In Queens NY, it’s pretty common for streets with the same number to intersect each other. Eg: 69th street, 69th ave, 69th lane…

I know too many people who have had kids recently. Most of them are the “if I ignore politics, it can’t hurt me” type

I can

But at least Gaza is saved, right?

I take it maple syrup wrestling was involved, as is tradition

This is one of my biggest anxieties as I always have both around. Sometimes I have to put in eye drops while legally blind. Though it does mean I quadruple check anything that goes in my eyes and know the eye drops containers well

I don’t sword swallower or fire breathe because they’re exceptionally dangerous, speaking as a fire performance veteran

The absolute best thing about it is the community. It’s an international community, but everyone treats each other like family. It’s coming in clutch right now that I’m moving internationally.

Pros and cons of performing?

Pros: it’s a great creative outlet, you end up with a lot of cool props and clothes, you meet some fantastic people

Cons: it doesn’t make much money, you meet some assholes with inflated egoes, depending on what you do it’s very competitive

I specifically do circus sideshow, fire, and burlesque (Coney Island if you know of it), which has the additional pro of being really fun at parties and getting to play with dangerous objects, but has the con that there is a real risk of severe injury

I’m a performance artist. My favorite act is a sideshow burlesque act inspired by Junji Ito

If egging a car and torching multiple dealerships carry the same penalty, well…

In This Moment

I used to love them when I was little, then forgot about them for a decade. They’ve only improved over time.

Stolen Babies is a long time favorite too, I love Dominique Persi

Theatres des Vampires is also fun

The Birthday Massacre of course

I think you mean Florida

Americans don’t even want to be American

Canada needs to ban X asap

Still too low, I think he should raise it to 100%! (/s) Anyway how is CPC’s 30 point lead doing today? To shreds you say, tsk tsk tsk

ADHD

Every time

I’m sure his very stable highschool geniuses are well equipped to handle a multi pronged DDOS

World War 3: Return of the Civil War

Pandemic 2: Bird Measles

Depression 2

All at the same time

I fully expect Dems to capitulate

I think they expect it to capitulate and become a territory like Puerto Rico with no benefits. The other half of the equation is that Reps are banking on there never being another election again.

But otherwise yeah, if Canada somehow got full statehood and added any number of states, Reps would never win again. The only Canadians who align with Republicans are the weird far right loons in the CPC. The LPC (and parts of CPC) are basically US Democrats, NDP is closest to the two or so progressives we have. Bloc Quebecoise would just cry at that point.
