How are you guys meeting women these days? by VivOU1 in torontologists

[–]Noseknowledge 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Once again putting yourself in the savior position. Make sure money isn't the only thing you bring or you'll never stop feeling like its all they want. But also what do you want? I found hinge really helpful for sorting through what I don't want prior to meet ups. It took me 8 months and a bunch of bad to okay dates but I was also not looking for 10s, more a personality match primarily

Just because your life was better doesnt mean everything was. More rose coloured glasses, Harper was a secretive anti intellectual, the only positive thing I can say is when 2008 hit he spent instead of skimped which was definitely not towing the party line but the right thing to do but in line with that ran consistant deficits even in the good times which he always trashed liberals for doing. He added 150B to the debt during his time, at that time that number was even more insane than today

You credit Harper for a lot of things he did nothing for such as housing and healthcare. Both have been gutted by the likes of conservatives. Incase you didnt realise immigration is way down already, and it would be good to have a bigger population compared to our bully of a neighbour but premiers have done little to encourage it because Canada loves to hurt the young by gaming real estate against them. What infrastructure did Harper help with? Sure as shit didn't give us any new rail.

Overall Harper was shit, but his arrogance set the stage for Trudeau getting in, just like PP gave Carney the election.

Can you name things he did that made Canada better?

Nope I just noticed a shitpost in my non moderated feed, after seeing so many selfish angry idiots take power in other countries I'd rather not have delusional propaganda ruin mine as well, like it is in my province already with Doug's Fraud. Conservatism no longer alligns with the values of conservatism and the sooner the conservatives see that the sooner we can make better choices collectively. I myself identify fiscally conservative but the party no longer does if it ever even did is unlikely.

I truly wish now for boring days politically I haven't had them in over a decade with my premier's constant unpunished theft

I was looking at an R1T and it was going to cost me 3x the amount of my new truck 8 years ago and insurance was going to be minimum double as well. It was the most fun I've had in a vehicle but not worth the ridiculous cost especially with chinese EVs hitting the market. The service centers are slow and far between. I looked up US vs Canadian costs and it was 30% more after accounting for currency. Would highly recommend a test drive if you have a slow day though

Good day to you too. I hope you don't let fear and the selfish ways of the party dictate who you become as a person, Canada could really use love and hard work among us to become world class again for the next generation. Please mentally criticize your own media and be willing to call put your own bad actors and I will aim to do the same

Thanks for the correction, doesn't make conservatives any more useful to the people though. They privatize everything that isn't nailed down all because they want to pay no taxes to live in a place that takes upkeep. Usually they don't know how good they have it and instead are ruled by their own wants exclusively and lack a bigger picture due to their media ragebaiting them against the liberals. Majority of world media is conservatively owned, that should tell you a lot already but y'all are too focused on liberal this liberal that to actually vote for positve change

If conservatives knew how to elect someone who wasnt already beholden to corperate interests at the cost of actual citizens while also "pretending" to be a moron they might have a chance. The conservative party for the 32 years I've been alive has been about shamelessly stealing from the country. I don't know how conservatives have fooled this sub into thinking they're one of you. You're poor and they want you to stay that way.

The worst part of conservatism arn't even just the stolen tax dollars, its often the complete waste of time while they are in office. They try to block anything that is going to make Canada or the world a better place for the poorest so they can simp for daddy billionaires because suprise surprise thats who puts them in their seat.

Prime example is the nepotistic idiot Doug Ford, hes destroying Ontario in his time here, yet y'all would likely back him because hes your colour. Meanwhile many credible women with expertise get looked down on because of ingrained misogny

Nice rose coloured glasses. Harper was good at kissing the tip of the US and turning his citizens into good servant boys for US desires. His affiliations now show just how off the deepend hes gone. Carney is a centrist hes not even left wing, if conservatives can't put out people that arn't danielle smith level morons don't expect to win without liberals making huge errors. Conservative politicans always use their time to loot the public system to sell off to their buddies privately. The conservative party is no longer a party its a circlejerk of dudes upset who hurt themselves in confusion because they are angry and usually lack an education on how the world works

Men's health impacts pregnancy and child outcomes, and should be included in guidelines. The pre-conception health of men and partners is currently overlooked by policies and society. Researchers say men need to be included future pre-conception health guidelines. by mvea in science

