"The the fine is less than the profits, then its just the cost of doing business."

This is your reminder that Hawaiian Pizza was invented by a Greek immigrant in an Italian restaurant in Canada.

“It’s the entitlement that really gets me. The feeling that someone else’s life, their mistakes, their trauma, their STORY is just free for the taking because it was in the news,”

This. So. Much.

Entitlement is the perfect word for it. In all the sensationalism of modern news reporting, we are guilty of conflating news and entertainment. We forget that there are actual human beings at the center of these stories, people who deserve to be able to decide whether or not their stories get exploited to further enrich someone else.

I've been saying this for years. These were simple, efficiently built homes to account for a huge influx in housing needs. Why it took us this long to remember a solution that already worked is wild to me.

Sure, there is less space to build in on cities proper, but with how much we have progressed with WFH, it shouldnt be as much of an issue to build outside the core.

Yet, we're perfectly okay to call everything from Blue Oyster Cult to Fleetwood Mac to Nickleback "rock".

Boy, that Chef must have egg on his face.

The Museum of History in Canada has a cool solution to this regarding some of their indigenous artifacts.

They either come to an agreement with the people who the historical item belongs to for the museum to keep it, or they give it back with either a placard explaining why the item is no longer at the museum, or reproduction in its place with a sign explaining that its a repro.

There are two types of people in this world:
