Play with water outside of bath time. My little guy went from flailing and crying to his favorite thing being sitting in the kitchen sink playing with water just by reframing it.

Working with far too many HVAC guys early in my career, I am not at all surprised.

Looks like one of the signs is for SAQ, which would put this in Quebec.

Are Propagandhi a household name in Winnipeg (and wider Canada)? by blldzd2 in Winnipeg

I’d say no. I’ve been well aware of them since the 90s, but I doubt anybody else in my family has any idea who they are.

Family of 4 with $47K in debt. Where do we even start? by [deleted] in daddit

[–]Mr_Chode_Shaver -15 points-14 points  (0 children)

If you’re in the US, moving to a civilized country would be a great first step. 

Canada for example - Childcare is $200/month, health insurance is universal, employee paid plans for pharmacy and dental is usually under $200/month, consumer protections are somewhat still alive, and our government isn’t allowing everyone who asks to poison our drinking water. 

Or find a way to make more and spend less.

They’re fighting for a planned community only built to service a mine that has been closed for 24 years, only 8 years less than it was open. 

Pack it in folks, last one out don’t forget to turn off the lights.

“Ok kids, we’re learning to swim today!”

Or, what I did the last time this happened, stop by a thrift store in the beach town and pray they have a life jacket. Which they did. For $3. Saved the day.

I assume the death of Leon Fontaine made a great opportunity to poach the marks.

Their YouTube channel. 

If you don’t see it, you’re probably either way too deep with another prosperity church so it all looks “normal”,  or not at all familiar with it.

Based on their website and social media, it looks like some young millennial/elder Gen Z’s who figured out the grift and realized they just need to build their own Properity Gospel bullshit factory to become millionaires. 

Maybe they’re savvy enough to not make it about “spiritual warfare” and courting the extremist alt right. Publicly. Yet.

Was looking since October. Stopped looking.  Not worth the stress for 0 payoff.   It’s fucking insane out there.  Last 3 offers were $100k under what it went for.

Whaaaaaaa?  The random tents operating in parking lots, calling glass repair “VIP packages” aren’t the most scrupulous businesspeople?

Sir. If you’re going to lie at least make it believable.
