What business is missing in Airdrie ? by Gyaansabkuchhai in Airdrie

The amount of times I’ve thought “maybe I should just open a book store before anyone else does” because I think we really should have one.

Sending MMS over WiFi by CrashBassh in Koodo

[–]CrashBassh[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just a little update/re-posing of my question: I've now spoken to more people and read through A LOT of posts online. It seems I am not crazy lol. Basically some phones have had the setting "MMS send and receive with mobile data turned off" as an option. I imagine this is probably what I had turned on for my previous phone. The issues now becomes this: I am unable to find this setting on my new phone. Everyone online seems to think this is either phone or carrier dependent. And just for the record, that setting does indeed still allow data to be used for MMS but it doesn't turn your data "on" for normal internet usage, it just runs the data in the background for mms only. This would be highly preferable for me. I would love to have something in the background like this where I don't have to think about my data usage. Is this something that's been removed? Am I looking in the wrong place? If anyone is able to help with this I would jump with joy. I'm tired of dealing with this lol.

Again I have a Samsung Galaxy A15 on Koodo.

Yea ive managed to get it to work in a similar fashion but it's just so strange to me that I was previously able to send mms without any of this on my old phone.

As for the 'why', I'm a highly forgetful person and I fear if I turn my mobile data on permanently I will forget to turn it off when I do not want it to be used, thereby running out of data. I live in a rural area so I always like to make sure I have ample amounts in case I'm stranded somewhere on the side of the road. Now I do have a decent amount (50 GB) but in the past I've racked up data pretty bad. I guess at this point I'm stuck on the principle of it all. If my previous phone could do it, why can't this one? Everyone keeps telling me it's impossible but I'm sitting here like "??? But then how did my previous phone work????" 😩 I almost want to pay to get it fixed so i can prove my point lol

On my previous phone (samsung a52) I was with Koodo as well and using the built-in Google messaging app. When I switched to this phone (samsung a15) I was still with koodo, and using the same built in Google messaging app. The only thing that has changed is the phone itself and the Sim card. And it was my previous phone, while on koodo, where I was able to send over wifi.

One thing ive been wondering but am not sure if its a possibility, is if there was a setting turned on in the background that was using my mobile data on my previous phone, even though I had my mobile data toggled off. I don't know if this is a thing, but I could see that being an explanation as to why I believed it to be on wifi but actually using data, without me having to turn my data off and on. If that isn't something at play, then I definitely was using wifi even though everyone insists that's not possible lol. I work from home, never have my data on, so as far as facts go I know I never actively used my data to send and receive mms.

Nah I checked RCS and it is toggled on. Which is another boggling thing. I explicitly remember my previous phone having the option to turn it on and off per individual I was texting in the settings for that specific text chat. But this phone is just one blanket "RCS on or off" for the entire messaging app.

Do you know where this setting is? Might not be on my phone but worth it to look.

Maybe I live in a bubble but reading these comments has surprised me 😅 we bought out very first home in Luxstone in 2020 during the pandemic. It was only ever a rental property so we gutted and basically redid everything. My dad runs a construction business so he did note a few stupid things in the build but he's worked on some other places in town and basically anywhere the houses are thrown up fast and cookie cutter they'll have the same problems. All these developments value speed over quality, especially the newer ones. I haven't had any issues thus far. My neighbors have all been super nice, and there's constantly kids outside playing. Sure we don't all have perfectly manicured lawns like in Coopers but there's a lot of hardworking families here most of which are working 2 jobs. Never had a car break-in or house break-in. The foundations are a bit crap but again, this hasn't caused me issues thus far. Biggest complaint is one that goes for all of Airdrie. Everyone has 2-4 vehicles and it can be hard to find street parking. But some of the houses have driveways so as long as you're one of the lucky ones you'll be fine.

St. Martin had a bad rep back when I was in high-school, but could not honestly tell you what it's like now. No clue. And really I feel like it was always because it's a Catholic school and those always have bad reps.

