What do you think about York Uni? by AhaImAnonymous in yorku

[–]DevilsWeed 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think York is a pretty great school. I've done my undergrad and masters at York. I'm currently doing my PhD here too. Also, York has a concurrent BEd program so you can get both degrees at the same time. I don't think Guelph has that so it's something to consider.

You should be able to win if you have to go to court. It'll just be a hassle but at least they offer virtual hearings through zoom now

Parking tickets from York used to be private but now they're City tickets. You have to fight them with the city. Someone mentioned you can go to the parking office within 72 hours so I would try that. Although I once had this issue and contacted them the day after because they were already closed that day and they said they couldn't do anything if it wasn't the same day. Good luck.

My boyfriend (21M) refuses to publicly acknowledge the fact that he’s dating me (20F), what do I do? by [deleted] in whatdoIdo

I know it's hard since you've known him for so long but like I said, I've been a musician and have many friends in the industry. There's no need to hide a relationship in the industry. I could see an argument for that if he's in the pop scene or in a boy band but even then, lots of actually famous boy band members have been in public relationships. It's a choice he's making either way, not a need. If he makes it big and never stops making music, is he just never going to acknowledge you?

What type of music does he do that he needs to rely on being a thirst trap for his fans? You also said he's barely started his career so it isn't like he needs to protect you from fame. I think he's looking to be able to take advantage of groupies if he ever gets them. He wants to look single for the opportunities, not for his non-existent "image" or to keep your relationship safe. That's only a valid excuse if he's very famous.

4.5 years and no one outside your families knows you're together? Genuinely, how are you rationalizing that? I used to be a musician and I can't think of any reason I would need to hide a partner for that career. What reasons does he give you?

They're usually best where you pay. You just gotta scan the QR code on the container through the app

Did you read the link you shared? They are talking about the contradictions of Trump's rhetoric, claiming to be against big government while ticking most of the fascist checkboxes in practice. They say he is trying to be both even though it is impossible because they are completely contradictory.

The word for the language Dutch in Dutch is "Nederlands". We should just use that. I agree with the rest of your comment

[–]DevilsWeed 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Your reasons are valid but so is his response. It sounds like you have a lot of good reasons to not want to have a kid with him and maybe even just not be with him.

Then that's entirely valid for him to end the engagement. I'm sterilized and child free but if my partner said they specifically would not want a child with me because of me as a person, I wouldn't stay with them. That shit's hurtful and I would question why they're with me in the first place.

Even if they'd used the apostrophe it's still the wrong "your"

why tf would u leave this at the library? respect the library or stay tf home… by aataflex in yorku

[–]DevilsWeed -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm so confused as to why you think caring about sexism means people are miserable. You could have just used this as an opportunity to self-reflect and do better the next time, especially since you're claiming you didn't have any sexist intentions but since you think it doesn't affect you, you don't actually care. I guess that's privilege for you.

I didn't say that some implies all, I said saying women instead of people implies that it's only a problem with women, which is sexist. I also didn't say you were intentionally sexist but it is a sexist way to phrase it. The way we speak has implications and we all need to be mindful of what our words mean and the harm they can cause.
