Driving instructors have been specifically not using the term accident (and calling out students who do use it) for decades where I live.

You ever have a car cd player that plays files?

It’s pretty common.

My current car can do that (2019 Toyota) with the factory player.

As could every car I have owned in the previous couple decades.

Thank you.

I chose inanity very specifically.

The issue is most people don’t want correct answers, they want to be told they’re in the right.

Beyond that, they mostly want easy answers.

They all think that they can find a safe seat when the music stops.

The truth is, AI should not stand for Artificial Intelligence

Most of its output that I have seen suggests it should be “artificial inanity”.

popular in Canada.

It’s largely momentum and nostalgia for a time when it was actually decent.

Winning any sort of “best local food” award almost always means the price jumps immediately.

So that means you’ll need a Sportsnet subscription, a TSN subscription and an Amazon subscription to watch all of some team’s games (at least the ones that aren’t regional blacked out)

Maybe the future of warfare is to figure out a better way for people to settle their differences.

That would, of course, mean we would first have to figure out how to prevent narcissistic megalomaniacs from being in positions of power.

Its also not only a Canada thing.

The wingnuttiest of the right wing is increasingly inserting themselves into the political sphere globally, dragging the Overton window to the right as they do it.

I hope there will be a rebound towards the left (as has historically tended to happen) before they are able to do too much damage.

They’re pretty good.

Canada also makes a lot of wine ourselves.

Award winning wine, even.

If you’ve got nobody to vote for, I can’t blame you for not voting

Not letting them off the hook that easily.

They could still vote against an obviously horrible candidate.

we desperately need the whole world to boycott us to save us from the orange chomo-in-chief

The rest of the world will do what we can to protect ourselves from your country’s government, but it’s up to American citizens to do the hard work of fixing their own damn country.
