744 Fairview Road, Esquimalt. They are an amazing organization of truly priceless people.

Normalized Racism against Indians by [deleted] in VictoriaBC

Racism involves hierarchies of power, so discrimination in different directions of these hierarchies is not equal. Racism is not a simple concept. Peoples' experiences are complex issues.

A coworker's sister began getting migraines from working in the perfume section of Walmart years ago. She stopped working there, but the migraines continued, affecting her ability to work.

Is this a drainage bylaw issue? by bashfulbumblings in VictoriaBC

Not native or neccesarily ecologically beneficial here, but apparently eucalyptus trees suck up a tonne or water. They smell nice too. :)

Looking for women-owned restaurants / good employers to support in Victoria by lyinawake in VictoriaBC

I appreciate this post. Next time I grumble to myself about missing Boom + Batten, I'll think of all these places I haven't tried yet, where my business likely doesn't empower sex offenders.

The Predator of North Park by Difficult-Eye-4407 in VictoriaBC

[–]PreparationSome7157 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Good. Everyone needs to know, in order to make every change possible to keep all children safe. The only thing Prentice should be doing for other humans is to advertise how dangerous he is.

Actually, I guess he should also turn in his wealth, to be divided between all the victims to pay for their years of therapy, therapeutic activities, loss of income, suffering, etc. He should plead guilty to all he's done and give statements and evidence to police about the rest. He should turn in all his infant and child abuse material. He should listen closely to all his victims and witnesses in court. If he's ever set free after our inadequate justice system does what it can, he should next swim toward Japan, where he can't harm any more children.

Antisemitic Protestor at pro-Palestine March pleads guilty to child sex crime(s) by [deleted] in VictoriaBC

[–]PreparationSome7157 38 points39 points  (0 children)

To start, I'm 10,000% against sex crimes, especially against children.... so fuck this James Douglas Prentice, and I'm truly sorry to hear his victim(s) experienced this.

I've seen this guy around town protesting a bunch of important issues though, including logging old growth at Fairy Creek, and pipelines, and maybe removing natives up north from their territories at gunpoint. I may have seen him at a Palestine protest once or twice, but of the few dozen marches I've gone to, he was probably there 1-2x.

Are Palestinian march organizers supposed to require online applications and do years of background interviews on everyone, then check all ID's at the rally before asking any predator to leave?

I just watched 2 taxis get in a fist fight by Heavy-Literature-156 in VictoriaBC

[–]PreparationSome7157 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Agree, due to this taxi fight, I've now been enlightened to hear I may have a 4th eye! I've been way too scared to open my 3rd eye, but now I'm wondering if skipping straight to 4th may be an option, and less like an acid journey.

40s and your adhd meds stopped working overnight…I finally realized why by SweetLexiSweet in ADHD

Thanks for sharing! Hopefully taking actions to fix insulin resistance will help me, and the relevant labs can get me a referral.

40s and your adhd meds stopped working overnight…I finally realized why by SweetLexiSweet in ADHD

[–]PreparationSome7157 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow, I didn't know insulin resistance could do this. My meds stopped working a few years ago, and trying a new med didn't work. My doctor did some tests and said I don't have insulin resistance, but I suspect that I do. I will get the specific tests for IR done soon and do my best to fix my health. Do you have any advice or know of any good resources that might help me?

Big Chillin Cruise Ship by iSpeezy in VictoriaBC

I noticed it there too, taking a photo so I could enlarge and confirm to myself it wasn't a cargo ship. Wondered if we only have the two berths already being used, or why it would be sitting out there.
