Everything we do is kinda shitty and bad. My shirt was bought from a mega corp that kills local economies, a sweat shop or child labour was probably involved at some point, the cotton in it might have been farmed using slave labour, I could go on, but we both know that the clothing industry is shitty all the way down. I can't go to work naked or grow my own cotton, so I try to be less-bad in other ways. I choose to eat in a way that’s less-bad for the environment, and doesn't directly profit from killing animals.

No, people like to pretend that using linux is hard for some reason.

It's not 2003 anymore.

I think that the points that DWS brings up are quite good.

If we ignore all of the "rights and freedoms" based arguments, "Why are we spending money to forcing people into treatment, when people who actually want to get into treatment can't, because of a lack of money?" is still quite damming of the program.

If someone wants to get clean, they are much more likely to actually stay clean than someone who was forced to. It's not a one-and-done process. If you don't have supports and tools set-up, relapse rates, even if you want to be clean, are quite high.

If the goal is to reduce the amount of drug users, putting the money to help people who want to be helped would go much further.

If a savory dish doesn't have msg, it's probably wrong.

They edited the title, and it's still not the original title for the article.

That transcript is for "Is Alberta headed towards a separation vote?". The transcript you want should be at the link below, but it looks like it's empty.

The position of the arms matches the position of the people in Loss.

Someone else already said it's popes, as for how it relates to the comic, it's the arms.

Frame 1 = 1 arm up
Frame 2 = 2 arms up, one higher than the other
Frame 3 = 2 arms up, the same height
Frame 4 = 1 vertical arm, one horizontal arm.
