it’s quite easy for Canada to get rid of the monarchy, just pass a law saying that Canada is a fully independent constitutional republic that doesn’t have or recognize a monarchy

a whole bunch of other former colonies have already done exactly this and it’s gone just fine

we really should, gently caress the monarchy

manhattan and long island (not the region, the actual island that contains brooklyn, queens, and the bronx), which comprise most of the municipal boundaries of new york city, are closer to the state of new jersey than they are to the state of new york, both of which are separate states within the united states. they have been for quite some time, having both been one of its original thirteen colonies. the area i was referring to, new york, has been a state since 1788. you may be more familiar with it as the area commonly referred to by people from new york city or northern new jersey as "upstate new york"

the bronx is not on long island, it's on the mainland

this also means that the islands are closer to the new york portion of the mainland than the NJ portion, so even by your really strange metrics, it is approrpiate that new york city remains a part of new york state

the difference is that the other colonies didn’t have a pierre trudeau coming in and writing down a bullshit constitution with an asinine amendment process. rip to canada’s most influential, and therefore worst, prime minister i guess

Christman, among other "leftists," was very quick to reinstate in-person events during the pandemic because his income depended on it.

I believe an actual leftist, Upton Sinclair, said a well-known thing about this phenomenon.

this is bizarre

you know podcats are like an online thing, right?

like, live shows exist, but are a very small portion of any income that someone on one of the most popular podcasts on patreon makes

Much of the income podcasts like Stuff You Should Know make is from live events and Chapo is no different. They were doing live shows into April 2020 when it was already well known that large gatherings killed people. So gently caress ‘em.

when adam friedland was talking numbers i guess cum town was kind of a big deal

but i guess that's the exception? i just assume the big podcasts i follow make money and the small ones don't so much because :capitalism:

i mostly don't patreon stuff but would for a select few on and off

they also didn't really gate any content behind the patreon - they're very aware of the pirate feed of their patreon episodes, and have stated that they don't give a poo poo if people just listen that way

it's okay if people taht spend seven years creating content for people make a few bucks. Also keep in mind they all get to pay $1500/mo for private health insurance cause america.
