we just need to normalize saying the whole thing.

"The customer is always right in matters of taste."
"The customer is always right in matters of taste."
"The customer is always right in matters of taste."

The customer is certainly not right if they're assaulting someone.

    So someone on his team recently watched the TV miniseries "Thief" (starring Andre Braugher, RIP) and figured they'd give it a try.

    These fuckers have no imagination. First they rip off season 2 of Jack Ryan, and now this.

    their own website describes themselves thus: "The Canadian Taxpayers Federation is a federally incorporated, not-for-profit citizen’s group dedicated to lower taxes, less waste and accountable government."

    Google's AI vomited up a description involving the words "a real, legally incorporated non-profit advocacy organization, but critics and journalists debate its claim of being strictly "non-partisan".

    Actual reality indicates they're a right-wing think tank that masquerades as non-partisan, rallying against any government spending that doesn't directly benefit petroleum producers or big business interests, and suspiciously staying silent on a 75 million dollar boondoggle involving business people closely related to members of the Alberta provincial government. https://www.nationalobserver.com/2023/11/25/opinion/canadian-taxpayer-federation-convenient-double-standard

    So much for their policy of "accountable government."

    Hey there Lemmy.world ! I'm in a band called The Three Leonards. We cover pop songs in a jazzy style that might remind you of artists like Leonard Cohen, Nick Cave, or Tom Waits. We have two full albums of songs, streaming everywhere:

    and a YT channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCVvcGe1tlxijGPV-kEJ_xpg

     

    Hello Lemmy.world! I'm a member of The Three Leonards. We do covers of pop songs in a playful jazzy style which might remind you of artists like Leonard Cohen, or Nick Cave, or Tom Waits. We might even remind you of that one time you tried mushrooms with those degens from upcountry. We're not here to judge: life is just like that sometimes. You do you. And while you do you, whether you're on mushrooms or not, you should listen to our music. Because it's fun. And because you've probably never asked yourself: "What would it sound like if Leonard Cohen did a cover of Toxic by Britney Spears?" And now you don't have to ask yourself. It's right there.

    Feel the groove. Feel the love. Feel The Len.

     

    Morning everyone. Here's the most recent release from our ongoing music project The Three Leonards. We re-imagine pop songs in a LeonardCohen-esque style.

    Have a listen and tell me what you think. We know it's not everyone's cup of tea, but some people really like tea. Remember your first cup of tea? I sure do.

    We also released an entire album last year, which I can link in the comments here because this place doesn't have a gigantic stick up it's arse. https://open.spotify.com/album/5RwGC1qOeAQvIENh9X353F

    Have an awesome day, Internet. You deserve one. Maybe our music can be a part of it.
