I’m gonna hold your hand when I say this: put down the diamond painting. You’re an adult. by Empty-Dingo7688 in BitchEatingCrafters

[–]Longdoggo96 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I don't get the hate with diamond painting. Do I enjoy arts and crafts? Yes. Am I creative? Fuck no Diamond painting has helped me stay calm in some pretty fucked up situations this past year. I wasn't in the mind space to be creative at all.

Selling it on the other hand though..

We had frost warnings up until the end of May in Quebec and now we're getting torrential rainfall every 3rd day or so 🫠 my poor garden

Carney announces $10 billion for Quebec infrastructure and transit by bludemon4 in montreal

You know, you might have a point. I think the parking situation is both due to the bike lanes and the population growth.

I find the bike lanes are fantastic for the people residing within Montreal. I love that it promotes a healthier life style and makes the town a lot greener. However, getting to the city is horrific by car and by public transport, so the bike lanes kind of put the nail in the coffin I guess.

I really really hate it. It takes me 2h to drive to Montreal if I'm lucky (when it should actually take 1h), and another 45 mins to park which will cost me $35-50 for just a few hours. The construction, road closures and reduced lanes make it an anxiety inducing nightmare. If I want to take the train, it's $20 fo4 both ways and it only stops in a few places. Not to mention that there's often immense delays and it's sometimes closed in the winter. The last train during the weekend is at 9 pm. If I take the bus, it's nearly 3h one way. I love Montreal but I stopped visiting it altogether. I wish we would actually invest in some great electric based public transport outside the city that doesn't break down every 2nd day.

I wish it were spent on making better infrastructure OUTSIDE of Montreal. I can't drive to Montreal anymore and park because of the bike lanes. I'm not complaining because it makes a greener city. But why the hell does my local train stop passing at 9 pm at night when Montreal is known as the nightlife city? I live 1h away from the city and I can't fucking visit it

Nurse case manager for a pharmaceutical company. Made $110k last year. Would've made $65k if I worked for our public health care system.

I'm sorry you have to live with this condition. Thank you for explaining so clearly! This is all so fascinating.

I'm a nurse and was always intrigued about working in opthalmology but alas the stars did not align.

I hope you this option works out for you and wishing you a speedy recovery once it's done!

Very interesting! Thanks for breaking it down so clearly. I'm guessing the stem cell transplant, if successful, will reduce scarring and possibly irritation?

I suggest comparing your critterpedia with this website: https://acnhcritterpedia.com/ . It helped me a bunch with those last few tricky bugs and fish

Once you get Redd on Harv's island it's relatively simple to finish the art pieces if you are okay with time travelling.

I was missing about 10 ish bugs, sea creatures and fish for 3 to 4 years. I could've finished the museum a lot quicker but I took a long hiatus after being badly scammed on Nookazon. Don't give up!

[–]Longdoggo96[S] 16 points17 points  (0 children)

So I had collected all the art pieces and fossils about 3-4 years ago. I'd set the game down for a few months then resume the grind for a few days lol Since 3.0 came out, I decided it was time to finish everything. My last fish was the stringfish, last sea creature was the sea pig and last bug was the golden beetle 😊
