Anyone who wears a cowboy hat with a suit and tie is an asshole in my book.

blunderworld@lemmy.cato News•Trump Admin Threatens to Stop Social Security If DOGE Can't Have Personal DataEnglish47·1 month agoI think there are very few decisions he could make that would be more likely to trigger a massive political uprising. Fuck around and find out, I suppose.
blunderworld@lemmy.cato Canada@lemmy.ca•Canadian Muslims outraged as Quebec moves to ban religious symbols at schools, including hijabEnglish32·1 month agoI think this is more indicative of the historical influence of Christianity over French Canadian affairs than it is proof of modern Quebec’s perception of world religions…
blunderworld@lemmy.cato Canada@lemmy.ca•Canadian Muslims outraged as Quebec moves to ban religious symbols at schools, including hijabEnglish41·1 month agoChristianity is still by far the predominant religion in Quebec. There are more Christians in Quebec than people who identify as non-religious.

blunderworld@lemmy.cato Canada@lemmy.ca•Canadian Muslims outraged as Quebec moves to ban religious symbols at schools, including hijabEnglish63·1 month agoI saw that, but I’m very skeptical it will be enforced with the same frequency as hijabs. In my experience, Quebec is obsessed with promoting it’s own culture. Christianity is a big part of French Canadian culture, so I expect it will get a pass. It’s very much a “rules for thee, not for me” sort of place.
If I’m wrong and it’s enforced equally for everyone, that’s better. I still don’t think the government has any business making laws around peaceful religious expression, however.
blunderworld@lemmy.cato Canada@lemmy.ca•Canadian Muslims outraged as Quebec moves to ban religious symbols at schools, including hijabEnglish177·1 month agoI think this is wrong. I get that the hijab is complicated ethically, as it’s expected of Muslim women. Wether or not it’s consensual is debatable, sure.
I’ve also spoken to Muslim women who claim to be wearing it voluntarily, because it makes them feel less objectified and more comfortable in their own skin. It’s also a connection to their cultural and religious background, which is important. As a non-Muslim, I don’t really think I’m qualified to argue. I don’t think it should be the provincial government’s decision either. At the end of the day, it’s a piece of cloth… What does it really hurt?
When I lived in Quebec, I saw plenty of Christian religious symbols. Will removing those be enforced as well?
blunderworld@lemmy.cato Technology•Qobuz reveals how much it really pays per stream, and I want to see more of this transparency to help us spend money more ethicallyEnglish15·1 month agoI’ve been using Qobuz for a couple of years and I love it. Great audio quality, has 90% of any music I’m looking for, and seems to be far less morally bankrupt than many alternatives.
Great pick. Pisces is the song that got me into them.

blunderworld@lemmy.cato World News@lemmy.ml•Trump says he will hit Canada with 25% tariff next week after month-long pauseEnglish2·2 months agoSure, because his threat was so successful at intimidating us the first time. What’s the definition of insanity, again?
blunderworld@lemmy.cato Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•would dating my ex friend be worth it, do you think he could love me and would calm down if i said yes or am i just thinking this out of sadness?English91·2 months agoNo offense, but you really need to figure yourself our before you try dating anyone else.

I honestly cannot believe they left the B. Not because bisexuality isnt valid. Just because it seems like exactly the kind of thing Trump’s team would say is fake news.
He probably doesnt know what it stands for.

Crusader Kings 3 is my favourite game like this. I wouldn’t say the point is to go to war, but it’s a pretty big part of the experience. Has a lot of DLC but you can definitely have a ton of fun with the base game if you don’t want to commit to that.
