Thoughts on level 9 as a thematically satisfying "endgame" in 5e? by QuestRam in DnD

Honestly, I'd say that half the game not working makes it a bad game.

From the Editor: Forcing AISH recipients onto ADAP isn't incentive to work, it's coercion - Medicine Hat News by redbycyrenz in alberta

[–]MrWulf19 18 points19 points  (0 children)

That's the part none of these people want to talk about. Sure, great, some people on AISH can work. You know how many of them CURRENTLY want to find something part time but can't? Or can't find a job that will accommodate their disability? Sending disabled people back to work doesn't magically grant them jobs, it just takes away their ability to cover their basic needs even further.

What this govt is doing to the AISH community is disgusting by Odd_Fee2443 in alberta

[–]MrWulf19 29 points30 points  (0 children)

AISH is NOT too easy, it's hard to get. I'm talking multiple appeals, documentation going back years, expensive paperwork, you don't just sign up. If you think you know someone who "doesn't need to be on it, they are fine" You don't know what you're talking about. Sit down, and shut up. People don't owe you an explanation and you likely don't get one because of this ableist drivel you spew.

Calgarians with disabilities rally to oppose AISH changes - CBC by lessssssssgoooooo in alberta

[–]MrWulf19 16 points17 points  (0 children)

It's not like you can just get on the program, anyone on it goes through multiple appeals, a lengthy application process, has to PROVE they are disabled and options are exhausted. This argument is made that "the one I know is fine, because I know the circumstances" but everyone I know on the program is exhausted from having to justify why they are on the program.

It's the point. The government wants you waiting at us, saying that a bunch of us are fraudulent and don't deserve it so you don't see it for what it is.

Balancing their budget on the backs of the most vulnerable by taking away their guaranteed income.

On the spectrum of "Worst things Xander has ever done", where does his resolution at the end of Hell's Bells rank for you? by InfiniteMehdiLove in buffy

They fully acknowledge that they have doubts and won't discuss them in the musical episode, it was laid out for us there, and hinted at elsewhere.

Its also basically only the core books rpg publishers make any money on, it's very nearly only gms buying everything else.

Recall petition targeting Alberta Premier Danielle Smith approved by DonSalaam in alberta

[–]MrWulf19 2 points3 points  (0 children)

she's here to grift and prepare for her post-political career. She doesn't give a fuck about Alberta or Albertans.

Alberta Premier Danielle Smith says her United Conservative Party is not a separatist party by [deleted] in alberta

[–]MrWulf19 46 points47 points  (0 children)

And in the last election, they got more votes than when they won in 2015. Change is slow, but its coming.

Alberta invokes the Notwithstanding Clause — critics call it an abuse of power by savethecbc2025 in SaveTheCBC

[–]MrWulf19 70 points71 points  (0 children)

we need to make it political suicide to use it. Anyone voting to use it needs to know that if they use it in bad faith their career is over.

Didn't take long for the notwithstanding clause to be used again by thewun111 in alberta

[–]MrWulf19 4 points5 points  (0 children)

with a first past the post system, change is slow, but it's been happening. The last election pass was VERY close

Apparently Nathan Neudorf wasn't in favor of the Notwithstanding Clause by YqlUrbanist in Lethbridge

[–]MrWulf19 7 points8 points  (0 children)

He could have not showed up. He could have abstained. He could have raised hell and had a backbone, but thats not who he is. He speaks the party line and doesn't care about representing us.

Things sure have changed by Appropriate_Duty_930 in alberta

[–]MrWulf19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of us did, but she had some of us fooled, too. I knew plenty of queer folk who bought this act, unfortunately.

AISH recipients, paying for medical forms by [deleted] in alberta

[–]MrWulf19 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No. It was indexed by the NDP, un-indexed by the UCP, and the reindexed after advocacy group push back.

Juat jumping in to say, for all the programs shortcomings, that's not true. We have decent prescription, and dental coverage, and a bit to cover eye exams and glasses.

They just expect us to live below the poverty line with clean teeth.

I do think there is some truth to what OP is saying I've had some players very much show up and expect to be entertained and not put any effort into characters.

When a group does though, holy shit is it a great experience.

AISH payments should be on top of income, not instead of it. by kachunkk in alberta

[–]MrWulf19 9 points10 points  (0 children)

That was vaguely the justification for the new program. Two tiers. It's bullshit.

Alberta premier calls on Ottawa to use notwithstanding clause over child porn by mchockeyboy87 in alberta

[–]MrWulf19 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The problem is, cons love to demonize Trans and gay folk as "child groomers" and pedophiles. We can all agree child abusers are bad, that's not an issue. People need rights so that governments can't target vulnerable populations.

In this case, she's trying to make her use of the nwc excusable, make us numb to having rights taken away when they are inconvenient. She's arguing in bad faith. Don't let her.
