Im not sure if I am intruping this right. But it seems we've given judges the ability to hide from public scrutiny. Depending on people to just be ethical and not abuse this kind of power would be incredibly naive of us.

I can smell this image and it isn't plesent.

I'm not sure is its changed much over the years but I remember the one in Kitchener. The furniture is too big and expensive.

One lesson I learned quickly when I moved to Toronto is that you need small furniture. Living spaces are just too damn small. I had a great Queen sized bed that was only 3 years old. It ended up in a dumpster. Some of these furniture places like bad boy and sleep country seem to be catering to people living in full houses.

The reality, for me at least, is that despite a high income I am living in a 8'x10' room that need to also be my office. Also I need to move frequently as rent controll is gone. places here have weird layouts so sonthing that fit nicely in your last place may not longer fit in the next place. If I can somthing that suites my needs and is a few inches smaller, I'll probably take that over other options. Even if cheaper it may last longer. Multifunctional, or collapsible is also a huge selling point for me.

Places like Ikea and Muji are the only places selling furniture I can fit. Though I really belive there can be even better options if somone is willing to make space efficient furniture that's also good quality. We see is stuff online all the time. Murphy beds that are also an office space when folded? Awesome! No one sells it here.

We can have these without the commercialism can't we? Homemade decorations and costumes have more value and the act of making them with your family provides the time to talk about what these traditions are about.

Ah that makes sense. I was just reading about that same kind of issue affecting commercial pilots. Both jobs have extreamly high training/education cost then leave students in low paying jobs for a long stretch of their early careers. Both jobs also have foreign countries paying way better then what we are offering. (The documentary was about the US but I assume we are not better off)

Oh I never heard that one before. Well I learned a new thing then.

"Tiny rump faction of extremist" is an amazing typo

That's a very bizzare question. But, as mentioned on the community. I was a fan of it back in the day, appreciating it's innovative approach to interactive multimedia at a time I was studying that very subject. I think there is still a lot we can learn from it mistakes and all.

Also there's a lot of younger folks still involved with the community, by giving them a place on Lemmy to share, and reminisce I feel will benfit lemmy as a whole.

Probably a dumb question.

But if a site is using comicpress will it now be possible to see updates of that site via Lemmy?

I am on a beach, in a old lawn chair. the sand is grey. the sky is a deep dark blue. The sun has not risen. It is cold but not freezing. There is no wind.

I am aware of the long dead remains of the other beach goers around me. But I choose not to acknowledge them. I know peace in this moment.

I close my eyes as the sun begins to rise. Though does nothing against the blinding light. I do not see my final moment. I see nothing.

... either that or I dream of eating a big pizza.

No Ls also nothing in my sent box and it was marked as spam so rhe mail service knew somthing was up with it.

Thank you
