Umm one minor correction, Lula didn't lose to Bolsonaro. He served 2 full terms. His successor Dilma Rousseff was impeached from office after during her term due to corruption. The VP took over and he was defeated by Bolso. The end of Lula's (2010) and start of Bolso's (2019) terms were almost a decade apart.

Yep, just paid $27 at Whole Foods for 400g of rib eye. I think Costco runs about $25 for 600g of rib eye.

Looking for places to get away once or twice in the winter when it's wet and rainy here. Ideally somewhere tropic but I just wanna wfh somewhere warmer and nicer weather.
Budget is around $2,000 - 3,000 all-in for ideally 4 to 7 nights or longer for two peeps. Could make this 4 to 6 peeps if it's more economical.
Any suggestions?

Ask your neighbours for suggestions.
About 8 years ago I visited and spent only $2300 flights included.

Bruh, get a work holiday visa and just dip out of Vancouver completely for winter
That's what I'm doing at least...

Good question, actually I was pretty oblivious to the specifics just because dying in this manner sounded so bizarre. But I did some digging and found this...
Really good post about this topic:

Around the 3/4 mark of the video, you can actually see how people really do look like they're all just floating together like one fluid. Looks insane being able to see it from an outside perspective.

In 2015, there was this story of over 2000 people crushed to death at the Hajj, Meca during the pilgrimage.

India wouldn't make much sense for a 4-7 night trip. You'll be on a plane a third of the trip there.
I'd suggest popping down to Mexico or Hawaii if you're going for such a short duration. Puerto Vallarta is a quick 6 hour flight, Cabo/La Paz similar.
Hawaii -- same thing, quick 5 hour flight.
Unless you're going for a minimum of 2 weeks, I'd never bother considering anything in Asia, not worth the time sitting on a plane both ways.

VPD posted pictures on their website of ten suspects who destroyed property at PNE during the Breakout Festival riot.
https://vpd.ca/top-10/
You get additional pics of each idiot when you click on any of the ten pictures on their site. A brief description of the crime that each idiot committed at the PNE.
Example:
https://vpd.ca/top-10/#suspect-2
Suspect #2
This suspect threw a metal table and garbage can, kicked and threw objects at the refrigerators, and used bodily force to cause a tent to collapse.

Kind of reminds me of the way that they tracked down Canucks rioters ... crowd sourcing.

isn't "taking off your shirt" akin to a lady about to throw down taking off her ear rings?
i can't tell if it's poor quality video, or if poor ink job, but his tats all look like eraser smudges
he didn't really want that smoke, guys turn there back to him and he didn't do anything.

I'll never understand white dudes who carry themselves like that in foreign countries.
Look around you guy, no one looks like you, guess who everyone is going to jump on if a fight pops off? You.
I've seen that happen so many times in places like Thailand or Philippines (Thailand in particular). Drunk white dude starts a fight with a random Thai over money or some shit, suddenly he's getting shit kicked by 10 dudes/women.
It's hilarious to watch.
If you're a foreigner in a spot surrounded by locals, take your L and move the fuck on.
