This is just adorable
  • We're planning our 30th anniversary party. We still flirt and are both best friends and lovers and don't pass each other in a room without a caress or joke. I'm not bragging so much as to say it happens. Sometimes people keep the remnants of their initial crush and combine it with respect and lust for a whole lifetime. The Pheromones are very strong.

  • What are some activities which are free or inexpensive that I can do to entertain myself / keep good mental health while searching for a better paid job?
  • Websearch "your city" plus refugee services. There will be government and NGO listings; try the NGO people first, just a phone call and tell whoever answers "I am a tutor who teaches XYZ and I am new to town. Looking to volunteer my time and tutor skills. Who do I contact?"

    They'll set you up. In Canada, you might need a criminal record check first.

  • Trump Demands Biden Remove Ad of Him Insulting Dead Troops
  • lol putting that up on the shelf with 'verbal incontinence', I like it.

    I do set a line between 'cantankerous' and 'troll' more leniently along the annoyance scale than others. I say let the dork be a dork, not everyone has social skills.

  • Google Chrome’s plan to limit ad blocking extensions kicks off next week
  • Yeah, but that's just it, there is no one thing that fulfils all your needs if you are forced to use a particular tool, but it lacks privacy or freedom or other features.

    I use chrome because I have to and also am curious and I need to know about how Google runs its shit. I run Firefox because of various features it has that are good for web development. I run Safari because it is fast and relatively private outside of the Apple ecosystem And has some great developer tools.

    The effort of one keyboard twitch to move from one browser to the other is not really any amount of friction for me. It's easier than switching from one tab to another inside the same browser, so I don't get your fixation on a single tool.

    And as a PS, I won't touch Brave with a 10 foot pole anymore because of their Fuckery with crypto.

  • Google Chrome’s plan to limit ad blocking extensions kicks off next week
  • I, too, am forced to use Chrome for parts of my work.

    I just run Chrome for that set of tasks. Then quit, or tab to Firefox for regular browsing.

    This is SOP when dealing with uglies like google, microsoft, amazon, adobe, or meta: do the toxic thing or software they require, as sandboxed as reasonable, then get back to daily life and more knowable risks.

  • NYU Nurse Is Fired After Calling the Gaza War a ‘Genocide’ in Speech
  • Well some people called it the Iraq War but it was the same war started by his daddy so we just called it Gulf War 2.0. It still lingers, mission was not accomplished.

    I don't have any of the footage sadly. The documentary never got made. I don't think anyone has used the footage, probably sitting in a university archive somewhere.

    However there were regular marches of notable size in both Windsor and Detroit, which were loosely coordinated with the millions marching elsewhere around the world. People showed a fair bit of opposition.

    I think some of that energy segued into the Occupy movement too.

  • Moose kills Alaska man attempting to take photos of her newborn calves
  • I was once watching a grizzly and cub way up near the treeline, from a well hidden spot. Then we saw the wolverine and the bear smelled it around the same time and took off with her cub at a swift trot.

    We agreed and hid more until we were sure the wolverine wouldn't see us, then trotted away ourselves. Two of the world's most badass predator species just scrambling to get away from the little murder rug. Won't forget that.

  • Riots rule
  • You're both right.

    Often, descriptors like simply, only, just, etc. are used to diminish or manage perceptions of dissent.

    However, saying 'no it's just a riot' in this case is merely accurate grammar, as it's applying needed nuance and limits to the definition of civil disobedience.
