People got mad about those being built here and burned a bunch down out of spite. They expect us to believe that the unhoused people burned them down but I just can’t believe that someone with no home would intentionally burn down the only shelter they had. And if they did burn them down, why haven’t they burned down the two shelters that are always full?
I need to get my hair done but I’m too anxious to be confrontational in almost any way so I usually have to awkwardly nod and agree during the appointment because I’m also too anxious for conversation. Being able to make that choice without having to feel like I’m an asshole would help.
In all my time living in Alberta (34 years, but not anymore thankfully) I never met an Albertan who wasn’t happy to shit on Quebec for being separatist.
I am a little excited to not have to change our clocks back come November. I know experts say we should have stayed on Standard time and I probably would have preferred that, but I don’t think it’s going to make more of a difference than the torture of changing our clocks and fucking up our sleep twice a year. We can work around excess daylight, we can’t work around screwing up the timing of our body processes. It would be foolish of the other provinces to not follow suit.
I have always been a little bit jealous of people who can be sold on religion. It must be nice to have the comfort that comes with it, especially if you’re the type to ignore all the rules and think that you’re going to the good place just because you had faith.
I am not scared of dying exactly, I’m afraid that something might come after when I just want to sleep. What if a religion got it right? Good place or bad, I’m not down with that. I want finality in my end.
Depends on there she’s laying. If she gets up on a table and does this she will absolutely bite, if she does this at my feet of laying next to me she wants very slow, gentle belly rubs starting from her chest and only going about 2/3 of the way down her belly. I lost track of how many tries it took to get it right.
As a millenial I grew up on the internet and I watched my own children navigate an ever evolving internet, especially social media. My home did not allow social media before 16 as I agree there is an age limit. The problem is how do we verify this? Requiring ID for anything on the internet is a slippery slope that politicians seem all too happy to throw us down.
Anyone who thinks the liberals are anything further left than centre needs to open their eyes. Cuts, reductions, however you want to frame the loss of funds doesn’t matter - what matters is the CBC is the only defense we have against the encroaching American media force. Even a lot of the small town newspapers are owned by American corporations. Stop giving the rich handouts, stop pandering to Trump, and fund our fucking country already.
Exactly, so municipalities already had this ability. Basically they’re only making it known that no municipality is obligated to fall in line. Logically there’s no reason that anyone would choose to stay with the time change though, especially if Alberta is considering dropping it too.
I’m the kind of person who is very particular about the music I listen to, the wrong music is over stimulating - so I love streaming in that I can curate my playlist and have new music recommended to me based on what I like. I honestly don’t know how I would find new artists if it wasn’t for streaming - not like there’s an indie folk radio station I can just listen to…
I feel bad that the artists don’t get paid much though and I was considering switching to buying albums again, but I think that might make it so I support a few artists more but a lot of artists I like would consequently be supported less.
Ok, but technically they’ve always been able to haven’t they? There are already a handful of communities that don’t do daylight savings. So why would that change? It doesn’t necessarily mean that we’re going to be dotted with communities that still change their time.
I’m so excited for this. Even working from home I hate changing time cause it still messes with my sleep schedule and my cats feeding schedule.
If I were to judge him solely on his looks and nothing else I know about him, the before is way better looking. His unique smile and deceptively kind eyes are way more attractive than…whatever that is he did.
Maybe that’s why everything seems to be burning down around me. I’m just a dragon.
It’s almost as if homes shouldn’t be a commodity.
She, Canadian, and not from TV. Most of my growing up we didn’t have TV. I just didn’t want to make other people the way people made me feel.
By knowing how shitty it felt to be treated badly and not wanting to make others feel that way, unfortunately.
My goodness do we ever need this in BC
I’m pretty sure I’m a decent person and I’ve never had a support network. Kind of had the opposite, really but at very least I try to be a good person and I feel remorse when I fail.
You are lucky tbh. So many “local” newspapers are owned by giant corporations. Here in Canada we even have a boatload that are owned by those same American corporations. I helps push narratives among people who are more likely to be isolated or disenfranchised and it works really well.
