@hacks4pancakes I just read an article of the brain drain the USA is experiencing by following an OB/GYN who moved back to New Brunswick.

The second half of the article discussed how insanely difficult Canada makes immigration by people with needed skills unnecessarily difficult.

Aw, @selzero. That was my dream job!

@br00t4c @MaryAustinBooks They always backfire. Now that I’m aware of the book I would gift it to my nieces or any other child of age that needs a birthday gift.

@GreenSkyOverMe Yes.

My post was inspired by my aggravation with our ineffective, criminal President signing an executive order “freeing” me and a few 100M others from the tyranny of reusable, recyclable, or compostable straws.

STRAWS!

This is the bullshit headspace our dear leader is in. 🤯🙄

@GreenSkyOverMe Oh, you know.

We have low flush toilets and water saving shower heads in the USA, but we have plenty of water, so as our Administrative Executive believes, the water goes *drip* *drip* *drip* and Americans can no longer flush 💩 away or bathe properly.

🙄

I like my straws paper or 🤘🏻 metal 🤘🏻.

I like my lightbulbs LED.

I like my toilet and shower to go *drip* *drip* *drip*

I like my culture to include DEIA initiatives.

I like my LGBTQ+ friends to be safe.

I like us to be actually free within reasonable confines of social contract and law.

@gamingonlinux Aw, shucks.

@jmac @jwz @bitprophet I still wear this t-shirt.

Yowza!

@dansup I’m unsure I’ve been this excited about receiving an email.

@dansup I hope you see them then.

I closed the book on Oasis a long time ago. Great era. This reunion just does not seem natural to me.

@dansup Woof!

Stay safe, man.

@parkermolloy @selzero Opinion columns are just exercises in creative writing prompts in the newsroom anymore, aren’t they?

@ryanhoulihan Yes.

@dansup @loops May I join?

@dansup Still rocking my iPhone 12 Pro. I may even replace the battery when current battery’s life dips below 80%.

So I’ll be pre-ordering iPhone 18 Pro. 😜

@dansup My 2¢ on #Oppenheimer #IMAX 70mm:

Nice to have if you can get it, but not necessary to enjoy the film as the use of B&W vs color also has the same effect as a storytelling device as changes in aspect ratio.

It was cool to have some scenes fill the screen, but I am unsure if it would detract from enjoyment with a single aspect ratio.

@dansup Will do. I’ve been off of TV and film for a while, so I need to probably book my seats as motivation to go otherwise I’ll forget! 🤣

@dansup My daughter and a friend are doing the same.

I may open my wallet for the 70mm Oppenheimer experience.

@dansup @pixelfed YISS!

I guess I’ll just start over.
