I stepped on multiple rusty nails in the old barn my parents bought and raised me in. They were very insistent on staying up on tetanus shots!

In the legislature of British Columbia in Canada, all MLAs take turns leading the daily prayer. Atheist MLAs tend to opt for a minute of silence (probably so their religious colleagues can have a little pray and they can have a little peace)

When all you have is a penis, every problem looks like a pork sword fight.

Naw this joke has legs.
What kind of legs do you think he prefers on his couches? Cushion feet?

No he means GROCERIES an old fashioned word.

W.T.Hawkins, the makers of Cheezies, are pretty good. I personally don't like their product, but I admire them as a company.

It was a well-constructed joke about makeup choices. Totally appropriate.

Why do you think jokes are unnecessary? On a social media platform no less?

Well, there's a decent chance you might be a woman, and obviously women can't be trusted to make medical decisions for themselves or their children, so.

I think it's reminding me more of the Warsaw Ghetto.

What is going on with those rugs? One of them looks like it has baby sick on it.

I mean I don't think HE is because he doesn't have the skills, but nobody needs a flesh penis to go to town on another consenting adult.

I think suggesting that the US was the most loved and respected country in the world six months ago is overstating things. Certainly you were more loved and respected then.

You can get Miss Manners' books used if you want a detailed guide (and you should, they're a fun read) of what fork to use.

That dude just told us more than we really wanted to know about his porn search history.

I was once mad because my parents weren't perfect, but that was when I was 16. And then I grew the fuck up.
Note: my parents weren't abusive, they were just fallible humans. My mother stayed away from her toxic mother for many decades, a great decision.

Heck, my (now dead) boomer mom cut off her mother for roughly the same reasons you're speaking of. They learned that behaviour from their parents; my mom just thought about it and rejected it.

In Canada we generally call them "loggers"; or if searching for a specific skill "fallers" or, I kid you not, "hookers"

Well, a lot of misogynists marry women, too, instead of doing the logical thing.

I think this is actually a whine about NATO, which Trump has been whining about since his first term.
Canada has its own military paid for by Canadian taxes, which cooperates extensively with its allies, usually other members of NATO.

I didn't know puberty blockers existed until assholes came after trans kids, but if they had existed in 1954 when my mother hit puberty at 8 years old, that would really have improved her life.

2/ an epidemiologist, and he said to wash hands and get vaccinated and stuff. There's more than that, but that was probably the core of it.

During the pandemic I had two different people ask me why I was trusting the science, and I started thinking about it and I think for me I'd been reading @bengoldacre.bsky.social blog and then twitter for a long time, and he seemed like an actual person, and he didn't work on COVID but was 1/

I remember the day I found out I was 100% on the same side of an issue as a British politician who I think is among the dumbest and most venal, and I spent a few days soul searching as to whether I still believed the same thing about the issue because of the yikes.

You know the answer to that is 'of course not'

I tend to view the attacks on trans girls in sports as a precursor to attacks on girls and women's sports generally.
(yes I know trans boys play sports too but it's apparently not as much of a hot button issue)

Whoah there sparky, I've had 53 years more or less of fortitude in the face of the patriarchy, but that's only because I'm 53.

I get your point, but gold bars are famously heavy. Doubt Trump could carry any.

I generally have too many sheets, because I've learned over the years that sometimes you can't find sheets you don't think are hideous, and that time will be when your existing sheets rip irreparably.

I wonder if it wouldn't be more accurate to ask jewellers in diverse areas about what size rings they sell to what racial groups. That would be a weird thing to do but so was this.

I was vaccinated with everything you could get as a child born in 1971, and I got pertussis when I was about 11. I wasn't sick enough to need hospital treatment, but I still have vivid memories of what it felt like, and an enduring hatred for the taste of sweet cough syrups.

Come on, it's not like there's universities in China who study their own population or medical scientists in China or millions of people who read and speak both English and at least one form of Chinese....oh.

They're not the only children's graves in that cemetery of course, it dates back to the 1800s and is quite sprawling (and has many non-western people buried in it; the person who was carving Japanese headstones in the 20s-30s was VERY talented) But the midcentury area has all these little lambs.

The Methodist cemetery near me has a section from the 1930s-50s where the style was a carved lamb on top of the stone. Once you realize what they are, you look around and your stomach lurches.

Don't know about the province you're in, but we were encouraged to enjoy the outdoors in my province, it wasn't a lockdown.

The Roman Empire did a whole bunch of slavery too, isn't he supposed to think about that daily or something?
