the Democratic nominee for U.S. Senate in Michigan, has raised eyebrows after asking Fox News’ Jesse Watters if he is circumcised during a combative prime-time interview.

Man fuck right off, that wasn't at all a weird question to ask in response to a fucking weird obsession Jesse has with children's "dingilings"

I'm not from New York nor the US even so forgive me if I'm not up to date but how is Mandani Zionist? Isn't he the guy the media got worked up about saying he'd arrest Netanyahou if he came to New York?

No, common misconception but that was his brother, Rob Ford. Ontarians really watched Rob make Toronto municipal politics global news by being a crack addicted mess and thought we'd give his brother control of the whole province for a decade

edit: although Doug Ford was a big hash dealer earlier in his life

Ford is an absolute piece of shit, yeah. He's a conservative who has absolutely gutted our healthcare, education, social services and countless other things. He's also currently in a war against bikes and has been getting bike lanes ripped out all over the province.

I hate him with a passion but he has at least been very offensive in asserting our sovereignty which is nice even if it's completely shallow and done purely for his own self interests. Marlaine on the other hand though...

Arcanepotato's response nails most of it I think but my understanding is also that his commute (when he actually goes into the office) is primarily down a traffic-heavy street that happens to have a bike lane and he's bitter seeing cyclists fly past him while he's stuck in gridlock; so in spite of them, he's dedicated himself to ripping that lane out along with all the others in this province

Idk, I don't have much faith left in Americans. I feel like we've been through "surely they'll do something once " too many times now

Note that nearly everyone would benefit from this, as the reduced expense of necessities would offset the extra paid in taxes, and most households would end up ahead

Reminiscent of the carbon tax rebate here in Canada which I still miss but people are absolute morons

I've been trying to learn French. My whole dad's side of the family is Québécois but I grew up with my Mum for the most part in Ontario and was never spoken French to :(. I've cut off most of that side of the family now but I still adore everything about Québec and want to feel at home there someday

I love this and I love the DS with a Value Village price tag on it. I have a Nintendo SP and a Wii that both them too because I never bothered to scrape them off haha

Ima need Peter to explain the joke for this one

I would honestly be so for that just to have the language disconnect from Americans. Living above the USA is so exhausting and anxiety inducing

Thats the reversed one and the ritual is normally the original's posted first and then the reversed is posted in reply :)

I don't know what it is but no matter how nice of socks I get or how well I take care of them, they will get a hole in the big toe area within a year at the very latest. I've never had socks last long enough to have the elastic wear out

Also yes my nails are kept short so it's not that

A T440p running Antergos got me through college. I regret selling it since that thing served me well 🫡

Fair point! In this case, I sold it to my brother who got through a fair bit of university with it so it did help a lot of people.

I get sentimental about tech that I used for a while though so I kind of hoard it all now that I don't need to sell the device to replace it

In my city in Canada you need to hold the crossing button for like a second or two and then it'll do the noise. Maybe that's why it seems random? I know its easy to do by mistake

Nissan tracking your sexual activity is absolutely the weirdest privacy violation I've ever seen or heard of

“You’re telling me none of these people shop on Amazon?” said New Orleans native Jake Springer, who, along with his wife, was spending a weekend in Venice on a wine tour through Italy. “At least they are protesting peacefully. Americans could learn a thing or two from this.”

He briefly paused for the chamber’s prayer at noon

Wait what. I know separation of church and state is barely real in the USA, but the chamber actually does a prayer??
