Just get her to cover a few hundred every month. It's true, you so own the equity in the apartment. Or she can cover food or something. If you guys stay together and get a place together someday, then maybe it's 50 50.

It's because of social media. It creates echo chambers. People prone to hate, greed, or just stupid people, tend to flock to certain echo chambers. I think it's by design. Silicon valley wants this right wing dystopia.

Weed was easy. Don't even think I was addicted. For me, I've been struggling for with sleeping pills lately. Might go back to the weed but just do oils before bed for sleep. I'm a shift worker in a high stress job so I need something at night to calm the nerves sometimes.

Had a guy that used to find me on reddit and respond to everything I said. It was innocent and funny because it was literally just him talking shit out the prequel star wars to me. Not really an argument I guess. He did it for like 3 years. Stopped doing it about 8 years ago. Wonder what happened to that guy.

Life is vastly different than in the 80s. You can literally know anything you want right now, simply by asking an artificially intelligent handheld computer that has access to every discovery known to man. We're on the cusp of being able to cure almost any disease and live forever. We can blow the planet up 10x over and still have ammo left. Scientists can see so far away that they can almost see the beginning of time. Nothing your great grandfather saw in his life will compare to what you will see in yours, have already seen.

Starting to look this way

That's different. Not only was the us way less advanced back then, they also had a way bigger logistics problem to solve because it was half way across the world. Niger wasn't a full scale war. And maybe you're right, maybe we could do some kinda insurgency or gorilla warfare. But that doesn't exactly sound like a walk in the park either. Also, canadians are soft. We live in a first world country completely removed from any kind of war or suffering. We aren't going to fight back unless they give us a reason to. If it's bloodless and our lives don't change much, it's more then likely we will have wounded pride but will just go back to normal. I'm sure some will fight, but I don't think those types are common here. We are more like Americans than we want to admit. Fat, lazy, complacent, and stupid.

We have 1/10th your population and economy. We have a tiny military in comparison with outdated technology. It would be laughably easy for you to take us over. Yeah, maybe the rest of the world joins in, or maybe they just let it happen. You guys are the preeminent military force on earth. I could see it happening without any resistance from our allies. I bet that it woudl lead to the collapse of nato. In fact, I bet it ends the way that putin had hoped for Ukraine. Even an under ground resistance would be weak since you guys are right next door. The logistics of a full scale invasion would be simple for your guys. Honestly at this point i don't think there is a lot preventing it from happening. Trump has made it clear he isn't going to follow the law. He has also made it clear that he is willing to do extreme things. At this point I think it's a matter of what is easiest for him. Collapse us economically so we join willingly or a military invasion. I think the reason he picked the first is because it's easier.

Look up curtis yarvin, Peter thiel, Marc andreeson. They along with jd Vance and elo musk all subscribe to a similar ideology which I think is what is in store for you guys. I'm hoping it doesn't reach us here, but I'm pretty sure it will since it's almost a guarantee that we will be annexed. Looking at moving to another continent but I don't know which one is actually safe anymore. Maybe Australia?

But would they? I'm sure they'd disagree but I don't think they're gonna rise up and try to fight against the military. We'd get steam rolled and the world would just sit and watch. Sure they'd be mad, but in the end, the us military is #1 without any actual competitors other than China who is fixated on Taiwan and at the same time hates us anyway.
