Also even if he does succeed, he’ll probably never outlive the “Parachute Pierre” nickname for the rest of his career.

There is another potential problem for Poilievre. Critchley is right. Parachute candidates always face a potential backlash when they drop into ridings because they have lost their own seats. That’s because there is something fundamentally opportunistic and unfair about replacing a successful local candidate with an unsuccessful national one. Does Poilievre care about the riding or, as Critchley believes, is he just using it as the safest way to become an MP before Parliament is recalled?

This is a great point I’m surprised hasn’t been talked about more. Pierre is running on a party-over-country campaign.

It’s not enough that Pierre runs in the safest byelection in the country, the runway has to be bubble wrapped as well.

I think you’re confusing “new” with “original”. I think we can agree that new episodes = new anime.

[…] please delete all of your participation in the subreddit in question (regardless of if it is positive or negative) […]

So it’s guilt by association.

I was genuinely shocked how the episode ended. RIP Ed

Yes, yes, very clever to name the site of a genocide “G[horman Pl]aza,” and have a character specifically emphasize the word “genocide” in a Senate chamber […]

🤯 Holy shit that’s brilliant!

This one seems different in that the barrier for entry is pretty high, plus the actual finished mod is not intended to be played very heavily.

Same! I liked that we got to see their backstory fleshed out some more. Regarding the hobbits:

I haven’t read the books, so I don’t know just how much is left on the table, but season 3 feels like it may be a good place for the series to end given what’s been covered already.

Per their project page in 2024 they were taking orders to create the shells. Maybe there’s a loophole that exists where the housing is exempt because the internals are DIY.

In any case, money was involved.

I just can’t believe that the retro community has not latched onto some trademark moniker at this point to avoid any kind of legal trouble. Tendo? NTDO? I dunno, anything! lol

Printing “Nintendo” on the device has got to be a bad idea, right?

The Rings of Power, Season 2.

I’m all caught up, and honestly I liked it. There was a hell of a lot to cram into 8 episodes, but I thought it was still fun. At the very least it’s a very beautiful show.

Taurozzi had pet insurance, but it didn’t cover Coal’s full medical bills. He said Coal’s medical care cost more than $30,000.

He raised more than $15,000 through a Go Fund Me campaign, which helped extend Coal’s life and gave him the best medical care available.

I was devastated when I decided I couldn’t afford $900 in vet bills for my cats, but this is insane.

I love it. It’s very dynamic!

At the very least it’ll help with your spelling and grammar.

I’m kind of all socialed out at this point—even being on Lemmy is a bit much some days, but if Gander can get its own version of Facebook’s Marketplace I’d be willing to have a gander myself.

EDIT: Hol up, it’s built on AT Protocol. I’m not sure if a marketplace would be possible the way it works now. *sad goose noise*

Step 1: AI is not your friend

That’s unreal. The timelapse of the move is worth the click.

ETA: the Samsung car moving robots are kind of amazing. Goodbye valet jobs!

Hmmm now my animation studio guess for that new office doesn’t seem that far off!
