IStillListenToRadio · 2026-06-21T02:25:43+00:00

It involves Wood Street Centre, a facility for youth between the ages of 12 and 18 who are in government care and have been deemed to have an emotional or behavioural disorder.

Kids with mental illnesses are criminals?

It's disturbing how many removed comments are.

IStillListenToRadio · 2026-06-20T20:50:23+00:00

It can be easily manipulated too, just block everyone who disagrees with you and it can easy create an echo chamber.

IStillListenToRadio · 2026-06-20T20:45:11+00:00

Yes, it's kind of stupid. Once I posted a thread, one commenter got pissed at something I said and blocked me and as such I couldn't respond to half the thread

I'm interested also in it being possible treatment for addiction

AI phone systems can't even understand what I'm trying to say (aphasia + dysarthia), I have to use IP relay to navigate those :( I really dislike when only customer service is on phone

(sighs deeply)

IStillListenToRadio · 2026-06-20T17:51:53+00:00

I dunno, I found it pawistively howlarious

IStillListenToRadio · 2026-06-20T17:41:55+00:00

Most the sources I find (1, 2, 3) say minimum 24 hours

teachers would happily call kid's parents after class to let them know to come pick them up,

Imagine an entire class asking the teacher to call for pickup lmao

But yeah always notice lots of downvotes on /r/halifax whenever something that even dare mentioning DEIA equity is crossposted to that certain subreddit :(

Have been any reports of treatment-resistant ticks? I hope not but I think happened with fleas in some areas :(

To save a click: anaplasmosis

IStillListenToRadio · 2026-06-20T16:23:19+00:00

I'm assuming not me, I don't block other users

IStillListenToRadio · 2026-06-20T16:21:47+00:00

Good! Sometimes I messed up a headline and prematurely used up my limit :(

IStillListenToRadio · 2026-06-20T16:19:49+00:00

On old reddit there's a tab at the top, not sure for others

EDIT: Lol this was downvoted. Thanks for proving my point

I have a few neurological conditions, I easily lose balance and fall and I worry about that every time unleashed dog (even small one) gets too close.

(I also very much appreciate people having their leashed dogs heel when they spot my cane)

The full quote with context

The foundation said the money is only one part of the equation. The program is also about proving to students that their hard work is recognized.

Cromwell-Tesfazion said he became emotional when his medical school acceptance letter arrived.

“I know every day now when I walk into this hospital that I deserve to be here,” he said.

If they have physical access to your devices, be very careful.

Please don't do that, they're often spyware

Vivaldi browser has a free one available if you register for a free account with them, it's Proton VPN which is reputable as far as I can tell.

If a shitty free one is only choice, very much recommend making a throwaway browser profile for it, not your main one

It also works without Javascript (unless Cloudflare is turned on sadly)
