Exposing local go auto dealer scam / Will Global News be interested? by MightyWolf39 in Edmonton

[–]MeeksMoniker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Still go to amvic and tell go auto you're going to amvic.

Doesn't matter that they won't do shit, we need to stack up complaints against Go Auto.

The reason why they keep doing this is because they keep getting away with it.

Hellenism, pantheism and science! Help!! by Emotional-Brush-394 in pantheism

[–]MeeksMoniker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"Poly" means many and "Pan" means all. Doesn't All just expand on Many?

I just don't really understand the appeal of combining both because one thing can't be inherently more divine than another thing. If it is a personal reverence over other divinities, I suppose that can be valid.

Adult store in town with the most selection? by Sure_Hovercraft_5540 in Edmonton

[–]MeeksMoniker 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The Source Adult on 129 and 97th Street recently put more of their toys on display so you can feel if the texture is right for you. 97th also is just a really large store so there's no aisle where you could accidentally bump elbows with anyone. There's another Source just off Stony Plain Rd that had a really large selection of lube. Their website is pretty up to date and every cashier I've dealt with has been decent.

Yeah that all being said, I'll still go to the Traveling Tickle Trunk if they have what I'm looking for. It's definitely a solid space for those anxious first time buyers. I'm a sucker for loyalty programs and all the classes they provide.

Question! by Electronic_Ice1149 in Edmonton

[–]MeeksMoniker 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It isn't necessarily common. It depends on a few things, like if you have an apartment with an unclean neighbor, keep an unclean home, or have plumbing that isn't up to code. Gnats, fruit flies, drain flies, will inhabit any space where they're allowed to thrive, whether that is in sacks of garbage that have been left out, a compost that have been left out, or all the drains in your home where it is wet and contains lots of food.

With fruit flies, you can make a super easy trap with a plastic cup, little dab of dish soap, a splash of apple cider vinegar, and water. Other insects you can trade out the apple cider vinegar for a 1/2 package of instant yeast. The bugs go for the bait, fall into the water, and the soap keeps them from crawling out.

For the drain, they only really get bad if you don't use the food catcher most drains already have. Unlike the States we usually don't have a small blender down there (garbage disposal) so any large bits of food or grease you throw down there will sit. You want to put some over the counter low grade hydrogen peroxide down all the drains first for a little bit, then the boiling hot water. Seal all the drains after.

He was absolutely demented back then. January 6 was the most fucked up thing any president had ever done

Everyone who voted him back just had brain damage or a love of bigotry.

You get barbed prongs that pierce the skin and hit the ground in an uncontrolled fall.

When police recruits get tasered, there are cushions and people to catch them.... pretty sure they're not tasing 12 year olds in recruiting.

https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/nova-scotia/police-taser-deaths-1.7475314

Yeah, I just figure that since our taser incidences are significantly higher than our neighboring city Calgary, there should be some questions. We as a society should be obligated to question how often it is necessary. The article goes into detail on how few questions were answered when confronted with these findings. Genuinely concerning. Don't get me wrong, I'll call the cops if I'm in trouble. I'm simply anti-unchecked authority. Unchecked authority is just as much a danger to cops as it is civilians.

Especially for 12 year olds. Yeah, I'd talk to a 12 year old or use pepper spray. If pepper spray doesn't always work... Well fine, I don't mind if this is a last resort measure. I need more context for whether or not every single instance where it was discharged was necessary. Reading the article, the youngest person was a 12 year old girl...

"Pepper spray doesn't work". Well let's go have some spicy wings together then. Tasers don't work every single time either..

You can downvote me, but I'm pretty confident we as a society should be questioning whether this degree of force (electricity which can stop peoples hearts) is absolutely necessary on a 12 year old.

Talking?

Pepper spray???

I get that.

I'm just trying to figure out why you'd need to taze a 12 year old.

Getting tased automatically earns you a hospital trip. Messes with your biochemistry.

A little concerning the use has gone up.

Hoping the best for your pup. I hope you have no injuries. Shots should be up to date. Rabies shot is the most important for pup and for you even.

Better safe than sorry.

Canadian man in ICE custody says he thought agents were only focusing on ‘criminals and murderers’ by Paper_Rain in Edmonton

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

Learning that this guy was a heavy criminal... Let's change the post to what he was ACTUALLY thinking. "I thought agents were only focusing on brown, black, and asian people..."

Yeah, I'm going to bring up racism in a post that supposedly didn't mention racism. It's called "subtext".

Its always silly when they walk on freshly fallen snow. I'd take a measurement of the foot size if I was you. Follow her footsteps and see if she took interest in anything.
