Or "god" is a human construct, invented by us to help us deal with the fact that our brains allow us to understand death along with the knowledge that we too will die one day.

I've been to Hiroshima. Anyone who’s seen Hiroshima, who’s walked the museum, seen the destruction, could ever think nuclear bombs are something humanity should try again. And yet we creep closer to doing so every day.

I've been to concentration camps in Europe and seen the barracks, the gas chambers, and the ovens. The U.S. is creeping closer to a repeat of that history as well.

I wonder how christo-nationalists, who chant "Jews will not replace us" square their support for Trump and Trump's support for Netanyahu. I hope it causes their heads to short circuit.

I know there have been reports of really bizarre voting outcomes in a number of swing districts where, for example, the ballots show votes for democrats all the down the card but a vote for Trump as president. It's pretty clear the machines were rigged in some way but I have no clue how or by whom.

Midterms in 18 months could change everything, IF Trump allows the elections to happen, and that's a big if.

This is a perfect encapsulation of the maple maga mind: 'we don't know yet why we hate Mark Carney because PP hasn't told us yet, but hate is fun so we're going to buy new stickers and flags to replace "F*ck Trudeau".'

Ontario has several pre fab home builders. My concern would be that Mattamy, via its ability to build in bulk, could undercut their prices to such an extent that it puts them out of business. Then, once it's cornered the market, its prices would inevitably rise.

(2/2)...in tourists from around the world. Instead, DB was a run-down shack of a place, with only the annual Daytona 500 to bring in money. Australia, don't become another Daytona Beach. (p.s. for those wondering, the speed limit was 25 mph.)

I once found myself in Daytona Beach, Florida (a family member ended up in the hospital there). I took a walk on the beach one day and was shocked to see tire tracks and speed limit signs up and down the white-sand expanse. It could have been a fantastic natural setting that would've brought...(1/2)

For decades the NRA and other gun nuts told us that their guns were to protect us all from a tyrannical government. So a tyrannical government is here, they are all sitting on their asses, and the people who want gun control have taken to the streets to defy the tyrannical government instead.

I agree. We can no longer afford to act as if we have no enemies. Russia and the U.S. covet our natural resources. Our looong border makes it hard, esp. in the arctic, to stop incursions into our territory. Great as our northern rangers are, we need more people & better tech to protect ourselves.

The current premier of Saskatchewan is a maple maga conservative named Scott Moe. The current premier of Manitoba is a left wing indigenous man named Wab Kinew. I'd choose Manitoba, if I were you.

Great idea! Just so you know, while Canadian Club is a well-known brand of Canadia rye whiskey, it actually has zero rye in it, and you will no longer find the word "rye" on its label or in its ads. Lot 40 is a genuine rye whiskey that doesn't need to be mixed with pop to taste wonderful.

Bad choice of words on my part. How about a play on words? Because I can't believe your scatalogical references are purely coincidental.
