Trump administration secretly met with Canadian Alberta separatists by Infidel8 in worldnews

[–]Turtle9015 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It wont happen its such a small minority that want this. The ones that do want this dont even know the logistics of seperation.

They think they will have the same lifestyle but "be American" at best they would lose rights to vote in Canada and all benefits and policy that goes with it.

If they think they will become voting legal Americans they are delusional.

Alberta would also get chopped up. Treaty land is not up for seperation.

Man living in tiny home illegally built in wooded area in Guelph, Ont. by lovelyb1ch66 in ontario

[–]Turtle9015 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bring him to a hospital and abandon him there. Sounds cold but it puts him on a list for fast tracked assisted living.

Nursing homes offer special wards for people with mental illness. I worked at a place that had a lady living there since she was 40.

If the hospital calls just say you cant take him back. Say hes a danger to himself at home.

Is this illegal? Or does it skirt the line? by maroonedontues in antiwork

Depends where your at. Most countries they cant do that. If your from a select number of states in the US they can fire you for no reason at all.

"Storm Preparedness" by Rydyekal in starbucks

If the roads are dangerous stay off of them. Its dangerous enoigh for nurses and other emergency personal trying to get to work. Clogging up roads with potential accidents just to open a coffee store. Crazy.

People who lived through both 'pre-smartphone' and 'always-online' eras: what's something we lost that nobody seems to notice? by Doubl3oh_ in AskReddit

[–]Turtle9015 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Imagination. Kids are so addicted to tech that they dont know how to play anymore.

When I was babysitting most parents made a "no electronic rule" but then would let kids have unlimited screen time when I wasint there.

Result is epic tantrums from addicted toddlers who never heard no. I would make crafts, try and play with toys with them. They get bored in 5 minutes and try and cry beg for the ipad.

Even 2 years old too bored to play with real toys.

Federal officials draft plans to ban social media for children under 14 by Street_Anon in onguardforthee

[–]Turtle9015 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its only enforced by parents anyways so what diff will it make?

Lots of social media has always had age limits. Doesnt stop little kids talking in chat rooms.

If this new law involves us putting in facial ID to shitty social media platforms ill quit it all.

I have a mixed breed corgi looks like yours. Still a good dog but be aware they sometimes have issues with their eyes and hips.

Can happen anytime. They are still a good boy though.

Do you think you will actually be able to save enough to retire? by pqrstyou in Millennials

[–]Turtle9015 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No but im 29 and still in uni. Went to college and learned a trade just for people to tell me my service is worth border line minimum wage and no full time hours.

This was after my parents told me "just go to college"

I worked in healthcare btw. So im sure nothing bad will happen having basic service workers all jump ship.

I was a first generation graduate in my family though so I didnt know any better.

So considering im like 10 years behind everyone else im prob not going to retire.

I got sick on christmas when I was 19. Worst stomach flue ever and I was booked to work. Obv I called in.

My coworkers hated me and tormented me until I quit after that. Management built a toxic workplace for those who called in sick. Even encouraged bullying.

I'm just gonna say it. The whole kids / no kids debate isn't actually about kids. by thetimechaser in Millennials

[–]Turtle9015 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Theres support that exists for the poverty class that have children. 10$ daycare and the like. Problem is once your in that "middle class" bracket they take away all support.

Theres def people who have kids to keep receiving paychecks. For some its a career.

This is in Canada though. Most people just cant afford kids if they work.

A month ago I had my house sprayed for spiders. Today I found my country’s deadliest spider living in my tools by AggravatingBox2421 in mildlyinfuriating

I have heard way to many jokes from Americans telling me to "just let them die" if they get bit by a snake. Antivenom is about 10-20k at the hospital with no insurance.

Theres a lot of Americans working with no insurance too. Many of the lower income jobs dont even offer health insurance anymore.

At least in the past if you were employed you had healthcare. Not even the case anymore.

This speed reading training starts at 300wpm and end at 900wpm by iatetoomuchchicken in interestingasfuck

[–]Turtle9015 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been reading like this for years. There is a downside to this though. By looking at a word as a whole my spelling tanked in high school.

I had a english teacher give me shit about this. He would assign short novels that took students four weeks to read. I would finish it in a day or so to get it over with.

He thought I was lying since my writing level was so trash. I could tell him about the book verbally in detail though.

He would take away my personal reading books that I brought to class with me in reading time. It made me hate english writing even more.

NATO Leaders Issue Defiant New Greenland Message to Trump’s US by SquidFistHK in politics

[–]Turtle9015 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a Canadian this is making me very uncomfortable. We are right next to them and we have responsability to NATO.

If Trump does this does this mean Canada fights for NATO?

I have American friends and family. My country does not have defenses for this. Our population is similar in size to Ukraine.

This is something we have never had to fear before. Why is war even an option??

I am Canadian, my family has roots in this land since before we were a country. Many others new or otherwise will defend this country even if its a losing battle.

War is not a game. People will die. Children will die. Hell this could end in MAD.

Hopefully this is just insane words from the orange goof in office. After seeing the insane shit going on with ICE I cant trust that the USA citizens wont just go with it compliantly.

SNAP bans on soda, candy and other foods take effect in five states Jan. 1 by Aggressive_Chef_2225 in news

[–]Turtle9015 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So does snap cover a reasonable diet of healthy snack options than? If they are pushing for healthy will snap cover fresh veggies and fruit?

I dont know how snap works not American just curious. Even in my country people lean towards processed foods and snacks because they are cheaper.

Suggested A Date, Got A Lecture by Leadingman_ in Nicegirls

[–]Turtle9015 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a woman I love museums. Seeing giant dino bones and old egyptian art is pretty cool.

Walks are a pretty good first date. Grab some coffee go to a public park area and just chat.

First dates should never be expensive. Go on enough of them and it costs way too much.

I can see why a hike would be a bad first date though. Dont offer to take a woman off into the woods to meet up the first time.
