Yeah, that's the one. The one that makes a modicum of sense

Either A) New Years Day is a day of the week and your birthday changes every year (but in a vastly more predictable way; NYD will make next year's dates one weekday ahead), or B) New Years Day is a completely separate day and all years are identical, and you choose your birthday to be celebrated on the closest agreeable weekend if that matters to you

There is a pretty fucking solid one:

13 months exactly 4 weeks long. 364 days. Two unique days: New Years Day and Leap Day. Just put them together.

Now every month is the same length. Every numbered day is the same day of the week in every month for the whole year.

What better way to advertise your clandestine movie than with clandestine marketing?

To be fair, Rogers didn't die. It monopolized data communication with insufficient regulation. It had an inevitable outage that could have been bypassed if not for the reasons listed.

Rogers continues to make stacks while the public foots the bill.

What Disney fails to understand is that Star Wars fits so many genres. It doesn't need to be space opera. That's what the trilogy was, but that's not the whole universe.

People really liked the western. People really liked the spy thriller.

I think people would really like the buddy cop movie. I think people would really like the samurai movie. I think people would really like the creature horror movie.

You know, except there's no motivation for retailers to lower prices no matter how cheap the the products become nor how low their taxes are.

Removing the carbon tax won't appreciably lower the price of anything for any amount of time. It won't make life easier for average Canadians because the average Canadian gets that money back. We'll have the same prices, the same unachievable cost of living, but with fewer social supports.

The free market has never once chosen morality over profit. Year after year we've proven we can suffer through it, so there is no motivation to change.

Okay, sure, so that defines that there was overall voter apathy. So Harris lost 85% of the voters who didn't bother showing up. That's even more damning.

The Liberals are admittedly a stale 3 day old cheap deli sandwich. People want something warm, fresh, and organic. Conservatives check all of those boxes.

Too bad it's horseshit.
