  • We’re in quite the state up here. One of our biggest problems is that Conservatives rule in many provinces, another problem is leakage of American conservatism up north, and a third problem is our PM is deeply unpopular despite, and I am willing to defend this, being one of the best PM’s the country has had in my lifetime (40 years). It doesn’t matter that one could fill a book with the PM’s accomplishments, the guy has been tuned out by the population and honestly needs to retire. He has been around long enough to have accumulated enough ill will that he drags his party down, my party, and I hate saying it but I feel like he has to go before we end up with a conservative blowout and all the progress of the last decade is erased in just four years.




  • I mean yea, non consenting chemical alteration of someone’s mental state is a messed up thing, accidental or not. For someone not expecting it, or not used to it, you will likely think you’re sick. That could be distressing. It could be dangerous if that person were, say, headed off to work (nurse, doctor, crane operator, taxi driver, office worker on commute), or had been avoiding cannabis due to family history of psychosis, or has a damaged immune system and now fears they’ve caught something, we also feed pizza to kids.

    Most probably nothing grim will come of this, and the jokes are fine I think, but we all should understand that this is serious.



  • Loss of life would be tragic, of course, awful. I think people could be put in the very real, very dangerous situation where they’ve been abandoned by the captured court, and the fascists are installing themselves on a perversion of the law, and the freedom of all Americans is at stake. Not just freedom, like we’ve seen with abortion bans, and increasingly violent rhetoric, it will be lives at stake.

    When you’ve been put in that position what can you do? The courts won’t care, the republicans won’t care, and if they take over like this it will be permanent. Dark fucking days ahead.

    And let’s not pretend a coup in America wouldn’t have ramifications abroad either.
