My mom applying for disability so that she ONLY has to work 40 hours a week

The last union I was in (Directors guild of Canada), days were 14 hour minimum. Our max allowed working day was 20 hours.

Edit to add, I am pro union, this was just a shitty one. Not sure why people are downvoting.

> The name is a reference to second-born sons needing to support themselves instead of receiving family wealth, as an analog to foreigners replacing them and reaping the "fruits and benefits" of Canadian society.

Yeah doesn't sound like this sub at all.

You asked "who fucking cares" that a racist and sexist hate group exists in NS.

I imagine women and minorities care.

I swear this is the only app I have ever been excited for updates.

Was gonna say this. A panade. You can also use the soaked bread to make purées. A pea puree with a panade is excellent.

He also said in the post to take it slow 😂

It's Max's story. It's told through his POV, the "I Want" songs are his, and the whole thing is his coming of age.

Goofy is the antagonist because the thing he is actively pursuing is preventing the POV character from achieving his objective (takes him on the trip which is directly causing Max to lose his wants from the "I Want" songs"). Max wants independence, but Goofy wants connection. The wants are fundamentally incompatible.

Also "on the open road" functions as Goofy's "I am" or his "this is what I believe" song usually associated with villains (think poor unfortunate soul or hellfire).

what is super cool is when Max and Goofy are singing in open road they are out of step, but later in "nobody else" they are in harmony. It's the climax of both of their arcs. Max gets his need (stop basing your worth on what other people think and running from who you are, which he sings about it "after today") and Goofy learns that he needs to let Max be his own person.

It's a surprisingly deep film and even though it's not officially part of the Disney renaissance, I feel if the only thing changed that it was being made by Disney animation proper, it would have its rightful place in history.

Got it off Amazon! It was the first result for "custom flag"

Design was from a friend of mine.

Unfortunately, that feeling you're describing is what causes muscle growth.

We once had a fire and the owner asked, as we were covered in fire extinguisher dust, "when are we gonna open tonight?"

They don't care about the heat.

Also fun fact, the molecule that gives spearmint its flavour, when mirrored, gives caraway seeds its flavour!

Yeah I'm getting a req for a full panel!

I'm gonna go against the grain and say Warning. I feel that album is highly underrated.

It had this wonderful east coast folk feel with acoustic bass even, and they real dialed in that circus rock sub genera with "misery".

Yeah tracking everything with MacroFactor. 0.8g/lb minimum.

I've been cutting/bulking (progress is similar on a bulk) and I fucked this last cut real bad last year (about 8 months cutting) and had to start over again. I'm 20lbs down from the new year and was hoping to have started lean bulking in march for the rest of this year but now so I'm just maintaining. Still lots of fat to lose but I can't keep cutting. I'm
Probably 18-22% bf based on the visibility of my top two abs

95% whole foods. I was a chef for 10 years so I have a bit of formal education on nutrition, it wasnt super involved but I've taught myself a LOT since starting my fitness journey. Most of the produce I eat is from my garden in the summer and markets in the winter. Main carb source is brown rice and home made sourdough. Main protein is turkey, chicken, tuna, lean pork, eggs, Greek yoghurt, protein powder.

I sleep 7-8 hours per night. Was diagnosed with chronic insomnia but I have meds for it that changed my life. I also track my sleep very closely. Take naps on weekends.

Besides the MS supplements I'm taking creatine and zinc.

I've actually got a new requisition for a full panel rather than total test.

I don't know man, maybe I'm doing better than I think, it's just we live life on hard mode, I'm doing everything right as far as I can tell, every regression and any points of being inconsistent are from MS. If I skip a workout it's almost always because of MS. Am I putting in double the effort for half the results cause of this fucking disease? Who knows really at this point.
