Canada becomes a US territory.

The tariffs end.

Federal taxes are scrapped.

We become US citizens & gain the US Constitution.

We can preserve Canada's history & the Canadian identity within the Union.

Just like how Texans or Floridians or Californians have a unique culture.

— Zachary Tisdale 🇨🇦 (@ztisdale) February 2, 2025

I think the Tariffs start on Tuesday, so the Canadians are mentally preparing for their surrender on Sunday

For the next three months, they remained in contact, before she said the groom invited her to a "white party" in Sydney in December, the court heard. She said after arriving at the venue she was "shocked" to learn the man had "organised a wedding".

The bride said she became uncomfortable and wanted to leave, but the groom told her "it was a simple prank".

"He told me that he's organising a prank wedding for his social media. To be precise, Instagram, because he wants to boost his content and wants to start monetising his Instagram page."

In court, footage of the ceremony was played, showing the couple exchanging vows and rings.

While the bride appeared to "enthusiastically" participate in the ceremony, she told the court it was "all an act".

"We had to act to make it look real," she said.

She said she only discovered the "sham" wedding was legal after he asked her to add his name to her application for permanent residency. She said the groom told her he was not a permanent resident and he had "organised the marriage to help him".

But the groom – who has 17,000 followers on Instagram but denied he was a social media influencer – disputed her version of events.

He testified that immediately after they met, he had told her he was bisexual, and that she was "cool with it" and moved into his home.

>bby I'm a bisexual illegal immigrant but I am NOT an influencer

"Precisely why she would participate in a civil marriage and not in a church marriage ceremony went unexplored. It made no sense to me that she would."

Stupid boomer judge, she did it for the 'gram!

That cat hates you because of something you did, not because it's just a cat. For a cat to specifically target your home- nah bro you're the problem. This isn't petty revenge at all- it's catnapping. Do better at life and maybe cats will like you (-127)

I have mulch, I sprinkled vinegar, I grew green onions, I tried motion activated sensors, I sprinkled pepper, I put down pointy rocks, I ran the gamut to deter the cat. (1389)

Why kill the cat because it's owner's an idiot? I guess we're all just living in your world and need to adapt or perish. (-53)

why risk your cat getting poisoned, hit by a car, sick, infected, infested, killed by other feral cats, killed by a dog, killed by a coyote, killed by a bird of prey, killed by a fox, killed by a raccoon, killed by a human, killed by a prey animal fighting back, or getting lost or trapped? (15)

People like you are why society is so miserable. He already tried talking to the neighbor who couldn't care any less. Quit making excuses for shitty pet owners who have no regard for their neighbors! (-4)

No, cruel, emotionally unsafe humans as YOURSELF make this world a worse place. How unkind of a human you must be, I feel bad for those around you. You have no empathy.OP, is also a horrible person. He literally sentenced a cat to death. That cat will be put down within a week at a kill shelter. All shelters this time of year are at full capacity. The cat did nothing wrong and now will die terrified after being taken from his home and locked in a 5x5 cage until he's sentenced to death. You are literally saying OP was RIGHT to do this then you have the nerve to insult the person above and call them "miserable" for having empathy. This is a living breathing animal who experiences pain and hurt and loss and was doing cat things, and was raised by a bad cat owner so it's not his fault, yet being sentenced to death for being who he was created to be.

Where the heck do you live? Basically all outdoor cats I have ever known were at least 15 when they died. Do people shoot them in your neighborhood or something like that? (17)

Your personal anecdotes don't really mean anything. But since you are bringing them up, I live in a city/suburb where people "own" outdoor cats. We do not shoot cats, we don't poison cats, we don't have coyotes patrolling the area. I see a cat plastered on the road literally every single week. I literally only travel the same roads (2 miles) ever. So this one single path has around 30-60 dead cats a year. I had an outdoor cat get killed right in front of my house as a child by a car at night. The cats fight each other, they are killed by cars, diseases, etc. I'm not sure how old the outdoor cats live because usually one day they're just gone, don't really have any bodies to find. The statistics tell the same story, so for every 15 yo outdoor cat you know, I know 50 dead young cats on the street. Horrible sight to see literal kittens dead for no other reason than humanity who let them end up like this. (14)

Like for real nafo presence died by a lot after USAID stoped Jfl

Chuds why do you hate America? Why do you hate the constitution? What did James Madison ever do to you that you hate his work so much?

