From 1973 to 2022, Canada and Denmark were at war.
Over the course of the war, several soldiers on both sides were wounded....by hangovers. And it was all fought over a tiny island the size of a city block.
Let's learn about The Whisky War!

@cusm_muhc I’m sure them making me walk back at fort from the gates to the parking desk and back just to get this anonymous email to voice my concerns will be worth it. And then gouging me for the parking fee anyway - because i didn’t want to make people get home even later.
@cusm_muhc Frustratingly I got charged for my parking and the privilege of waiting a half an hour to exit the parking lot in my car. I want to believe the 6.50$ i paid is going directly towards better services and care, but the attitude of parking staff was not reassuring.
@cusm_muhc Good afternoon MUHC!!! Just left an appointment at the RVH. Had to wait a while but it was worth it, the doctor was great! Left the building and tried to leave at 15:35 before my 15:50 parking ran out… Only to get stuck in a car lineup and make it to the exit at 16:15
In 2017, I paid Cards Against Humanity to protect a pristine plot of border land from Trump’s racist wall. But then an even richer, more racist billionaire—Elon Musk—stole my land and dumped his shit all over it. @ElonMusk owes me $100. #ElonOwesMe100Bucks https://t.co/2rplkHxbhv
Trump will be remembered in history for giving the internet such an amazing gift…
It will be an even bigger gift to Harris and America in general though.

The original Michelin Man from 1894.
He was is white because rubber tires are naturally white. It was not until 1912 that carbon chemicals were mixed into the white tires, which turned them black. The change was structural, not aesthetic. By adding carbon, tires became more durable.
Michelin also began reviewing restaurants so that more people would travel further distances in their cars to eat at these restaurants. This, in turn, would wear down their tires faster and force them to buy more.
The star system that Michelin uses goes up to three and is broken down by whether or not it's worth driving to the restaurant:
One star: "A very good restaurant in its category" (Une très bonne table dans sa catégorie)
Two stars: "Excellent cooking, worth a detour" (Table excellente, mérite un détour)
Three stars: "Exceptional cuisine, worth a special journey" (Une des meilleures tables, vaut le voyage).
