Based on the report, the average asking rent for a one-bedroom unit in Canada was $1,923 in October, down 0.8 per cent from a year ago. The average asking price for a two-bedroom unit was $2,308, down 0.2 per cent.

Oh, be still my beating heart. 0.2%. Remind me how much it has increased since 2019?

The report says asking rents in Canada have increased overall by a total of 21 per cent, or an average of $384 per month, from two years ago, just before the start of interest rate hikes by the Bank of Canada.

The cope among thr Democrats post election has been embarassing. 0 reflection as to why they lost (just like in 2016), blaming every possible external factor imaginable instead of thinking “hey, maybe we sucked and need to actualy be people that people want to elect” instead of relying on the “ooooh this guy is bed, better vote for us to keep him out” strategy.

They have fucked up in a major way, in what should have been a slam-dunk election, by ignoring what people actually want and trying to be Great Value Republicans when the right has Coca-Cola Fascism readily available to them.

I hope adherence to the corporate staus quo was worth it, you absolute fucking buffoons.

“Kamala Harris Hillary Clinton predicted to win by nearly every major forecaster”

Its like 2016 never even fucking happened lol

If someone is undecided at this point, they’re either disingenuous and embarrassed about their support for Trump, or they’re a moron.

Agreed. Thats why I like the reverse sear method of:

• Salting the steaks
• Rest them on a wire rack (preferablt in the fridge overnight, but at least an hour)
• Cook it in the oven at a low temp until the thickest part is at ~120°F
• Sear in a high heat cast iron pan a minute or two per side until you like the crust.

The nice think about baking it vs sous-vide is that the oven dries out the surface for a reallt nice crust. You also dont need to buy a sous-vide setup and can use things you already have.

The only downside to this method is that you dont get anything in the pan for a pan sauce (if thats what you’re into).

Of all the music apps, why? I HATE Youtube Music. I only use it because I get it free with Youtube Premium, but its a shit app. Google Music and Google Podcasts died for this?

First off, I can’t separate my podcasts from my music like I used to when we had two discrete apps, so whenever I want to listen to one, it erases the queue for the other. Why not have the ability to have seperate playlists for each?

Then there was the whole “merging your liked Youtube videos with your liked songs”, so you’d get the audio from a 7 minute video playing at random intervals while you’re just trying to listen to music. To their credit, they did fix that after several months of user complaints.

It also crashes fairly regularly when I’m broadcasting to my Google home speaker, which is actually kind of funny when you think about it.

All in all, 2/10 app, would not recommend.

Right? The democracts need to stop being the “not as bad” party and start being the “actually good for people” party if they want people to vote for them.

It would be absolutely hilarious if they all ended up out of office before Trudeau, but for some reason, Ontario has the memory of a goldfish when it comes to Dougie.

Ah, sweet, new manmade horrors beyond my comprehension.

Ill always remember the clip of Jordan Klepper at a Trump rally talking to a guy who has been making four times as much as he ever did under Obama during the Trump presidency.

His field of work? Debt relief.

Womp womp.

Newsflash: with the increasing extreme weather events, everywhere is becoming a “disaster-prone area”.

Asheville, NC is 300 miles from the nearest coast and still got its shit rocked by a hurricane.

AI “art” removes the hurdle for the wealthy of actually having talent to produce “art”, while simultaneously removing the artist’s ability to produce wealth from their talents.

Everytime someone shares an AI generated video, song, picture, etc., I cringe a little. Its just not good, or at best, anything that couldn’t be produced by a reasonably capable artist, but hey at least its free, right?

You can reliably quickly tell if a news source is credible depending on how many appeals to emotion and superfluous adjectives/descriptors are found in their articles.

A lot of it is about parsing multiple sources, and extrapolating the data from the spin.

Israel has killed approximately FIVE TIMES as many kids under the age of ten alone than the entire Israeli casualty count from Oct 7.

This is not defense, its extermination. I have no idea how anyone can look at the data and take it any other way.

People need to stop seeing a “balanced budget” as the top measure of a responsible government.

A country is not a household. They are not going to repo Manitoba if we have too much debt. The vast, VAST majority of countries carry debt, and carrying debt is preferable to austerity measures that gut social programs and supports in service of a balanced budget.

No, I’m pretty sure its the indiscriminate bombing of children overseas that’ll do it.

Canadian here. No, you fucking dont. We basically have 2 major players (Loblaws and Sobeys), and they were caught red-handed fixing the price of bread a few years ago, and faced next to no punishment for it.

Its actually insane how hard the US clings to the death penalty.