The 10th Amendment establishes the Anti-Commandeering Doctrine, this is that the federal government cannot force or order states to expend resources for federal functions. SCOTUS first established it in Prigg v. Pennsylvania when they found the federal government could not force states to enforce the Fugitive Slave Act. The '97 landmark case of Printz v. United States was the most recent case they affirmed the doctrine and solidified its current form.

The federal government cannot force states to spend on enforcing federal laws. Immigration laws suffer a double blow because its also exclusive federal jurisdiction, states are not permitted to regulate immigration.

This is settled law. The bimbo is being r-slurred, and she hates America.

Long story short, I met a guy from grindr 10 years older than me. He was the daddy type.

He said he needed the money because he was short on rent. Which wasn't a lot. I was hesitant because I hadn't done it before, but I thought he was also kinda into the fun, but with extra money.

When I came to his place, he looked like he was really struggling. I asked him if he was okay, and he said yes. I gave him a bj and paid him. He really looked like he regretted doing it, being paid for s*x because he had no other choice.

I told him it was just a friendly gift instead, and he didn't have to treat it like a transaction.

I am so guilty. How am I different from a grapist or a mol*ster? I had s*x with someone not from their own will. I didn't enjoy it. I didn't enjoy it at all. I feel disgusted.

I texted him if he wanted to just pay me back in the future and treat it separate from our s*x transaction. But he blocked me already.

EDIT: when i said struggling, i meant struggling financially

Tried to stick her fingers INTO me more than once, grabbed my genitals etc, just generally a lot of unwanted touching in a social situation in a bar with a large group of us.She was very attractive, it was no strings attached, but getting repeatedly sexually assaulted is quite the turn off, even from attractive people.

We were not compatible, had very little if anything in common, and she stalked me.Others I was not attracted to at all, and they had zero boundaries. The one woman is incredibly self centered, almost narcissistic, goes into massive debt, love and s*x bombs, treats her family horribly, hangs out with hard drug addicts who she should have ended the friendship with decades ago, and just makes very bad life choices like getting pregnant on purpose to illegal immigrants who are using her and their kid for a visa or to try to get citizenship and are deadbeat dads neglecting their kids.Another woman had zero goals or ambitions, dropped out of a university, dropped out of a local community college, smoked and used drugs, could have inherited a highly successful business and ran it but refused, has zero self confidence, got with an abusive ex and then got with a sugar daddy who she drained (pun intended) baby trapped and married this abusive man and feels trapped and they are broke.I also re...

One I rejected was, had an instant red flag. We hung out one night but the next day I was sick. I was sick for the next week. We were talking and texting the entire time. Everything seemed normal. Just out of the blue she texted and said if I didn't come over now, I don't care about her. I instantly blocked her without a reply. I was still sick. Another one I rejected had ex, 'trying to commit suicide.' She went over there. She was telling me about it the entire time it was happening and I told her it was not a good idea and that she needed to call the police. If he was willing to hurt himself, there's no telling what he might do to her, I said. She still went, she found herself locked in the bathroom calling me up to get her. I did, but that was the last night I seen her. (1)

Pre COVID I used to have women sneak up on me and play with my hair to flirt with me and that's an instant rejection.  It's a crappy person who touches a stranger's afro. (124)

My husband had a fro as a young man, and he also hated that shit. He said it was an easy litmus test; if a woman touched his shit without permission, she was obviously a dumb b-word and he had no interest in anything with her.And before anyone says anything about "dumb b-word", if a man were to walk up and touch any part of me without my permission I would immediately consider him to be a stupid butthole, so I think that's a fair comparison, if we're going to insult people of either gender who do dumb shit.

