Awwww, that sounds almost magical to have watched, really glad for all of you.

I live to apologize to her.

Glad it made you smile! Also glad I'm not the only one who gets reprimanded for laying out an arm incorrectly!

Perfect timing, was just thinking about my dwindling cereal stores in this new post-American era.

Are there data to support this argument though?

The markets went down early on as everything everywhere shut down, then I don't think had another sustained run of losses? And while trump didn't do great at the response, his ineptitude didn't really shine through until after the initial closures etc.

That's not to say the market is all that matters and I think his lack of response killed many people, it doesn't seem to have moved markets. (Darkly ironic, as most of the deaths were among senior citizens who have a low propensity to spend, you might perversely argue more seniors deaths led to a redistribution of wealth towards those with a higher marginal propensity to spend thus helping the markets. Obviously super immoral/evil but again, in terms of the markets...)

Ooooh, good answer.

I'm going for accuracy.

You could argue trump's response maybe made the markets slightly worse but blaming the covid market crash on American stupidity seems pretty far fetched.

Thanks!

He was a synonym for rich guy for awhile. And was even on WWE. So, depends how you define cool.

His whole plan was to avoid jail, I don't think he gives a damn what happens next beyond his own enrichment.

Crown Royal. It's a nice little whisky, especially for its price point.

I've also heard good things about BRBN (bourbon style whisky) by Okanagan Spirits distillery.

Panasonic, Genius Prestige.

That's actually super cool! (Admittedly, one of my favourite youtube channels is practical engineering so I am not an authority on actual coolness.)

Did you folks not have Red Shoe Diaries?

Honestly, carefully looking on marketplace, being willing to travel to the bougie end of town got me a high end microwave for cheapish and I'm never ever going back.

Sensor reheat, just heats my damn food. Frozen food setting, hell yeah, all thawed perfectly.

The rich live better and I'm fine enjoying their leavings.

Heya! Just wanted to say thanks. I tried Qobuz but had a couple of issues. Just tried Deezer and it's been fantastic, works with everything and my tiny little obscure bands are all there! It's like catching up with old friends I haven't seen in far too long.

Thanks again!

There's been a significant, internationally tested drop in functional literacy skills in the last decade or so.

I agreed to sub for a friend's soccer team despite having not played for a decade or so.

Fast forward a decade: I captain a team, play on two others, have made a boatload of awesome friends and am in better shape than I've ever been (which is a weird thing to say as an almost 40 year old.)

Christ, this sounds like an onion article.

Related story, basically the hardest I laughed during covid.

Being a good Vancouverite, when those convoy fucks wanted to parade around and honk at hospitals, hundreds or thousands of us with bikes got in their way and kept them away from the hospitals.

Okay, so we're blocking an arterial and some convoy fuck is screaming at us about how, in his words, "we've got to protest smarter." He then finally realizes we have been politely letting non convoy cars through the lane next to him, so floors the accelerator and aims for that lane. But, he didn't shoulder check and slammed right into a car in that lane in front of a cop. So for the next however long we got to point and laugh while advising him about the merits of shoulder checking and how he needed to drive smarter.

Gotta love when an asshole causes a 100% fault car crash with no injuries.
