  Illegal for you, I guess. I can wear a mask outside. Good luck down there in the US, guys.

  Maybe we should bring back covid masks as a privacy/fashion statement now?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨When “Ordinary People” on TikTok Turn Out to Be Professional Actors⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I tell my kids that nobody is their authentic self on camera. Everyone is acting to some degree. They watch YouTube sometimes and we’ll talk about what the purpose of the video was. Was this person trying to sell you something? Teach you something? Make you believe something? Right now we only have YouTube accessible on the living room TV so that I always know what they’re watching, but I won’t be able to control that forever so I am making sure they learn to think critically about what they’re watching. I started when they were toddlers by making a big show of not liking ads.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK that hand sewing is a stupid cheap hobby to get into and reduces your impact on the environment⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I was taught how to hand sew in school for an art project and it has been so useful. As a teenager I was intentionally getting damaged clothes at the thrift store for extra cheap and sewing them back up myself.

  I choose to believe that they’re completely uninformed and uneducated because that’s better than the alternative.

  On the one hand, lol. I hate massive pickup trucks so much and anything annoying the people who buy them brings me joy. On the other hand, this isn’t going to stop there…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Even households earning $150,000 a year are struggling with credit card and car payments⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I really don’t understand how you can earn $150,000 a year and can’t make ends meet without making some really irresponsible decisions, though. My family of four is living off $40,000 (CAD) and all our bills are paid.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨“Donated” plasma today⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s wild this is a paid thing in the US. As far as I know, in Canada, you can only donate for free. Blood, plasma, sperm, doesn’t matter. Can’t be paid for surrogacy either.

  Using facial id software on people while wearing a fucking mask. What happened, guys?! I thought you couldn’t breathe under there!

  FARMING IS SKILLED LABOUR. YOU CANNOT JUST REPLACE THOSE DEPORTED FARM WORKERS WITH JUST RANDOM PEOPLE.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Moms in the U.S. report large decline in mental health in recent years, study finds⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m Canadian, so not American, but for me it’s because I don’t have the same grandparent support my parents had. We had to move far away to be able to afford a place to live and now we have no help. My siblings and I practically lived at our grandparents’ houses, and so did all of our cousins. I hear a lot about how uninvolved grandparents are lately, whether by choice or by practicality (the distance, for us).

  We still have plenty of eggs in Canada. Is this why Trump is threatening us

  I don’t really agree, but it will piss off “alpha” guys if this catches on sooooo