As everyone now knows Nick lives in Berwyn

Berwyn is a boring suburb a stone's toss from Chicago. The only significant things about it in order: Filming the car spike (which has been torn down, RIP) in Wayne's World, being the home of Nick Fuentes, and Cigars and Stripes.

Anyone who is planning a pilgrimage to your groyper holy site should stop by for a meal after you get pepper sprayed. Cigars and Stripes is a great and strange place. It is typically a host to bikers , misfits , and all sorts of other weirdos .

And now a quick ad for Cigars and Stripes's wings before we get to the drama. They are still the best I've ever had. He has huge smokers with hundreds of wings slow cooking all day round. They are meaty and juicy , and served over lightly toasted white bread to soak up the flavor

If you didn't watch the ad above , Cigars and Stripes is owned by a dude named Ronnie Lottz. He is a fan of old school pulp horror , wrestling , BBQ , and Cigars . He is also extremely eccentric and possibly a recovered coke head . Ronnie used to be a wrestling manager back in the day and hosts some amatuer events. I attended a event that was a lot of fun, but not everyone appreciated it

https://chronicleillinois.com/news/cook-county-news/wrestling-event-berwyn-draws-ire-little-people-group/

But the noteable drama happened a couple of years before that. As mentioned, Ronnie is a huge fan of classical horror. Every Halloween he hosts a spookie week where he invites freak performances and builds some decorations and pratical jokes around the bar.

One of these practical jokes involves a two way mirror he installed in a door by carving it out, which revealed a monster on the other side when you flipped a switch . Well, one day Ronnie made the biggest mistake of his life. He let a foid perform on comedy night , and she did not appreciate this mirror. Why? Because it was in the women's bathroom .

Ronnie hated the accusations that he was a deviant, but being a former pro wrestling manager, loved the attention and the chance to play front man again. He would give commentary to any journo who asked. One of my favorites is from Jezebel, it is too long to post here, but here's the intro:

(Phone rings)

(A woman answers.) "Bathroom mirror, how can I help you?"

Oh, excuse me, is this Cigars and Stripes?

Yes it is.

I'm calling in regards to a video posted about a two-way mirror in the bathroom—

Hold on.

(Man picks up) Hello?

Hi, I'm with Jezebel, and I'm calling about the two-way mirror in your ladies' restroom.

What does Jezebel do? I've never heard of her. And yes, absolutely: we have a two-way mirror in there, yes, yes; we've had it since 2001.

Okay. So, I'm just wondering why it's in the ladies' room?

Young lady, I have in my beer garden—I have a 10 and a half-foot hole. Did you know that it's haunted. Did you know that a man fell dead. Do you know that we do seven days of Halloween. Do you know that mirror's been there for the longest time. That woman opened the door. I mean she opened the door, there's nothing in there. Open the door and pee and do what you want. Quite frankly I'm enjoying people calling, because I'm selling chicken wings. Look, this woman is looking for a viral video. There's a big movement in reality TV to be outraged about feminism. I've been in professional wrestling. So yes: come see my mirror; eat my wings—I don't know what to tell you, honey.

And you're going to keep the mirror in there?

I will burn this fricking place to the ground before I get rid of that mirror. Do you know how much joy that mirror has brought to us? We're synonymous with Halloween. We do a freaky family fun day, and all the kids look in the mirror. This is a fun house, honey, and if you don't like the two-way mirror, go frick yourself; and if you come on my stage, have something to say. Everyone needs an angle. My angle is: I do barbeque; I promote it, and I break my butt for the local comics in Chicago. I pay them. I try to make them into rock stars. They do nothing, except for this. One girl said she wanted to pull her pants down and show her clitoris to me, and they all came and ate the wings.

https://www.jezebel.com/woman-uncovers-two-way-mirror-in-a-bar-bathroom-owner-1700336259

At the time it made national news and there were dozens of reddit posts about it. The 's video got over 3 million views . Facebook was filled with posts from foids all across Chicagoland declaring they would never go there again.

There was a post on SRD filled with no fun havers , but I can't find it. I don't know if it's because of reddit's terrible search function or because the SRD mods delete everything that is interesting outside of poweruser slapfights.

