It’s so close to reality that I’ll forgive it :P

The internet has told me you don’t enjoy changing sponges then.

Listen, I’m super smart and I definitely know what the right context is, but could you explain it for our dumber friends here?

Lemme ruin ‘testicles’ for ya too.

So 30% of people can’t afford their own house and that doesn’t seem like inequality to you?

Here’s the wiki page on global income equality, to address your claim that Europe is worse than the US:

I mostly avoid red meat for (non-vegan reasons) but I admit the article gave me pause. Luckily it also clarifies:

There is a growing body of evidence about the detrimental health effects of consuming too much red meat and dairy, so this study shouldn’t be taken as an excuse to eat more cheeseburgers and pizza; rather, it indicates that nutrient supplements such as TVA could be used to promote T cell activity.

Basically just take supplement and keep avoiding the meat :P

I’ve always supported this approach too but I have to wonder… is there a point where it gets taxed so high that people will just go back to the black market? What would prevent anyone from going black (heh) if it’s cheaper than the legal option?

I don’t think it’s begging when people already want to give it out for free.

Ben câlisse, comment ma apporter mon épicerie à maison sans un char d’assault?

Also how can he have done this 10 times but gotten laid 8.5 times?

Meat is pretty much the most expensive protein source. You can get tofu for like 1/5 the price of meat. The other guy summed it up well (although with some sarcasm) that eating vegan is only expensive when you try to replicate the meat. Just eat tofu and you’ll be healthier and richer :)

Excellent progress! Now we can conscionably stop tipping in Chicago too :)

“Didn’t we just defeat you 12 years ago?”

If they’re gonna be forced to be part of the UK, they can also enjoy the privilege of shitting on it like the rest do.

Usually this bot is great but this is a pretty big one to miss:

And the same week NASA’s report came out, Mexican lawmakers were shown by journalist Jaime Maussan two tiny, 1,000-year-old bodies that he claimed were the remains of “non-human” beings. Scientists have called this claim fraudulent and say the mummies may have been looted from gravesites in Peru.

You’re completely missing the point of an analogy. No one is comparing humans to animals. What’s similar is the thought process behind arriving at both conclusions. We could be talking about humans, animals, cars… the subject doesn’t matter, it’s the thought process that’s the same.

Not to say I agree with him but he didn’t compare those two things at all. He said it’s the same mentality that underlies racism and ‘breedism’ for lack of a better word.

Kind of a ‘lipstick on a pig’ situation there haha

Healthcare is provincially regulated here, but coverage in other countries is usually only at the rate that they would cover up here. Because of the huge discrepancies in pricing, most provinces recommend you buy travel insurance when going anywhere else.

In Ontario for example:

"Doctor services

OHIP will pay whichever of the following is less:

• the actual amount billed by doctor(s) who treated you outside Canada
• rates listed in and paid to Ontario physicians in the Ontario Schedule of Benefits for Physicians Services

Emergency outpatient services

OHIP will pay whichever of the following is less:

• up to $50 (Canadian) per day
• the amount billed by the hospital

Emergency inpatient services

OHIP will pay up to:

$400 (Canadian) per day for services provided in:

• an operating room
• a coronary care unit
• an intensive care unit
• a neonatal or pediatric special care unit

$200 (Canadian) per day for lower levels of care"

Yeah but there aren’t laws making bigotry mandatory up there.
