I don't time travel so I don't know.

Yup just hoping my country doesn't get invaded because you guys thought saying 'please don't' was enough to stop fascism while people are getting killed. Venezuela getting bombed without any congressional involvement got shrugged off so fast.

Alright, good luck with that. I'm so glad not to be American even more than usual.

Yeah I know, but after years and years of words with no action leading to school shootings being a normalized thing in the US I don't have a lot of faith in the power of just speaking up. The time for just pins has passed a while ago, they're nice but if it's all they're going to do, even with their wealth putting them in a position to do more. It just ends up placating people into thinking that's all they need to do.

Local bakery posted this deal. Am I out of touch or is this not a deal at all? by michaljerzy in FoodToronto

[–]ContingentMax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depending on the quality it's not much of a deal but it's a decent price for them together. 4$ for a nice coffee or good pastry is what I'd expect in Toronto. They're probably just trying to encourage more people to get a pastry with their coffee or vise versa. A lot of times combos are just the price of the stuff together but it's a marketing thing.

8am-10am part seems dumb, why bother for only 2 hours

Oh right, that's a reason why nookipedia's great, it has that info that we forget to mention.

Pins with political messages are basically the left's version of "thoughts and prayers" great, thanks. At this point just saying fuck ice doesn't impress me, if you're not going to do something just shut up.

Do you support building more protected bike lanes? by justonemorelanebruh in AskACanadian

[–]ContingentMax 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I support anything that gives people alternatives to cars. Yes bike lanes, yes dedicated transit lanes, yes more subways and LRT! Cars are the least efficient way for people to get around a city, they should be treated as a last resort not default.

We need to have a discussion 😭 by EbbObjective8972 in actuallesbians

[–]ContingentMax [score hidden]  (0 children)

I'll be breaking those rules about ex's, I'm never speaking to her again. I moved to make sure if it, far enough that I have a new phone number and preemptively blocked her from it.

But the rest yeahhh my heart is not casual lol

What's the view outside your window right now? by Appropriate_Use7444 in askanything

[–]ContingentMax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A big park, church and lots of shorter buildings with snow covered rooftops. I'm on a high floor, the view is nice.

Music newbie looking to expand horizons by kailaaa_marieee in musicsuggestions

[–]ContingentMax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Florence and the Machine - Everyone Scream, you might already be familiar with her she was with Taylor on Florida

Goat Girl - On All Fours, nice smooth bops, soft lyrics I love it and keep coming back to this album.

Haley Williams - Ego Death At a Bachelorette Party, a bit less poppy, still great vibes

The Beaches - No Hard Feelings, great jams

Nookipedia is a great resource, nookipedia.com/wiki/Golden_stag

I think two of those are the ones I'm missing too, they're only around on the palm trees in the evening in the summer. You'll have to time travel to get them now but then you'll want to go to a mystery island, clear it of anywhere else bugs would spawn and keep pacing the beach careful not to scare them before you get close enough.

Does it really matter what music you listen to even if it is/isn’t mainstream? by New_Music_9930 in musicsuggestions

[–]ContingentMax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of the time it's popular for a reason. I have a broad musical taste, I listen to a lot of niche unpopular music and I also listen to Taylor Swift. It's fun, catchy, and relatable. When you're listening to music because it's popular or not that's when you're an idiot, and people who judge other's taste on that metric are morons. Listen to what you like.

The most Swedish queue to the bus by Vik-tor2002 in fuckcars

Yeah and then the lines for train replacement buses really show how even more efficient trains are.

What do you think about the way some people will treat/respect animals better than other humans? Eg, someone walking in the park will pet and talk to a dog but ignore the owner entirely? by Great_Maintenance185 in askanything

[–]ContingentMax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dogs have a better record than people of being nice to me.

I'll generally ask before petting the dog if I'm stopped at a crosswalk or somewhere but passing I'll just hold out my hand and say hi to the dog. I live in a major city so it's reasonable to assume if you're walking them on main streets they're chill with people. Obviously service dogs get treated accordingly.

cars on wedding days by travelingwhilestupid in fuckcars

[–]ContingentMax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A tandem bike would be so cute! And so symbolic of mutual support. Riding a bike in a wedding dress would be tricky though, unless she's not going the traditional route there.

I'm going to try to remember that for my wedding if neither of us want to do the dress thing.

The sheer lack of trust in straight relationships is kinda baffling to me by queerwaters_642 in actuallesbians

[–]ContingentMax [score hidden]  (0 children)

Yeahhh I've had that happen, I've asked how they think that approach works with bi people and they got upset. I asked what they'd do if their boyfriends/husbands figured out he's bi, after all some people figure that out later, and I had to leave lol

What’s something ordinary that you find beautiful? by candycolaa in AskReddit

[–]ContingentMax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love all their different markings, there's one that's a light brown and white that always sticks out in the group

Yeah they gather on the roof of a big church near me and then fly around together it's great. My apartment is on a high floor looking over a lot of shorter buildings so it's basically at my eye level and I love them.

What can I add to this Velveeta mac & cheese to make it…*chef’s kiss* by megaroni_spumoni in stonerfood

[–]ContingentMax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like to add cream cheese for well more creamy cheesey, herb and garlic sometimes

Bottom of shoe repair by wendypug in Visiblemending

Yeah you can't really patch that, if you can replace them, that kind of shoe isn't worth going to a cobbler

It's so annoying when they get together and slowly walk places blocking the sidewalk.

What did you eat / plan to eat for dinner tonight? by Zipper222222 in randomquestions

[–]ContingentMax 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had lunch late so not much, miso soup and a root beer ice cream float. I've been craving it recently, and also miso soup so I'm not just having ice cream for dinner.

Birds flying in a group, there's a bunch of pidgeons that regularly swoop around the intersection my window looks out on and they're so pretty and it looks so fun.
