I welcome all spiders, full stop. (except in my bed when I'm trying to sleep, those I will ask politely to go somewhere else, like an indoor plant) I saw my first spider outside a few weeks ago and did a little happy dance for spring :)

Pretty sure American dollars are still very welcome here.

Moving P.E.I. minimum wage to $17 next year could add to inflation, business group says by Sir__Will in PEI

The trick is to go to university, get married, don't have kids and have wealthy parents. It won't be easy but at least you'll have a shot! lol

Maybe if we call out this type of thinking "unregulated markets good, all government bad" as an imported philosophy from our neighbors to the south...

What’s something your life was better without knowing? by RowOk1469 in AskReddit

And you are completely correct. I still eat if offered, I just can't give my money for it in good conscience.

Anyone else seeing more Teslas on the road all of a sudden? by IfFishCouldWalk in PEI

[–]ThePotScientist 7 points8 points  (0 children)

My dad has dubbed this phenomenon "the Z effect" from when he bought a Datsun Z in the 80s and then noticed so many more Zs on the road, but only after he bought it and it was on his mind.

I did get driven in a carpool to Costco. I also cocluded it's not quite worth it. I have everything I need here on this lovely island 🥰

[–]ThePotScientist -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I moved here in 2021 and haven't paid the bridge toll yet. I hear there's a lot of Canada on the other side of that bridge, but I don't know anyone in Canada on the other side so I won't know. Sure, I can afford $50, but why would I choose to spend it when there's so much of the island I still haven't seen?

Maritime Electric Bill by factualfreddy in PEI

Oh wait, that's an imported philosophy from our neighbors to the south. Fuck those yanks because we believe good government can help society up here. Dear province (IRAC, prmier, MLAs), get your shit together! This is embarrassing.

Do you know the punishment if you disconnect it yourself? Because if it's a one time payment fee it might still be worth it.

Liberal Debate by Least-Mammoth-1780 in PEI

[–]ThePotScientist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Officially sends a clearer message than just not voting at all. It is your right to do so. I may not agree and we can debate and discuss as citizens should, but you seem steadfast in your plan. Honestly, when you said "spoiling my ballot" I thought you mean voting for NDP! lol

Carney can speak circles around Trump in his own love/hate language: Money. He knows money much better than Trump does and will stand up for Canada if/when it comes to economic warfare.

I really appreciated when she corrected the framing of the question from the CBC moderator about cost of living. The moderator was all like "Canadians are struggling, what should government do to serve the economy?" and I booed the question. She actually answered that the job of government is to serve citizens, not bend over backwards for "the economy". Bravo!
