HungryJerboa,

Fuck Shoppers. High dispensing fees mean literally anybody else can do it better. Switch to your local pharmacy.

HungryJerboa,

Disappointing to hear of this. He had a sharp tongue and I liked some of his critiques when he was still writing occasional columns for the Globe and Mail, but I didn’t realize he already lost his journalistic integrity…

HungryJerboa,

It’s so bloody stupid that a Loblaws owned grocery store gets to keep the name of Independent. Why do we tolerate this dystopian double-speak?

Anyways boycotting isn’t viable for me so “shrinkage” will have to do.

HungryJerboa,

If only climate change could be cancelled.

HungryJerboa,

Poachers are scum and deserve to be punished.

HungryJerboa,

Fear.

Fear of losing bodily autonomy and control to mandatory vaccines, fear of government overreach (easy boogeyman to paint), but most of all, fear of unknown things they don’t understand (microbiology and immunology).

Too bad they will have to relearn the fear of losing their children to a formerly eradicated disease.

Of course, the bastards with a financial incentive to profit from any patsy that falls for it also perpetuate this cycle of fear and loathing.

HungryJerboa,

This piece of trash needs to be arrested and extradited.

HungryJerboa,

I think the part that hurts is that nobody Israeli government has any idea what to do with Palestine and its people after the shooting stops, other than the far right nut jobs calling for expansion of Israeli settlements and de facto ethnic cleansing of the land.

Without a viable strategic end goal other than the destruction of Hamas as a military force and political entity, and a refusal to recognize a Palestinian state, what other conclusion can bystanders reach aside from seeing this war as an effort to destroy or displace the Palestinian people?

HungryJerboa,

I’m going to enjoy watching the UCP squirm when the water wars arrive.

HungryJerboa,

Gut the police budget because this is a city without crime!

HungryJerboa,

There’s several big problems that impede adoption of electric cars, one being limits to battery technology (like winter performance, charging speeds, and mileage off a single charge). Although they have gotten better over the years, there’s still more room for improvement. Another issue is that a sizeable chunk of the population lives in rural and remote areas, where the necessary infrastructure to support electric vehicles simply doesn’t exist. But even in more urbanized areas like Southern Ontario, the network of charging stations for electric cars is not consistent enough for many people to switch. There’s no excuse there - multiple Provincial governments failed to address this problem due to a lack of vision and forward thinking (or lobbying from automakers against green policies and infrastructure that hurt their bottom line), while most voters were too busy worrying about carbon footprints (corporate gaslighting) rather than discussing long term solutions.

HungryJerboa,

I agree with all of you, though the fight for expanded public transit will be even harder than that of electric cars (just look at Toronto’s light rail/subway woes)

HungryJerboa,

That’s a good point. It doesn’t have to replace all use cases, but just handle the most common ones more efficiently (without being prohibitively expensive to purchase).

Change is scary for people, but we must adapt to free ourselves of our addiction to oil and gas.

HungryJerboa,

I’m sorry you feel this way.

Try to remember that the internet is not fully representative of real life. The world outside will hopefully feel less angry and stressful than this online one.

Definitely avoid social media doomscrolling. It’s fucking toxic.
