@TonyStark

Am I misunderstanding something? Since when are non-citizens allowed to vote in US elections? Is this theatrics?

H.R. 192: To prohibit individuals who are not citizens of the United States from voting in elections in the District of Columbia.

Greg Sargent 🧵 1/…

Media coverage of Republicans stampeding to NYC to attack Trump's trial as illegit is marred by euphemism. This isn't just "currying favor" w Trump or "expressing loyalty" or auditioning to be his VP. It's placing Trump over rule of law

Rs are attacking judge, witnesses, prosecutors & trial as illegitimate. This isn't just helping Trump evade the gag order. The point is also to display in spectacle form that their fealty is to him over the rules that make the system function

What I find most disgusting is all the people who knew Diddy was abusing Cassie and others and kept their mouths shut because of money. I have no respect for that shit. It’s INDEFENSIBLE.

Damn. Award-winning actor Dabney Coleman -- who starred in hit movies such as Melvin and Howard, 9 to 5, On Golden Pond, and Tootsie -- has reportedly passed away at the age of 92.

He won an Emmy in 1987 for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Miniseries or a Special for his role Sworn to Silence, but was nominated six times. He also won a Golden Globe Award. https://local12.com/news/entertainment/report-actor-dabney-coleman-passes-away-dead-death-age-92-melvin-howard-on-golden-pond-tootsie-movies-film-television-emmy-award

As a result of the zoning order, Toronto city council will no longer be able to weigh in on technical elements of the project as it does on other buildings that go through the local planning process.

😲 🤦 Canadian Renters Now Required To Collect Foreign Landlord’s Taxes, Withhold Rent

" In a bizarre decision, the nation’s tax authority is telling tenants who pay rent to non-resident landlords to withhold a portion and remit it on their behalf, or they may be liable for the amount with penalties. To complicate things further, one Ontario policymaker warns tenants that have inquired about withholding have been threatened with eviction. "

Our country has lost it's mind!! ⬆️ Another WTF moment!!

So, if you can't find out if your landlord is "foreign" you are screwed. Read this article please.

@GottaLaff I think you might want to look at this....!!!!

@GottaLaff
This morning I posted the article on the lower link (betterdwellling...)
Originally, here was an issue with the CRA demanding payment from tenants for unpaid landlords' taxes....complicated problem. See the lower link on the post if you need clarification.

Later today the CRA changed that rule so I edited my post to reflect it.

In other words...ignore the post. 🤦 Sorry.🤷‍♀️

Solution to Food Waste

.. launched by students to save groceries from the landfill. They’re helping to cut food bills & climate emissions.

"a lot of produce doesn’t make it to grocery store shelves when fruits and vegetables are considered to be misshapen, not the right size or slightly damaged.
.... the problem of oversupply, when too much of one food item is grown or distributed and doesn’t match market demand"- it is dumped!!
