Gentle reminder that without "small time", hourly workers doing real labor your easy, sweatless, office job would disappear overnight. Perhaps some gratitude? Maybe even some solidarity?

As a former IT professional turned baker, I dislike the condescending attitude too many white collar workers have toward the actual wheel turners of the world.

I'm encouraged that this is becoming more well known

It has to do with what they believe is predicted in Revelations, which is to say in order to bring about the Second coming they need a mountain of dead Jews. Best way to ensure that outcome is to vehemently support Israel as their genocidal wars spiral out of control. That's why Trump moved the US Embassy to Jerusalem, it's symbolic to the Christian Nationalists

I'm sorry, I did the worst possible Internet thing and assumed intent and perspective. Clearly I was in the wrong. I deleted my comment for being unproductive in the first place

This is going to be devastating

Fête Nationale / St Jean-Baptiste

There are over 2 million Franco Americans in New England alone. And yet, I seem to be one of the few who remembers our history, nevermind our language. This is not an indictment, we've had to adapt to survive and avoid persecution.

But still we're allowed to be proud, we're allowed to be seen, and I'd love to live long enough to see our diaspora celebrate our roots and our present on both sides of the border

Et bien sûr, vive le Québec libre

You live in a decaying empire on a planet with finite resources and a collapsing environment. You're focusing on the forest, they're focusing on the trees, and it's all so nobody has to notice that it's all on fire.
