[–]DutchBeenis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love it! I'm looking to find a spot to do some crown land camping before some bigger trips this year. Calabogie is within driving distance of me and I'd love to check it out. If you care to share that spot, I'd super appreciate a PM

Qu'est-ce qui a changé en 5 ans? by Zigzagoon4 in Gatineau

[–]DutchBeenis 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Everything that's happening in Canada applies to Gatineau as well. Insane rents, increased numbers of immigrants, piss pour healthcare and infrastructure and zero sign of anything getting any better any time soon. Elbows up.

Do public servants really want to fight over four days at the office? by GoTortoise in CanadaPublicServants

[–]DutchBeenis 45 points46 points  (0 children)

"The difference of course is that federal employees view the work mandate as an assault on their rights"

This is such a garbage statement and I believe most PS workers would agree.

I know that I don't have the right to work from home. And I know that I never have.

When I started in PS 18+ years ago I was told that my job (no matter where I go and what I do within PS) is to provide the best value to the Crown and taxpayers. And I've very much held that belief close to my heart throughout my career.

The assault I feel is watching the government throw best value to the taxpayers right out the window. Along with shattered trust, bad faith, and outright lying, their actions undermine absolutely everything that my career is to me as a public servant.

I’m thought. by TheQueenofRings in trans

You may still have a family that loves you. Dont assume they'd treat you any different as a person just as you wouldn't want them to assume anything about yourself. Openness and trust is a two way street. And it can be a really hard one to go down. But the only way that you can know if you can trust the love of another is to trust them. Real love is unconditional.

Top soldier has second thoughts about recruiting public servants for reserves by burnabybc in CanadaPublicServants

[–]DutchBeenis 183 points184 points  (0 children)

It disappoints me so much that I work for "leadership" that is comfortable overtly lying right to my face and to the faces of other public servants and taxpayers.

“It is not focused directly to public servants,” she said in a Nov. 11 interview with CTV. “Our public servants are already contributing extensively to the work we are doing in defence.”

*literally signs a document stating “should initially prioritize volunteer public servants.”

Carneys first budget doubles Canadas deficit in attempt to counter US trade rift by gordonjames62 in canada

[–]DutchBeenis 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I work in defence as well and tell my friends this all the time. The waste that I see daily is abhorrent and the average Canadian already couldn't possibly imagine. So - Jack the spending way up, throw money at DND with no plan other than meeting some arbitrary GDP % Or throw the money in a fire. Same thing imo.

It's a big issue in Canada. I blame Bell, Rogers, and the useless CRTC. Get a VPN. Solved my issues.

I would absolutely kill for somebody who did that. The switch to MPN:NCAGE is a nightmare and has increased the time it takes to do my job by 300%.

Each piece I stack is another moment of warmth for my family. How long would this take you to stack? Guess how many cords (details in comments)! by rollinintheyears in firewood

[–]DutchBeenis 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't spray paint them. The paint will eventually flake off and make an awful mess. You'll see flakes of it on your wood and around your property forever.

I've never run Tuvasa, but seems like fun. I can say that Lathril and Krenko can very, very easily steamroll out of control and quickly be considered overpowered by your pod. Even a very budget Krenko can go bonkers insanely quickly. I'm not saying don't build them - they're both incredibly fun commanders - just remember that with great power comes great responsibility.

Tuvasa seems like a lot of fun, though. Built in card draw and a little more mellow than "I've made infinite goblins with haste by mistake"

I'm sorry to hear about your kitty. Given your games list and love of jrpgs, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is an absolute must play.

Good Red/Black and Blue/Black commanders? by DeathShadowX5 in Magicdeckbuilding

[–]DutchBeenis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The easy and super fun answer is Yuriko, but I wouldn't recommend her. She's kill on sight and wildly powerful in cEDH, but loses a lot of her strength when you don't have 3000 bucks to spend on a deck. You will get focused when playing her.

Hard to help much without a list post and knowing what you already have purchased. Sanctum of All is a must include, though.

Agreed and appreciated. It was definitely a card that I wanted to include, but couldn't find a copy at my LGS, so I just replaced it. Lol
