lemmy.today is a great instance
No more coffee but plenty of PRIME™ for all!
There are portable washing machines that hook to a kitchen tap and drain to the sink, had one when renting a place with no laundry on-site and just hung dry everything. So much better than going to a laundromat weekly, and paid for itself too.
I had a friend come back from a work trip to Saskatchewan talking about how the skeevy strip club in town had the “toonie toss”. I don’t remember too much of the story except that they also didn’t have booze
How many of you were hit with mallets last week?
The price of rakes and yard vacuums would skyrocket. City parks would be fenced off and guarded by armed militia the way natural diamond deposits are.

When I saw the commercial for this movie all I could think of was that King of the Hill episode where Peggy tries selling houses by staging cheesy family plays about the house
probably watch it on PBS Detroit and will be checking out the Daily Show live episode whenever it comes out on youtube.
There’s been a Toronto area bike store chain called The Cyclepath for forever, pretty good name
The B is for Bargain!
I think I once saw a documentary about this, where the introduction featured an average Toyota Corolla driver on their way to work… moving slower than a geriatric using a walker.
