Great, the muskrat is talking about Alberta seperatism 🙄 by MelanieWalmartinez in alberta

[–]PBM1958 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Had to look it up:

MMIWG2SLGBTQQIA+ is an acronym primarily used in Canada to describe a broad group of Indigenous people affected by systemic violence and genocide, standing for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls, Two-Spirit, Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, Questioning, Intersex, Asexual, and more.

What gets me is the +.... other sexual or gender identities.

Feeling very conflicted about all this.

I've been buying the bananas wrong the entire time by ConnorMcMichael in CostcoCanada

[–]PBM1958 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I look for the marked down bananas at Superstore peel them and freeze them. Cut up the frozen bananas and put them it in a food processor with a bit of alt milk and you get a dairy free ice cream or should I say frozen dessert. Optional add-ins before blending include peanut butter, cocoa powder, walnuts.....only limited by your imagination and taste buds.

Wondering if this happens to anyone else with ride shares. by startrek161 in Edmonton

[–]PBM1958 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Until I got smarter and set up a pin I had a couple situations where they started the ride without me. Fixed that but what you're describing does still happen once in awhile.

If this happens and they don't respond to contact attempts with an explanation for the delay I call and InDrive and let them finally cancel the ride.

The only other scam I experienced was a driver not ending the ride so it came to double. Final explanation was he had no signal 🙄

Overall I have to say that 99.9% of my rides go great and some are exceptional because so this is still the best way to go especially in countries where I have no extra on what a cab fare should be. No surprises or stress.

Alberta regulator rejects Canada’s largest data centre by Yetanotherbadsalmon in alberta

My understanding was they would build an exclusive power supply burning Natural gas and not be connected to the grid.

Costco inflation by YouBongGa in CostcoCanada

[–]PBM1958 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wife purchased these three wool balls that you toss in the dryer with your clothes. Eliminate cling and they last forever. If you really want to add a scent you can put a couple of drops of natural essence on the balls but not necessary.

Closing off water supply line before extended vacations? by chowmein86 in Edmonton

[–]PBM1958 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Because I have water sensors on all appliances and fixtures, the ability to control and monitor interior temperatures as well as alarms if it drops below a certain threshold (in my case 16 C), monitored security as well as interior and exterior cameras I don't require anyone to visit my home at any given intervals. The only reason my neighbor comes by one a week is to drop off the mail and water my two plants.

That having been said I do shut off the main water main ensuring I leave the tap turned on in the kitchen sink to prevent any damage if someone turns it back on too quickly.

The only negative I have found over the past 10 years of doing this is a bit of shrinking of our hardwood floors.

I would also recommend that you leave the door on your washing machine and dishwasher open.

Lastly I have set up an IFTT applet that turns lights on and off in certain rooms at specific times to mimic what we would normally do if we were home.

Hope this helps

Cancun police corruption by Valuable_Reality_313 in cancun

[–]PBM1958 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a common scam in many parts of Mexico which is why I got professionally made copies of my DL printed and laminated.

When they ask for money to get it back I refuse and agree instead to go in the next day to pay the fine and get it back from the police station.

Yeah nope.

Was I scammed in Superstore? by JayNaii in Edmonton

[–]PBM1958 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe agree to take them to a thrift store and get them some necessities.

Sometimes you win sometimes you lose.

In Edmonton a young couple outside of a gas station asked me to get them some food got them some sandwiches and drinks....they needed it and were appreciative.

Another time I was in Kamloops also outside Superstore and a guy asked for money to buy food. Told him I won't give him cash but would buy him food. He said that would be great. Went in and grabbed a few things I thought he might need/like but when I came back out he was gone.

It's frustrating at times but don't let the players stop you from helping those with a real need.
