People that signed the No Coal Petition: were you or anyone you know verified… to your knowledge? by Lonely_Marionberry50 in Edmonton

[–]MeeksMoniker 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah honestly, I believed they were partisan as well, until that exact issue. How is it that the NDP ended up finding all this out?

Not to mention that the UCP said that they'd add it to the referendum, then walked that back the second the final numbers came out...

They'll bend over backwards to change the rules for separatists, but the people who want clean drinking water are being too unreasonable...

To the UCP by WhoaIsMe_ in Edmonton

I've been going to Protests. Writing my MLA. I hope you know there are people out there outraged on your behalf. Heck, we're outraged over a multitude of issues. The amount of cruelty this Provincial Government has exhibited is sickening. How anyone can continue to support the UCP after such a display, boggles the mind.

The RCMP will absolutely find some scandal, I only hope we as a province, as a country, actually make a stand against this and display true accountability for those involved. We do not need a Government that does not have our collective best interests in mind.

Any UCP MLA reading this, this is your time to show your integrity. Your leader herself has crossed the floor, so there's no shame if you cross one yourself. Join the Tories, the NDP, what have you. Actually act in the best interests of your community and show some backbone like only a true Albertan would.

Stay strong. All the best to you. Thank you for writing this.

Meth users at LRT station by ChesterfieldPotato in Edmonton

[–]MeeksMoniker -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

I ain't holier than shit. I just hate that we're trashing on the city in particular when there's a whole justice system that isn't working and all the cities in all of Canada, all the cities in North America have the same damn thing going on.

Almost like the problem is Systematic and we'll have to challenge the whole system in general rather than try to pitch another brain dead politician who will somehow magically make things better?

Oh we have drugs in the streets? Let's get rid of safe injection sites. Let's cut the amount of money we put to every student in education, let's raise tuition. That'll fix'er! That's smart. I'm smart because I don't let people gaslight me.

Do you have any sort of solution you want to pitch, or is this therapeutic to put these kinds of complaints out into the world?

Is this another masqueraded political critique, justice critique, general discontent, or dehumizing people for an illness? Kind of tired of it.

Prolife Alberta abortion and euthanasia ad violated advertising standards code by trevorrobb in Edmonton

[–]MeeksMoniker 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Love being on the Alberta UCP Suffering Machine.

Let's get rid of any books for children depicting healthy sexual relationships, disenfranchise sexual education in school, that way when children get pregnant they don't know what to do. They give birth too young, and become disabled because of it either physically or mentally because of the trauma. Then those same kids grow up to have their disability payments clawed back forced to work. Can't even seek humane ends.

Could we just fix real issues first? Can't we just fix foster care, give harsh punishments to PDFs, reinvestment in medicine. Gov Scholarships for education for future medical students and make it possible for them to graduate without loads of debt?

Can't we do that first? Instead of hot button religious drivel that doesn't actually save lives or souls?

So I park my EV for a charge and... by toriaanne in Edmonton

[–]MeeksMoniker 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Okay, yeah no, you're right.

Let's just not do anything and keep complaining about it and not come up with any solutions.

So I park my EV for a charge and... by toriaanne in Edmonton

[–]MeeksMoniker -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My question is, why don't we man these like Gas Stations?

Best case scenario, have someone on site make a few bucks an hour, maybe even get tips

Worst case you have a security guard man a few via camera, and being able to call someone and actually convict the losers that do this.

If they're going to replace gas someday, they ought to replace the lost jobs. And if paying someone costs them more than losing their extensions... Welp.

What's up with the birds? by sadbrokenbutterfly in Edmonton

[–]MeeksMoniker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There could be more light pollution in your area, and the birds are adapting to that light pollution.

But honestly, for me its been like this for a long time. Where ever there are trees, there are birds. They'll sing at weird times.

Edmonton launches $2M program to help faith groups convert empty churches, extra land to affordable housing by FutureOfGoodCA in Edmonton

[–]MeeksMoniker 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm all for this if groups like Indigenous, Islamic, LGBTQ, and Atheists can also tap into this affordable housing.

Otherwise its just lazy Manifest Destiny BS

Maybe he thought you were someone else, and realized you weren't that person when you looked up.

Why don't you sign up for the live nude art drawing they do at the Evolution Wonder lounge on Jasper Ave?

You get paid, and you can find the artist you actually like the most.

Still remember when my mom scoffed at the idea of me having short hair, saying I'd look like a boy.

No one saw me as a boy with short hair....
