You know the smell dirt makes when its wet? It’s called petrichor and humans can smell it better than sharks smell blood in the water. It is detectable by the human nose at 0.4 parts per BILLION. This gave early humans a huge advantage in finding water when needed. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Petrichor

I was hoping for some news on this after I noticed them filming season 4 at my work this week. Shame they’re ending it at 5 with a half season. Its the only live action trek I’ve thoroughly enjoyed since the Rick Berman days.

Ahh ok. There is actually a Durham City in the USA that often gets confused with Durham Region on the internet. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Durham,_North_Carolina

Is this real? It has been twenty years since I moved away from Durham region but this dumpster fire of an ad does not surprise me at all.

Actually this is Durham region. A county near Toronto.

Its no wonder if you’ve socialized with the people living where he won. Or considered the poor campaign his opponents waged. Ford’s campaign was shit too, but his supporters think a campaign consists solely of advertisements and vibes so they never noticed.

I called a Ford majority as soon as the platforms were released. Seemed obvious to me the NDP and Libs were giving that to him. Hell it was the only time I didn’t vote NDP provincially in over twenty years of voting.

Sometimes calling it a tramp stamp is more fitting. Here’s an example my wife and I had done last summer

Every mention of separation I’ve seen from Albertans involves them using Canada’s currency, military, and pension plan. The people behind the movement are far too dumb to actually figure out their own country. It’ll either end up being an instant US territory, or they’ll collapse in a year or two.

I spent the last twenty years strictly voting NDP and I agree. This is the first time I won’t be voting NDP federally, just two months after my first time not voting NDP provincially. They really need to up their game. I’m just grateful my riding is split between NDP and Liberal so I don’t have to worry about a blue win either way.

If you think thats weird you haven’t even scratched the surface on Zuck. He actually idolizes Emperor Augustus Caesar so much that he copied the guys haircut for most of his career. Behind the Bastards does a good job of highlighting it. If you want a quick readable version, here’s the first non paywalled article I could find. https://www.businessinsider.com/mark-zuckerberg-fascinated-by-augustus-future-of-facebook-2018-9

Yeah they’re clearly lying to put more focus on their business. They must know about their many small competitors throughout the country. In my area everyone knows Kawartha Dairy is superior to Chapman’s, Kawartha is just more expensive and harder to find cause they’re smaller.

I hope some of those US citizens includes the people Trump sent to Ukraine to chat with Zelensky’s opposition.

Yup. After watching the debate I began predicting another Ford majority and another record-low voter turnout. Glad I was wrong about the latter.

I’ve always voted NDP, but this was the first time in twenty years of voting that I didn’t feel great about it.

His family has a lot of Canadian ties. His mother is Canadian and his grandfather moved to South Africa from Canada because we weren’t apartheid enough.

Republicans have spent my entire life defending the second amendment under the guise that it is the only way to stop a tyrannical government. Not sure why, but I feel like this is should be relevant to Americans these days.

What about Canada? We barely ship any drugs or contraband south and yet 90% of the guns used in violent crime here come from the USA. Most of them come from states that aren’t even near the border. More Canadians have been killed by American arms than Americans could ever be killed by Canadian drugs. The problem is the USA wants to act like some paragon of justice while also encouraging instability in their neighbours and refusing to admit their addiction to guns is a cancer to all of civilized society.

We are very much on Trek. For reference, check out season 3 episodes 11 and 12 of Deep Space Nine. These episodes take place on Earth in 2024, roughly six months ago. It was always clearly laid out in Trek that their path to utopia was paved with war and hardship.

Well that and the fact that our first contact in Trek is with a peaceful but vastly superior race. We had everything to gain by creating an alliance and could have easily been wiped out by Klingons or Romulans if we didn’t.

Really? Everyone I talk to is still stuck on this https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/freeland-disney-plus-1.6815024 appologizing doesn’t change the fact that she’s so out of touch she thinks cancelling a streaming service will save your finances. Not someone I would trust during trying economic times.

Well if you want to go down that road then it is also important to point out that Doug Ford was famous for being a drug dealer before he was famous for being premier. https://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/toronto/globe-investigation-the-ford-familys-history-with-drug-dealing/article12153014/
