Iirc they’re trying to put a tax on money leaving the US too.

From the same crowd who still chants “buttery males”

Y’all have an extra tax on groceries? TF?

In Canada, a whole host of categories including basic groceries are HST (sales tax) exempt. For the curious, there’s a list on this website

It’s not even “sugar” nowadays, it’s corn syrup

Houston is not pronounced “hews-ton”, it’s “hows-ton”

Why is it that the question of finance is ALWAYS one of the first hurdles when discussing things like climate change and social services, but somehow when it’s for the military or Nazi Gestapo, the money magically materializes?

There exists more than enough money to fund it. We just need to extract it from the billionaires who are hoarding it.

Immersion. Duolingo (blegh) is useful for structured grammar learning, but I’m gaining a lot through music, podcasts, and switching some apps to French. Recently started translating comic books since they’re relatively simple but fun. For the specific dialect I want to learn, I’m getting help from my friend and I found a French club through my job.

As much as I hate Duolingo’s recent politics, their podcast is one of the most useful. It’s essentially bilingual Radiolab. At least I know that doesn’t have AI.

It’s what you make of it. Some people don’t make anything with theirs.

Personally, for me it’s to form community and to leave a positive lasting influence on others. Except fascists, they can rot in hell. For others, it might be to learn as much as they can or to impart their wisdom onto their children.

It’s gonna become a death camp the next time a hurricane grazes Florida. American Nazis have weaponized climate change.

I got my tongue split in 2017 so uhh healing that is definitely up there. You basically have the worst sore throat of your life, can’t talk, can’t stop drooling, and can only “eat” smoothies by pouring them directly into your mouth.

• Roughly one in four Trump voters expressed concerns that the tariffs are damaging the US’s ability to negotiate trade agreements with other nations.

If you ever wondered how stupid your average Nazi was, 3/4 don’t think he’s harming trade relations

Fascism is a cancer. If you don’t cut off the necrotic, metastisized flesh, it will infect and kill the whole host.

I’d rather blue states direct their tax dollars into programs to help political refugees escape red states. Red states are welcome to do the same and use their own funds to get the fascists out of here. They can frame it as “Christian refugees”, idgaf as long as it removes the cancer

I decided to start learning French last year and have been essentially speed running it. Learning another language makes my brain happy (I’m fluent in 2 already).

Everything is temporary

They’d probably throw them in alligator Auschwitz

Having lived in both (currently in CA), can very much confirm. Canadian goods tend to be better overall. Corn syrup is pretty rare in food to start, and somehow produce is fresher???

Oh 4 wheelers don’t stop half the time. You have to lock eyes with the driver and assert dominance as a pedestrian so they understand that you will sue them for everything they’re worth if they touch you.

To give you an idea of NYC drivers, I almost got run over once by a guy flooring it in reverse out of a one way side street, turning sharply onto the pedestrian crossing. We flipped each other off then he sped off

This seems right for NYC, in that I see both bikes and cars frequently running through reds and riding where they aren’t supposed to be
