Oh you were looking for DOGE? Let me transfer you now…

Fucking what kind of line of questioning is it when cops are resteaining you or holding you on the ground or against a fence…

People can’t name a woman under pressure.

Many songs if I like enough I figure out some of the words when looking for the title. Otherwise I remember them then forget them for a while. A couple famous examples I like:

Dschinghis Khan - Moskau, it’s a bop, i know the melody but lyrics I only know parts of.

O-Zone - Dragostea Din Tea - this one of course I know front to back but I don’t know what a single word means.

Ok courts, time to do your job, put this guy in check. This “official act” is unconstitutional and illegal, come on, do something.

I totally understand that overreach makes hunting and recreational shooting activities a lot more difficult.

On the flipside, it means that assembly in Canada is peaceful by default without the constant threat of escalation into gun violence as can happen in the USA. It means that in our cities, 19 times out of 20 we only have to worry about pointy objects being potentially used as weapons by people walking down the street rather than guns.

The styling of firearms is just for show over safety I agree. But maintaining a culture of responsibly using firearms as a privilege of partaking in the sport, rather than as a right, is a distinction that gives us Canadians a better quality-of-life overall. There’s far fewer grey areas in Canada as to where and what guns should be legally used for.

The best bike infrastructure in the GTA is no match for the stupidest drivers in the GTA.

On the other side of the country, here in Vancouver, a couple times a year you get a car that decides to turn into the separated bicycle lane.

Honestly inviting anyone over is motivation for me to clean. In my own space, there’s stuff everywhere, but when someone’s coming my standards for personal cleanliness and organization shoot up dramatically.

Oh the Urbanity, a Canadian couple discussing housing and transit !urbanism@video.canadiancivil.com

Might be the time for Minnesota to join Canada, Tim. Think big.

If you want to end politically-motivated gun violence becoming normalized, time to leave the USA and ban guns not used for hunting or within shooting ranges.

Obviously, yes. Those topics were touched on at the local rally.

Yeah, with the official act things clearly the Roberts Supreme Court wants their finger on everything unconstitutional the Trump administration does.

I’ll be out there today in solidarity with your democracy. The people are the last bastion of resistance to fascism.

(The answer is it just broke and there are a lot of newsworthy things happening today)

It was an almost inevitable succession to robbers cosplaying as ICE. If one is deemed normal, then extrajudicial killings where in the moment you believe it’s illegal to defend yourself will be normalized too. If this is allowed to stand, or your president would pardon this kind of violence, your country is lost.

The name on the court document was wrong. Only a US citizen and her kids were present when Noem and ICE arrived, so all they did was search the house, turn around the doorbell camera, bring them all out, and harass them while brandishing their firearms. Great job…

Well, here’s hoping you have a better time with us on Lemmy! My Reddit account is 8 years old, but I stopped using it and have been on Lemmy full time for 2 years now.

I think the issue is you are posting too early for Reddit, you should be commenting for the first week at least.

Essentially, the coarse-grained spam-filter assumes that anyone that has a whole bunch of posts ready to go the day they sign up is a bot spammer. Even here on Lemmy, if you sign up then immediately try to copy and paste a post 10 times to different communities, you will get reported and banned for spamming.

The principle behind it is like any social space online or offline: if you are a legitimate new member, you will start on the fringes and slowly settle in, from introducing yourself to a few members, attend events, to then asking questions, before making any influential speeches or going into a leadership position. Anyone trying to fast track that will be met with suspicion from members.

Reddit and Lemmy are similar in a sense. you start as a lurker, become a commentor, then you are well-adjusted enough to post.

Our right to make the air dirtier for us and our neighbours > states’ rights.

In Canada we have this thing called “bulk barn” (a brand of bulk food stores) that you pay by weight, as much or as little as you want, but you put each item you get into its own plastic bag.

Remember, in the US, you can be charged for obstructing a plain-clothes officer’s duties even before they ID themselves. (I’m not a lawyer but you could refer to 18 USC 111 or 18 USC 1501, or the fact that police don’t need to know the law properly to enforce it, Heien v. North Carolina)

And, fake-ICE cosplayers like this guy can have their charges dropped by DOJ or pardoned by Trump.

So if you get visited by someone unknown, you’re damned if you do or you don’t. Demand a judicial warrant and wait to receive one with an actual judge’s signature, before you open the door to agents you don’t know.
