How does one "crush your entire existence" exactly?

He's claiming that people comparing Trump to Hitler/Mussolini are freaking out over nothing (being snowflakes) and that if Trump becomes President again they will freak out harder (their existence crushed).

Again not a good quote, dude is obviously a turd, but this isn't a call for extermination.

those who try to make that ridiculous assertion are clearly snowflakes grasping for anything because they are suffering from Trump Derangement Syndrome and their entire existence will be crushed when President Trump returns to the White House.

The full (actual) quote from Trump spokes person. It's not a good quote, but there isn't any talk of extermination. Pretty shit "journalism".

I stumbled onto some video where she talks about her time at one of those disciplinary teen camps and it's pretty fucked up. Seems like her mom is also insane, so I'm sure it hasn't been the smoothest life for her.

If helping others is also profitable then that's literally the best (realistic) scenario for society.

That ending scene was depressing as fuck.

"It's the systems of oppression that let Trump regain the presidency!!!!!!" -one of those non-voting doofuses, probably.

Reminds me of Netflix marvel shows, lot more gritty and less "disney'd" than other series. Might actually be good.

Should have properly punished the kid and his parents for his first car jacking, maybe this one wouldn't have happened.

Pretty sure that's just Naruto vs Kiba. Anyway, here's another video of a wolf and it's prey: https://x.com/twolvesbrazil/status/1718452807475355992?s=20

Good, the scummy non/low tippers can deal with cold food or canceled orders.

I don't follow boxing, but it seems like it's just youtubers fighting MMA guys now a days. I could be totally wrong, but it seems like the mainstream popularity of boxing has pretty much fizzled out.

Adam Johnson had his throat cut by Matt Petgrave during a hockey game in the UK. I won't link the video for obvious reasons, but some people are saying it looked like Matt kicked at Adam intentionally. Some people are saying it was an accident, but still manslaughter. And some are saying it was just a freak accident. Any thoughts?

Would be silly not to ask. Always advocate for yourself.

If the goal is to inconvenience people, and people are complaining about the protest, then aren't the people complaining doing exactly what the protest movement wanted?

There is a difference between pictures of women in their underwear and users asking for sex toy advice.

You're allowed to ask for things to jerk it to, but not things to jerk it with.

On the one hand causing disruptions spreads your message and makes the issue more well known, but on the other I wonder how many people stuck in traffic are dialing up their elected representatives to support the protest's cause

I'm sorry I made an observation about your favorite band from middle school. I don't disagree with the message of the song, I just think it's funny listening to someone who lived in this https://loudwire.com/green-day-billie-joe-armstrong-7-million-dollar-house-photos/ to talk about the perils of capitalism and land ownership.

People who the American Dream/Capitalism absolutely worked out for: "The American Dream is killing me"

From what I understand her parents didn't treat her like a cash cow unlike the other 2.

I mean I guess if one of the GOP representatives doesn't want to win their reelection then yeah they might do that, but I don't see it happening. It'd be cool though, and if I'm wrong I'll be happy to be wrong.

People already twisting the narrative in attempt to attack me. The example in the OP is an example. It doesnt matter if it was trans rights, abortion law, womens rights, global warming, pollution etc.

Its like im feeling down from thinking about all the victims in the wars. I want to escape the world and boot up a game to relax. Then bam, ukrainian flag in my face and i feel sad again.

We had it all wrong guys, he cares TOO much.

Unless someone has an irremediable condition (late stage cancer, for example), the process is not immediate. If someone wants to use MAID, they need two different doctors to agree with this course of action with backing medical documentation, and they must wait 90 days before they can use the service. Also, doctors in the meantime are expected to get patients connected with resources that their patient has maybe not accessed.

So the idea is not, "Oh you wanna die? Cool, right this way". There are a lot of checks and balances.

I know, I followed your posts a few months back. What you and your wife went through seemed like way too much red tape (if I remember correctly you had to see like 5 different doctors looking for approval?). I was responding to this:

there should be euthanization clinics that don't screen you for access to it in every country

Seems very misleading. This begins to address the financial concerns of some people experiencing homelessness, but does nothing to address mental health causes of homelessness.

Their ultimate goal for this administration is obstruction, so in that sense they're at the height of their power.

one of the more fucked up things we do as humans to other humans is uphold the idea that everyone should want to live and that if someone doesn't agree, they have to go through a bunch of shit or even be committed to a facility where their suicidal tendencies are "fixed"

giving people a safe way out of life should be a basic right

So as a society, if people want to end their lives, we should tell them to just go for it without any hassle? Idk about all of that.

