Ah, reminds me of high school physics and always trying to remember whether I needed to multiply or divide by 3.6.

That's downtown, indoors with all windows closed.

I recently bought a home, and even though I get screwed in a sense if prices plummet, I completely agree they should. Homes should be primarily to live in, not an investment mechanism. There's nothing wrong with owning an appreciating asset, be it a home or anything else, but it's not the government's place to guarantee that (other than bonds they issue, obviously).

The Prime Minister represents the people of Nepean in Parliament, whether they voted for him or not, and he heads the Canadian Government on behalf of the citizens of Canada. A more correct title to your post would be "I disagree with the Prime Minister". It's absolutely right that this cabinet is trying to have their cake and eat it on housing: increasing supply and magically preventing prices for existing units from depreciating. That being said, and even though it's besides the point: the Cons would done worse.

I won't watch because I'm utterly uninterested in this, but if I wanted to, I'd find a way to pirate the stream 🏴‍☠️

I actually prefer penut butter in savoury foods, so not at all offended by this sandwich (properly seasoned).

It's amazing how different the YouTube experience can get depending on your preference. When I'm logged in, I never see anything remotely similar to this garbage, I guess YouTube knows me and that when I am served low quality content I downvote and block. But when I open the front page from a different browser, it's just a cesspool.

This was a great interview. The problem though is that I'm not sure how these really good ideas from his book can be brought closer to reality.

I watched it, was mid. I was hoping for something more adult oriented.

I don't like when they do it. More generally I don't like their chemistry.

My feeling about it is that the Valar didn't participate, I think we would have been told if they had. There were probably quite a few Maiar with Eönwë as you say to deal with the balrogs and Morgoth himself, but to my understanding he was already significantly weakened at this stage because of the marring of Arda (even Fingolfin did quite well in one on one combat, so I think a few strong Maiar could have done the job).

I always sing this when I'm snacking on cheese at night.

 

The picture is from very early in the episode, I'm trying not to spoil it to anybody. The new Star Trek show "Strange New Worlds" just released an episode that mostly takes place in present-day (more-or-less) Toronto, with familiar city sites in almost every scene. It's a pretty good episode for Kurtzman-era Trek, although it's hard to concentrate on the plot as Torontonians.
