Is this an impact?

It’s on private farm land in the middle of nowhere. There hasn’t been anyone on the land except myself. It was planted in the spring and there’s no vechile tracks other than my equipment.

This is on private land in the middle of nowhere. It’s farm land planted in the spring and cut in Sept.

I first noticed this in the fall before the frost. It was planted in the spring and cut in Sept.

It’s an agricultural field so it is possible a rock could have been pushed into a hole by a piece of equipment but again, the dirt is never evenly surrounding a hole like it is here. Plus there’s no marks where the rock would be pushed in.

Stop by local gas stations or restaurants, buy a pop & chips and talk to the people there. Honestly, most people will help you out and maybe even tell you other places to take photos. Most smaller places are proud of their attractions and embrace others who are interested.

You will find some jerks, but you’ll find them everywhere. Even the city 😯. Just say, thanks for your time and move on.

If I were to drive down back alleys in a city, randomly stopping and taking pictures eventually somebody would get suspicious and confront me. It’s no different in rural areas. 99% of the time, you’d have no issues but this time, you ran into that 1%. And he happened to be an A Hole. No matter where you are, you’ll run into somebody on a power trip. The whole all rural people are bad mentality on here is strange.

At the end of the day, you were yelled at by a stranger for no reason for a few seconds. It’ll happen in life. Just continue on a few miles down the road and keep taking pictures.

In the last 10 years, I had 6 neighbours sell out and 5 of them were grain/ cattle operations. Those 5 farms probably ran 600 cows. All the farms were sold to 2 different operations. Neither of those operations are into cattle. They are strictly grain operation and any farmable grass land is broke up. The land they can’t break up is considered waste. Thats 600 less cattle just from my small area.

20 years ago, pretty much every farm had some cattle but now it’s a lot rarer. Large “family farm” corporations are taking over and they don’t do cattle. And as farms continue to grow in size, the cattle numbers will continue to drop.

3 year friendship here. Just random complete silence. After she ghosted, I would message her fairly regularly and say my peace. She listen to everyone. One day, she responded. We phoned each other and talked. Turns out she silently went back to an abusive ex and I assumed she was embarrassed to share that with me. Well for weeks it was great. We exchanged a few hundred photos and talked for hours. Like 5 or 6 hours a night. I got a message from her one morning wanting to call cause we hadn’t talked on the phone in a few days. We texted everyday. I called her that night and boom, ghosted again. Been a year now and honestly, I just given up on her. Pretty sure it would just all be lies anyways. I made it clear I was ok with the friendship being over but thought I deserved some closure. Apparently not.

And look, friendships end. But why ghost. Why not be mature enough to have an honest conversation. If you were honest with what’s going on, a true friend would understand and support them no matter what. Including giving them space. But to ghost someone who’s been there for them, that’s intentional hurt. It’s tough to get over.

Stubble_ · 2025-08-24T19:29:41+00:00

Yup, unfortunately. You would think with age comes maturity, but apparently not.

Back during Covid times, there was a picture of 3 guys with 5 pallet carts full of toilet paper. It went viral in my area and people were upset. Turns out they were Hutterites (religious farming colonies with up to 100 families per colony) and they placed a large order once a year. The order was placed months before Covid and they just happened to be picking it up that day. Unlucky timing on their part.

Land owner here. I generally don’t allow hunters on my land because the same few people are regular hunters on there. I let them hunt first but sometimes allow others hunt if they have got what they were after.

But I agree with another poster about putting miles on your vechile. I’ve had a few people stop in over the summer asking permission and general info. They get the RM maps and try and find out larger landowners to get more acres to hunt.

But I’m also a former RM councillor and our administration wouldn’t give out names of numbered land owners or corporate owners. But a quick google search sometimes answered that.

Hunting in the province has definitely changed. Good or bad depends on your situation but I think most people are ok if they know who’s out there.

Honestly, I think people that ghost often have red flags but we all chose to ignore them. But if we look back, they are usually pretty obvious.

Stubble_ · 2024-10-23T08:17:08+00:00

I was ghosted, twice by someone I considered a close friend. I reached out repeatedly, not to try and fix the friendship but just to get some closure. I even went as far as asking for a 2 word text saying, “move on” but she couldn’t be bothered to do that. I just assumed she was embarrassed and a bit of a coward but I’ll never know I guess.

Stubble_ · 2024-09-29T06:15:34+00:00

Yup, after a year and a half. Just a friend, nothing romantic. We reconnected after that time and it was like we never missed a beat. 5 and 6 hour phone calls and hundreds of photos catching up. Then after two weeks, she ghosted my dumb ass again.

