Listening to two women on the subway talk about how affirmative action is bad. One of them is a person of colour and they both agree women are not cut out for some jobs.

Okay? If people were never complicit in social structures which harm groups of which they are themselves a part, it'd be a lot easier to fix a lot of broken poo poo in this world. This is hardly a novel or surprising situation.

This is going to be the new normal thanks to climate change making the fires worse. When I got off the plane a few minutes ago I was surprised at just how bad it smells. Gonna go shop for a mask this weekend. Looks like it's time to learn how to ride with a respirator.

Someone better at memes should take one of those pictures, and put a "this is what PG or wherever looks after legalisation!"

I don't know about Halifax restaurants but you should locate some of that delicious Chris Brothers Pepperoni, say, about enough to fill a small luggage

Better than our bullshit downtown train though. If you ride that stupid lil train do not under any circumstances give it any money. Downtown food, try Gahan House on the waterfront. Get some oysters if you’re game. edit: above poster also has good ideas. Press Gang is $$$ though.

All the places I knew in Halifax are pretty much gone now. Like the entire building Rogues Roost was in was just a hole when i was last there in 2016. Though I doubt the quality of Halifax resturants has gone down, as you could never really had a lackluster place because everyone was so good. Strange Adventures is still there, just moved to Lower Water Street across from the Maritime Museum of the Atlantic. Go there for a great nerd store. I've been to the Press Gang once, for my moms 60th birthday. I had the most amazing prime rib there. They put garlic mashed potatos in the holes where the ribs had been.

So Bernier's fuckhead attitude resulted in some cock vandalizing the park sign in Winnipeg. I wish there was a way we could hold these fuckers accountable for inciting violence rather than letting them smugly get away with plausible deniability or some other half cocked excuse. And of course that fuckhead Scheer isn't going to do anything about Bernier. He should toss him out of the party and let the fucker go shill for some pissbaby autocrat somewhere. Seems to be the retirement goal for a number of conservative politicians. Arc Hammer fucked around with this message at 06:32 on Aug 18, 2018 |

Halifax stuff: Chives is awesome, but pricey. Bicycle thief also good. Coastal cafe on robie is amazing. Salvatore's in the north end for pizza, cheese curds for poutine/burgers. Baan Thai and chaaba Thai. Wasabi house for sushi

EvidenceBasedQuack posted:I don't know about Halifax restaurants but you should locate some of that delicious Chris Brothers Pepperoni, say, about enough to fill a small luggage I was just in Halifax on my way to PEI and we brought back a bunch of that stuff! The TNT flavour is pretty danged tasty although the texture is really weird - more like a balogna than what you'd expect from a pepperoni. I recommend hanging it to dry out for at least a couple days. Crustashio posted:Halifax stuff: Our Bicycle Thief experience was brutal. Place seems like a tourist trap catering to boomers. Food was alright I guess but service wasn't good. After an hour of waiting for our mains I offered to settle up... they told us it was coming out any minute which turned into another 20. I would recommend the Old Apothecary for pastries though. They knew what they were doing. Not quite at the level of what you can get in Montreal but pretty close.

Arcsquad12 posted:So Bernier's fuckhead attitude resulted in some cock vandalizing the park sign in Winnipeg. This is exactly why the Conservative party is set to splinter. Harper wouldn't let any of his MPs talk out of turn, he knew the only way to keep the party going and keep getting votes was to just dogwhistle and be only as racist as the public would allow. He rarely even talked about his own social conservative value. Scheer has no control over anyone though and it already seems like half his MPs are going for his head. Laminar posted:Bicycle Thief and Press Gang for Lunch/Dinner. Edna's for breakfast. We decided to do a small pub hop yesterday and hit up Economy Shoe Shop, Stillwell and The Fickle Frog. I was actually surprised that downtown was still fairly busy at midnight. Going to hit up Edna's for sure tomorrow. Crustashio posted:Halifax stuff: I don't know if I'm going to get as far as the North End but Salvatore's looks real good pokeyman posted:loving harbour hopper. Better than our bullshit downtown train though. If you ride that stupid lil train do not under any circumstances give it any money. I thought the little road train looked sort of fun? I wanted to do at least one guided tour and the Habour Hopper seemed like the best money to things to see ratio. Thanks for the recommendations, Halifax is pretty cool and hopefully doesn't have an insanely racist underbelly like the rest of this country because everyone seems very cool+nice so far.

I'm just salty because where I work I can hear the train toot its fake whistle every 25 minutes on the dot. Ditto harbour hopper. By all means go for it  https://twitter.com/RWJBoon/status/993966766190661632 quote:Thanks for the recommendations, Halifax is pretty cool and hopefully doesn't have an insanely racist underbelly like the rest of this country because everyone seems very cool+nice so far. It definitely does, but I’m glad you’re enjoying things so far!

The password this week is silly (Validation is for Parking). Long story short, go to the Middle Spoon (a dessert place), give the password and they take you down into a basement through the kitchen into a speakeasy themed bar. It is bougie as heck, but the cocktails are next level. Would recommend. Don't go if you drive, I think every drink is 3 oz.