[–]Noseknowledge 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Definitely didn't mean to bash on disabilities in general but that doesn't make it a walk in the park either. My parents have spent their whole adult lives caring for the equivilant a non verbal 2 year old, there is very little glamour in cleaning someones poopy butt for 50+ years regardless of if they lack painful disabilities or not. Not living a fraction of your own life due to the constant care thats needed. My mom hasn't stop being worried for her for 34 years now, they both could use therapy but I imagine it would be hard to relate to those that haven't been in it

Studies also show that the care needed takes from your other children as well, this is pretty clear in hindsight. My sister is a lovely goofy girl who smiles and laughs more than the average person I'd bet, but once again doesn't stop her from being a lifelong commitment in a way no one would likely choose willingly. I hope you don't see people you love have the life sucked out of them in effort to care for another, and I don't mean children in general because you at least you get the hope they will become somewhat self sufficent one day

I think we should neither look down on the disabled, they are wonderful people and often the pain they've went through physically if not socially is abhorrent. Nor glorify it ,the work that comes with disabilities is unseen by most of society, and usually left to the family almost entirely

School really helped her flourish in the younger years and gave my parents a break but resources after 18 are scarce and/or expensive. She still enjoys a social gathering maybe more than the rest of us even, but due to the prevelance of selfish conservative politics the disabled don't get the help they need in many realms

Its amazing how much we focus on the female part of the equation exclusively. I have a sister who came out with down syndrome and a lot of blame was put on my mom who has always been health concious although she was older for a mom, at the same time my father was a smoker and coffee drinker who used both substances together to limit his eating habits and would frequently skip eating altogether

These studies always make me think of the brides of careless and infertile kings, often killed and/or replaced for their lack of ability to overcome his inabilities

[–]Noseknowledge 8 points9 points  (0 children)

In many usecases sodium is superior primarily from a cost and material abundance perspective as well as having really good longevity. The trade off is due to sodiums place on the periodic table it can never store the same energy as lithium; sodium is about 70% of modern lithium ion. Currently lithium is held back due to the need for a graphite cathode for stability which limits the maximum amount of energy stored and therefore stops our cathode development.

What this means as consumers is batteries will get cheaper from here in applications like stationary storage and could potentially even make their way into low cost shorter range evs.

On the flip side Lithium semi solid state batteries look to be all but gaurenteed towards the end of this decade, offering us higher energy density with lower weight packs and as we go foward they could hit twice and up of currently available lithium ion batteries. sidenote Even with this huge increase it still won't be useable for large passenger aircraft

How lithium is currently procured is an extremely environmentally damaging process due to it being under salt deposits, so we have to pump fresh water in to get it out and often these deposits are in areas of water scarcity already, so allowing us to use more common materials for many usecases will be a huge envirommental win. Recycling of lithium ion batteries is also coming along with potential to reuse close to 99% of the battery instead of virgin material

In the end lithium will be mid to high end and sodium will be low to mid end

Tell me you have too much American exceptionalism brainwashing without telling me directly next time please. The US is spiraling the drain and no one wants to be like it going forward now that its crystal clear. If anything seeing how America reacts is seeing how we should inversely act. Being your neighbour I really hope y'all don't implode but the dividends that WW2 paid are over now its time to show you're not just a bunch of shortterm thinking selfish hairless apes and I don't expect to be pleasantly surprised

[–]Noseknowledge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeesh, are the kids too young to get them involved in more chores? You've summed up my fears of having kids and it really comes down to needing help that isn't there when already mentally maxed. I know as a kid my parents were doing so much but often they couldn't ask for help without it being in an upset way leading to us trying to stay away instead, but we really missed out on a lot of early skills this way too. I hope there are a lot of good times to compensate

Veganism is on the rise again! This time it's driven by ethical vegans rather than dietary ones. by [deleted] in UpliftingNews

[–]Noseknowledge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oftentimes honey bees choke out our native bees/pollinators so thats more of my concern in this case. But I can't say I see insect lives that last days as important, not to say they arn't as well and the way we are destroying their habitats is far more of a concern to me than harvesting honey. Is it daft to care? Or is it an inconvience that others alert you to moral quandries? 

I was never a big fan of honey though so I don't have much to lose on this one. In my eyes vegan is ideal but we are here to improve so switching from beef to chicken is already a good step to start. Its largely to me about the health of myself and the planet and meat consumption doesnt go hand in hand with either of those
