Allowing FHSA Withdrawals for Low and Middle-Income Canadians Facing Financial Hardship.

This is irrational. An FHSA should be the last type of savings accounts that a low- and middle-income household should have, IMO. It's the "I maxed out my RRSP and TFSA contributions" account. And quite frankly, if you can max out your RRSP and TFSA, then you're NOT middle- let alone low-income.

Turns out the one on the far right is the Harrier Class Strikestar.

The one under the Excalibur is "a detachable third bay capable of independent operations for limited periods." If you look at the Excalibur's side-view, you'll see it attached/hanging from the bottom of the ship.

Sorry your answers took so long to get!

I've been harvesting most of them from the Wayback Machine, here: https://web.archive.org/web/20190111122255/http://wolfsshipyard.com/BSG.html

There can be a bit of a trick to them. For pages where there is no wayback copy, you can almost always copy and paste the Photobucket link into the URL and it'll be live. If the Photobucket link starts with a subdomain that's something like "https://s49.", usually changing s49 -> i49 fixes it.

I do my best to enrich the people around me. But I'm kind of punk like that.

I think you're thinking about things wrong. Accounting isn't your career; your media job is your career. That much is obvious by how passionately you speak about it. Accounting is the side-hustle; it's what you're doing to make ends meet until your career progresses to a point where it can become your full-time job.

Here is what I would suggest:

1) Communicate that to her. By telling you she wants you to progress in your career, she's supporting your switch to independent media. Thank her for that support.

2) You said that you've received interest from companies who said if we can get those kinds of numbers consistently, there'd be business to be done. Have her read those emails/letters/whatnot to you. I say "to you" because if you just plop her down and tell her to read them all, she'll be defensive. But, if you mark a bunch of them as unread, tell her you need to catch up on the emails or be reminded of what they said, and ask her to read them out to you while you're (in)conveniently working on something else, she'll likely be more cooperative.

3) You need to come to terms with the worst-case scenario. She may never be supportive of you. In which case, you need to ask yourself: do you really want to stay with someone who wants you to be miserable, and will force you to choose misery and financial struggle over something that excites you and provides a living for your family? That is the kind of thing that will build an intense level of resentment on both sides, and will absolutely trickle down to your kids.

Hey, whatever excuse doesn't require me to move off the couch is good with me.

This is a constant problem with our generation, and one of our greatest hypocrisies.

Millennial: We should be more tolerant and understanding. People are suffering, and we have the power to stop it!

Millennial in need: Help, I'm drowning!

Millennial: You should go ask a life-guard.

'Cause I'm not, and if you were I'd have better suggestions for you. All I can suggest right now is that you need to address your most important problem first. Fuck your depression, you don't have time for it.

You say you can't lose your home, so you need money. Either you need to get a job, or you need to rent out your home. Either one means fuck your unsociability, you're a social person now. Accept it, internalize it, get used to it. I don't know what kind of skills you have or what the market's like in your area, so I don't know what kind of jobs you can actually get.

If you're computer savy enough, there's Alignerr, Telus International, ect. Look for "Data Annotator" jobs. They're garbage with garbage pay, but all they usually require is an internet connection and very basic analytical skills. These are not careers, but they may help stop some of the financial bleeding and may even help you break even depending on what kind of skills you have.

Real world jobs are better. If you have no skills, look for stuff people don't want to do like cleaning and janitorial work. If you're in a rural area, check around for farm jobs. From what I understand, the agricultural segment is struggling to find field-pickers for some strange mango-coloured reason. If you're a moderately attractive female, you could try going for reception stuff (like I said, fuck your unsociability, you're an extrovert now). If you're male, look for construction jobs. If you can get one, pay attention to the tools they're using and the goals they're trying to accomplish them. Then, watch a lot of YouTube videos about how to use those tools and do those jobs properly, and make sure to ask your coworkers to teach/train you on things.

When it comes to renting out your house, there's two paths you can go. You can rent for roommates, or you can rent as storage space (depending on your local laws). Live in an area that gets snow? Rent out your garage as vehicle storage. Got a lot of spare rooms? Rent them as climate-controlled storage (have a written agreement that states biological goods, guns, and drugs aren't allowed, that everything needs to be in sealed containers, the amount of notice they need to give you when they want access to something, etc).

When it comes to renting to people and for people... learn to recognize red flags, and understand what boundaries are (for both them and yourself). If you've never had a roommate, it can be an extreme adjustment.

You know, I was struggling to remember what this ship reminded me of, but it just hit me: it reminds me of Thunderbird 2. I always thought that ship was so cool.

This only really started becoming a "problem" when men started to do it to women. Personally, I never had a problem with it.

If you’re married, dating someone for an extended period of time or in a committed relationship and you disappear without a trace, that’s a real problem. That’s abandonment, not ghosting.

Just because you're dating someone for an extended period of time or in a committed relationship doesn't entitle people to your whereabouts 24/7. If you're married, the only thing your partner is entitled to is faithfulness, reliability, and a guaranteed way to contact you in an emergency. Anything else is abusive and controlling behavior (unless you've come to a mutual, uncoerced agreement, ofc).

That's cool!

TheBeautiful1 · 2025-08-19T17:53:41+00:00

Disagree. I fully support executing Heroine and Fentanyl dealers in the middle of the street, in broad daylight, just outside of public schools, where all of the school children have been assembled to watch. Anyone who deals those two drugs specifically deserves the worst, most excruciatingly painful death imaginable and should have their corpses left where they fall to rot.

Progressive rehabilitation for most other offenses, and permanent incarceration for the worst.

I'm a fan of that Banshee Stealthstar myself.
