Everyone's seen the "super uncomfortable month" one. And, on the one hand, I firmly agree that hateful people should be made to feel bad about their behaviour. But on the other? It would really, really nice if they could all just fucking stop being hateful people.

Canada *desperately* needs an *actually* left-leaning party to keep the Liberals from moving even further to the right, so for @ndpcanada to lose their party status this evening is not only heartbreaking, but somewhat terrifying too.

I'd already made this assessment myself (& voted accordingly), but it's good to see it reflected in data too...
If it weren't for the 51st state bullshit, I'm certain there's a real chance the @ndp.ca could reclaim the Laurier--Sainte-Marie riding from the Libs.

Received an email trying to sell me a pre-ordered bottle of Tanqueray 0.0 for $44.99+tx... which is almost exactly 1.5 times the cost of a regular bottle of Tanqueray that contains alcohol.
