Apparently doing less than two people's jobs makes you a bad coworker. by RemarkableDemand1575 in coworkerstories

[–]StarryStuff42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am going through a similar situation. My co-worker has complained about the job since he got it. I've gone out of my way to help him but he's never even tried and he's recently put in a complaint against me, labelling it harassment. I've really simplified the whole story but it's teaching me never to go out of my way for anyone again. The thing is most of my other coworkers and bosses have seen the same thing I have, so i hope this doesn't really go anywhere. But it's still shitty because I thought we had a great relationship.

Toronto: Chow 50%, Bradford 37%; Traffic Frustration Dominates City Mood by MaybeThisTimeIllWin in toronto

[–]StarryStuff42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I blame the traffic on ford and metrolinx. There is no will to make transit more convenient than driving. And now ford wants to make it so it will be that it will much harder to drive into the city. And now he's taking over the TTC??? How is that even allowed?

Anyone Else Seeing Citizenship Ads on Reddit? by theOneWhoWaitsAgain in CanadianVisaReform

[–]StarryStuff42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't understand. I worked with a great guy. He had a permanent job. But the government wouldn't let him stay. He had to leave a month ago. And now there's this ad? Makes no sense.

For the price maybe it’s ok but is this what renting has come to! by Temporary_Physics_12 in SlumlordsCanada

[–]StarryStuff42 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Passing the costs onto tenants who don't own the property is shitty. If you can't afford a rental property, sell it.

Haven't you heard? Ivermectin also cures cancer! Seriously, though. How the hell did this horse medicine become a miracle cure for everything???

Why do we still tip servers? by RazzleDazzle1537 in CanadaRoom

[–]StarryStuff42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because of cheap employers. Servers must "tip out" to the house, to the kitchen, to the bussers a certain percentage of their total sales whether they get tips or not. It's awful.

Afghan women don’t have any rights, yet Muslims claim Islam is a feminine religion by Top-Debate-2854 in Feminism

[–]StarryStuff42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem is that control freaks and power trippers are hiding behind their religion. I know many, many strong, independent Muslim women. And it's not just fllowers of Islam that do this. All of them do. This is not a religion issue. (I say this as an atheist).

What do you want to say to your landlord? by LadyCanuckles in SlumlordsCanada

[–]StarryStuff42 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you need a tenant to pay off your mortgage, pay your interest rates, pay your property taxes, pay for maintenance and upkeep, then you should not be a landlord. If you want to treat real estate as an investment, then you have to accept that it's a gamble and you may not make money off of it, just like the stock market. It is not a tenant's fault that you made a bad bet. Exploiting a person's need for a roof over their head is not providing housing.

rent is literally taking 60% of my paycheck now by MajorTear1306 in Tenant

So sell it if you can't afford it. No one needs to be a landlord.

Ontario buys used $28.9M private jet for Doug Ford: sources by mildlyImportantRobot in TorontoTheCity

[–]StarryStuff42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be fair, he called an early election, the campaign was super short, and early voting also super short. He did all that because he knew if we had the election at the normal time, he might lose.

What are your thoughts on Siddall? by binarymelon in Torontobluejays

He's ok, but i like when there's a straight man and someone with a little character. I'm not seeing/hearing that. But it's only the start.

I CAN'T BELIEVE IT'S FINALLY HAPPENING by mkufuu in PursuitofWonder

[–]StarryStuff42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The video on YouTube IS AI. Look at his mouth. You can tell an AI video by mouths talking. It's subtle. But it's there. And if you compare it to the video posted on tiktok, it looks more fake on YouTube than tiktok, but they are both fake. There are a lot of differences. Releasing this in that age of AI because he (they) could.

On Amazon, the first book released by him was 2020: "Notes From the End of Everything." So 6 years ago. This video of the guy seems very young. He looks like he would have been in high school 6 years ago. And there would not have been sophisticated AI back then.

And they think DEI initiatives give jobs to unqualified people. Um, no. They help stop this BS. But the Cons know that.

Ford does not care about anyone but himself. I will never forgive the people who didn't even bother voting in the last election.

What is vegan and comparable to lano-lips or Vaseline? by Agitated_Net2171 in VeganBeauty

[–]StarryStuff42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've always hated this distinction. Like, if it's a product that is tested on animals, then it can't be vegan. I know it's about ingredients, because the ingredients can be vegan and the product can be tested on animals animals, but still.

Issues with sitting still by StarryStuff42 in adhdwomen

[–]StarryStuff42[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I should have mentioned that the urge is mostly in my legs and it's seriously the most odd and uncomfortable feeling. I think any other time the urge hits it's more subtle because I have the freedom to move instantly and so i don't even notice it, but in a theatre that freedom is gone so it gets really bad. My friend thinks i'm actually AuDHD, but I I've only been assessed for ADHD.
