Better hope I'm not on the jury.

Well, that’s just.... like... your opinion, man.

Good, but I won't sleep easily until the crypto MAGAist Pierre Poilievre is on the ash heap of history.

I think we've solved it several times but ignorance stops the implementation. France reprocesses, but other countries are scared to ship to be reprocessed. The US built Yucca Mountain then we failed to commission it.

 

I'm not much of a media consumer, and when I am I find Youtube channels better exemplify the simple living lifestyle (plenty out of Japan). However, every once in a while I stumble upon characters or plots in mainstream media that resonate with my simple living values. Years ago, I truly enjoyed the film Under the Tuscan Sun (though the book was vastly different and superior). More recently, I have been enthralled with the television series Somebody Somewhere.

What series or films do you enjoy that best encapsulate your simple living ideals?

I disagree completely. This text is oddly biased and in parts, completely false. It also dates from 2021.

Nuclear power is the single safest power source ever devised and does not suffer from intermittency. The fearmongering from anti-nuclear, anti-science campaigners in the 1970s was nothing but a gift to coal and advanced climate change by five years.

Climate change is an existential threat. Nuclear power is one of the answers.

Of course Canada needs to leave. Do Canadian politicians think the US will supply it with parts as it invades?

Buy some Gripen and/or Eurofighters and join GCAP.

I thought French's leases part of the former Heinz plant in Leamington, ON and uses tomatoes from the local greenhouses.

CBC made a mini-documentary about it:

I wouldn't assume any processed food is devoid of American ingredients that doesn't explicitly state this.

 

Not the fancy quick kind, but the slow, rolled oats kind which is lower on the glycemic index.

As I was eating it plain, I noticed that it was cooler than usual while the humidity wasn't bad.

Seizing this rare opportunity in the South, I opened my doors and windows, threw caution to the wind, and kept cooking. One nice lentil stew and some baked salmon later (which I will enjoy for lunch and dinner), I closed up the house knowing that I saved maybe $0.10 in air conditioning.

Not all heroes wear capes gentlemen.

The answer is they were a wealthy European concept brought to the colonies as a status symbol. They are still associated with wealthier people which raises property values, so are enshrined in local ordinances and HOA rules.
