| ....I was a semi-pro musician for years..... See if your current garage band can do this one. You might have a reasonable facsimile of an Ashcroft in your group but I don't think any of you will be able to go full Nick McCabe wit' teh ghee-tar...... :mrgreen: https://www.youtube.com/wat... |

| Once again you're seeing the world by outlandish caricature. The median income for a SAG member is $47,000, and the average wage for a WGA member is $53,000. They're hardly rolling the dough, especially if they live in NYC or LA where people making twice that much are struggling to pay the bills. I... |

| Unions & associations full of rich people don't deserve anyone's support. And it's a stretch beyond all imagination to think for the second that entertainment industry writers & performers associations have even the slightest thing in common with the actual working class. The closest any of ... |

| Is J.K. Rowling transphobic? Let’s let her speak for herself. I did a search on JK as well. This was the 1st result. That was my first result as well. That's where I found out that her first transgression was "liking a tweet." I read the rest, and I understand why you can take umbrage wit... |

| Someone's doing good in this world if they can afford a minimum monthly of nearly $800 on a $60K car. And the truck boy in this province typically is using the mega-monster as a work vehicle and is thus able to use the payments as a business tax write off, so overall he ends up saving money as a res... |

| People in Alberta who drive Teslas are all rich. And judging by how they all drive it's a certainty they've done something to deserve getting keyed. The ones most likely to get their vehicle keyed are usually anyone with a Flames sticker on their ride if they dare to venture north of Red Deer. Just ... |

It gets the long-suffering stage crews and other background personnel who work on live shows, the lowly peons none of the big liberal hearts gave the slightest bit of a fucking damn about when they got laid off & lost their pay due to the strikes, back to work where they belong. ... |

| Well, with that kind of logic we might as well not bother building the new housing at all if all of us are just going to be dead anyway. And this insight, straight from the wettest of wet dreams of an ultimate nihilist, has been brought to you by the affluent children of Just Stop Oil. |

But the development and housing bosses, who are all certainly millionaires, are going to make nothing but massive skrilla hand over fist when the feds, any province run by Liberals or NDP, and pretty much every ci... |

With this kind of demented thinking now not just in vogue but approaching total dominance it is no longer credible to deny that our society is rapidly dying. And it deserves to die if the people who think this way have bee... |

| Woke - it once meant something when black people in the US used it, but then it later got turned into something meaningless when affluent white liberals hijacked it in order to wrongly apply it to anything that upset them, which means they applied it to pretty much everything. Not surprising at all ... |

| The darkness consumes all in due time. There's actually a lot less light out there now than there was in 2011. As the old quote from when World War One broke out is still apt, in a paraphrased form to reflect the modern moment - the lights are going out all across my civilization and I will not see ... |
