Age verification is the label used for data collection. Forcing users to submit ID, means they, and the government can know who is saying they don’t like the things the government is doing. And where you were logged in when you said it.

Considering the row of tech ceos who payed millions to be in the front row of Trumps inauguration, that terrifies me.

Smaller local convenience stores in Canada, often had a CC charge added probably 20 or more years ago.

No, he literally didn’t just say that. He went on to say: “ The information I have confirms that she has experienced incredible trauma in her life, which is not her fault,”

Which was included in the short bit I copied earlier, and you just glossed over. Stop looking only at the parts that confirm the lies that you have been told.

Sort by all, block communities you don’t like. It’s your algorithm, not theirs.

Yes, because your clickbait version of the summary made it sound like it was about race and not looking specifically at this person’s history and trauma and accounting for that in the sentencing.

When a broken society victimizes individuals, and they grow up broken and perpetuate that, punishing them harder doesn’t fix anything.

“We know that as a Métis-Cree woman that Ms. Dodding has a greater chance of being physically, violently, emotionally and spiritually victimized. The information I have confirms that she has experienced incredible trauma in her life, which is not her fault,” Judge Alexander Wolf wrote in a recent decision out of Port Alberni.

“It concludes that Ms. Dodding’s personal Indigenous sentencing factors, as well as all the other sentencing considerations in general, support (a) four-year sentence. However, I believe the sentence does not adequately address concerns particular to her circumstances as an Indigenous, or in this case, Métis-Cree, woman. In my view, after having considered all the circumstances of this case, I conclude that a three-year sentence of jail is appropriate.”

I think it has more to do with people not talking about him trying to nationalize the elections. Using ICE to intimidate voters in democratic centers, Usng the SAVE act disproportionately disenfranchise groups more likely to be democrats: women, people of colour, low income, or young voters. These are key issues which need pushback on this year.

People need homes.

You buy a pressure washer, and rent it out, thats a good business. Theres no shortage of pressure washers. I can live without one. I can biy my own relatively easy. Choosing to rent or own is a question of how often I expect to want to pressure wash something.

You can only rent a home that you buy. Which means you had to take it off the market. You can also only rent a home (or room) that you aren’t living in. Which means you need somewhere else to live. You’re taking more than you need, to charge someone else who also needs it, to cover your cost of owning it, maintaining it, and presumably profiting from the difference.

When this is done at scale, you have owners skewing the market to make it harder and harder to buy.

They make more money, buy more properties and make it worse. While renters, and young adults get trapped i to renting because they have no options.

That is what makes it so much different.

Which of my statements are false?

Good landlords will only be as good as they need to be, to continue renting. In a housing shortage, that means they will keep getting worse over time, doing little and hearing little from their tenants who have only ever dealt with predatory landlords.

They will almost always charge as much as they can, not doing anything to help the renters.

The exceptions to this will be invisible on the market, because renters will do everything in their power to never move out or change their situation.

Long time renters are trapped, because they are paying nearly as much as a mortgage, and getting no equity from it, unable to save a down payment to get out of it.

Renting to seasonal, temp workers or students is about the only exception where renting is a necessary service, but currently its way over priced, so its not a great value. So still predatory.

I for one believe that everyone is an addict, or anyone can become addicted to whatever. There is no pathology or dna, that’s just the way the human brain works.

Not every brain works the same way. Not every brain responds to chemicals the same way. You can’t just ‘believe’ those realities away.

Alcohol for example. Everybody in the western world drink, it’s even part of our culture and education in some countries. Some might become alcoholic after 2 years of drinking, some after 69 years. This difference is just life.

There are so many factors involved. But washing them all away as ‘just life’ to justify your beliefs is lazy.

Turns out he’s not war criminal-ly enough for the club
