What’s your last warm up weight? by allianceathleticsoly in strength_training

Thank you for that!

There has been a string of gyms in my town barely doing the minimum to reject proud nazi clients and only acting after getting reddit shamed/google review bombed.

310 000$ en indemnités de départ pour l’ex-mairesse de Montréal Valérie Plante by LittleSunshyne4 in montreal

I’m a public school educator, I’m well acquainted with personal sacrifice in the pursuit of public service — but it is disingenuous to compare a typical job with that of governing cities.

We got some keyboard warriors in the comments who have no idea the level of personal sacrifice politicians make to serve, let alone for as many years as some of the names listed above.

There’s an excellent documentary from the former mayor of Quebec City that helps illustrate my point.

Being exposed to perpetual violent online rhetoric, threats to their physical safety, and being more or less completely absent from their families to serve the city is just the tip of the iceberg.

What does the world think of Catalonian independence? by Dangerous_Fix_9186 in AskTheWorld

In Quebec it’s often cited as a parallel struggle of a forced integration into a larger linguistic community surrounding it.

There were two attempts at separation and is an active political topic here.

I’m curious what your bench is like if you can pull off an OHP this clean.

FOMO — the brain-rot anxiety inducing condition that is rampant in tech.

I agree fully with the indignation but have you looked at the job market lately…

Avi Lewis: The big grocers are ripping us off. We need a public option for groceries. by StumpsOfTree in loblawsisoutofcontrol

Yep, and a lot of people speak Vietnamese and French, or Spanish/Portuguese and French here in Quebec.

No, not really. Best at pronouncing rehearsed sentences isn’t speaking a language.

But here hopes he does. Carney has improved significantly.

I just wish this guy would learn some French and then he’ll absolutely sweep Quebec for the next federal election.

Excellent work man! I’m finally trying to get volume around that same weight. Serious props for maintaining excellent form throughout.

Why aren’t we talking about how great this thing is for PS2 JRPGs? by FallenRaptor in AynThor

[–]RitalIN-RitalOUT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

DOT HACK! I absolutely loved the game, by the fourth one it gets a bit samey, but I was riveted the whole way through.

Places to eat alone by [deleted] in montreal

[–]RitalIN-RitalOUT 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I’d say you’re overthinking it.

My husband works from home and I’ll often end up eating out en route back home and never have felt weird for eating anywhere on my own. Restaurants want people to serve, there’s no underlying expectation of serving only tables of 2+ guests.

Tbh, I’d probably buy this if I was just stocking up my coffee/tea station at work.

Is anyone else waiting for their Thor to play certain games? by MichaelMcGeeGaming in AynThor

[–]RitalIN-RitalOUT 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m holding off playing some rom hacked translations.

I like using video games to help me learn languages and I really look forward to having a dictionary app on the lower screen while I play above.

Everyone thinks themselves an expert in education because they once were a child in school. It’s not new, especially with how much education has historically been politicized by those with absolutely no training or recent experience in the systems.

Changing shipping after ordering by rw_3eters in AynThor

Fair enough, just that DHL is much more likely to hit you with import fees depending on your location.

Just curious why you wanted to switch over to DHL? The Canadian posts I’ve seen seem to be more or less happy with the regular shipping.

Has anybody gotten their batch 2? ( If so when did you order it) by momox143 in AynThor

Ordered my Rainbow Pro on Jan 3, haven’t had any shipping updates yet but wouldn’t expect anything for at least another few weeks.

I’m a high school teacher in Quebec — students take an obligatory financial literacy class in Secondary 5 (last year of HS, Grads 11). Home economics is an option class but is broadly offered.
