It was awesome having everyone’s artwork cross my feed every day

I enjoyed participating too, but it was a rough month for me and I didn’t keep up.

Thank you so much for facilitating this!

I love the look of your kitchen, so to me it already looks cozy

The other suggestions are good, and I’d look for something to go above the window over the sink.

This odd something I would donate to a gofundme to help with.

Ideally this gets sorted without that though.

Friends are just the family you assimilate

I love this line, I'm assimilating that into my vocabulary.

Paints the Borg in a much friendlier light too!

I'm in agreement with you that I don't want the government to be fiddling with the pipes of the internet like that.

They could restrict Canadian ad buying, merchandise purchases via credit card, and restrict app store use, and that would do something.

I just feel like this gesture is symbolic at best. We haven't done anything about the security concerns.

We should be building a domestic tech industry so we don't see all the value extracted elsewhere.

I'm not sure how closing their domestic office while not banning or ordering significant changes accomplishes anything.

It really just hurts Canadian tech workers who will take contractor roles with the TikTok US office. I've met a few TikTok employees and they're actually very high caliber workers, so it would be a shame to lose them (though I disagree with the ownership of TikTok and refuse to use it).

If anything we should take a page out of China's book and require an office where we hold the leadership directly accountable for those security concerns, which frankly 99% of people don't understand or care about.

The outcome is not good for Canada and is deeply bad for several issues I care deeply about.

I do hope this drives introspection here about how our working class feels and has been struggling, and that it drives political change before we see a sweeping conservative majority in the next election.

Sure, Hitler passed some of the first anti-smoking laws.

That doesn’t excuse all the other awful awful things he did.

Also his anti smoking laws failed as the war went on longer and longer.

I know it’s nothing useful for concrete or really all that helpful, but I support you and you’re in my thoughts. I hope things get better for you and all the people who have a tough time ahead.

I know this thread is about a serious topic

On a lighter note, this is peak “smell the fart” acting

Which of the Pickwick triplets did it?

Who of the crew would commit this crime?

Might a little brat make a mommy go splat?

It's a story pretty gory for a nursery rhyme!

OC - screen caps from Sub Rosa mixed with the old Reefer Madness poster.

I had fun with this one, the halftone effect gave me a lot of trouble.

This post inspired me to try and create a Reefer Madness post. Title based on this trailer.

I had fun with this one, it’s a bit messy though

In my head there was a heavenly light pouring out from the grocery store.

I’ve never used my marker pen before so decided to try it out, I like the feel of it

I don’t often shade with brush pens, and I’m rusty on my lining, but I had fun

Mot talking over Picard feels like a latinum mine for memes.

This episode has so much cringe in it.

Geordie setting up a meeting and trying to make it into a date is a lot. Plus omitting that he had the computer summarize her files to resolve a critical crisis, while using the information he got from her file in discussing with her is not good.

Brahms does an excellent job letting him down and putting up firm boundaries.

But oh god, when she discovers the holodeck program, and then Geordie rant!

It's tough to watch in a totally different way than the Quark Gender swap episode.

I just watched Measure of a Man, they rule Data has the right to choose. But in Voyager the EMH gets relegated to forced servitude. Why? Doesn’t that violate precedent?

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre stepped into the debate over trans rights on Wednesday, saying "biological males" should be banned from women's sports, change rooms and bathrooms.

"Female spaces should be exclusively for females, not for biological males," Poilievre said in Kitchener, Ont.

The Conservative leader made the comments after being asked if, as prime minister, he would introduce legislation to prevent "transgender women" or "biological men" from participating in female sports or entering female prisons and shelters.

"A lot of the spaces … are provincially and municipally controlled, so it is unclear ... what reach federal legislation would have to change them," Poilievre said.

"But obviously female sports, female change rooms, female bathrooms should be for females, not for biological males," he added.
