I never saw weed as causing someone problems in their life. I would agree that life can drive some people to use drugs, but I also think that meth makes life exponentially worse.

Watched 1 episode, it was at least 1/2 scripted reality TV bullshit.

This is going to be worse than the housing market crash in 2008. Everyone is going to keep trying to cash in as long as they can, until the house of cards falls.

Talya Lador, Israel's consul general to Southern Germany, said, "Are we back in the 1930s?"

There is a genocide, but Israel is committing the genocide this time.

Don't worry, corporate farms will sweep in to buy up their land and everyone wins.

I remember companies doing this with cloud services.

CEO: Get rid of everything on-prem, the cloud sales person said cloud is cheaper!

First year cloud coats are more than 3 year depreciation of on-prem equipment

CEO: Huh...welp it's impossible for me to be wrong, so we're just going to say it was cheaper.

I don't know about Canada, but in the U.S. farmers are so subsidized they don't lose money. A lot of people here still have the false illusion of the hard working small farm farmer. They don't realize how condensed farming has become.

Every person I've known that has a Jeep: I LOVE MY JEEP!

Me: You never have any problems with it?

Everyone: Oh yeah, all the time. But it's a JEEP!

During WW2 the Remington company was selling ammunition to the U.S. and also the German Nazis.

The Remington family has generational wealth today from selling bullets to kill U.S. soldiers. The Bush family, who had 2 people as presidents, are also married into the Remington family.

I know to a rational person it may seem that way, but the Republican party isn't rational.

SCOTUS has given the green light for every state to gerrymander districts as much as they can. There's more red states than blue states in the U.S., and as long as people stay in the Trump cult, and/or are willfully stupid, it's going to be tough to have real change. They'll just keep burning their own house down to spite their neighbors.

I know the recent special elections have flipped seats, but I think it's way too early to say the Republican party is in trouble. The U.S. has a lot of racist dumb people.

It's possible to simultaneously think there are issues with the Chinese government and U.S. government.  You could mention 3 June 1989 I'm China or Epstein files in the U.S.
