My hottest, most scorching airport take is:
arrive as early as you want, no one can task you when you’re there. Responsibility doesn’t exist.
Oh, there’s an ask from work? WiFi is down. You’re boarding. You’re disembarking.
Airport is suspended animation. There are no rules, you survive / enjoy.
Hey, I will not tolerate Newfoundland trash-talk on my feed!
Sure, Newfoundland
This is the most amusing manifestation of horseshoe theory that I have ever seen. Of course I am the reasonable centrist who wants to keep changing the clocks twice a year
Now I want to see a poll that asks Canadians one of two questions, selected at random: "do you support a move to permanent Daylight Saving Time, as supported by BC NDP premier David Eby?" Or "do you support a move to permanent Daylight Saving Time, as supported by AB UCP premier Danielle Smith?"
planners: our two universities will be at the end of a peninsula and at the top of a mountain
people: won't people complain about how removed they are from the city?
planners: almost immediately
people: will rapid transit be created in response?
planners: we'll talk about it for decades, but no
Does it, though? Does the anger "have" to be expressed? Did any Nigerians firebomb Anglican churches because Benin? Did the Peruvians ever send terrorists to Spain due to anger at the native Genocide? How many Aboriginies shot up supermarkets? How about Canada, any First Nations suicide bombers?
There were homeless people living in the woods at the time, and the province was aware of this and opted not to remove them. My non-lawyer, layperson opinion is that a ban on woods-walking could be reasonable in extreme circumstances, but would VERY hard to defend if woods-LIVING were permitted.

This disparity is bonkers.

I am following Hungarian politics like it's a political thriller. I have never seen a democratically-elected leader enact You Can Just Do Things on this level, and it's absolutely riveting.

Fiancee! I've been out of the loop. Congrats!
Oh interesting. What resources are you using to learn Yiddish? I learned Hebrew as a child and recently started getting back into it on Duolingo. I've finished the Duolingo course and was enjoying reading Hebrew tweets before X started autotranslating everything.
Say more about "Hebrew isn't phonetic in the same way"? I have a working knowledge of Hebrew and know very little Yiddish, and I always found Hebrew to be very phonetic (assuming you use vowels, which I guess is an unwarranted assumption - is that the issue?)
It's 40% of Canadians' groceries Michael, what could it cost? Ten dollars?
You are going to cut groceries prices by 40% by spending $7.50 per Canadian? How does anyone take this seriously?
I sent a firm but polite email to the strata council, saying exactly this - it's a pain in the ass for me to be hauling groceries and laundry up and down stairs, but that it's a genuine hardship for elderly people, disabled people, and parents of young children to be doing same. Waiting for a reply.
Quite. Just after Oct 7, NAOMI KLEIN was savaged as a Zionist for saying yes Israel is an apartheid settler state, but the Hamas attack was A Bit Much. I'm remembering an Israeli who said he criticized Israel all the time, but only in Hebrew. Filters out the purity police with no skin in the game.
As I said on X, why stop at 30-40%? Why not promise an 80% decrease in price? It's just as realistic.
If this would only cost this much, then yes absolutely do it yesterday. But I cannot figure out the economics of this at all.
I take the stairs as long as I'm not carrying anything heavy. That was 132 stairs twice in a day to a classroom. My unit is closer to the ground than that, but I'm tired of hauling laundry and especially my bike.
I mean, it kind of does, but only as long as the Jew in question also endorses every antizionist talking point.
My colleague @suzannerent.bsky.social has written about this!

Thanks for this reply. So the province is involved here too? What a mess.
