Okay so I forgot how big the sun is and had that absentminded mental picture moment of "oh it would make a big bang as something 3/4s the size of the sun would hit it"...

This picture was a very helpful reminder of just how out to lunch that thought was. Don't trust your absent thoughts, folks 😅

This falls in the list of things I didn't know I didn't want to know, but now know, and know I don't want to know. Oh no

This is weirdly sound advice 🤔

This is more or less it. Some drivel about when your birth certificate is created you become "incorporated" into society, which is different from the "flesh and blood human". So they'll differentiate their normal name as we'd know them from some weird parallel name (in this case all caps), and in practice shift their "debts and liabilities" onto the incorporated person and their assets to the "flesh and blood person"...

Leaned hopelessness. Can't escape the effect regardless of your efforts so eventually you stop trying

This is the one! They're ridiculously effective, so much so that my home provinces is sinking like 250 million into building 5 more of them over the next 5 years

Quick access to massive credit card info as well. Micro step to "the everything app"?

Canadian here. Minor correction: he didn't speak, but he was invited as a Ukrainian "hero" by the speaker of the house (a member of the sitting elected party). He was applauded - twice - for his "service". Including by Ukrainian president zelensky.

The only 'defense' I can offer is that our prime minister had no input on the matter, and Hunka's Nazi service came out after the fact. Canada does not support fascism or Nazism...

But it's a bad look, no matter how you cut it...

I thought black and what television was black and white because history happened in black and white. I suppose that means life in colour happened after the invention of colour tv

I'm always stunned by the numbers that ppl sell out for. I always think it's hundreds of thousands or millions, but its often like 60k... It's nuts.

But then, the CCP is very happy to bully their citizens. Until recenlty in Canada, they were having the Chinese police service muscle ppl under the guise of "diplomatic offices" for "drivers license renewals and other domestic Chinese matters."
