Hello. I don't usually make personal posts but I am glad this site exists. I left reddit after 5 years. It was on reddit that I was pointed here. The Fediverse sounds like a beneficial collective and I am excited to see it grow.

Usually I just post stupid puns (which are very clever in my head) and topical quips which offer nothing (but are very genius in my head). I hope to have fun, get informed, and learn something from the pack along the way. Goodbye.

3 times in my life I took out a consolidation loan to corral all those costs and pay them off. Credit cards are both a blessing and a curse. Gov't should provide credit services at a reasonable, non-compounding, interest rate.

Between credit card companies, finance companies and the banks, the interest they extract yearly would put all the space billionaires to shame.

Signed and done.

Evolution of human behaviour is slow. Right now we are all enmeshed in the dawning discovery that the current way we run society is falling apart at the seams. Just enter the core of almost any city in North America and you'll see what I mean (and not just N. America). It'll take a while to set itself right, or it may all just burn in a raging nuclear fire launched by a pissed off oligarch who does not get his way.

Definitely not forward progress towards a better day.

Never lose your cool. Smile and talk to them like they are a three year old.

A criminal who lies and is greedily destroying his nations economy while demanding fealty and respect. That percentage should be lower and it makes me wonder whether the tinkering they are doing with their schools is finally working.

I recently left reddit for lemmy. More so because of the 51st state bullshit and calling our Prime Minister a governor, rather than the tariff's and buy Canadian. Most of what I posted on reddit had no value and I hope to continue that honourable tradition here.

It's almost like perpetual motion with both sides being complicit in keeping the circular motion going. Capitalism...what can you do?

Can the US shut down the planes from afar? Why would Canada submit to this purchase if that is a factor?

Can't blame Elon really. Everyone wants to protect their heroes and saviours.

That's a good quote! Thanks.

I'm starting to see that most Canadians are more interested in american politics than in their own countries politics. When a gigantic behemoth is wounded, and about to fall, you get a lot of rubberneckers. Sadly, I include myself in this list.
