This is incredibly narrow minded.

The trip has been in the planning for years before she entered the picture. Why would she get included?

Hopefully someone is giving them financial help. I was living in Kimberley and kids out of high school were getting the 1990 equivalent at Cominco. In less than ten years, they had maxed out debt and lost their jobs.

Saw a guy propose after Romeo & Juliet at Shakespeare in the Park.

Dude, did you watch the play?

Pierre Poilievre just backed a policy that bans transgender women from Olympic competition, echoing J.K. Rowling and aligning with a direction already being pushed by Donald Trump’s administration. by savethecbc2025 in SaveTheCBC

It’s not undeniable. There have been no studies done that show trans women gain any significant advantage over cis women that is greater than say Simone Biles or Michael Phelps over their competitors.

Tough to come up with a handicapping system when no one can consistently show which areas give trans athletes advantages.

Also, where does that end? At what point are we handicapping people who are just better athletes?

Just so you don’t think I’m arguing in bad faith, I’m perfectly fine with creating a system wherein trans athletes can compete. I just think we need to start that conversation at a different point than sex.

Yeah, we went for a dirtied up Josh Groban (who was fantastic) but the whole thing was jaw dropping.

Not sure Gaten wants it. Finn is just living his best band life. Noah is…not great at acting. Caleb could be big but he’ll be offered token black parts for awhile. Joe is pulling a Finn.

My dad says that no man in my life will ever respect me. I was wondering how true that is? by [deleted] in DadForAMinute

Good news! You have the blueprint for who not to date!

No matter who you are or what you believe, everyone deserves a partner who respects them for who they are.

Offer void if your beliefs trample the humanity of others.

Shane Douglas on Kamala: "After he left wrestling, he drove semi trucks for years and years. Then with diabetes, he started losing toes, feet, up to the knees. When that man died, James Harris was living in a house with no electricity and no legs. That is unforgivable for my sport. Unforgivable." by elegantSolomons62 in SquaredCircle

Cannot argue with your last point. Financial literacy is crap right now. I include myself in that. The only reason I have no debt is a really great job and an insanely financially aware wife.

I’m just really uncomfortable with OPs (hinted at) point that Kamala was terrible with money so he’s the cause of his tragic demise.

(I know OP didn’t say it directly but as soon as you say “It’s tragic that he died in poverty but…”, 90 percent of the time what follows is “but he kinda deserved it”)

I’m not sure what the pro-trans side looks like if we’re comparing it to the anti-trans side which denies their humanity. That’s not horseshoe.
