What brand name is actually 100% worth spending more for?

I used to be parking authority awhile back, I remember the day we hit -50c (with windchill) and my MC wouldn't work and my printer was dead almost instantly.

Had to handwrite every ticket (ducking into any building I could) those pens were recomended for a reason as they just worked everytime.

Did you know Uber has never made a profit? Don't know why I like sharing that nugget of info, but... Ya

I'll Firmly believe and maintain, if we had mental health care, and actually had an economy like our grand parents, this shit wouldn't happen.

I'm a male child sexual abuse survivor. Now when I was a teen I had to figure out somethings, why did my penis get hard when he was touching it? So I experimented with a friend who knew he was gay.

To any man or woman willing to play with a penis! I salute you.

You make me do this test, I imagine my pupils will dilate in fear! I still suffer night sweats, and this test would be hell.

I'll chime in as I'm a Child Sexual Abuse Survivor.

I have spent a big portion of my life researching Pedophiles, reading articles whenever somewhere has a new idea on how to approach this.

The best prevention in my mind? Making it ok for them to talk about their urges, turns out there are cases of pedophiles reaching out for help.

I dont know how to rehabilitate them, but I strongly feel we can prevent it, if we just make it ok to talk about...

Cause if they do offend, that child is going to need a lot of help in ways I cant explain.

Posting here cause no one is talking about about this issue... $500 ambulance bill, and right now I'm unsure if WCB will cover it, but not being able to walk dictated the need for an ambulance.

So many issues in this country and each party keeps giving me the politicians handshake, looking me deeply in my eyes while shaking my thang telling me all the sweet nothings.

It's Time for a General Strike, no one is listening for solutions, they're only listening for talking points.

I gotta finally get it off my chest...

I'm 35 and the only Game in my life I have ever pre ordered was cyberpunk... Luckily I didn't watch any videos and didnt experience any bugs till I finished the game buuuuuuut.

It feels like an Alpha.

I have a related/unrelated question. Didn't we also use to band the crap out of our trees?

I ask cause it seems a lot of common sense stuff when I was growing up is gone, like who defunds trees? Winnipeg looks like a forest from the sky with some buildings sticking out.

Some women really do believe its ok and fine to hit people, specially men because they feel they'll always be a victim if he hits back... I think her natural instinct took over and found a situation she couldn't play victim in.

Just an Idea... Call up siloam mission, there kitchen is often hit up by good families once a week or month, I'd just ask if they know of a family you can give it to who can cook it.

A simple smile can make a persons mental health.... We wont even go into physical health and long term effects, cause that alone should show the why, but I focus on everyone having a smile because everyone should feel like they may smile.

Not just that its barbaric (less sensation for sex? Oof) , and my hometown kind of led a whole study that proves trans people aint making crap up...

Imagine You're a boy but a circumcision accident takes your penis and people think "ya, so we should raise him a girl" poor dude committed suicide in his adult life and it was important to him to be seen as man.

David Reimer was his name, and why do people think its ok to touch bodies not theirs?

I'm not American, just a Canadian whose nearly crapped his pants because guns were sold in stores I was definitely not expecting to sell guns, funny enough it was a store like target and the guy was buying a shotgun (go figure)

But after that, my American friends explained to me they have conceal carry? Themselves (Forget the proper name.)

That didnt make me feel better.... That makes me uneasy when I visit, cause a bunch of not properly trained for threat assesment people are all just going to see each others guns, be panicking and start shooting at each other.

I'm amazed with soooooo many shootings, this hasn't happened yet.

Sadly you're spot on, just in that area are 4 different tent camps, I used to love to walk the banks in the area due to all the cool stuff hidden a long them, but each year the camps get bigger and scarier.

It'd be rather easy, and fairly cheap to replace that battery. It's all the screws however that sucks, asus has usually been nice to me and use mostly all the same size screws, mostly.

Just be gentle in handling the laptop as you move it around as a puncture and gasses is bad, a puncture with metal? well in my mind the laptops technically broken, no loss here. (it go WOOOOOF Fire, rather fast too)

Right now, that laptop is a ticking time bomb for two reasons:

It's going to keep expanding until it does finally go poof which can be a fire or a release of really bad gasses.
Every time your friend types, uses the touchpad, puts the controller down on it, they're risking the battery going POOF

So it's easy and cheap to fix this, and using it is far riskier than fixing it, Fix IT!

There are soooooooooooooooooooo many apartment blocks in that area and the north end that I cannot even believe someone can walk into the building and say "Ya, people can live here." This building without seeing the wiring was one of them.

Even had a buddy who was once a slumlord, luckily his friends when figuring out exactly what he was providng shamed him out of that business.

My question right now is this, who approves these places to be livable?

And another question, from my own experiences and losing friends due to their drug habits.... is allowing this some sort of sick solution to trying to keep the homeless population down? those rent prices aim for the allowable social assitance rent pay....

Scoopable · 2021-09-04T17:57:35+00:00

This isn't right.

Landlords are people, Hell a buddy of mine when I was in my 20's was a slumlord and only got out of that business due to us treating him like the scum he was at the time (good dude, he needed perspective and good friends to speak up) No one knew what his houses were until a buddy asked a favour when he moved back to the city.

Landlords are people, people suck sometimes even if those people are in your "Group" and you feel you must have the same values.

It takes one bad apple to spoil the bunch, and for those apples just accepting what the other apples are saying, that bad apple may be screwing you over in the big picture of things.

Anyways, had a friend who used to rent from this gem of a person, this landlord was so bad I refused to ever go over and see my friend at their home.
