They will ask that, but there’s often space to explain because of things like this and political prisoners. I’m not sure how Canada’s forms work and if he was convicted of something closer to selling multiple pounds to minors than simple possession*, that probably wouldn’t fly no matter what, but it’s definitely worth a shot.

*intent to sell is also determined very differently in different countries- in Germany, for example, having a scale stored with your supply or having multiple strains of weed in separate bags would not bump you up to intent to sell, but it does in the US

Doritos did actually buy Taco Bell, in a sense.

Edit: that link still makes you do some digging, but here’s the Taco Bell part

Even a country where weed is legal?

Your point stands, but 2019 was more than five years ago

That’s not for dreamers, it’s even worse: it’s for people born in the US to parents here illegally or temporarily.

We’ve got friends who are about to have their second kid, and they’re going a little nuts because they want to socialize a lot more than they are, but can only hang out at like 10:30 am.

I asked them why they don’t just make friends with other parents in the area (they moved to a kid friendly neighborhood with a bunch of young families), and they kind of made a face and didn’t answer.

But like, why not? It seems like the perfect topic to bond over and you can watch the kids together, giving you plenty of time to hang out.

Merkel famously hated Putin. They worked together, for better or for worse, but she did not personally like him. She has a phobia of dogs and he’s a dog lover, which she would have obviously been fine, but he brought a large dog to one of their meetings after her office had requested otherwise, which she felt was an attempt to intimidate her.

Thank god. Hopefully that means the rest of the world won’t get dragged into the next gulf war and the US won’t join the next Vietnam.

Now, when does this get applied to the US ally that isn’t changing its mind (Israel)?

The last one is irrelevant, but the fact that he felt he had to disclose it is fucked

I’m pretty sure it’s The Gift of Fear by Gavin de Becker, here’s an excerpt with the kangaroo story.

They didn’t fall off the cruise ship, but off of a container ship nearby.

Sixteen containers fell from a cargo ship near the Nab tower lighthouse off Bembridge, Isle of Wight, at around 6pm on Saturday.

The cruise ship is stuck because the container ship needs to recover the containers to protect the environment (and they don’t explicitly say, but moving a cruise ship through the harbor will kick up sediment and might damage the containers).

I’m an immigrant in Germany and began learning German at eighteen. I’m C2 and getting my masters in German language instruction, but I still feel so exhausted after interacting in German for long periods of time. I’m also generally an introvert, so it’s draining in multiple ways. I know it’s just that I need more experience and there’s no real helping it, but it really kills my mood sometimes. I work as a salesperson/barista at a bakery, teach classes, and interact with all my friends in German, but my husband speaks perfect English and it’s such a relief to be able to talk to him in English at home.

Though trump might be a spy, gell?

Asbestos might not cause mesothelioma if ingested, but it’s been linked to digestive system cancers as well

It’s always nice when you don’t have to feel mixed emotions about someone

I mean, ideally they want to stay.

I can’t tell if H is a troll or just really stupid (or both). She and I clash about several subjects and she does sometimes straight antagonize the rest of us, but she’s also weirdly ill-informed about a lot of things and 67 years old. A lot of the antagonism seems to stem from her expecting everyone to defer to her because of her age, but because she’s not very smart, she orders us to do things that don’t make sense, then gets annoyed when we don’t.

I mostly just try to ignore her and don’t accept any food from her unless it’s prepackaged and I know what it is.

Yeast is a fungus, honey is made by bees. I used to be pretty neutral about honey, but we don’t adequately protect bees from the cold and other perils when we keep them.

That’s a good law. Now if we could only enforce it.

It’s not evenly split, it’s $50/week for each week worked between 2021-2024, up to ~$7,700/worker.

It’s still not enough. Especially because that’s roughly equivalent to 200 minutes of minimum wage pay for NYC.
