Pretty much yes. The only one I'm not 100% on (besides the scout skin, since that was after I stopped playing) is the engineer prosthetic. I feel like that weapon came out a while after TF2 was made (but I can't check that right now so don't take my word for it).

This AI slop is so dumb too

• left guy is breaking past his keyboard
• right guy has his message read one minute after he told them to arrive, meaning he was left on read until the literal last second

Like even in their dream scenario, they're unread? Lmao

I believe in Friends, it's justified as Monika pretending that her grandmother is living there so she still gets her rent controlled tenancy agreement. I thought I remembered that there was an episode where she and the custodian were having a fight so he threatened to reveal the grandma isn't alive anymore so that Monika would have renegotiate the agreement (and it was resolved so he didn't do that.)

As for Joey and Chandler's apartment, no clue how that one happened lol

Seriously. I have too many American friends who are confused when I tell them I have and will have no interest in going down to America, even if it's just to visit them, for the foreseeable future and they wonder why.

Could it be because your country was having open public discourse on the merits of annexing us? Or maybe that I don't want to get thrown into an ICE concentration camp for no reason?

I feel embarrassed to say this, but I straight up have to use reminders to go "hey, talk to X person" and set them up in advance. Because otherwise our chats will just be me going "happy birthday" or "happy new year" and that's it for the year.

It's not that my friends aren't important to me, its just that it never occurs to me naturally to be the one reaching out. Can't tell if I'm a bad friend or if I just have zero object permanence for people lmao

To the Americans crying about how unfair we're being by celebrating their economic loss and how "what are we supposed to do about our administration?"

Now you know a fraction of how every person in a country under US sanctions feels. The exact logic you're railing against is the same logic your country applies to Cuba.

The difference being those people have to deal with the immiserstion of brutal poverty and you just have to deal with having to find a new job and some mean Canadians online poking fun at you. Cry me a river.

Given that Canadians don't typically vote in American elections, I don't see how that has anything to do with us or should affect our decision making.

The USA is tariffing us, not just the red states.

In this thread: Europeans being casually xenophobic about immigrants in The Americas and the dishes they bring from home, thus proving this new community's point.

Anyway while I'm on my European slander streak, let me tell you a story: One time i was staying in a hostel in Montreal and there was a French guy (like, a l'hexagon French, not Quebecois) there. He unironically said to me "A single tomato from France tastes better than this shit you call poutine." That quote lives rent free in my head.

Also you wanna know why he was in Montreal? Cuz he couldn't get a job in France. peak comedy

She [the labour minister] appeared to link her actions to the toll that US tariff increases had taken on the Canadian economy. “In a year in which Canadian families and businesses have already experienced too much disruption and uncertainty, this is not the time to add additional challenges and disruptions to their lives and our economy,” she said in a statement.

Oh fuck off. When is there ever not "disruption and uncertainty"? Like what, trump does a thing and therefore workers rights shouldn't exist anymore? There's never a good time for job action, that's why it's a tool and why bargaining exists. The return to work order is such clear government overreach, this is an embarrassment.

Much prettier and I love birds, but on what planet is the bottom one less work? Every one of those plants requires maintenance.

And this is why my opinion of someone drops by ten points whenever I hear them make fun of someone for wearing safety gear

Remember: it's very hot to care about your own life and wellbeing~

The rust compiler holds your hand, wraps you in blankets, makes you hot chocolate, kisses you on the forehead before it gently and politely points out what you did wrong and how you can solve it step-by-step. It would never think of something as heinous as swearing at you, shame on you for insulting my wife's honour like this.

I agree with the sentiment of this post, but these numbers are silly.

$150m would barely build a bus fleet transit system, nevermind the maintenance, operating, and personnel costs for the fleet (and completely forget about actual long term transit solutions like rail at that cost figure).

And $1b stadiums are outliers -- our city got into controversy over our stadium which costed around $250m. Not many municipalities are loaded enough to be getting into billion dollar capital expenditure decisions.

Furry here and just want to say: isn't this entire discussion super disrespectful to the important job that animal control personnel actually do?

Like, animal control has an important role in protecting communities from animals and helping animals that are injured. They shouldn't have to be dragged into this stupid outrage farming.

Generally speaking, you will be asked to swear or affirm that you are going to tell the truth, and that you understand the consequences of not telling the truth. Whether you do a whole ceremony about it or not, it doesn't really matter -- but the court will want to know that you are competent to testify truthfully and that you know that you're not allowed to testify to things you know aren't true.

If you're asking "can you be forced to testify?", the answer is "Yes but it depends." If you're competent to testify and the officers of the court deem your testimony important, they can subpoena your testimony. If you have a reason to contest it, you can -- but "I don't want to" isn't good enough.

Why does an actor have to give commentary against bumper stickers?

How do you make a quick hummus for lunch? I swear when I start cooking, I blink and it's an hour later.

Can we all agree to not joke about people playing within their limits from now on?

Wow, I can't believe I'm about to say that I like what this banker just said.

But uhh, I think I like what this banker just said.
