Some amazing news! This is such an amazing accomplishment.
BREAKING: This is huge news, the EU's equivalent of the 🇺🇸Supreme Court's 2015 Obergefell v. Hodges ruling.

🇪🇺Court of Justice just ruled all 🇪🇺countries must recognise same-sex marriages granted in other member states.

This effectively legalises gay marriage across 🇪🇺

When this came out, I was in college. Living in the dorm in my sophomore year.

The game blew me away. I didn’t even think computers were capable of what this game provided.

It was also terrifying. My neighbour had to constantly ask me to tone it down since I was panicking a lot while playing.

We need more of this. Ford and co. are extremely corrupt, and are actively destroying public services in Ontario.

I'm not one to generally post OS rumours, but Passan is usually pretty dialled in and accurate.

Imagine a line-up of Vladdy, a healthy Santander, Bo and Tucker. It would certainly make for a killer OS.

I truly hate Shoppers. I stopped using them ages ago. Find your local family owned pharmacy and stop fueling this horrible corporation.
"...Shoppers has billed more for med reviews than it did in the previous seven years combined and has an average revenue per pharmacy of $184K, which is more than double that same figure for the other seven chains, and as much as 16 times the average revenue per pharmacy."

The fact that this fucking prick doesn't just disappear into the woods after all of this really paints a picture of just how vile he truly is.

Love this.

Let’s hope that none of these nazis ever get to enjoy the benefits of the society that they’re actively trying to destroy.
I’m still struggling with the fact that ICE “brown shirts” went to a taco shop and thought they would get served.

John Fetterman survived a stroke in 2022, which would be considered a pre existing condition.

He has a defibrillator for vfib, which can cost $34,000 to over $51,000.

He was one of 8 Dems who voted to gut the ACA and reopen the government.

He doesn’t have to worry, he has healthcare for life
