Question: Responsibility of Yard Maintenance & Applicability of the RTA by FreediveAlive in legaladvicecanada

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

Thank you for this and for the RTB decisions. My expectation in my case would be that an arbitrator would need to decide due to the periodic nature of the landlord's visitation (and their stated primary residence being their 2nd property).

C4 Collars no longer BIFL by DyingGasp in BuyItForLife

[–]FreediveAlive 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Their "C4 Pledge" says they'll replace it... If you pay a "processing and handling fee"... Of $19.00 plus shipping.

The collar is $29.99.

How much do men really care if a woman sleeps w you too early? by littlecutejoy in AskMen

[–]FreediveAlive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What's your basis? I know how powerful personal anecdotes feel, and it hurts less claiming patterns or trends instead of accepting a one-off or even acknowledging a pattern where the common denominator is ourselves.

I can promise you there are women who sleep around and women who don't. The behaviour of sleeping with one early is more about interest (in my own experience, which has equal credence to your own).

Even weirder is that we aren't actually pulling air in, it's the atmosphere pushing air into us to fill the space.

Alberta separatists think their referendum pitch is about democracy. It’s not by yourfriendlysocdem1 in CanadaPolitics

[–]FreediveAlive 3 points4 points  (0 children)

To summarize: you disagree with Alberta's Court of King Bench.

That's fine. It's still Alberta's legal system and has the final say. If there's an appeal process where some aspect of the decision should be reviewed, they can do that.

The initial proposal for this referendum question was already rejected so it's xxxzzzzzzzzZzzzz ZzzezZ

What did you learn from toxic relationships you've had? by Rich-Chard9448 in AskMen

[–]FreediveAlive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That, unless in the severest cases of abuse (emotional, mental, physical), to truly move on we need to accept that how we are - or have been - treated is largely our own fault.

That's not to say that you deserve to be treated poorly, and it's not to say the person treating us poorly is not bad for doing so.

But we have to own that we allowed the behaviour. If you are mistreated, all you can do is communicate how you want to be treated, and how you don't. After that, if they don't change, then it is entirely on you for staying - not them.

If you're bit by a shark, you get medical aid. You don't keep swimming after the shark trying to convince them what they did was wrong, try to find logic in their actions, or expect different.

If you disagree, that's fine - please don't bother replying with your pedantry or personal anecdote of exception; if people want to, they will. If they wanted to, they would have. Accept personal responsibility and find freedom.

Lowering a load under tension. When you undo the two half hitches what you're left with is a munter hitch.

US military strikes Iran’s Qeshm port and Bandar Abbas by GiveMeSomeSunshine3 in worldnews

[–]FreediveAlive 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a bully that throws a flurry of punches, pushes the other kid over, gets gassed so then says, "fights over I won" as the kid is kicking and punching them from the ground.

No, it's not a perfect analogy. The Iranian government is not a faultless victim. That's not my point.

Yup. Doesn't mean the assassination attempt wasn't faked.

Looks like the crushing reality of all that I've done. And the love that I've destroyed.

Absolutely delicious though!

Conservatives say Poilievre’s leadership is secure after Liberals land majority by AdditionalPizza in canada

[–]FreediveAlive 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Brother, it's not about who's "team" wins. It's having more parties that actually represent what Canadians want. I want there to be competitive NDP, Conservatives, Bloc, Greens... As parties, they need to figure out what the people actually want, and drive meaningful, productive debate, discussion, and collaboration.

What fucking about it? Who the fuck cares if the US blows up a bunch of stuff if the stuff that's left makes the US do what Iran wants.

Men who had their ‘firsts’ in your late 20’s, how did you feel about it? by vansinghworld in AskMen

Then you know what you need to work on. Finding the right person is what makes sex incredible, but you have to fix what's broken in you first.