That's all. I have more stories about Ronnie and the other characters I've met there, but they probably aren't interesting unless you've been there. You can enjoy more of Ronnie's antics on Instagram:

WARNING: EXTREMELY BORING AND PERSONAL BLOGPOST AHEAD, I HIGHLY SUGGEST YOU DO NOT READ IT UNLESS YOU'RE A OR MY FRIEND. THANK YOU.

i debated whether or not to make this post but ultimately decided i should lay out my reasons for (attempting) to quit using the site again, if only to get one last good dose of attention, maybe get some finality, and exist as a cautionary tale. this is not a "frick you userbase" post or insistence for the administration to do anything about the sites content or userbase, simply my logic for why i think i personally should stop using it. i would also generally advise other trans people to avoid the site as well but i know plenty of people who do get something out of reading chud shitholes (seriously i see so many ovarit/kf screenshots on tttt reddit its insane).

anyway i have the big depression. i'm not the most suicidal i've ever been and i'm not considering self harm but i would describe my mental state as seriously fricked up bros. this means more bedrotting, more binge eating, more lapses in executive function, more isolation. i've also for the first time in my short 27 year timespan on this earth actually dug more into these feelings and analyzed them, though this has not lead to any great understanding or an "a-ha" moment on my part. at best it's made me relate more to the stereotypical descriptions of depression and dysphoria. i'm not gonna go too deep into that because its embarrassing tbh. in the past i haven't really considered rdrama to be a major factor in this. a contributor to be sure but i always thought i got more out of it than it took for me. maybe that was delusion or maybe i was just better at tanking the damage in the past. maybe i just took enough and longer breaks and i was never cut out for using the site for an extended period of time. idk. here's some conjecture for why i think its particularly bad for me now:

1) half the country despises my existence and while this fact has always been true it hasn't been as relevant. this leads to me being inundated with a double dose of hatred shoved into my face, first when i see the news elsewhere and again when i browse rdrama. and yes i know nothing ever happens and im being hysterical and yadda yadda yadda. nobody can take my HRT away from me, diy exists. nobody (besides immigrants) is going to be put into camps, things will get better it'll just take time. doesn't mean it's not scary. should i be scared boymoding in a red state? probably not but seeing a news article about kim reynolds trying to legally declare me subhuman certainly isn't fricking helping me not be scared.

2) rdrama has just continued to go on a downward spiral? being someone who started using 4chan at age 12 in 2010 and was constantly called out for being a newstrag, i never really bought into "communities degrade over time" rhetoric. mainly because people are always saying shit is getting worse and i was either too dumb to recognize it or part of the problem myself in the past. but anyway. its definitely a thing with rdrama. a lot of users i liked or at least recognized as someone worth my time have been banned or left the site. and the people coming in to replace them are not the best and brightest. its just. i really really don't care if youre a chud. like yes seeing your ignorant opinions about certain topics does tend to make me flare up with angst, but i really try to not take it too seriously and just have a fun time. it just feels like people aren't coming here to have a fun time or shoot the shit about hobbies or do a little casual reddit trolling. it feels like they're coming here to make themselves and everyone around them miserable.

3) i have better social avenues elsewhere. i'm not talking about tttt because i don't think i'll ever feel like i fit in there, but i do have a friend now who i feel like is on a similar wavelength to me. and interacting with that person has made me realize i have so much more me to express than i am capable of doing on rdrama. its a rather dire comparison that has made me realize more and more how fricking stupid i am for putting up with this for so long. i said it the other day, lonely people tend to act deranged, and it turns out having your sole social outlet be a website full of people that hate you is pretty fricking deranged. being surrounded by people that hate me has been my modus operandi for a long time (much longer than i've been on rdrama), and only now am i realizing how fricked up that is. i'm not conceited enough to say i'm finally growing up, but i do think this time is a little bit different. idk we'll see i guess lmao

thats that. i'll respond to comments here but after that im outie 5k, gonna log out everywhere and scramble my password again. i once again do not know how to end this post
