And Parks Services members are out there protesting this time around too. What chads.

Schrodinger’s Brat is a great username.

I love Crypt of the Necrodancer, I had no idea there was a sequel. I’m so excited!!

28 day old account that’s posting hourly. I won’t even bother taking the bait.

Other people have already explained why you’re wrong in both the threads. If you don’t get it, you don’t get it. Might I suggest reading some marine science methodology instead of arguing with Canadians about the economic crisis they’re facing. Unless you’re getting paid well for it, I suppose.

Aren’t you the guy who started a flame war in the lemmy.ca instance for not understanding US/Canadian trade relations?

Yeah, I’d bet you probably don’t understand how more independent sightings of whales along their known migratory paths would point to higher numbers in their population. You don’t really understand numbers or history.

Love that you assume I’m a non-voter, when nowhere in my comment implies that. You didn’t even read it, or my replies to the OP (who actually made good points btw, unlike you). But sure, whatever helps you feel better right now.

I understand your point, but as you said:

But just staying at home, doing nothing and then saying “I told you so” is just dumb.

There are people WHO VOTED who are doing this, because it’s “not their responsibility” anymore.

Yeah, well, they’ve done it, 95 million Americans didn’t vote. Now what?

Are we gonna point the finger at them, lay the blame at their feet, and feel superior because WE VOTED, while the oligarchs and fascists loot our treasury and put our minority and LGBTQ+ brothers and sisters you seem to care so much about in camps? Or are we gonna go and fight the good fight like the people out in LA yesterday?

I wasn’t well received when I spoke English (sadly with a North American accent) and I wasn’t received any better when I switched to French with a French accent 🙂

This is such a Quebec experience, lol.

Montreal is a lot more Anglo-friendly these days, but there is still friction with the rest of the local communities from the surrounding cities/towns because a lot of the newer people moving to Montreal don’t really try to learn French. When I spoke French there (with an Ontario accent) they were surprisingly appreciative of it.

Quebec City I had the same experience as you though. The Belgium comparison is apt.

Thank you for sharing your experience! As a US/CAD dual citizen, I’ve always been more pulled to my Canadian side, and I love hearing other people speak about their experiences here.

I’m sorry, I thought you were Canadian! Truly, no disrespect intended, apologies if it came across that way. Not many people know about the referendum (either of them) outside of the country, but the France being obsessed with their former colony makes sense lol.

I was just mostly curious as to what the Franco vs Anglo Canadian landscape was before I was born, I have always known the somewhat bilingual landscape we live in now.

No disrespect meant but,

1. How old are you? I was born in Canada right around the 2nd Quebec referendum and I have always heard the politicians at both the Federal and Provincial levels speak in English and French whenever I tune into the news.

2. It’s Trudeau*, we’ve already had one in the 80s…

Loved the short manga (same author as Chainsaw Man, Tatsuki Fujimoto), loved the short film.

10 day old account with the worst political takes in every Canadian post I see you in. Either you’re an agitator, or you somehow passed high school in Canada without a basic understanding of how the government works. Either way, not worth listening to.

Bootlicking the US isn’t gonna help Canada long term, especially since arguably that’s what’s led to this mess in the first place.

My GOAT

🥲

I just read it on their website and it looks pretty standard. What’s so shite about it?

My GOAT Moon Jae In could never. Only Korean president to never be: overthrown in a military coup, assassinated, thrown in prison, executed, investigated for corruption, or commit suicide.

[…] to compare someone who isn’t “fighting for a more just and equal society” to a “Nazi” just makes you look like a know-nothing ignoramus.

(emphasis mine)

What an interesting way to describe the technocratic class that is aligning themselves with Trump. Are you up for a promotion at a FAANG, maybe? For recently rolling back some DEI policies perhaps?

Get something called a “fabric comb”. It’s what my grandparents and great grandparents used to depill all their clothes, including delicate wool and cashmere, and that’s what I stand by. Cheap, come in different sizes, tooth ranges, and no need to change batteries. Hard to enshittify that.

Find an YouTube video to show you how to comb different grains/types of cloth with it. I was taught by my grandma, but it’s pretty easy once you know what you’re doing.
