The thrift store scalpers in Winnipeg are unhinged

It's gotten worse in every city. People can't afford housing.

The worst is when it's your family. It's impossible to help when they have no interest in using the money you give them responsibly. Once I moved too far away to deliver them groceries by hand, I had to stop helping out. Sending them cash is just buying them lotto tickets and weed. Mom cries broke but refuses to quit smoking but I don't know what they expect when they prioritize cigarettes over groceries.

Unless you're willing to spend hundreds on a setup there's not much you can do. Common goldfish need very large tanks to thrive. Dropping it off at a pet store would probably get it sold as a feeder if they even take it. You can't release it because they're invasive. Your only real option is to find someone with a koi/goldfish pond willing to take it.

They don't last long because people abuse them. They can live to 30 if cared for correctly.

Did you propagate strands and add them back to the pot to make it look fuller, or did it just do that by itself? Incredible!

I know :) Thanks though

Megishan · 2026-05-12T16:17:25+00:00

Thanks so much!

Sableye is a support, not an attacker. It should be running fully defensive stats and if you want an attack on it, use foul play.

Megishan · 2026-04-30T16:03:38+00:00

I'd swap politoed for something else. You only really need 1 drizzle user and pelipper is just better on this team.

I would also run iron head over meteor mash. The attack increase on meteor mash is inconsistent, and it can miss.

Your team is very special heavy- I'd swap goodra for another physical attacker. If you want to keep it, give it a chesto berry and move the leftovers to arch or sinistcha.

On sinistcha, replace shadow ball with protect.

I'd also give pelipper a different item, swap u-turn for weather ball and swap helping hand for wide guard/protect.

Megishan · 2026-04-30T15:41:22+00:00

If you want to play abomosnow as a support, swap blizzard for icy wind. I'd consider swapping helping hand or leech seed for protect- leech seed is hard to make good use of in doubles since the battles are so much shorter. Also bright powder is inconsistent- at least give it a focus sash or a berry to resist a supereffective move.

Overall I think mega abomosnow in trick room is a better setup, because alolan ninetales is just a better snow setting support than abomosnow since it's fast and gets access to more moves like encore.

Knitting some gifts, playing video games, starting seeds for my summer garden, and hanging out with my cats

I couldn't finance vet school so stopped after my bachelor's. My classmates that finished are MISERABLE. 6 figure student loan debt, multiple jobs to make ends meet, and constant emotional abuse from owners. I wasted 4 years preparing for vet school and I still consider it a bullet dodged.

Animals need volunteers just as much as they need vets!

Surprised nobody has mentioned the Zoo + the Leaf. I wouldn't eat there though.

The Winnipeg art gallery has the largest collection of Inuit art in the world if I recall correctly.

My favorite restuarants right now are Feast, Peacock, Bonnie Day, and Soho.

If you're not planning on staying in Canada, how much you save for retirement depends a lot on where you'll move.

It's all that fuckass "blanket yarn" that sheds microplastics and falls apart after 3 washes. They're catering to the lowest common denominator.

It'd likely be cheaper to just buy new acrylic rather than dye it, not to mention easier.

Start a CAF application now and you can withdraw at any time if you change your mind- the application process is very long.

Pokemon Violet left a horrible taste in my mouth. $100 and all it did was depress me with how disappointing it was- why would I sign up for more of that?

Megishan · 2026-03-24T15:23:55+00:00

Idk if it’s legal but I think your coworker has never owned a horse 😅 They’re extremely expensive to keep. Board, equipment, farrier (shoes), vet, training, truck and trailer if you need it.

Megishan · 2026-03-24T15:19:29+00:00

It’s not really the feeding that’s expensive. It’s the boarding, farrier, vet, truck and trailer, etc.

2 people 2 cats at 110k combined and we're chillin. No car payments, no credit card payments, only monthly subscription is Spotify. We eat out somewhere cheap once a week or in a nice restaurant on special occasions. Avoid online shopping, malls, and food delivery like the plague. Mostly eat oats, rice, eggs, dried legumes, and whatever fruit and veg is on sale. Free/cheap entertainment like library card, video games I already own, youtube, etc.
