So glad I never got involved in that shitshow.

$4 million is enough to make it look like a lot money to the average person but not enough to actually do much at all. Even the most minor of domestic infrastructure projects would easily cost more than this; $4 million in today's economy is nothing, unfortunately.

Israel probably spends this amount per hour. Per minute during an active attack.

Chrome users will do literally anything except pick an alternative browser.

They're a private company and thus have resisted many of the enshittification trends that run rampant through the industry.

And also their competitors are absolutely atrocious and are completely tone-deaf to what customers actually want.

Canadians hatred of Trump is burning hot right now. We vividly remember all of the threats Trump made of invading Canada.

and here PP is celebrating Trump invading another country. This man couldn't be more tone-deaf if he tried.

Microsoft has gone all-in on AI to the detriment of basically every other aspect of their business. They are in deep deep shit when the bubble finally pops.

Social media and news is overwhelmingly controlled or otherwise influenced/flooded by the right or those acting on their behalf.

Food imported into Canada still has to pass our regulations and inspections. We don't let it slide just because the US government does.

There are. It's just the US is a large car-centric country which makes travel difficult and the ruling party controls almost all of the media and thus there is a media blackout on protests.

Trudeau will be remembered for many things

including all the conservatives that wanted to fuck him.

The words of a weak, pathetic man.

In the short term: Yes. Unless the US military decides to remove a sitting president but that is extremely unlikely.

In the long term: Yes, but also no. Fascism is extremely inefficient and expensive and the US is destroying its own economy and pushing away all of its allies and former trade partners. Things will get very rough but it will not last forever. There will be a lot of rebuilding that needs to be done.

Unfortunately this has been a long time coming. The United States has never really been united and it was only a matter of time before another possible civil war loomed on the horizon.
