1. Find out why CRA puts trememdous effort into making tax demands of severely disabled people who are well below the poverty line.
2. Stop federal funds to any provincial Disability Support Programme that gatekeeps the application forms so the disabled person must beg the staff to let them apply
Canada needs Impoundment Laws for that stuff - your MP has to push the legislation proactively, the feds can't do much reactively and retroactively (which was what Doof banked on :(
CAA is running a contest for Canada's Worst Road too lol
I like big hats and I cannot lie!
The general public viewing area at Kennedy Space Center at the moment of the Orion ETF-1 launch. It's general admission so you have to check in at zero-dark-stupid-hours to the a shuttle from the parking to KSC, queue for a wristband in 85% humidity in the dark and chill wind (bring a windbreaker or light jacket that can deal with serious dew and occasiona rain), head over to the viewing area to sfake tour claim (bring a chair, or at least a coccyx relief cushion from the blacher seats), chat with your fellow peasants for a few hours, and then hope the weather holds so you don't have to do all that again lol. Everyone starts to stand up as the countdown near T-minus-30 seconds, so the disabled have to hold your phone over your head and hope the photo's good. In the foreground, silhouetted by the rocket's glare, there are some palm trees and a small oak tree and a lot of men in baseball caps with very serious camera lenses. Across the flat water of the Cochrane Cove, there is a giant ball of white light from blastoff and a white tail where the rocket has already passed because it's a lot faster than you think from a couple nautical miles away. If you really really need to see a launch to die happy, save up for a daytime launch ticket or schmooze your eay into the VIP seating. Otherwise, just sleep in so you'll have the energy for an amazing day at the KSC complex of museums! Watch online, then time your arrival for the NASA Meet & Greet when museums open. The Atlantis exhibit made this Marine combat veteran cry plentiful tears of joy in public and I still want a second viewing! If you have base access, Patrick AFB has a dock near the chowhall with a beach full of horseshoe crabs and the space-a is worthwhile - civilians should stay in Port Canaveral to avoid disappointment with traffic while enjoying the seafood and the Wizard of Oz Museum.
On a happier note, I found my photo of the original Orion rocket test launch (Or1on / ETF-1)!
Kennedy Space Center is a great museum (see alt text).
Alas my photo with Astronaut Jerry Linenger did not survive the car crash that killed my phone & laptop a few years later. But he's a true treasure 🫶
When you want to justify your resource war as a "crusade" then you ask a medieval history major... not the failed Army major with a silly tattoo and a shitty ideology.

Wants to? The right to healthcare in the form of abortion in gone - they have already taken away the right to bodily autonomy for women.
What's truly shocking is that US women and their allies have not followed Madamoiselle de Corday's useful advice.

Dude you lost the argument back at "YoU wErEnT bOrN yEt" just take your ad-hominem shovel and wuit digging.
The CAPCOM ("the voice of the mission") is Dr Jenni Gibbons, not only the first Canadian CAPCOM but also an astronaut qualified for Orion & ISS missions. She invents dynamic combustion improvements while the rest of us get stuck on the cryptic crosswords lol.

Dude in plaid at the back just respecting his colleagues' accomplishments, and their space while they have their moment. That's an ally.
I can't wait for that kind of "take my wife - please!" Boomer Humour to die out.
A very wise person once said, "Please remember you're a human being, not a human doing."
I hope the financial situation eases and that you can find joy in your hobby tomorrow - wishing yoy every success!
The US has not had a workable plan for the aftermath of any war they've entered - they just got lucky that one time with Marshall, and then failed to follow his (research & logistics team's) excellent example ever since.
Indeed. And I have to question why this account chooses to platform tweets from that Nazi space at all, let alone the tweets of that individual.
I hope you can put a label to it soon! Even if it's not a nice label, it'll make a world of difference in accessing care.
If your labels happen to wind up post-traumatic stress, brain injury, or nasal apnea (mine's from a combat injury) then do drop me a DM here, I'm happy to share experiences!
Not only does it interrupt the horizontal line between the levels whilst interrupting the verticality of the windows, it ruins the original symmetry of the door and window sharing a basic shape. It's truly jarring and awful - I'd bet it's Victorian Wannabe Gothic.
Alas, I live in the New World in a rented apartment, wherein fireplaces rarely exist.
This week mice arrived via the gross neighbours' shared wall, so I have got my medieval history fix too, in a 1348 peasant's way.
The only castle here was built in 1909, please send EU researcher visa forms 😭
It's cats all the way down.
"Consecrative inscription" is an entire subspeciality of medieval Latin and medieval theology
(I study chronicles & ships of the 12th.c. crusades so I'm rather far off that field!)
Anecdotally such angels often popped up after repairs or fires, that may/not help the vicar's history nerd help you.
Possibly "TC dečs" (my phone doesn't do the mark over the c but yoy get the idea)
In context, TC was usually "ad templum consecratum"
dečs was usually decimus, rarely decembris
Either the 10th angel blessed for us in the church, or that part of the church was blessed into use in December?
May one ask, in the spirit of being properly envious, about your travels?
Good morning, space fans! Canada's moon astronaut Col Hansen & the rest of the Artemis mission can be seen on NASA's livestream here now: m.youtube.com/watch?v=6Rwf...
(Livestreams max out ~12 hours so you may need to click the NASA logo beneath, then click the red-circled logo for the new stream)
m.youtube.com/watch?v=m3kR...
the NASA Youtube link, since that page's links can be wonky on mobile!
Here's the official and free livestream to watch Canada's first lunar astronaut and the Artemis II mission (thanks Obama)

"I'm cozy" is certainly the start of the message but it depends on the wearer and the context: When it's an officer in a pilot briefing then it says "and I'm about to have a better day than you gravity-slaves"; but when it's enlisted aircrew outside the SJA office then it says "and I fucked up" lol
There's been a lot of speculation since the 1990s when I first encountered this stunner during a course on medieval secular art - horses, selkies, serpents (sea or regular), dragons, etc. And my personal favourite, "Whatever the artist thought they were drawing, it's a lovely derpy thingy."
What was the medal Miss Davison wore on the left side of her outfit, please?
Robert, it's a form of misogyny to refer to women by their given name - including women in history.
During her life, Miss Davison was her preferred form of address to be used by people whom she did not know.
Take a moment to look things up and be respectful.
