Welp. First confirmed case in Calgary.
Naturally, everyone is freaking the f*ck out and buying up all the toilet paper, and frozen TV dinners... sigh... Well fat load of good those will be if the major infrastructures fail. I doubt they will though. Mmm mushy Salisbury steak, sounds like good...
It's disturbing. I was watching a podcast about this yesterday. The psychologist guest on the show said "it reads like something out of a gender studies class." I agree, it's sickening.
I guess as a member of the "white patriarchy" I'll count myself lucky I live in a society that is keen for me...
I think the best thing anyone can do for themselves right now is to pick up a few cases of bottled water and a week or two of non-perishable food. Do it sooner than later so you won't have to deal with a panicky crowd or empty shelves should it get ugly.
It it turns out to be something along...
@mumstheword Don't be too hard on yourself, for one thing, have you any idea how many grown adults really act like the intangible ideal we call "grown up"?
Very, very few.
I have seen a grown ass man in a nice expensive suit throw a literal foot stomping, screaming, whiney tantrum over a line...
I've never had to take my shirt off for a stethoscope, or pull it up even. I'm male, so it wouldn't even be asking much. As with Lumos I just have to untuck mine and the doc goes under.
Still, it doesn't sound like the doctor did anything wrong, but it is a tad weird.
Maybe they're just being...
@scout86 I do see your point.
I think where I my opinion has shifted from "Never Trump" to "ummm, he ain't that bad" has come from seeing the direction the left has been going in ideology there, and in action here. It's well, in a word, frightening.
I remember his campaign trail, the disgusting...
No kidding. I was listening to a podcast that covered this incident and the caster pointed out something glaringly obvious that I failed to notice.
He pointed out that through the whole speech Trump listed off example after example of good things that have been happening for the American people...
I did learn of that today when looking into this a bit deeper. So I sat down and watched the whole thing, paying close attention to the "handshake snub". I had read elsewhere that she was late offering the handshake, waiting for Trump to have turned around before raising her hand, then playing...
Well...
Pelosi's behaviour at the State of the union was pretty disgusting.
I get wanting to make a statement, but tearing up her copy of the address in front of not just millions of Americans, but the whole world. Holy shit, what a way to act like a spoilt toddler on the world stage, yet they...
What happened to the pelvis of the black person in the boots? It seems somewhat disproportionate to the legs and upper thorax.
Also how tall is Buck?
I've not chosen a side about this, I'm asking because shit looks weird to me in the photo.
I can kind of understand why you had trouble getting the doctors to do what you were insistent on.
If you choose to only listen one thing I say here, let it be that I'm glad you were able to help your wife and can now have a proper family life.
Others have covered this better than I can.
Here...
@Sideways I thought Iran already seized a British tanker a few months ago for "delivering oil to Syria". Seems like they already don't give a shit who they mess about with, they seem perfectly content to just do what they want, when they want.
This latest tantrum is just more of the same.
They...
@Sideways & @Friday
Yeah, that's pretty much what I was thinking, well as far as the reasoning behind all this anyways.
All I know about munitions such as RPG's is don't stand directly behind one. So I'll take Friday's word for it on that.
Am I the only one that finds it a little odd that the Iranians can't hit a stationary target the size of an airbase with multiple missiles, but can hit a small moving target multiple times?
Whatever happened, I guarantee that Trudeau will embarrass/infuriate all us sane Canadian types with some...
The fact that Iran, either deliberately or as result of poor aim, failed to kill any US personnel. Made it easier to enact a non violent rebuke.
I gotta admit, I'm honestly surprised. I was fully expecting to read about a declaration of war while I was getting ready for work tonight. Hopefully...
Anyone else see the pictures taken of the US Embassy in Iraq?
Holy shit! How anyone can look at that and try passing it off as "protest" is living in a larger delusion than the flat earther's.
@scout86 I was being a little dramatic about the open borders thing, what I meant (and should have just said the first time) was decriminalisation of illegal border crossings. Which is certainly a different thing. Sorry, should have been clearer.
Thanks for the public radio suggestion.
@scout86 Yeah?
I'm probably watching different news, other than the asinine policies (open borders, universal health care for non-citizens, ect ect) I haven't seen much actual campaigning.
That's nice to hear, it's so hard to find reputable sources for political news.
@scout86 It's getting really bad. I would love to see the Dem's approach this coming campaign season with the message of "Yeah, Trump has done some good for the US. Here's how we're going to do better." Rather than their current strategy of "Orange man bad! Impeach Orange man!"
