It’s been clarified that you won’t need an id to buy. It would be more akin to a loyalty card. Seems they want to use it to track usage patterns and cut off scalpers.

I’m no believer but I think these people should hear the words of the Bible.

Matthew 6:4-6

4so that your giving may be in secret. And your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you. 5And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites. For they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by men. Truly I tell you, they already have their full reward. 6But when you pray, go into your inner room, shut your door, and pray to your Father, who is unseen. And your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.…

The chart skips the more frequent unit of distance used in Canada. Time. So could add that in instead.

I heard rumour recently he’s been speaking to legal eagle to find representation.

But yeah dude lives up to his YouTube account name. He’s very reckless and has at least on some level been dishonest in his presentation of the information. For example we know why he was arrested the second time. (Residential picketing) but he keeps saying he doesn’t know. Or the fact he lied about the process server being someone who he just met.

He’s by all accounts ultimately in the right for the stolen Lego but I’ve been shocked at how poorly prepared they have been to deal with cops. Ie why the fuck does he not stop talking to them lol.

Hopefully he manages to get the original owners of the Lego and the store made whole. And holy fuck I want to know what happened to crystals store bird BAM took.

That BlackBerry tablet. It honestly wasn’t a bad device on some levels. It had features that weren’t as easy on other devices for some time. Like the fact it automatically got internet from my phone seamlessly.

But support for apps was garbage and the hardware the dumb. If you let the battery fully discharge you had to spend like 15 minutes plugging and unplugging the power to force it to trickle charge to get enough battery for it to start the system that ran the battery management.

Really hope you're are right. And I hope the cop that told the truth isn't being ostracized by his follow officers.

That’s 100% what I thought the title meant before reading. Was like oh good some less right wing people getting promoted, maybe the dems did learn something from 2024. Nope… same old right wing dems.

Ice does have more functions than domestic removal of brown people. It's the same reason ICE was in italy for the Olympics. But why would anyone trust them anymore even if they do provide services that would be useful?

I don't think she has much power here but I am happy she is standing up for this.

Yeah, giving a prognosis on the duration of a war is usually not the best idea.

especially when it's continued operation will be beneficial to him politically.
