OTTAWA - Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly says Canada has been considering a “game plan” for how it would respond if the United States takes a far-right, authoritarian shift after next year’s presidential elections.
I like helping people laugh. The world sucks and if I can be part of the day being a little better then awesome.
With this sentiment, you’ve already made my day a little better. That’s something that I also try for myself and it’s nice to see others expressing a similar view.
Neat! What area of Toronto are you in? Toronto must be so grey and bland and depressing for somebody coming from the east coast. I was born here and have been here all my life, and quite frankly I am really starting to hate it.
Speaking of Star Trek, I re-watched TNG Relics last night and it bothers me so much that they didn’t really do much to investigate the origins of the Dyson Sphere. Quite possibly the most advanced piece of engineering in the galaxy ever (well, maybe excluding Iconian gates – they transport you to Toronto’s city hall, after all), and they’re just like “yeah, it’s uninhabited; anyway, Scotty’s sad”
The world does indeed suck, so if sending a couple of bucks your way makes your day better then please let me – no pressure though! I would’ve offered to meet up and buy you a beer or two, but I don’t get out much anymore, nor do I drink often these days, so e-transfer is the next best thing for me.
Nice! I am west end / Parkdale-adjacent. I’ve been renting for a long time in this place, and it’s an older building, so the property management probably hate me and my rent-controlled ass.
I did actually play STO briefly in the early 2010s, but don’t think I encountered any stories involving the Dyson Sphere. It’s cool that they picked up on it in a quasi-canonical way. I do wish TNG returned to the sphere in the series run, though. I’m surprised Berman didn’t tackle it in an episode of Enterprise, although they would’ve made that a season long arc, and it would have turned out the sphere builders were actually the descendants of Porthos (who became enlightened and sentient beings after all of the space-cheese Porthos ate) who travelled into the distant past to build the sphere. Or it would end up being a Barclay holodeck simulation, one or the other.
Hey, whether Ripley’s or Hanlans there’s usually a lot of stuff to look at 😂

Similar here. Have been lucky but have also been unemployed and couch surfing. Hope you’re doing well.
