Been meaning to ask, but I keep forgetting. Who is the wolf / cyotote in the cartoon? For the life of me, that's the only one I can't figure out.

Didn't know she was a fan of Moccasins lol.

Right! The hat does say ITA, although the colours seem wrong. The green stripes on that hat just don't look green to me, and I didn't know the unofficial animal symbol of Italy is a wolf until you pointed the country out being Italy...

What the ffffffuuuuuuucccckkkk :lol

I can't believe this is real. God damn this is wild in 2021.

Imagine the pathogens and viruses these guys are exposing themselves to, they're essentially eating cow shit.

CivicBlues 06-16-2021 11:47 AM

Yeah I know of a few FOB Chinese and even Filipino people here that refuse to try Indian food because they think it's "dirty".

Their loss, more for me!

Yeah the origin story of Rome literally involves 2 babies, Romulus and Remus being raised by a wolf (Yes, Star Trek stole this)

Cow shit is actually really clean. Dried and used as a cooking fuel.

underscore 06-16-2021 10:53 PM

Maybe when dried properly or something, because cow shit definitely caused a lot of problems in Walkerton and after a Tough Mudder event that was in cow fields.

As gross as it is you don't really hear of many pandemics originating from India especially given their large population and lack of hygiene in urban areas. Probably because they eat much less meat.

Could have to do with the cows diet. In India cow dung is made into paddies and slapped against an outside wall and let dry naturally.

It’s because it’s dried. Same way preserved food being void of moisture doesn’t provide an environment for bacteria to thrive.
Fresh cow shit is bad for you no matter what the cow eats lol.

Thread about Canadian Politics devolves into a conversation about Cow shit.

How apt.

Fullshit..........

That's what my father kept saying. I told him, "Dad, it's Bullshit." He looked at me with a poker face, paused, then said fullshit. Ever since then, it's been fullshit.

Makes sense to me.

Our Armed Forces is in such disarray! So much hiding of sh*t. And Manic! .. .no need to bring up how the Conservatives would do a lot worst, not everything is about Libs vs. Cons ... you can prefer Libs and still critique their shortcomings.

MPs vote to censure Sajjan over handling of sexual misconduct in the Armed Forces

Sajjan showed himself as dishonest within months of his appointment. Not sure why he is still in this position. I guess a terrible politician doesn’t still mean they aren’t the best option when you look at the other options. It’s not a good look regardless.

I don't really think China cares about the Indigenous people of Canada but ... shrewd tactical move.


China hits back at Canada, calls for UN investigation into crimes against Indigenous people

https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/chi...hurs-1.6075025

"We are deeply concerned about the serious human rights violations against the Indigenous people in Canada. Historically, Canada robbed the Indigenous people of the land, killed them and eradicated their culture," said Jiang Duan, a senior official at China's mission to the UN in Geneva.

"We call for a thorough and impartial investigation into all cases where crimes were committed against Indigenous people, especially the children," Jiang said, citing the preliminary discovery last month of what are thought to be the unmarked burial sites of children's remains adjacent to the former Kamloops residential school.

Traum 06-22-2021 09:43 AM

Communist China can go fxxk themselves.

China's BS complaint also highlights how utterly useless the UN and its various councils / sub-committees are. Nothing useful can ever get passed because of the voting structure. It is as much of a gong show as the Star Wars Republic Senate.

Did you see the list of countries who voted in support of this motion? Its a who's who of human rights champions /s (i.e., Venezuela, Iran, North Korea, Russia, Belarus, and Syria)

To their credit, they are experts in the matter given that they're currently doing it. They're bringing some real world experience to the table here. :pokerface:
