Sure, but a magazine of 5 in a semi automatic is still a lot less shots than a magazine of 30 in a fully auto rifle. Modern military body armor has come a long way and being a neighbour, america has many naval and air bases already built and fully loaded within striking distance. A surprise strike could significantly cripple canadian military resources.

We've all been guilty of it. I only really knew the differences because of how many times I've watched Archer where they use the lyrics and song sometimes.

Highway implys a high speed trip to the danger zone whereas i went to the daner zone could be a much more leisurely pace. Most of the song is in the present tense of going to the danger zone whereas i went to the danger zone is past tense. The rest of the song is also riddled with engine, speed, and other driving influences which helps ground the highway lyrics into the theme of the rest of the song.

Many of Canada's firearms are outdated in a military sense and the government has been continuing to ban more guns. Many fire arms currently owned by canadians would have already been considered obsolete by the cold war, especially if we are comparing our stockpile to America's.

Which then spontaneously combusts killing Trump, but luckily just before that Trump passes an executive order naming Musk his successor.

I get this sometimes when sick. Its usally blood that came from my nose or nasal area from irritation, over blowing, or dryness. The blood gets stuck in the mucus and can come out when coughing.

Its the norm for conservative radio commercials. Constant bashing and oversimplification of the other party's plans while belittling anyone that supports it all without any mention of their own plan.

They don't need to be getting wider though. Many European models fit down tight streets with ease and carry all the same gear.

In some senses this is exactly what Trump wants. He would refuse to be respectful and get respect diplomatically so instead its a "respect me or else" stance, both in an economically and militarily threatening sense.

"We can't have dedicated emergency lanes, that would imply our neighborhood is unsafe"

There's a poor attitude towards transit because we don't have a lot of quality transit. Why give up your automotive freedom and ride with the poors??? If only more people realized how freeing good transit actually is

The only solution to traffic and gridlock is providing viable alternatives to driving. If you're gonna spend all the money on a tunnel, at least put a train in there. A double track would have a way higher throughput than even 10 lanes of underground traffic.

 

I've been having some minor issues with comments. Once a comment thread gets longer than 3 or 4 comments, accesing those deeper comment chains becomes very inconsistent/impossible. The "view more" button to see the rest of the comments will sometimes just disappear or do nothing when pressed. When accessing deep threads from my inbox or profile it will start at the top of the comment thread and fail to load/access the deeper comments, including the comment I used to navigate to that thread. Has anyone else had similar issues or found solutions?

 

The past couple updates whenever I'm browing "all" with sort set to "hot" the first few pages of scrolling is accurate but then it turns to posts that are 6months-2years old. This is only after 1-2 minutes of scrolling. Has anyone else had this issue?
