@Sloshwell @DelusionPosting So it’s not banned. They just don’t want 9 year olds reading about mature themes? This is like saying Eminem is banned because his records can’t be sold to 10 year olds.

@DelusionPosting PEN America's October 2025 report verifies the claim, documenting 206 instances of King's titles removed from school libraries, primarily for mature themes like violence and sexuality, outpacing other authors.

@marc02200 Bitcoin.

Name one thing that got cheaper in the last 5 years. I'll wait.

@TheChaosWeeber Inflation from 2015-2025 was 28%. Housing prices during that same time is up 99%. Is 4 times the rate of inflation effective the same in your books? My dictionary might be outdated.

Considering house prices are going down and inflation adjusted are effectively the same price as 10 years ago, seems the Liberals were the right choice…..

@AidanSimardone Imagine thinking almost 100B dollar deficit is austerity

You all need to stop focusing on Poilievere. Carney is already implementing conservative austerity

@wishiwascole @DavidAn1611 @TripHazard11 @kbo_coyote @ShamashAran So it’s the same way that people have an option with the save act

@Bignogak @DavidAn1611 @TripHazard11 @kbo_coyote @ShamashAran Nope. Thats an option you choose. Plus stamps can be given out for free based on need.

Voting by mail is illegal because you have to buy a stamp every time you do it. That's a poll tax.

@ChoicelessBag @DelusionPosting If you’re poor in the west it is because you’re lazy and make poor choices.

@DelusionPosting I kind of like this. Its obviously retarded but it opens the possibility of me saying the same shit for capitalism. Anyone poor in capitalism is poor because they are lazy not because of the system. Seriously thoo how fucking brainwash do you have to be to agree to any of this

@wishiwascole @DavidAn1611 @TripHazard11 @kbo_coyote @ShamashAran But if they need to vote by mail the stamps are a poll tax.

@DavidAn1611 @TripHazard11 @kbo_coyote @ShamashAran Those folks can mail in vote. See how options for all?

@wishiwascole @TripHazard11 @kbo_coyote @ShamashAran Shoes and food for energy to walk is a poll tax.

@TripHazard11 @kbo_coyote @ShamashAran Nope. You can walk. That’s why polling stations are local. Not a tax because it’s. Not required.

@KarenMessier @TDotResident You haven’t seen Canadians saying the American government went wrong?

@TDotResident An American suggesting the Canadian government went horribly wrong. There are no words 🤦‍♀️

Dude voted for Trump. What are we even doing here.

@Cherry07Ca @globeandmail And that’s wrong.

@globeandmail Yes, Assembly workshop is fully automated — it’s called a lights-out factory.

Chinese EV maker BYD in talks to open Canadian dealerships, consultant says theglobeandmail.com/business/artic…

@EyesOnTheCall @Cherry07Ca @globeandmail They are not building cars in the dark. You guys are hilarious. Yes all of the welding and painting is done by robots just like North America and could be done in the dark. You try getting a robot to feed a wire harness or plug in some pia clips.

@Cherry07Ca @globeandmail They build cars through complete automation. They don’t even have the lights on in their factories.

@RequiemPog @BTCBreadMan Why would you have separate fun money. I couldn’t imagine going up to my wife and saying let’s go on a trip in February to get some sun, she says she doesn’t have enough money. I say adios and head down to the beach solo. It’s just a crazy way to live. That’s roommates

Get your Dave Ramsay ass advice out of here. In all seriousness though I think a joint bank account is useful. My wife and I have one to pay all the bills but we have separate checking account we split our fun money to. And I have a savings account for when I want to buy bigger dumb purchases like guns or computer parts.

My best friend is 36 years old. He’s been married for 7 years, but they still don’t have a joint bank account. He and his wife literally Venmo each other for half a meal out, or half of the gas bill. How do I kindly explain to him that they are acting like unserious children?

@SamTheCynic @culturalcritic3 @HazelAppleyard You you rather pay 10$ for lunch. Or 100$ for the exact same lunch. Most men have figured out if your woman is stupid enough to demand an identical lunch that costs 10 times the price they aren’t going to be a rational partner for the rest of their lives.

@culturalcritic3 @HazelAppleyard everyone seems on the natural diamond hate train rn and men are rushing to reddit to villainize their partners for wanting a natural diamond engagement ring… weird to me. if she’ll wear it for life, she should choose what stone it is. he should just admit he can't afford it.

I once had to reassure a (very broke) man that I adored that a £50 ring was absolutely fine and that I wanted to marry him more than I wanted an expensive ring. Sure enough he proposed with said ring, I adored it, I showed it off to everyone, and it did not matter one bit how much it cost. This relationship didn’t work out for other external reasons but at least it wasn’t because I would accept nothing less than a mined 3ct ring. He should run.

@Brian_Shuster @PeterSchiff Because if it was happening there wouldn’t be a need for tariffs and manufacturing would be coming back. However manufacturing output continues to drop and become a smaller part of the US economy.

@Bignogak @PeterSchiff But it is happening Why do you think it isn't?

What if inflation this year is closer to 10% than 2%? How will the Fed react to a "surprise" surge in inflation? If the Fed does the right thing and raises the Fed funds rate by several hundred basis points and resumes QT, the result will be a financial crisis worse than 2008.

@Brian_Shuster @PeterSchiff You might make products in America with automation cheaper than third world counties with a 200% tariff but it would still be more expensive than Americans currently pay.

@Brian_Shuster @PeterSchiff If business could automate currently to be cheaper than labour abroad they would already be doing it. Companies will change things to save Pennies per unit. Why would this already not be happening?

@poetic_pet @gmforbes35 They could do the same thing right now. Companies back then paid a lower effective rate than they pay today. It would be a reduction in government funding.

@Bignogak @gmforbes35 YES - EMPHATICALLY! You know what these did? They allowed company owners to expand by investing in their business, hiring more people, investing in productivity, not in stock buy back schemes.

Liberals: Carney can't do anything to reduce gas prices right now. Me: Um...... Eliminate the GST on gasolone/diesel, eliminate the federal gas tax, eliminate/pause the industrial carbon tax, cancel the clean fuel standard AKA carbon tax 2.

@VonVladimierV @wil_da_beast630 US population is 350M currently with massive agriculture assisted food production. In my mind it’s not possible for that level of caloric intake to be available to feed that many people 500 years ago

@wil_da_beast630 How did you derive that number? Does it for with archeological evidence? Don’t disagree with you, just read claims that North American Indian population peaked at 100 million in 1500 AD. They claimed evidence of large settlements etc.

There were max 5M native North Americans ever.

@poetic_pet @gmforbes35 If you want to bring back the tax rates to 1970 levels are you also advocating for bringing back the deductions that they enjoyed then as well?

@gmforbes35 Go back to 1970's tax levels for businesses and wealthiest individuals. Before that fucking trickle-down shit. You don't know what that means if you weren't there back then.

@poetic_pet @gmforbes35 Never heard of the laffer curve have you?

@gmforbes35 Then you're going to complain about an increasing deficit... Cutting taxes NEVER work to help reduce government deficits, because trickle-down economics doesn't work. BUT increasing taxes on the wealthiest corporations and individuals do. Then give a break to middle-class.
