Report: At this point we are just trying to figure who Canadian Parliament WON'T give a standing ovation to
OTTAWA - After members of the Canadian Parliament earlier today gave a standing ovation to recently deceased far-right agitator who touted white supremacist theories, Charlie Kirk, we here at The Beaverton are stuck trying to figure out if there’s literally anyone our elected officials won’t celebrate.

Instead of progress bars or beach balls or spirals to let you know when they were working, '80s computers had massive disk drives that sounded like they were grinding the information into the surface every time you asked them for something.

My TRS-80 CoCo Canyon Drop game where you descend an ever narrowing canyon before being crushed between the two walls is a kind of metaphor for the times I suppose. But this kind of nostalgia seems harmless unlike the kind that strips human rights and degrades civil society.

Yo, something important: abusers will defend another abusers' actions, even if they don't know them personally.
I could write a LOT on this, but it's worth noting that alone. If people don't have the reaction that you expect when you need support, then they likely aren't your people.
