I can’t believe the province would do this
With garbage optimization and day one prices
Hey gang you got your coordinates wrong in the part where you’re explaining how hard coordinates are.
You list “north by south” instead of “north by west”
“We can’t prove this won’t go away on its own so we’re not treating it” isn’t something I’d want to hear from my doctor
Line up now to be safe
Home renovation has the most AI slopsites that I’ve ever seen. Every other search engine result is garbage
* I don’t actually think this is a good idea, but it’s at least more consistent

Hot take, Fillmore should resign.
Not because of some scandal. The platform he ran on is at odds with the reality of the times. Take the L and move on.

Be the radical leftist that the right will accuse you of being anyway
“Glass barely bends before it cracks
Embedded down into our path
Paved in the crimson of our tracks
Without the chance of turning back
Before the water gets too high”
Watching Carney’s speech and chasing it with this is making me feel absolutely insane
Help I read the comments under Fillmore’s “cut the costs” budget video on Facebook
Meanwhile nearly every carmaker is selling your info... this is a problem but definitely not an EV problem, let alone a Chinese EV problem.

I have to believe we’re going to learn something from the current era because the alternative is absolutely losing my mind
