me: I don't understand how people can talk about sports so much

also me: this obscure groove metal band became much better after they got a new lead guitarist back in the mid-2000's

@Modern_Industrial

My (American) Mom: that seems kind of...silly?

Me: its code, Mom - he's virtually calling up the Canadian national guard

Trump: *does a bunch of dumb stuff*

Trudeau: "Canada is like a moose"

Americans (ignorant): Moose? Lol what a dipbrain

Canadians (knowing how badly a moose will fuck you up if you mess with it): oh damn those are fighting words shit is getting real

@popefucker Got it. New to me.

@xvu Congrats on both!

@popefucker Do you mean in the sense of "suss it out"? To divine or explore the nature of a thing through extended investigations?

Trudeau: We are not a security threat to the US!

Trump: Didn't you guys burn down the White House?

Pundits: Technically, it was the British.

Every Canadian I Know: JUST GIVE US THIS ONE THING

@kyzh Makes sense.

Honestly, I think the sexual politics of South Korea are really interesting, especially over the last few years, and haven't gotten nearly enough attention in the Western press.

Eating ribs is a perfect example of "you love what you fight for".

@kyzh This is wild - I can't believe this isnt bigger news.

@kyzh What? This sounds fascinating!

@ink_slinger @allan

Yes, definitely not what I wanted to hear. 😀 🙅♂️

As a side point, this differential as a justification for fighting gerrymandering in court in the US - the idea being that there is an "acceptable" or "natural reasonable" differential, and exceeding that indicates gerrymandering.

On the flip side, parliamentary systems have circuit breakers that the American system doesnt, through votes of no confidence. That's nice, at least.

@Nuntius Live the dream, friend

@sdmonty Welcome!
