I'm Canadian but for some reason you never see tangerines anymore. Plenty of other citrus but not tangerines
I also would like to see pink and red fleshed apples in the store. And pawpaws. I sometimes get some from my local farmer friend and they are SO good but hard to come by.
The absolutely only thing I miss from my non vegan days is the Buffalo wing and blue cheese chips our local grocery chain has. They are spicy to a degree that makes you break out in a sweat and I think I almost liked them more for the endorphins they gave than eating them. I've never found a similar tasting brand,Wegmans in the states has a version but they don't even begin to compare taste wise.
The internet has made a lot of people armchair experts happy to offer their perspective with a degree of certainty, without doing the work to identify gaps in their knowledge. Often the mark of genuine expertise is knowing the limitations of your knowledge....
I worked for a gyne who did abortions and got the pathology reports. Every one said the same thing "the specimen contained spongy pieces of hemorrhagic tissue". It's so microscopic and it's absolutely not like what anti choice assholes claim it is. It is so insignificant.
Have the abortion. Don't hesitate. Get on with your life. It's what matters, not a piece of tissue. It's your choice and nobody else's. You deserve to be happy and safe and not forced to go through hell.
FWIW I'm Christian and still incredibly pro choice. Don't believe any of their propaganda. They lie.
I've driven through Tennessee and seen billboards from CPS that say "Don't cook, you'll lose your kids" (by cook they mean meth). Like they have to come out and say it that plainly, it's such a problem.
I am Canadian and offered on my Facebook page to mail abortion pills to Americans, got IMMEDIATELY banned for 30 days, and was interviewed by Vice about that. Facebook is complicit.

I want to see if I can get a spark of the "old internet" back by making a starting page for myself with all kinds of cool websites. But not sure where to start because Google obviously will not work for this....
Metafilter is a wonderful weblog, and I also read Canlii, which is a legal case website which is a wonderful rabbit hole to fall down to learn about how legal decisions are made.
I would always always always rather go to the bathroom with a trans person rather than a conservative. Those people are truly dangerous, and trans people are awesome. They also are not the ones who randomly decide to shoot someone for existing.
I think olives in brine are not nice, but a life changing way to eat olives is to marinate them in an olive oil/rosemary/garlic kind of marinade over several days and they are truly a game changer.
It was kind of a dying former factory small city for a long time, only notable for producing a pair of famous serial killers of all things, and in the last ten years it got an arts centre and suddenly the downtown is thriving. I wouldn't want to live there again but I'm glad for the city that it has some rejuvenation.
I've observed if I say nothing (because I simply don't know how to react), opinionated people think you agree with them, which I don't. I don't care....
I think Tiktok can often be creative and informative, which Facebook is definitely not though. I don't use Tiktok but what people have sent me have usually been funny.
Marketplace when I was moving saved me many trips because people will come pick up any old thing, but it was the pits of hell to deal with. Some lady ghosted me picking up some doors, so I moved on to the next person, and she messaged me back three weeks later saying she was interested again, and was mad as blazes I hadn't held onto them.
