I wish I could have continued the boycott but I spent like 30% more on groceries when I was avoiding Loblaws properties and it was not sustainable. What's the solution when every store is gouging?

This website has ads, despite my ublock extension, and threw a full-page interruption at me asking for my email address twice while I tried to scroll. I gave up before I even got to the content. That's some user-hostile bullshit.

Forty years... forty... years... I wonder if there was something *new *that our liberal democracy started forty years ago, where the focus shifted towards expanding economic growth at all costs.

New and different but still liberal. Neo maybe.

National flags are jingoist nonsense. Patriotism is a social disease.

Tell me where I said I'd teach a child suicide should be front of mind. All I mean is they should get to choose if they live - in response to someone pleading that we all stop having children.

I want to have a child. Why should I not, because the world could be in rough shape due to climate catastrophe? I'll let them make that call and I hope they don't have to.

OP was begging everyone to stop having kids because they gave up on life - that's better than recognizing we can choose to stop living at any time?

Accepting the end of the human race is a lot more "what the fuck" than accepting the end of a human life, imo.

Which mentality?

That human life is worth living, but circumstances may not always be, so we reserve the right to choose our own exit from it, or that choosing to live is saying life is better than death?

In arguing that doctors shouldn't pay tax on more of their capital gains when they retire because they often have no access to a pension, they're ignoring that pension income is fucking taxed.

What a load of bullshit.

Such a strange thing to celebrate. This kind of service should really be run by the municipality. Like, my city has a dozen eco-stations for dropping off some chemicals, electronic waste and furniture or other household stuff that can be broken down for scrap. E-waste is always free.

Won't somebody please think of the petite bourgeousie.

Everything I know about liquid containers I learned from the TSA. Any liquid could be a secret explosive, so Israel had to blow it up to be sure it was really water. Destroying the water was an unfortunate and necessary measure to ensure the safety of all Gazans.
