When customers walked into Edeka supermarket in Hamburg recently, they were surprised to find that the shelves were almost empty, and the small handful of products that remained were all made in Germany. It seemed like the supermarket had simply forgotten to restock their produce until customers saw the mysterious signs left around the shop. “So empty is a shelf without foreigners,” read one sign at the cheese counter. “This shelf is quite boring without variety,” read another.

I asked him if he was going to the Pride parade n hes like “The priiide paraaade?” Yeah its like thousands of people its huge. And he did THE owen wilson “Whaow” and it changed my life.

Last time he was in he was sad we had no green juice left but before he left i was like dam i dont want him 2 leave all sad n dehydrated so i was like ?? We have this weird ass black charcoal chia seed lemonade that looks like an evil frogspawn potion, n owen wilson seems like he’d be into sum weird shit so i was like hey wait you wanna try this??

And hes like “whaow…what is thaat” before i can even list the ingredients hes just picked it up n taken the lid off and drank half of it in one go and he stops n stares at me for a beat and just says super monotone “I like it.”

Twitter has a 140 character limit, yet I still found a way to tell one of the longest and most obnoxious knock-knock jokes of all time within a single tweet.

1. Justin Trudeau has promised to end boil water advisories in First Nations communities. The government says it will end all boil water advisories by 2021, but current progress has been slow:

Canada says it can solve the drinking water crisis on First Nations by 2021

I’m somewhat skeptical they will make that target, considering that new advisories keep popping up even as the government ends some of them.

2. The body that has found the Government of Canada guilty of racially discriminating against Indigenous Children’s child welfare, is the Human Rights Tribunal, not the Supreme Court of Canada (but this case did go through the Supreme Court).

I’m all for pressuring Trudeau to do the right thing. I spent a lot of my free time trying to convince the Liberals to comply with things like the Human Rights Commission, backtrack on oil pipeline approvals, take greater action on Climate Change, etc. I’d be perfectly happy with Trudeau remaining in power for a long time if he kept his promises and listened to the public on these very important issues. But he has not done that.

If push comes to shove and Trudeau doesn’t change his mind on these significant issues, I’m sorry but him and his party are not entitled to power just because the Conservatives are worse. Its borderline gaslighting to say we should stick with an incompetent, faux-progressive, centrist government when there is a more progressive alternative. Vote splitting is an excuse. It is possible to unite a far greater number of voters for an alternative to the Liberals that isn’t the Conservatives. The Conservatives only got about 30% of the vote last election. Even with vote splitting there is a lot of room to grow a movement for a an alternative to the status quo. This isn’t the USA where there is no option C. You do have to pick between either the Democrats or the Republicans.
