nubbins`: that'd be like impersonating a child killer,
there's nothing
to gain
nubbins`: so, y'know,
the sort of person you'd
take legal advice from
mircea_popescu: i wonder when
the first arrest for impersonating a mp will happen.

took advice, coincidentally, grew up about 4 houses down
the road from me

terror of which i can't imagine

to recant her claims of being not under

those "freemen on
the land" cases here

there naked regularly ?
firedrops: this is
too much. whale hydrotherapy
mircea_popescu: making it so
that
there's five 4 person pillories installed in front of
the house
nubbins`: so
their options are pay up or ignore
nubbins`: but
the government can't just go
to
the media and speak about
the specifics of
the case, because health care info
nubbins`: see, it's indefensible.
they can wheel a stretcher into
the house of assembly and scream and shout and call for resignations
mircea_popescu: so
this is a whale
that considers it's
the pm's problem whether she gets
the sort of enema she likes ?
mircea_popescu: The family also wants Eastern Health CEO Vickie Kaminski
to resign for having made public comments
to an open-line radio show about Coombs's case, particularly a suggestion
that
the woman's size is a reason why hydrotherapy is not available
to her.
nubbins`: here's
the 19 year old almost-mayor with his family:
nubbins`: mircea_popescu: it was a large blue recycling bin. no word on
the fairness
thereof
nubbins`: now,
this is glossing over
the fact
that
the INCUMBENT MAYOR received
the same # of votes as a 19 year old child
mircea_popescu: you can never get
the same ballot count again no matter what
mjoiii__: Is
there really
that much variance in
the counting itself?
nubbins`: mjoiii__: depends on how badly
they fucked
the count
nubbins`: 19 year old was sore, and demanded
that another name-from-a-hat draw
take place
mjoiii__: How does a recount change
the outcome?
nubbins`: i
think
they recounted a couple of
times
nubbins`: incumbent mayor
ties with 19-year-old kid for number of votes
firedrops: he had
to 'legitimize' his new power :)
mircea_popescu: but
they went
to
the
trouble of actually falsifying
the ballots
nubbins`: oh, speaking of
town elections
mircea_popescu: then
the next day
they'd report
the 9x% whatever commie party result
mircea_popescu: firedrops back in
the communist days,
the
town fool in my
town regularly won
the election.
firedrops: mickey mouse gets around 10k write in votes per presidential election... proof postive
this place is fucked.
nubbins`: and an actor as
the queen's representative!
nubbins`: scumbag journalists in
the senate
nubbins`: like
there was a campaign and everything?
mircea_popescu: so
the us president is also in
the street dancing for nickles.
mircea_popescu: ya i kno. ideally
they all go bankrupt at
the same
time,
nubbins`: bankrupt enough
that britain gave us away
to canada ;p

to buy any food
this week, at all" bankrupt.

the canadian governor general is in
the street dancing for pennies you know rebuilding can start.

the 1930s

this crap other
than complete bankruptcy for any and all public institutions.
nubbins`: industry has deadlines, government has
timelines ;)
mircea_popescu: "Environment Minister
Tom Hedderson said
the province must still do assessments for any necessary cleanups, but Hedderson would not be drawn into a discussion on
timelines."
nubbins`: after having conveniently purchased a massive city-sized piece of land from
the province
nubbins`: altho
the premier at
the
time all
that was happening is now back in
the private sector
