Hollow Knight.

At first, I was a bit put off by what I felt were stiff mechanics (I played the Ori games first), then I tried it again after a while and realized the mechanics were really just precise.

And now I'm absolutely hooked on Silksong and nothing else compares.

I'm glad the noise pollution at least gets a mention. Benn Jordan (who has some of the very best and most fascinating videos on all of YouTube) did an excellent video a about it.

Completely unacceptable. MMR is one of the most successful vaccines in history — three doses provides lifetime protection and herd immunity with 90% coverage.

It absolutely should be an entry requirement at the border any enrollment in any public institution.

I know a number of people at NIH and NIAID — amazing and incredibly skilled physicians, nurses, and healthcare workers across the gamut of disciplines — and I feel awful for them.

Imagine having worked your whole life, reach the pinnacle of your field at the most esteemed facility in the nation, possibly the world ... only for a worms-in-a-human-suit buffoon and his fascist cabal, who collectively have negative amounts of knowledge on science and medicine, to tear it all down through sheer evil and greed.

Oof. Wish I'd remembered this before I ordered something the other day with Canada Post shipping.

Honestly, Manitoba may not be a bad choice for you (unless the no mountains thing is a deal breaker).

  • left leaning government for at least another three years
  • $120k CAD salary will be very comfortable anywhere in the province
  • cold as balls half the year (since you're okay with cold)
  • lots of farmland for locally grown food

Manitoba has, uh... hills ;)

But also has a left leaning government (for at least another three years, probably longer with our voting patterns) and low CoL. $120k CAD can be very comfortable here, even in Winnipeg.

In Toronto or Vancouver, you'd be a peasant.

In Winnipeg, you'd be a king.

We call them "Albertans."

Manitoba always gets political whiplash every few election cycles. Fortunately, we just entered the NDP cycle after almost a decade of PC horrors.

You forgot about Manitoba (that's okay, everyone does lol). We're safe from a willfully destructive government for at least another three years.
