So what you’re accusing me of is sleeping with my boss?

I think if it went in while it was alive we have to refer to it as suspended animation.

Maybe Espresso was just practicing for a space mission.

The problem of drugs and gangs would go away overnight if people simply realized the global effects of their “harmless recreational drugs” and stop doing them

Every time a child is killed in a gang shooting it’s the people getting stoned at parties that are to blame.Start taking responsibility

It’s not a lack of respect. It’s faith in human greed.

Guaranteed contracts simply because they are Canadian is not a way to ensure quality or effectiveness of tax payer money. Cut the US out of the process yes, but competition encourages quality and lower costs.

Growing up, wax peppers, also called Hungarian hot bananas, are a children’s snack. Cut one in half, sprinkle salt in it, and eat it.

I also hate those high in vinegar sauces.

The same with Hungarians, some regions have very spicy food. When I go to East Indian restaurants i ask for the extra spicy vindaloo. I have to specify “the East Indian extra spicy not the white person extra spicy.” They are very different things.

Almost all major US processed food companies were purchased by tobacco companies in the 80’s. That should tell you all you need to know.

In BC it is also illegal to give aid to a grey squirrel that you have injured, even accidentally. You must kill it.

Requirement to kill injured wildlife
4 If a person injures wildlife listed in Schedule B or C, the person must kill that wildlife.
[en. B.C. Reg. 253/2000, App. 2, s. 3.]

In BC they cause so much environmental damage that they have been classified as a schedule C species. Meaning they are classified as kill on site, you can legally destroy their nests and young as well as trap adults, at any time without a license.

Since trapping them i have seen a significant increase in song and hummingbird populations. As well as an increase in diversity.

Here at least, it is illegal to catch and release an invasive species. I live trap and then kill them so i can ensure the death is quick and painless.

No they don’t only eat eggs if hungry. Like nuts they will remove them from the nest for later consumption.

I also live in a rural area.They don’t eat all the birds but they significantly reduce the bird population and push native squirrels out of the area. They also kill trees especially in winter

They don’t eat adult birds. They eat eggs and hatchlings. Grey squirrels are opportunistic feeders and will not pass up a meal simply because feeders are stocked with seeds and nuts.
That habit also makes them extremely easy to trap. I put a single peanut in a trap and they can’t resist it.
February 16, 2026 at 3:59 PM
So you keep them fed
Their population increases further
They kill more birds

Or you could recognize that they are an invasive species and make every attempt to remove them from the environment they are destroying
February 16, 2026 at 1:12 AM
The good thing is once you control them in an area, especially during nesting season, the bird populations are able to recover. They also kill trees.

We have the invasive grey squirrels in BC. They don’t just eat nuts and seeds. They also eat baby birds and out compete native squirrels.

I started actively trapping and killing them on my property a couple of years ago. It was amazing to see the song bird and humming bird populations boom.

This is a good use of AI. It has presented an idea. Now everyone with a wood working shop wants to build it.

That goes for both sides. Extreme Democrats are equally full if hate. They have just chosen to hate different things.