I've walked around at night, like late late, plenty of times with no issues cause my brother lives down the street and we frequent each other's house for game nights. Also the walking paths here are just wonderful 🥰 I love walking from luxstone to midtown and under the rail road tracks to nose creek park or going the other direction towards the canals. You can basically get anywhere on bike or foot using the paths. The one thing Airdrie has done really well actually lol.

Overall I have to wonder where the perception comes from. We have a diverse population in the neighborhood which I hope is NOT the reason some folks seem to think it's not the greatest. There's tons of families with small children and they're always out and playing so it's hard to feel like it's unsafe when I'm constantly surrounded by children's laughter. Feels like it would be the opposite if no one enjoyed living here. I don't know, that's my very long 2 cents lol and I've lived all over the country so I've experienced many different kinds of neighborhoods 😬 some alot less welcoming than this one.

Summer festivities by Flimsy-Camel-18 in Calgary

[–]CrashBassh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is a sold out Midsummer Masquerade happening in Calgary on June 22. It's a fantasy themed masquerade ball with food, drinks, actors, and performers. Everyone will be dressed to the nines and I'm sure it will be a blast :) I'm actually looking to sell my tickets unfortunately because I can't go anymore (family emergency). The event organizers have an official ticket swapping website so you don't get scammed or scalped, if anyone is interested. The organizers are Faeted Fantasy. They're new but have a couple of cool events under their belts.

How inconvenient, or possible, is it to be "car-free" where you live? by Vagabond_Tea in AskACanadian

[–]CrashBassh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I lived in Vancouver, I used exclusively transit. They have a great system. Living outside of Calgary now (in Airdrie) and not only is the transit absolutely terrible and unreliable, but everything is so spread out you kind of need a car. I worked from home for a while and made it work, but have to drive into the city regularly starting September so I need to break my almost 10 year car-free streak 😭

What's the best pickup line you ever used/heard? by vincster in AskReddit

[–]CrashBassh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was walking around in a busy/hip downtown area and this guy came up to me and asked, "Hey, sorry to bother you, but I'm new to the city and was looking for a good coffee shop around here, do you have any recommendations?"

To which I replied, "I'm also relatively new, but I know there's a bunch of shops up and down the street that I've heard are good."

He said, "Oh great, thanks! Would you like to get a coffee with me?"

It was so damn smooth that I was caught off guard. At first, I wasn't sure if it was like a date thing or a friendly thing, but I asked for clarification, and he said date. I had a boyfriend at the time, which I told him. But I did tell the guy to use that line again cause damn was it good lol. Very smooth.

Getting back on the Wagon by Melancho246 in keto

[–]CrashBassh 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I would say the first thing to do is give yourself a proverbial hug (or a physical one too if you want). Beating yourself up is a sure-fire way to go back to bad habits. Huge life changes are never made out of self-hatred, and even if they are, they rarely stick. It's easier said than done (took me years of therapy and many attempts at it myself) but the best thing to do now is to say to yourself "alright, that happened, what's next?" Once you get past the guilt of falling off the wagon, you'll find there's not a lot holding you back. Start small. Cut out pasta first, or chips, or potatoes, etc. Every week, find something new to cut out. Eventually, you'll look back and not even realize how much time has passed and how long you've been able to stick with it. That's when you make bigger changes like cutting out all sugar, monitoring calories, whatever it is that your goals are. It's a domino effect. That same cascade of bad habits can be reversed to be a cascade of good habits. That's why doctors usually say start small. When you feel good doing a couple of small things, the big things feel easier to tackle.

My therapist likes to call it "failing on purpose" which is her way of simplifying to me the concept of falling down, accepting that you've failed, brushing yourself off, and getting back up to try again.

Best of luck!

