It’s also higher in just about every developed country other than the United States.

I do appreciate that he went out of his way to correctly use oxford commas though.

Imagine buying a house but you have not get access to certain rooms.

A bit off topic but that’s kind of how condos work btw. You don’t actually own the apartment or townhouse, you just own shares in a corporation that gives you the right to live in that space, with some severe restrictions.

Often you don’t have the right to mow your own lawn, you can’t keep certain things on your balcony, you can’t have a dog over a certain size, etc. It’s kind of nuts tbh. They give you the illusion of owning the space, but it’s a very restrictive form of ownership.

There have been a number of attempts in Canada to sue credit agencies for libel. None have succeeded so far, largely because the cases have been a bit murky.

This one seems really clear cut though. I really wish this person would try to sue for libel. A successful precedent could end up drastically changing the way credit scores work in Canada. The credit agencies might suddenly find themselves having to be accountable for their sketchy practices. Imagine that!

Pretty sure that’s the moon, not the sun. Looks like a long exposure.

In central america at least they call these suicide showers. They’re really common in low end hostels / cabinas.

She herself seemed to lack this sort of nuance. She refused to play in Israel, for example, effectively accusing and dismissing an entire nation as oppressors.

I suspect she was, deep down, not a particularly reflective person. We all know people like these. Feel a feeling, act on it immediately, and maaaybe consider the implications and consequences later. Maybe. Or just double down, and never dare to truly look at yourself in the mirror.

It’s unfortunate because these types of people also sometimes turn out to be incredible artists. I assume it’s the combination of talent plus the ability (/curse?) to experience raw feelings much more strongly than the rest of us.

Also looks like the Climate Action Incentive (i.e. carbon tax) got paid out this week.

Every fancy light I’ve ever had — and I’ve had many — either stopped working / charging, got stolen, or has been lost.

Took me a long time to realize the actual best lights are cheap and run on replaceable AA batteries.

Or all the shitpost meme communities… at least you can block porn with the NSFW flag.

Same, but I switched to an iPhone. It was an annoying adjustment for a few months but now I’d never go back. Great hardware, but Samsung’s software is an almost comical mess, and they seem to have zero awareness of how bad they are at it.

I’m curious about personal experiences here rather than aggregates, which tend to wash out individual differences.
