It's a 1966 Ferrari Formula 1 car, Michael. How much can it cost - $100,000?

This one is yet another job for Eagle Tactical, @GayDeceiver

So there's a very small set of people who can flip this and drink slightly earlier than they should (eg Feb 9 rather than Sept 2), but being non-American, they probably have sane alcohol regulations at home and by the time they're 21 the whole thing is more tiresome than anything.

Once, at a bar in a very small town in rural Kansas, I was asked for ID. I only had my passport. When I showed it to the bartender, she asked "do you have anything government-issued?"

@MAKS23 can we get one of these along the 49th parallel?

@bright_helpings @alexhaist my takeaway is that crabs are less likely than humans to be fooled by machines that mimic species-specific characteristics.

"self reliance central" has my partisanship alarm bells going off

@jeffowski I get it, but to sum up Christianity I think you gotta have at least SOMETHING from the New Testament 🤷♂️

@steter

You didn't even mention the Gatorade being dumped over the coach's head. Are you a bot?

@selzero Madison, Jefferson, Paine : all of them woke Communist beta cucks

@aral you are completely free to say anything they already agree with

@faoluin @artemis I assumed he was specifically referring to her

@sand just watch out for loons on the 401 (even more than usual, I mean)!

@evan if you sincerely believe the Canadian Forces can go toe to toe against the US military, I completely understand your reasoning.
From the numbers, and from what I have seen of the US military up close, we are going to have very different opinions on that.

I am glad we are at least having frank discussions about this. I hope DND is as well.

For clarity, my family came to Canada as refugees when New York was evacuated in 1783. I have personally lived in the States. I will not do so again

@evan no, I am not saying that.
I'm specifically saying the invasion piece is not a good idea, in my opinion. Many other aspects of your plan are sound goals, and I sincerely hope we can avoid the worst. I agree we need to maximize friction.

I'm taking a Scouting approach: Be Prepared. We need civil defence organization and emergency preparedness efforts so we can support each other. We should be massively expanding something like the Reserves, maybe even a Swiss approach.

I'm preparing.

@evan At present, if there's a full scale invasion, no such thing is possible. This is the most powerful military in all human history we are talking about.

To be clear, yes, a troublesome insurgency that adds to the domestic American polycrisis such that continuing is impossible is likely our only hope. But we should not be unrealistic. Vietnam went on for ages.

And moving millions of people hundreds of kilometres is simply not feasible and would pretty much immediately end our economy.
