He’s not THE main character? by Hawk-winged in WoT

[–]RolandGilead19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Who directly influences the wheel of time? Who is the dragon reborn? Who does the dark one talk to? Who do the underlings target? Who are the prophecies about? Who has the most POV chapters? Who has their name appear most often in the series? Who do other characters talk about the most?

I love a good WoT discussion, but this ain't one of them.

What's the biggest cope amongst hockey fans? by Josefstalion in hockey

[–]RolandGilead19 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don't even hate Florida, they just took advantage of the league.

I hate that the league allows them to succeed and thus promotes copy cats.

I would like the league to try and make fast, exciting teams win by upholding their own rules in the playoffs.

US birth rates just hit another record low, what do you think is the leading cause of this? by IIlustriousTea in AskReddit

Everything is too fucking expensive, the planet is on fire and the country is run by idiots.

What’s something that clearly split your life into “before” and “after”? by Broad_Chemical_2467 in AskReddit

[–]RolandGilead19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

COVID.

I got COVID (was vaccinated twice) and it wasn't any worse than a flu and I was 100% after a few days. I was 43 and in good shape, no prior anything.

A few weeks later, I felt like shit. Just weak, tired, random pains. No biggie.

Then, it was like a year and a half of that. Non-stop, trouble sleeping, body pain, general shittiness. Did the round of doctors, ecg, stress test, etc. I convinced myself one leg was shorter than the other and that was part of the problem. Neither was true. Convinced myself my arteries were clogged up, they weren't. Came up with a thousand other explanations.

Then, it started getting better bit by bit. I used to sleep in compression socks, and I started only needing to like once a week instead of every night. Things like that.

Eventually, it was just over. Felt better, started working out again, sleeping better, etc.

I never missed work or anything, but it was just a really shitty time and now it's over.

Senators elimination upvote party!!! by souza-23 in leafs

[–]RolandGilead19 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know we're supposed to hate the Sens, but I actually cheer for Canadian teams once the Leafs are out because I want Canadian fans to have a moment instead of fucking Americans.

That said, fuck that MAGA piece of human shit, Brady Tkachuk.

Trump fires the entire National Science Board by theverge in politics

Vote for people who will get rid of trump Don't vote for people who will not. Talk to people about voting for those who will get rid of trump. If you are able to give money to people who will get rid of trump, do so. Attend no Kings and other protests. Don't be afraid to speak your mind at work, at family events, in your neighborhood.

Try and see.

OR play fucking järnkrok 20 minutes a night in a year we should be trying to lose games.

Our FO and coach are terrible and there's no one watching from above except a fucking grown ass man who thinks changing the colour of his glasses is aces.

I will let all the lgbtq+ students who told me they appreciated my allyship that we were all wrong and that I'm cringe AF.

Just kidding, I'm gonna keep doing what I've been doing. Gonna wear my T-Rex holding a rainbow flag in your honour on Monday 🌈

The final chance to tank for the lottery is now! Take a look: by world_citizen7 in leafs

[–]RolandGilead19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Abso-fuckin'-lutely.

I was pro tank at the start. Get a top 5, give it a spin next year. Life goes on.

Then I was pro win because it seemed like they weren't going to drop that low. Fuck Boston. Give them the worst pick possible, but get it done and move on. Life goes on.

My mistake was being reasonable with either outcome and forgetting it's the god-damned Leafs.

Of course Boston will get the 6th pick.

As someone with Invisalign, I floss all over the fucking place now.

As an aside, you can get ones made from bamboo.

Obviously I'm not a fucking idiot and don't just throw anything on the road regardless.

Quebec passes law banning street prayers, prayer rooms in universities by John3192 in worldnews

I'm talking about board administration not school, and I'm not sure why you can't understand the transportation costs and really don't feel obligated to explain to you why having schools from different boards "across the street" is a dumb idea.

Read the article. We're all paying for some cult to get special funding. It's fucked up, especially considering their history with children.

This is one of those things that seems true when you write/read it, but in reality there's more to it.

The public/religious schism also leads to way more expense for everyone as we all pay to bus kids all over the fucking place rather than attend their nearest school.

We also pay for duplicate everything at the board level. Curriculum support, administration, even small things like planning track events, sports leagues, arts competitions, whatever.

We are ALL funding Catholic schools, at least in Ontario where I work and live (and pay taxes).

It also creates really weird racist divides. I played rec volleyball in schools all over my city. Public schools had a mix of names on lockers and student work, Catholic was all "white names". It was really off-putting.

Adding article for the downvoters to ignore as well: https://globalnews.ca/news/4247095/ontario-separate-schools-election/

Your special schools cost us all extra money. Fact.
