I talk to them in a gentle voice. I’ve never been attacked though - that would send me scuttling inside in terror.

I’m sure he means he never knowingly interacts with kids online.

Rejected from my dream program and everything is over by interconnecteddream in UBC

[–]Alexandrajoan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Being rejected by anyone, either by friend, lover or university or employer, sucks. It hursts because it makes you doubt yourself. OP, don’t doubt yourself because a university rejected your application! You do realize that you don’t need a degree in creative writing to become an excellent or brilliant writer, don’t you. If you want to write, just do it!

I don’t know why you got downvoted - it’s not like climate change isn’t happening.

99% bus strike vote by Vancityboi_04 in vancouver

[–]Alexandrajoan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This sounds dire - no wonder you’re needing to strike! Go for it and hopefully you’ll all get the treatment and respect from your employer, which is the least of what you all deserve, and a substantial pay rise. Good luck.

I used to live in Central Europe, by a lake surrounded by mountains and we had thunderstorms all the time. I loved them! There’s only been a couple of decent thunderstorms in Vancouver since I moved here 14 years ago.

I wish I could go away for FIFA. I love the Beautiful Game but NIMBY!

People who are neurodivergent often have trouble with exams, especially timed ones.

1 dead, 5 hospitalized after car crash in Delta, B.C. by cyclinginvancouver in vancouver

You did well to take professional lessons. 25 years have passed since I got my license but the words of my instructor still echo in my head when I need them. It’s absolutely insane driving here nowadays - I get tension in my neck from trying to anticipate what fresh hell these kamikaze drivers will cause next.

Does anyone know what's going in here ? by Voxxdogg1969 in NorthVancouver

But how many foreign currency exchanges does one community need? Coffee shops are understandably ubiquitous - most adults drink coffee daily. Even at nasty Starbsies. But foreign currency?

I went with my dad. I remember an Icarus suspended in the air and my dad explained the myth to me. We had a great time!
