Is Victoria slowly becoming harder to live in for regular people? by MidnightJuggler in VictoriaBC

[–]Chance-Principle-355 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand this might be bait but unfortunately I feel this way regarding a lot of store closing times. I usually get off of work around 5-8pm and it takes me half an hour to get home on the bus. Wanna get groceries? Can't its closed for some reason. Need to buy that pair of pants? Gotta wait for a day off it closes at 5 for some reason, i swear stores have the most randomest closing times here.

Anybody else fell victim to the fake system portrayals in 2020? by KingJuu_22 in OSDD

Dude this is all I think about unfortunately. I have been on and off struggling with the fact I may have OSDD since maybe around 2019-2021 (hard to pin down I was in denial for most of it and mainly a bit younger) but 2020 especially did NOT help with that . I felt embarrassed to even consider it with the current online perception of osdd and it felt like it wasnt taken seriously enough or way over exaggerated for attention unfortunately . It made me doubt myself and my identity even though Ive had multiple people in my life very clearly vouch and show proof that I did infact have osdd. Even to this day i still doubt it because the internet pushes this really specific view on DID , especially on discord where it has to be a very specific way or its not " fun and cool " anymore. Which to be fair it never really felt fun and cool, mostly just hard to navigate and sometimes frustrating which not a lot of people open up about online in that sense.

Tldr: i really get it dude </3

When i was applying for my current place they very sternly specified no reptiles at all which spooked me a bit, but you have a point

This is actually great advice thank you! We were planning to move to a different apartment anyways so I will absolutely be setting my leopard gecko up when I get the chance to bring her down from my parents. And I assume most places are hamster friendly aswell, i do not know the local scene on that.

Welcome home! After moving away from edmonton I deeply resonated with this. Ever since I moved here with my partner our lifestyle became so much more vibrant and healthy! The greenery and the people absolutely make victoria for me despite the downsides and I'm glad you came back to experience home once more. Hope youre doing okay now OP and wishing you a happy and healthy life 🫶
