don't even bother trying to order online, that shit is a nightmare, and when you have a problem with your order, they don't even reply to your emails let alone fix any issues. I don't buy anything from Walmart anymore, they don't have exclusive deals I can't get elsewhere, and everyone price matches now.
Edit: to everyone downvoting me. Most of the Chinese themed events in Toronto are round about funded by the CCP who commits acts of genocide against its Muslim populations daily. But you guys aren't really pro Muslim/Arab human rights, just anti Israel.
Here you go moron. Most of the Chinese themed events such as the season festival. Taste of Asia, etc. in Toronto are round about funded by the CCP who commits acts of genocide against its Muslim populations daily. But you guys aren't really pro Muslim/Arab human rights, just anti Israel.
It's honestly the exact same thing, almost the exact same word and it means the exact same thing. It isn't gonna help anything. These labels just help the keyboard activists feel like they did something
I see absolutely no difference whatsoever between the two terms. Even stigma wise. Being homeless isn't a good thing, stop trying to make it sound nice unless you want people to think it's nice and ignore it
When growing up my parents taught me to stand up to bullies. (We're talking about verbal abuse and manipulation, not physical bullying.) Following that advice as a kid led to mixed results yet it's stuck with me into my adult years....
