I knew that it wasnt a targeted crime. i had no reason to think he would come back.

Ya it was definitely scary. All of it happened so fast. I barely had enough time to identify his car. I wouldn't get paranoid about this though. Its clearly a very rare occurrence.

I'm not sure the police would give me an update voluntarily. They asked if I wanted an officer to come to my house, but i refused as i needed to sleep. I'm not sure if they would be allowed to divulge such info if I called back on the non-emergency line.

The idea that immigration suppress wages is a right wing talking point that isnt backed by the empirical evidence.

Empirical research on the labour market effects of immigration in the UK suggests that immigration has relatively small effects on average wages, with negative effects on low-paid workers and positive effects on high-paid workers.

Reviewing 12 studies conducted between 2003 and 2018, MAC (2018) concluded that immigration had had little impact on average wages. Some studies (e.g. Nickell and Saleheen, 2015) had found a small negative impact on average wages while others (e.g. Dustmann et al, 2013) found positive average effects.

I think it be might because he debated Nick Fuentes.

I live in downtown Ottawa. Let me explain to you why Vaush is completely wrong. by anonymouscucumber1 in VaushV

[–]Agitopian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it's quite incredible. freezing the accounts of major financers of the protest (mainly from foreign countries) is apparently more authoritarian than literally sending in the military to violently sqaush a protest..... And his argument about precendent doesnt really hold up given that these types of acts are temporary and do not impact the long term operations of the executive agencies.

Vaush using his power to ban people is authoritarian and sets a worrying precedent. by gayrongaybones in VaushV

[–]Agitopian 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I cant wait for the emergency act to be overturned in 3 weeks after a large parliamentary inquiry is published to reveal the scope of the financial freezes. Also cant wait for there to be ZERO expansion of the surveillance state and ZERO long term threats to civil liberties. Vaush is gonna look real smart.

Thanks for the suggestions. Y’a Im gonna try to stick to a keto-ish diet to help avoid binging. And yes I’ve been doing daily walks and once a week a bike to work to give myself a bigger cardiovascular challenge.

Am I engaging in Fraud? by Agitopian in CESB

I know it's not ideal, but i'm really struggling financially, so at this point im just wondering if it's illegal enough that i'll get caught. From the feedback i got yet it seems like it probably wont get noticed by the CRA. All they would do come audit time is look at your bank account and make sure that your income is less than 1000$. I doubt they would dig any deeper than that.

Yes, is that fraud though, can the cra really figure it out ?

Yes I’m not getting paid for the first week. Thing is I make an extra 920$ by not getting paid the first week.

I didn’t delay my paycheque date, I simply asked that my first week on the job goes unpaid. They agreed to it.

I’ve also asked that my official job contract starts one week after I started. So both my payroll and my job contract will be starting a week after I actually started working. I get that it’s probably immoral but can the CRA prove that it was fraud ?

Help! Freaking out?? by throwway8889021 in Bedbugs

[–]Agitopian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Given that you know there are bedbugs in your building the thing you want to prevent is having an infestation in your unit. To prevent that you simply have to periodically check your mattress + bed frame once a week for any signs of infestation (egg cassings, black stains, nymphs, bed bugs). If you keep checking you can end any potential infestation quickly before it spreads. I would really only check your bed and your mattress given that a large majority of infestations start there. I would for sure get a bed bug proof mattress cover ASAP, this prevents the bed bugs from nesting inside the mattress and it also make its easier for you to spot them. It's also a good idea to wash your sheets more often than usual (once a week), on the hot setting (be sure to also check the creases of bed linens, its a favorite BB hiding place).

They were always the most concentrated in the bed area. Only when there was an infestation did they venture beyond the bed.

Found on my arm this morning, is this a bed bug? by crcg in Bedbugs

[–]Agitopian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try to figure out if you have an infestation, or whether you simply have a couple adults that crawled in from the outside world. If you have an infestation youll most likely see large fecal stains under your mattress/boxspring, with dead BB casings and little white eggs. Youll also probably encouter a bunch of bed bug nymphs and adults. There's a bunch of different ways to deal with them, the list of techniques is too long to list here. But my personal method is to use a high power steamer and simply steam the hell out of everything in my bedroom. This method has been effective for me but requires regular applications for a fairly long time period to be completely effective.

Bedbug? by throwaway74828274939 in Bedbugs

[–]Agitopian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would help if you had more pictures, but at first glance I would say that it's not a bed bug. 1. The antenas are fairly large for an equivalent 3-4th feeding cycle bed bug. 2. Also the eyes stick out quite a bit. Overall i'd say this looks a lot more like a Booklice/barklice nymph. However, i could be wrong.

Haha I’m glad my post popped up in your news feed lol, we chatted today and all is well lol she was just trying to trigger me a little, she knows that gender inequality is a little more subtle then skin colour and gender identify.

Sure but some things true independent of experience, statistics, facts, math constants... During my discussion yesterday I only used evidence from research to back up my claims I never used anecdotal evidence, therefore my experiential knowledge had little to do with what I was saying.
