Got a call offering a phone "upgrade" and firmly declined. Politely told guy at the call center to take care, and instead of saying goodbye he said "love you" and hung up. 🤣

Who understands rice cookers?

I wonder how many of the people objecting on free speech grounds to a 50 metre bubble zone that will protect abortion providers and seekers in Nova Scotia are ALSO mad about section 176 of Canada's criminal code?
