Based on the report, the average asking rent for a one-bedroom unit in Canada was $1,923 in October, down 0.8 per cent from a year ago. The average asking price for a two-bedroom unit was $2,308, down 0.2 per cent.

Oh, be still my beating heart. 0.2%. Remind me how much it has increased since 2019?

The report says asking rents in Canada have increased overall by a total of 21 per cent, or an average of $384 per month, from two years ago, just before the start of interest rate hikes by the Bank of Canada.

The cope among thr Democrats post election has been embarassing. 0 reflection as to why they lost (just like in 2016), blaming every possible external factor imaginable instead of thinking "hey, maybe we sucked and need to actualy be people that people want to elect" instead of relying on the "ooooh this guy is bed, better vote for us to keep him out" strategy.

They have fucked up in a major way, in what should have been a slam-dunk election, by ignoring what people actually want and trying to be Great Value Republicans when the right has Coca-Cola Fascism readily available to them.

I hope adherence to the corporate staus quo was worth it, you absolute fucking buffoons.

If someone is undecided at this point, they're either disingenuous and embarrassed about their support for Trump, or they're a moron.

Agreed. Thats why I like the reverse sear method of:

  • Salting the steaks
  • Rest them on a wire rack (preferablt in the fridge overnight, but at least an hour)
  • Cook it in the oven at a low temp until the thickest part is at ~120°F
  • Sear in a high heat cast iron pan a minute or two per side until you like the crust.

The nice think about baking it vs sous-vide is that the oven dries out the surface for a reallt nice crust. You also dont need to buy a sous-vide setup and can use things you already have.

The only downside to this method is that you dont get anything in the pan for a pan sauce (if thats what you're into).

I used to work for a company that had the right idea. We brought our work trucks home, and our work day started when we turned the key, and ended when we got home.

Had to be at a job for 8 and it was an hour away? You were paid for that. Only had a job 5 minutes away? Enjoy the extra sleep in time and the short commute home.

Now, this is way different than an office job that is stationary, but there is definitely a conversation to be had about it. If nothing else, it may have more companies going back to taking WFH seriously again instead of needlesslt forcing people back into office spaces in order to prop up the commercial real estate sector.

Remember when we used to never hear about school board meetings because they were dry, boring school board meetings?

Yeah, I want to go back to that.

He was right.

The years start coming, and they simply do not stop coming.

Back in 2016, two trades happened that seemed like seismic events in the NHL that... never really impacted any of the teams involved in the way that they thought it would:

  • PK Subban is traded from the Montreal Canadiens to the Nashville Predators in exchange for Shea Weber
  • Taylor Hall is traded from the Edmonton Oilers to the New Jersey Devils in exchange for Adam Larsson

At the time, these felt like franchise defining moves that would have immediate impacts, but ultimately didn't really move the needle in any significant way.

  • Taylor Hall wont a Hart and helped the Devils get to the playoffs for the first time in six years, but then missed the playoffs for the next two and was traded to Arizona in 2019 for Kevin Bahl, Nick Merkley, Nate Schnarr, and the pick that NJ used to get Dawson Mercer
  • Adam Larsson did help the Oilers on defense, but ultimately never got farther than the 2nd round with Edmonton. He was taken by Seattle in the 2021 expansion draft
  • PK helped Nashville make the Stanley Cup finals his first year with his new club, but fell short of winning it all, losing to the Penguins in six games. He was traded to New Jersey in 2019 to free up cap space.
  • Shea Weber's time in Montreal was plagued by injury. He did help the Habs to their first Stanley Cup Finals appearance in nearly 30 years with their Cinderella run in the 2021 playoffs, but lost the series in five games. Weber has been LITRetired ever since that run.

How did you guys feel about those trades when they happened? Ambivalence? Excitement?
