  • As someone not familiar with all this, I think what’s telling is that she says “sorry” yet plays the victim outright immediately afterwards. If you say “I’m sorry for what I did and I just hope he’s sorry for what he did” then that says to me “I realize I screwed up, stop forgetting he screwed up too” then fine. But “I’m sorry” and then segueing into “he hurt me” without an acknowledgement of what you did? Clearly trying to deflect as much blame as possible. The worst part is she’s probably doing it that way because the family lawyer advised her on what slander is. Fucking rich bitch flaunting her whiteness, and I say this as someone who looks as white as they come.

    That said, a big help is that it doesn’t seem like the black dude was spending his time since the incident with business as usual from what the event suggests. That’s nothing on it’s own, but it lends further credibility that the Karen has no ground to stand on.


  • Look, if I have to hear one more “you’re stupid because I disagree with your proposal” then I’m fucking done with the Fediverse. I was IMPLYING “tell your landlord that he’s an asshole and when he admits it, burn all his properties down” because CANADA LITERALLY HAS A HOUSING CRISIS.

    Is “destroy houses to hurt landlords and then get arrested” reasonable? No. But until people start demanding free homes on penalty of death, we will never again have enough housing because NOT HAVING ENOUGH HOUSING IS TOO PROFITABLE.

    So either start burning down your landlord’s houses, or fuck off, because people are literally homeless because of worthless pieces of shit like you.

    I am now blocking you. Go die.


  • Here in Canada, I sure hope so. I, however, subscribe to the idea that - at present - they are unreliable in a Canadian winter. That means you either drive, or you start asking for better transit. Considering how rural we are I doubt my province will be able to build bus routes that can serve most car owners better than a car. It’s not an all-year thing, but yes, this part of Canada gets brutal winters with ridiculous snowfall.

    I do approve of the high speed rail project between Edmonton/Red Deer/Calgary and the company with the orange rentable electric scooters. I just know it’s not as simple as “drive an electric car” or “don’t drive unless you have to” here, which admittedly is not the case for the US, China or India who are all subtropical/temperate and dense and produce tons of CO² emissions but also are the biggest drivers of advancing renewables energy. Sadly Canada does not have the advantage of density or technological focus to reduce our own sizable emissions.

    If anyone you know has died/dies of climate crisis events like floods, you have my condolences and apology, not stereotypically but genuinely. This really was partly our fault, the numbers say we produced as much as the US in carbon emissions with a tenth of the population, and among changes like Bill C-11 and corruption in the immigration process that are failing to protect people in danger, I cannot claim I have a likeable, benevolent home country. We try, but… Yeah. Life isn’t made of tropes and problems have arisen here. Hopefully we can at least rejuvenate our energy grid with all this, I’m cautiously optimistic.