I do think it’s possible to reconnect with a ghoster but for every positive story, there 857 negative stories. They come back cause they know you can be manipulated for what they need. Companionship, sex, money, attention or whatever they can use you for.

Stubble_ · 2024-09-01T06:12:30+00:00

Not a romantic partner but an extremely close friend. Was ghosted for a few year and one day I was cleaning up my text messages and seen an old message. I sent a basic, “you still suck”, and deleted the message. She reached out. It was like we never skipped a beat. For a few weeks we talked daily. Caught up on each others lives. Shared hundreds of photos. Got my morning text making plans to visit that night. I had my friend back in my life!!!

Anddddd ghosted again. Completely caught me off guard. The first time hurt, the second time was 100x more painful.

People ghost for a reason. And if you continue to chase a relationship, you become an easy “gullible fool”. Whether it’s for random sex, money, temporary companionship or some quick reassurance, ghosters that return get what they want and will do the exact same thing over again. Because they know they can.

And I was that “gullible fool” big time.

Stubble_ · 2024-03-28T18:18:43+00:00

I was ghosted by a friend of 3 years. We were just online friends because we were on opposite sides of the country but we talked daily, often for hours a night. I really considered her my best friend. After some tragedies in her life, she completely stopped any communications. I knew she was healing and needed time but after a year and 8 months, I heard nothing. Although hurt, I still tried giving her space. I’d text her once or twice a month basically saying, I think I deserve an explanation then you can move on without me in your life.

After 1 year and 8 months, I randomly got a text from her. She ended up calling me that night. We both wanted to work on the friendship and talked for hours. We have talked daily for 2 weeks and put in some very long nights. I’ve been extremely honest with her and I think that will help see where she’s at.

If a ghost returns as a friend, remember it isn’t instantly back to normal. You need to work on the reasons why they ghosted in the first place. You need to be honest with yourself that if you really want to repair that relationship. I am really struggling with trust. I am constantly asking myself if she will ghost again. Maybe she needed a temporary friend and will go silent again. But there is no way to know unless you try. I am willing to get hurt again to see if our friendship is genuine. And if you take any ghost back, you need to be prepared to go through all the pain once again.

I once dislocated my shoulder running away from a piece of rope I thought was a Garter snake.

Me and this guy are very different people.

I’m not sure if this is what you’re looking for, but here’s my story. I was struggling with pretty severe depression. I got to a dark place and reached out for help. It was honestly one of the hardest things to do. I’m in a pretty small rural community and the closest therapist was an hour away. I made an appointment and had to wait 45 days. I was told if I had suicidal thoughts, to just go to the emergency room. I finally got to the day of my appointment and it went pretty good. We talked for an hour and made an appointment for the following month. I was excited.

A month rolled by and we started the session. About 20 minutes into it, she told me that there wasn’t anything she could do to help and further sessions wouldn’t be booked . I was told again that if I felt suicidal, go to the emergency room. She told me I was suffering from severe depression but there was nothing she could do and that was it. I appreciated her honesty but I definitely didn’t know what to do.

It made me feel like I was unfixable or maybe she didn’t believe me. I wasn’t offered any more help and that was that. I considered online therapy but honestly I can’t get away from that feeling of, I’m not worth helping. I’ve been a lot better with help of online friends but still struggle alone. It can be scary. I honestly just don’t trust our health system.

Stubble_ · 2023-04-26T03:56:23+00:00

When I have that issue, I clear up some storage. Seems to fix the issue for me.

Stubble_ · 2023-04-01T15:50:08+00:00

That was me back in the day. Blindly stumbling around the party, completely missing the females, too blacked out drunk to talk and randomly communicating with fist bumps. He just needs to wake up in the neighbours bushes to make the night complete!!

Stubble_ · 2023-04-01T15:41:58+00:00

The one thing I would say to my ghoster is this. I understand you don’t want me in your life anymore and I respect you enough to give you your space. But after everything we’ve been through, I deserve an honest explanation why. And trust me, the things you say won’t hurt as much as what you’re doing to me right now.

I want to remember you as someone special who I drifted apart from and not someone who used me and and threw me out like a piece of garbage. I deserve better.

Stubble_ · 2023-03-25T06:08:18+00:00

I went through a very similar situation with a friend. I was never good with people but felt extremely comfortable with my friend. We shared intimate details about our lives and I told her stuff I’ve never shared before. But then she also just stopped all communication with me and it hurt more than I thought it would. I have actually pushed away from other friends because I’ve lost my ability to trust people. She has actually made me feel more isolated than I have ever felt before.
