    Jesse Brown from Canadaland had long lamented Canada’s inability to define itself except in contrast to Americans. He’s right that we ought to have more positive identity markers but I think it has inadvertently resulted in a very robust independence sentiment. Ie because so much of our identity is defined as differences relative to America the idea of being American is offensive to the core of our identity.

    My buddy warned me about the mint the pervious owners planted, and I pulled it right away. It was right by our basement entrance so I frequently peer in and inspect for mint shoots. I think there must be a buried barrier or something (like landscaping cloth) preventing it from spreading outside the bed it was in. I found a small sprig 4 years after pulling everything I could find.

    Isn’t it a lot more like a capitalist treadmill? Work hard to make number go up! It is in fact beatable in the sense that the number can’t actually go up forever, eventually the system crashes.

    They look awesome. I want the steel one and I don’t want to wait until December (at the earliest). Will having the less expensive one potentially in July scratch the itch enough? Maybe I should order both? Decisions decisions…






  • Terrorism is politically/religiously motivated violence.

    …By non-uniformed personnel, against non-state actors, for the purpose of using visceral public fear to achieve political goals.

    Uniformed vs state is war

    Non-uniformed vs state is insurrection

    Uniformed vs non-state is war crime (unless against insurrection/ terrorism I suppose, in which case its just war/ counter terrorism).