As someone who went through the MAID process for a partner who had mental health as part of their "case" so to speak, I feel like I have to say something to those who fear that an expansion of this service will lead to "eugenics" or something like that.

We boast in Canada about "Universal Health Care" but we don't fund it in that way. Don't get me wrong, in comparison to our neighbors to the south we have it really good, but how can we claim "universal health" yet most people still need to pay for their own dental coverage, mental health support, eye doctors.

What expanding MAID to allow for mental health and addictions is to look at someone as a whole. Lindsay was told by some professionals that her "depression and anxiety" meant that she did not qualify for MAID. ... in what world does someone who has intense medical problems not struggle with depression and anxiety? And how does the presence of these things supersede the horrible consequences of her physical health diagnoses?

That element of the total health of a person should not discount them from MAID, which is what is happening to people who want to end their suffering but cannot given the current construction of the laws. What changing this law will do is to allow for medical professionals to have the right to look at the entire health of a person, their lived experience and EVERYTHING that comes with it, in order for the medical expert and the person suffering to come to a conclusion together.

Never will the expansion of this law mean that the government has an "out" to creating more solutions to homelessness, addictions, mental health. No. What it does is allow a person who is suffering a proper opportunity to take control of how their life ends... instead of suffering to what the final result would be. Make no mistake about it, Lindsay was dying from her medical diagnoses, depression and anxiety or not.

To me, opponents to this law simply are afraid that some people will choose to end their lives on their own terms. That fear is real; I experienced it first hand throughout the year Lindsay and I took that journey together. The only fear Lindsay had was being told no, that she didn't have the right to stop suffering.

When Lindsay and I chatted with our second assessor (technically the fifth assessor we spoke to all together) and were given a yes, I wept. I knew what that meant. Lindsay cheered, because she knew what that meant. She finally could take control of a life that went entirely out of her control for years and put an end to the suffering and deterioration. She wouldn't have to die in a hospital gasping for air or any other terrible fate. Instead she could fall asleep peacefully not not have to wake up.

Opponents of MAID and expanding it... I understand the fear. I lived it. The fear we have of our loved ones passing away does NOT permit us to deny our loved ones the right to self-determination.

I was interested in your thoughts on this, but I didn't want to ping you and reopen relatively fresh wounds (but thank you for contributing, and continuing to be open about your experience). The issue I had, and I'm not even 100% on my position, is this part "will be expanded next March to give access to people whose sole medical condition is mental illness, which can include substance use disorders."

In your wife's case it makes total sense, she had mental health struggles but that was coupled with a host of other medical issues. In cases like that I don't see why mental health/drug abuse would influence MAID. It's the sole medical part that seems kind of iffy to me, but again I'm no expert and I can empathize with people who wish to expand MAID.

https://www.vice.com/en/article/4a3bdm/canada-will-legalize-medically-assisted-dying-for-people-addicted-to-drugs

Looks like it's set to happen, but there is still committee meetings and what not challenging it. I'm all for MAID for those who need it, but idk if drug addicts quite fall into that category. Thoughts?

Just reread my topic title and it's a bit confusing, it's not requiring MAID for drug addicts, but rather an option for them.

40 beheaded babies, hospital bombings, and I'm sure there will be another talking point a few days from now. People are rushing to conclusions and then dying on these hills for no reason. It's ok to wait a few days for more info to come out, you don't have to have a stance immediately.

Indeed. I love how a CNN article was posted confirming it and they're still in denial:

The CNN article says the same thing the fox article said, that IDF is the only source of this info.

It's just such an odd f***ing battle line to draw, in any case. "Yes, we know for sure that Hamas kidnapped and murdered women, children, and the elderly. But I don't think Hamas would kill those children by beheading, that's just not like them...."

What people think or don't think happened doesn't matter, the facts matter, and as of this moment there is no confirmation that the story is true.

As wide as the ocean, and as deep as a puddle. I can see it being my favorite bethesda game after a few DLCs and a ton of mods.

Homeschooling was banned by Adolf Hitler, and Hermann Gring in 1938, in Germany:

I certainly don't wish to emulate either of those people, nor do I want my country to emulate Nazi Germany in any shape or form, but hey that's me.

Goofy logic here, Goring opposed animal cruelty too, should we be pro animal cruelty just to be polar opposites from the Nazis?
