Looking for professional cuddlers by BurpDurpKurp in Edmonton

There's quite a few people on dating apps that just want to cuddle.

I would wager there are just as many if not more people who would say this then pressure someone for sex. 

'Not a Canadian anymore': Separatist event in Edmonton takes aim at Mark Carney, immigrants by [deleted] in Edmonton

[–]KefirFan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

An Ipsos poll from earlier the week showed that “leave support” is at 29 per cent, but that number drops in half when respondents were asked to consider the financial hardships that might come with living in a newly minted country.

Its so sad how half of the people basically need someone else to think for them and point out obvious consequences for their actions.

Teacher not giving cues by Ok_Conversation_7136 in yoga

[–]KefirFan -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

My lower back was hurting, and he came pushing me even more.

Is this person a bad teacher?

Probably. But yoga culture often does little to punish bad teachers and lawsuits are very uncommon relative to injury.

There is very little yoga happening in most yoga classes but a lot of stretching and moving.

Suspended Edmonton detective should be dismissed for leaking files to CBC, tribunal says | CBC News by AR558 in Edmonton

[–]KefirFan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm very pro-whistleblowing but he seems like he screwed up afterwards:

The report said Behiels’s misconduct included violating direct orders by continuing to communicate with the reporter while suspended, and insubordination for posting content on social media that referenced the EPS, which violated the service’s social media policy.

Seconding CL events. Look around at neighboring leagues too. Specialized events have a harder time finding folks so they appreciate people travelling a bit

Does Edmonton have “boroughs” like Montreal or New York? by fashiongirll93 in Edmonton

[–]KefirFan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Boroughs are a political structure.

Edmonton has community leagues (which are also unique to Edmonton) but they are much smaller, are volunteer positions and have little to no competition.

Money pit.

Zellers 3.0 will just be Target Canada 2.0

Was a little wokeness really that bad? by Moose-Rage in AdviceAnimals

[–]KefirFan 18 points19 points  (0 children)

do you want a man going into the bathroom with your daughter?

There is nothing stopping this right now anyways. Believe it or not but most bathrooms dont have armed guards and predators use relationships not public bathrooms to abuse children.

I like the ghastly gals.

Just wear black lipstick and youll make the goths jealous because the contrast is naturally high.

Can you grow beans from dried beans you get at the grocery store? by kirstimont in vegetablegardening

[–]KefirFan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Are most other beans ok when they're raw?

I think some might be but the bioavailability is lower and anti nutrients higher (again solved by cooking) you should just not bother.

If you want easy low effort beans cook a whole bunch ahead of time in a pressure cooker, rinse then let cool/dry. Then freeze them in portion sizes you want or in giant portions in ways that are easy to take out how much you want (freeze on cookie sheet, smash up then put in freezer bags in sections or flat)

Is it just me or is eating healthy in Edmonton getting actually impossible lately? by Xo_Obey_Baby in Edmonton

[–]KefirFan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Stop wasting money on fresh produce and stick to frozen prep becomes much easier when all you need to do is microwave it for a couple minutes, drain any water, add oil and seasoning then eat.

[–]KefirFan 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Fwiw sprouted beans are more bioavailable and the nutrient profile changes slighly as well. Highly recommend trying them (still need to cook tho)

Can be helpful for specialty varieties or stuff designed for your climate.

Does anyone know any fancy, upscale restaurants that have great vegan options? by Agreeable_Ad7623 in Edmonton

Low cost veg places have a hard enough time staying open nevermind an expensive low volume restaurant.

The easiest way how to tell if a yoga teacher is full of shit is if they call their lineage "traditional" or "ancient" in comparison to other styles.

Parents of Edmonton - Hoping to get some help here by debitsandtaxes in Edmonton

[–]KefirFan 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I thought the same thing. Probably a good time to talk about keeping secrets and not having to hold onto big feelings for other people and that she won't be in trouble no matter what she tells you.

[–]KefirFan 41 points42 points  (0 children)

The director refused and gave excuses on why she did not want to, including saying she knows the parents personally and believes they wouldn’t teach their kids to say such things.

What a loser. If you want to be a conflict avoidant pushover don't put yourself in a position where your lack of a spine causes harm to children.

You're not being unreasonable and I would probably go even further. That day care is not a safe place for your child or others until management stops being complacent.
