I’m going to try my hand at making soap. I’m setting up different social media accounts to document it. I’m going to try turning it into a business. Will try to remember to make updates.

Why the federal government should enforce anti-discrimination rules for the bar. Access to justice is a public good - Lawyers affect liberty, property, and rights. - If entry is gated by cost, geography, or private tests (LSAT/law school), the public suffers from fewer competent lawyers and inequitable legal representation Merit + trust is sufficient for competence - High school diploma (basic literacy), passing a background/ethics check, and passing a standardized bar exam is enough to ensure minimum legal competence. - Extra barriers mainly protect private interests (law schools, LSAC) rather than the public. Current system discriminates against the poor and rural - Expensive tuition, tech requirements, and elite-school pipelines disproportionately exclude low-income applicants. - The result: the legal profession favors the wealthy, perpetuating inequality. What a merit-based model would look like Requirements: - High school diploma or GED - Background/character check - Standardized bar exam Effects: - Equal opportunity for anyone competent - Floods the market with lawyers → cheaper legal services - Reduces dependency on private gatekeepers How evil is the current status quo? - Artificial scarcity: LSAT + law school + bar = high-cost barrier - Wealth-based access: Only those with money or elite networks can realistically become lawyers - Public harm: Poor people and rural communities get less access to competent lawyers - Symbolic “competence” filter: Doesn’t prevent bad lawyers — incompetent or unethical lawyers exist anyway via public attorneys - Market distortion: Drives up fees, protects law schools and elite firms, concentrates legal power in wealthy hands In short: the current system is expensive, exclusionary, and partially symbolic, while failing to actually guarantee competence. It’s designed to protect privilege over the public, which makes it “evil” from a justice perspective.

Hey. I am new here, thanks for approving me. I've got a hell of a life story and I plan on writing a biography, mostly for my family to understand why I made the decisions I am about to make. Tho gs are about to get real and the death cult genocide is on our doorstep. I find it hilarious how the left calls us nazis but who's grabbing the guns? Because Hitler did it right before the war. I could go on and on about that also, but for now I will get to the point. The Canadian gun grab is on our doorstep. They have deemed ALL semi-automatic guns to he "assault style weapons". As of Jan 26, they have removed all restricted firearms from our licensing and permits portal. This all just happened on the 26th of January. So here I am needing to apply for a permit to transport them, and it's all gone. I discovered this on Friday, now it's Sunday and my lease on my apartment is definitely over, and I had to drive 7 hours north to get to my parents place. There's supposed to be an amnesty period where we are allowed to call the police and have them buy our guns back, and after that is over, we have a 6 month grace period, and after that if you are caught with any sort of semi automatic weapon, your ass is going to prison. And make no mistake, the government is going to want to make examples of everyone they can to strike the fear of God in the hearts of the holdouts. Well, I had no choice. I had to move and bring them with me. Can't store them. Can't transport them. Every single thing I do with them as of 5 days ago makes me a criminal. So colour me guilty. Now, before you go pouncing on me and calling me a dumb cuck Canadian, here are some points to shut you up: - Your country is no better - Our elections are just as rigged as yours - The vast majority of Canadians are fed up with all the gay shit being forced down our throats - The liberal government has installed themselves as supreme overlords of Canada for the rest of time - The US military is the backing every western country has to ensure that conservatism is crushed at every turn. Want to fight your government? Better be prepared to shoot down F35s and launch nukes at the aircraft carriers - I didn't get to choose where I was born and to who

Ugh here we go again. Fuck this country
