have you considered investing in a move to a place with either good public transit or no snow

I see you have never visited literally anywhere in Canada. We suck at public transit which forces everyone into cars to pinball all over the roads because no one knows how to drive in loving snow.

Slow down you loving dinks, snow tires and AWD/4WD doesnt mean you can still do 120 on the 400 and stop on a dime. :argh:

i have family all over the place, in areas i can't fly to. i also work outdoors during the spring/summer. not having a vehicle would make this much harder for me.

also, i like going into the mountains when weather permits. there is no easy way to get there without a car.

I actually recommend the Italian political drama 1992 which charts the collapse of the First Republic during the clean hands investigation that saw the collapse of all major parties and the rise of Berlusconi, lega nord and the rehabilitation of the post-fascist right.

There's a character in it who's a gulf war vet who becomes a lega nord parliamentary candidate after he beats up an immigrant

before my car broke down irreparably last spring, we'd usually only drive once or twice a month and bike/walk/transit the rest of the time, but it still cost a lot less than a rental of some sort for those times instead

Gobbeldygook posted:

I feel like I'm arguing with an Eliza Bot. They agreed to the treaty of 1851. In 1868 they agreed to a new treaty with new borders and relinquished their claim on some land in exchange for various promises from the US government. The US government was bad and took land that was theirs, notable the Black Hills, under the 1868 treaty. The courts ruled that their claim on the Black Hills was valid and they deserved compensation for its seizure. They said nothing about the 1851 treaty! What part of this are you not getting? Are you claiming the Supreme Court ruled the 1868 treaty was entirely invalid and only the 1851 treaty applies? Because here's the decision. You can go read it for yourself right now and they literally only mention the 1851 treaty of Fort Laramie once and only in the context of it being superseded by the 1868 treaty of Fort Laramie.

The Lakota are the moral equivalent of Israeli settlers who want to unjustly take over their neighbors land. Fortunately, the Lakota are too weak to actually do what they clearly wish they could do.