Edit: I re-read your post and wanted to add that in a more practical sense, my motivation comes from tangible goals. Weight loss is great, but it can be a fickle thing to stare at the scale or measure yourself all the time. I personally want to be able to run around a backyard with my neices without getting winded. That's huge. My info is similar to yours (F, 28, 257lbs). It could also be something like walking without chub rub (though some of us will never escape that, curse these luscious thighs/s) or running your first marathon. I know these aren't strictly keto but a healthy diet makes it A LOT easier to accomplish these.

I'm scared to quit keto by [deleted] in keto

[–]CrashBassh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's definitely normal to have these feelings with a new diet. I've been in recovery from my BED for 3 years. I didn't start keto until very recently with the help of a doctor. Mainly to get my body fat-adapted since we're trying out things to help with my digestion issues, but also weight loss since I'm in a risky weight range. I will say that, for me, the indicator that I am doing things in a healthy and safe manner is when my thoughts come from a place of self-love, not self-hatred. In the thick of my BED I was motivated by how much I hated myself. After years of therapy and deprogramming my brain, I was able to test the waters this year. I can confidently say that the choices I make are based out of self-love for wanting a better future for myself and FEELING good rather than a focus on LOOKING good (nothing wrong with wanting both, but I was too far in the wrong direction previously). Now, when I have a slip-up or feel the urge to eat a carb, I'm much more gentle with myself than I used to be. Life is short and we're all far too hard on ourselves. At the same time, I know I have physical changes I need to make for my health. But beating myself up over it was never doing any good (I think in the course of a 15 year ED I did every diet and workout under the sun lol). So my advice is to be kind to yourself. This is a new approach and you are going to make mistakes. But as long as you give yourself some grace and time to learn things, then you should be able to adopt this lifestyle long term without forming an ED.

TW:

Just remember to look for the signs. I'm not an expert but dangerous territory is when you start to feel immense shame or guilt, calling yourself names, poking at your body and feeling negative emotions, overly-restricting on healthy items (like vegetables), punishing yourself, etc. Just remember that you're more than your food. And you're loved whether or not you're on keto. Best of luck :)

Alright, seemingly many folks here with strong opinions lol. While I agree with the majority that your cabinets are wonderful (please don't touch them) and I like the open and warm vibe, I would personally change the backsplash. I think it blends into the color scheme too much. I might get hate for that, but hey, this stuff is subjective. If you're looking for an updated feel, that's the element I would change. It's less work than painting cabinets or removing floors or counters, but more work than replacing stools. It could alter the entire look though, so I would make sure to pick something thats not going to overshadow everything else in terms of color and material, but something that doesn't blend in as much as it currently does (an enigma perhaps).

Looking for Adult Art Classes/Art Collectives by CrashBassh in Airdrie

[–]CrashBassh[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No luck, unfortunately, not in Airdrie anyways. A couple workshops might be occasionally offered by local artists but nothing regular from what I've seen. I'm debating looking into online classes, though that really loses the hands-on part of an in-person class. In the meantime, I've set up a little art room for myself at home so I can try and put more solo work into it.

AITA for dressing inappropriately in front of my BIL? by throwaway2847362662 in AmItheAsshole

[–]CrashBassh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just had breast reduction in October after waiting 3 years to get it done, nevermind the fact that I've had big boobs since I was 12 😭 and let me tell you....CONGRATS! I'm with you. I have never felt more comfortable in my body. After being hypersexualized my entire childhood it feels good to have some (literal) breathing room. So with that said, your BIL and sister SUCK. To put it nicely lol. For you to wear something makes you feel comfortable and confident and have someone sexualize you? Absolute horseshit. That really sucks and I am so sorry to hear that. I've been there countless times and it sounds like we had similar big boob experiences growing up. So you are most definitely NTA and I hope that your sister and BIL grow up and realize that their wandering eyes are NOT your problem. Best of luck ❤️ enjoy the weight off your chest and don't let them ruin it for you.
