Are you sure about that?

Because he says both.

Simple. You lie when questioned. Consistency is for other people to worry about.

Think of Luke as a religious reformist in a way, rejecting the institutions of a religion while not rejecting the religion itself. He was Martin Luther with a lightsaber.

So he’s a splitter…

But seriously, we all know that Lucas was flying by the seat of his pants writing the sequels and that his wife is the real hero of Star Wars. Everything that came afterwards was created by someone else. In the end Lucas’s story, Luke still used dark side powers. He called himself “Jedi”, but he was simply a Force user with wild ideas about the past. There were no strictly light side users or dark side users anymore. There was simply the Force. If you want to take extended canon into account, Yoda even stated this when he destroyed the last of the Jedi archives. He understood that balance could only be truly restored by letting go of the past.

What he intended and what he showed us are two different things. By the end of ROTJ, there were no more Sith and no real Jedi left. Luke called himself a Jedi, but didn’t really follow the strict rules and didn’t completely shun the dark side. He simply used it without anger. At that point, balance was truly restored.

Yes, most Canadians don’t mind paying for more services. Tell that to the politicians actively defunding health care while introducing private for-profit clinics that cost more than public health care both to the province and to the patient, just like Doug Ford is doing right now. Public services only work when we elect people willing to make them work. Remember this the next time you go to the polls.

At first you were complaining that you were paying money for a service, and now you’re complaining that you’d rather pay money for a service. If it’s a government service, you’ll have politicians trying to defund it just like they are with health care, or sell it off like Ontario did with Hydro One. If it’s a government regulated private service, it doesn’t have to deal with that, but it needs a way to fund itself. Pick your poison…

If you don’t want unsolicited commercial mail, you can always contact your local post office and request to be added to the no flyers list. Just because you don’t like flyers doesn’t mean that mail delivery isn’t important when it matters.

You’re not paying a fuck ton of money. Canada Post is a separate entity from the government and is a self-sustaining business that receives no money from the government.

Unsolicited commercial mail is paid for by the company sending it. All mail is paid for by the people sending it. It doesn’t cost you anything to receive it. And when it really matters, like those “rare” correspondence that contain your drivers license, or insurance slips, or your health card, or your doctor’s appointments, or even your small parcels from eBay, I’m sure you want those as soon as they come in. You should care about regular mail delivery. Because once you lose it, it’s never coming back.

So the person that complained their competition is beating them because they deliver packages on evenings and weekends is now complaining that mail, which is essentially small parcels that are paid for accordingly, are delivered too often. Contract negotiation time always brings out the most interesting stories…

Build her a server, install it at her house, set up some sort of automated DVD ripping mechanism so that she can digitize her own collection, wait for the inevitable tech support call, then go spend a Sunday afternoon fixing her server and digitizing her collection for her while she makes you dinner. You get to call it “quality time”, and you get fed while keeping her happy and her collection as far away from yours as possible. Win/win, everyone is happy.

You’re not “subsidizing post”. Canada Post is a completely separate entity that generates it’s own revenue. They don’t receive any money from the government.

Bullshit. They cry bankrupt every time contract negotiations come up. They just wasted millions on those fucking useless C250 trucks that are so poorly designed that they can’t hold large boxes. They aren’t broke, there is no financial crisis, they just don’t want to pay the people actually doing the work.

Neelix and Kes should have been a father figure/orphaned little sister relationship. Neelix lost his sister in the metreon cascade. Kes lost her father not long before running away to the surface. Both should have played into those roles instead of the weird creepy relationship they went with. They wouldn’t have needed to be shot out of a torpedo tube without Neelix’s incessant jealously over every little thing.

This is a very factual article. I’m not sure where the satire is.

No, really, he had received countless offers of marriage. Mostly from young gay men. OK, exclusively from young gay men, but it still counts.

False. Tractor beams would make pocket pussies even better.

They don’t need a warning. They know he’ll go through with it. They want him to go through with it. “Oh that’s just talk” is gaslighting designed to convince you to not do anything about it until it’s too late. This is a warning to everyone else…get out there and VOTE! Don’t let the Conservative party lead us down the path of austerity and cuts like they do every time they are in power.

The federal carbon price is not the “be-all, end-all” of climate policy, and New Democrats are open to alternative plans presented by premiers, NDP environment critic Laurel Collins said Wednesday.

The provinces have had literally years to come up with their own solution. They are free to create their own solution right now. The federal carbon tax is merely a back stop for provinces that don’t have their own solution. This is all pure politics that doesn’t help anyone…

I learned this years ago. Many minivans are capable of towing 3500 pounds and can hold 4’x8’ sheets of plywood flat on the floor. The bonus is that I can also carry 6 passengers with me if I need, which you can’t do with a pickup. At least not legally, anyways.
