Fuck we were coming back from Kananaskis this spring and had to drive thru Calgary, some dude just randomly stopped in the middle of the highway during rush-hour traffic with no warning to look at something on the shoulder, we almost rear-ended him and almost got rear ended ourselves cause the guy behind us wasn't paying attention.

Oh I get it's not healthy, when it begins to make my blood boil I tune out, it's become nothing but a covid fear factory these days and racism hides at every street corner like the boogie man. i have been watching it lately cause it's winter and cold and the rest of tv is even worse than the news these days, they banned all my youtube channels where I could get actual news.

"Everyone thinks the other side is the brainwashed side" - no doubt, it's like they can't see the divide being created by manipulation and propaganda. I saw some news stories where they literally contradict themselves in the same story, I can't believe they can read that teleprompter with a strait face. I wanted to be a journalist at some point until I did a job shadow. I walked right out on day one and it wasn't even that bad back then either!

"Those eastern accents though, they make mine sound light" I'm franglish that was raised on the border of quebec and NB (gaspe coast), lived in moncton where we speak shiac and add a dash of reserve. It's mostly tamed cause I've been here so long but I pull out my accent to make people laugh sometimes. It's even funnier if I have someone from my region to speak it with cause then they see it's legit and I'm not the only one and someone actually understand it. The spelling is wacked too.
