Bought up and prison labour to take over. Anything else would be very surprising

The removals are a product of the longstanding Safe Third Country Agreement, which requires anyone seeking refugee protection in Canada or the U.S. to claim asylum in the first of the two countries they reach.

I understand why they've had that agreement. However, it should've been obvious for some time now that maybe that's an agreement they should bin? It's blatantly obvious the us don't treat refugees/asylum seekers the way they deserve at the moment

You're wrong btw

It's a school bus test. Children are easily distracted and may run across the street. Doesn't mean that they deserve to die so Musk can sell poorly regulated cars

Ooh, this seems to be right up my alley. Will give the album a listen

Thanks for the link and history lesson

So they asked beforehand if there was space for them, and they were told it was not. They were told by the police to exit the highway, and they did not.

Unless there's more to the story than what the article says, this is some seriously entitled behaviour

Yes we should have some sort of censorship. The vast, vast majority of people understand and see the bullshit these people are peddling. But some don't, and that ends up hurting innocent people. Why the fuck would you argue we should facilitate behaviour like this? https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/online-groups-pressuring-youth-self-harm-1.7107885

It's the betrayal. The US were supposed to be our allies, our friends. And now a large part of their population have shown their true colours. They will burn all the bridges they've built over decades at the whims of a fascist moron.

If this is what the US are now, this fascist, law neglecting state. Then I'm not sure they are a lesser evil. I'm struggling to see how the current regime is any better than the CCP. And that's saying a lot.

It sucks that we have to deal with one fully authoritarian state and one wannabe as the two major states

Such a good band. I especially like how their albums are quite different, but still, not. Gonna be listening to some Isis today as well

Everything else aside. Asparagus are delicious

 

Anyone got suggestions for a good pair of headphones to use in the gym and/or for running? Cannot stand earbuds, have tried several, including very expensive ones and they just don't do it for me.

 
 

I keep getting this image when trying to open a link from dubz.co through football. Anyone got any tips on how to force it to open through Firefox instead?
