don't discourage people from owning personal cars. most of the time this mentality is just a tax on the poor.

Flip the idea. Encourage people to not use cars instead.

• not just bike lanes, but bike storage & lockers
• not just public transport, but better connections between transport modes (buses with bike carriers, train stations with better car parking and bike lockers and bus connections)
• more small car parking bays with all large truck bays further away from the stores
• more motorcycle parking bays
• cheaper motorcycle registration, etc.

it's all about spending money and effort in the areas you want it. Not about being restrictive.

it's a slower method of conversion, but more effective.

Canada has a lot of issues at this moment, stemming in part from increased immigration in the last 3 years (causing housing issues, etc). This sort of event, "brown people beating up white women" could be a dangerous racial catalyst.

I hope this gets dealt with as a single incident, but given current affairs, I am not optimistic.

more to the point: fuck the McDonnell Douglas Corporation. Oh, fuck them both, sure, but Boeing died a long time ago. It's just McDD wearing Boeing like a horrific skin suit.

OP has discovered Tapirs exist.

Was that the sound of Putin unzipping?

I am appalled that people continue to not make headline (heh) puns about hairstyle issues at Barber Hill High School.

If only we could breed out that stupidity, like an inverse Idiocracy. Still, props to those American women with standards.

Truncated, not cropped.

Cropped is for images.

"The blood of the covenant is thicker than the water of the womb."

The saying (basically) means "the bond with the friends you make is stronger than happenstance family".

Remember, don't be bullied by family members who use "family" as their excuse to get you to do what they want without consideration of your own thoughts or feelings.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Remember, "active users", not "total accounts", so they're probably Russian bots.

OP doesn't know what the word "jargon" means.
