  • a distant memory meaning idiots don't feel like they're a threat anymore

    This is, in general, why I think current events are the way they are. Disease, Fascism, Populism, (lack of) separation of church/state, eroded Unions/labour rights, ... it only took a few generations living without the personal pain caused by allowing these things to exist, for certain nations and people to forget.

  • Can someone make a filter that auto-converts x.com links to xcancel.com? No need to give the fascist grand vizier extra clicks. (Scary map BTW - BC, AB, SK each split into north and south states?)

  • Dunno about docker setup, but I mirror github repos I worry may disappear automatically using my self-hosted gogs instance. (Gitea/Forgejo likely also can do it). It's point-and-click, you just specify the github URL and check a box "this is a mirror".

  • Badge of honour, coming from these fascists.

  • As someone who grew up in Alberta, Hell No. As someone now residing in BC, HELL THE F*CK NO. So BC will be cut off from the rest of Canada?

    The commenters on that blog are all wannabe-traitors, and should move south if they don't find their current conditions to their liking. Good riddance, try not to get shot down there while going bankrupt for a scratched knee at the hospital.

  • ... but not rethinking it due to the insanely illegal and unethical crime against humanity that it is. OK.

    So they'll just make their concentration camps reside within U.S. borders.

  • This ^^^ so much

    Do not trust Russia, and do not trust the US under current administration, or while the GOP still exists. We in the rest of the world are ON OUR OWN and must band together against this push of fascism across the world. This is not a drill, this is not a joke. Fascism is again on the rise, as it was in the 1930s. We all know where that led, so don't let it do so again!

  • Ah! Thanks for the clarification. I should've done a side-search to check before posting.

    Hmm, wikipedia says... "... Instead of generating food using the energy from sunlight, it is parasitic, and more specifically a mycoheterotroph" though.

  • Spinnaker's is a nice restaurant/pub in Vic. Courtenay/Comox area has lots of beautiful nature hikes, well honestly anywhere up &down the coast!

  • It is a plant, just of a sort that has turned to parasitism I suppose for its nutrients. I believe they are part of a larger family of plants named saprophytes.

  • And ketchup chips and hawaiian pizza! OK OK I know I'm pushing my luck here :)

  • Same for ladybird beetles (ladybugs)! They love undisturbed autumn leaves and are natural pest control, so you should give them any opportunity possible to over-winter their eggs in your yard :)

  • Hey don't forget to look for the maple leaf on those products too! :)

    Or, you know... just slide us Canucks right into the EU, if you please. ASAP.

  • We CaN't AfForD to LoSe aCcEsS whimper

  • Moldova, Belarus, Poland, ...

  • Guh. They spin harder than a goddamned pulsar. Zelenskyy had incredible restraint to sit through this meeting, what a total waste of his valuable time.

    The EU and the world needs to lift one big middle-finger to this administration and support Ukraine in any way possible. The US needs to be shut out in the cold, NOW. Kick them out of NATO. Put Ukraine in their place. EU, throw out the bloody procedural bullshit and just DO IT NOW. Start building tanks and planes and drones and ammo NOW, because the world will need it to stop Russia without the US's help. After Ukraine, it'll be Moldova, then all the other small neighbouring nations, then ...

  • I like magpies. I know they're noisy little a-holes, but so are crows -- but they're both smart and fun to observe. Wish we had some on Vancouver Island here, I've always thought it strange they don't occur here even though Alberta has both.

  • A good start, let's get it over 1 million and make Polliviere take a position on record if he supports retaining a guy who calls Canada "not a real country" yet holds citizenship here... what a farce.
