Personally I'm glad Ontario wasn't so misguided as to try to define what is or isn't "essential" for big box stores like Walmart to sell. If someone is stuck at home literally for weeks and unable to go out, who's to say a new TV or game console isn't essential (if only for one's sanity) if theirs breaks down?

Although fortunately, Ontario's daily cases and positivity rate has been on a steady decline for the past week or so; if they can get the vaccinations back on track, there is some hope.

And as far as Canada's lockdowns go, I'm guessing none of them will end until late March, or perhaps the beginning of April. What small businesses that might be left at that point will be allowed to open for their going out of business sales.

Unfortunately the CEO of Target Canada made more money by running the company into the ground than he ever would have had he made it a success, so there was zero incentive to succeed.

Target made some serious mistakes when they came into Canada. They focused on opening like 150+ stores within a 2 year timeframe and had no online infrastructure whatsoever; their website literally only contained legal blurbs and a store locator... lacking even the ability to see what they sold in stores, or if it was in stock and, if so, where. They should have started with 1/3 the number of stores with a full online experience including online shopping and inventory checking

See; quebec is under a new lockdown, have been since the 26th. It's supposed to end the 8th of february, but probably won't. Stores are only supposed to sell necessities (in deference to the stores which are closed.), but the quebec government made no effort define what counts as a "necessity", only punished them for getting it wrong. So I can buy all the candy I want, but not underwear, boots, winterwear, small appliances. Hell, my brother had to explain why he wanted a FUSE when he needed to fix his stove shortly before new years.

Targets don't exist in canada anymore. They lasted like 3 years before abandoning the market. But even if they WERE still here: they would be under the same poorly defined restrictions as walmart.

Target's better-

HA! my walmarts can't even sell underwear. There's no clearances going on up here.

Check your Walmarts: Post-Christmas clearances are going on and I snagged Need For Speed Hot Pursuit Remastered for Switch for only $5 (YMMV)

*walks out on stage* Umm, I don't know how to tell everyone this, but Conway Twitty's been dead for nearly 30 years, now. So...*dances awkwardly as distraction*

uh oh we need a distraction, ladies and gentlemen Conway Twitty.

*screaming internally*

Everything is f i n e

Everything's okay until it isn't. That's life.

Oh my god... I forgot entirely about yellowstone.

Until the third civil war. Or yellowstone, whatever's good.

That's not true. An adult man is in control of the White House now.

Everything's out of control.

*cough* w h a t?

Cause your friends don't dance, and if they don't dance they ain't no friends of mine

You could leave your friends behind.

You could if you really wanted to.

......... all wounds heal through God. *walks off*

Let me know when the WEAPONs wake up.

Or is the wound the Earth healing.

Healing is just destroying the wound

But eventually destroys everything.

Heals many wounds

Time.

I dunno, maybe. I'm not clairvoyant either...

Covid?

At this point, if I'm going to die then it won't be the wait what killed me. It didn't help any, mind you, but it's not what got me.

Technically we are all literally dying to play with our next figure.

I am figuratively dying to play with that cheetor.

Still waiting for my box from BBTS to arrive.

Kingdoms is fantabulous and it's only the first wave.

My Super Collection Megatron always had two left legs and I just discovered my Thrilling 30 Crosscut has two right hips.

Fortunately, it's only Netflix Hound, so not really much of a loss here.

So it's been a while since I've had a misassembled Transformers toy.

More Micromasters would be welcome.

Instructions unclear, have more sports cars.

Or they could make the other Micromasters of the teams they half assed.

There should be a box set of eight Stakeouts.

There should be a box-set of Thrust, Dirge and Ramjet. But I'm not expecting it.

I hope there are re-releases this year!

I hope there's rereleases of Earthrise Ramjet, Dirge and Ratchet next year.

Oh no, he was loved. I'd argue he could have had a better life physically, but he was loved. Deeply.

as long s/he gave love and was loved, it was a good life
