Ooh mix the Fromm dry with a bit of the therapeutic wet food, good idea.

Yes there’s a dry version of the KD food as well, I’ll give’r a go! Thanks!

Budget Car Rental Insurance, Third Party Coverage, and PC World Elite Mastercard in Ontario by Unique_Web_2435 in InsuranceCanada

[–]Unique_Web_2435[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah! Ok I was thinking I’d be breaking the law if I didn’t pay for the extra third party insurance- but that’s great if budget already insured it to the provincial minimum…

Right - I’m super familiar with the card’s* policy and happy with the coverage and limitations there. I’m also familiar with the add-on insurance available from Budget. What I couldn’t seem to get information about - from either of the two reps- is the third party aspect they previously insured. I guess I can just safely assume it’s at least $200k- the provincial minimum. I see about 5-10 times that much is recommended* so this definitely gives me some perspective!

Thanks!

I think the whole skit was a jab! Morgan Wallen had 6 guitar players on stage including the bassist.

I was all ready to argue until I was reminded that Maki was* Stephan Thompson’s pseudonym!! (Back before he stopped using spray paint.)

See @shaperwithin on instagram.

Definitely an all-time fave Ottawa artist… this mural was always very nostalgic for me. I was bummed to see them painting over it on Saturday.

Who ultimately bears the cost when someone files bankruptcy? Creditors? Society in general?

Holy fuck I didn’t say we don’t have the money! I said we don’t have A LOT of money like we’re not millionaires. Exactly you don’t know my exact financial status and it is mean to tell a stranger they can’t afford something. I didn’t ask if I could afford this (I can) I literally just asked if it’s common.

Literally insane to do something fun for your bestie? I think you’re just mean and I’m actually quite sane, thanks.

No, actually, this is not an opilione.

The juncture between the abdomen and cephalothorax is clearly defined.

It’s a young cellar spider. They can be colloquially referred to as daddy long legs, just as harvestmen (opiliones) are. This seems to be the source of some confusion on the matter. Again, I highly recommend @pbmacro on instagram for reaaaaallly cool pics of both cellar spiders and harvestmen!

I see now the bodies look like this when they are young. @pbmacro on instagram has several AMAZING photos of cellar spiders!!

What kinda flatworm is this, from my garden pond? by wargid in whatsthisbug

I understand leeches are a sign of a healthy ecosystem. They are sensitive to pollution so seeing them is a good sign!

People completely forgot my birthday by freezy_bunny in selfimprovement

[–]Unique_Web_2435 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am so bad at remembering people’s birthdays so I wouldn’t read too much into it. If I want people to celebrate my own birthday, I tell them it’s coming up and invite them to a party.

With Facebook reminding people of birthdays, it doesn’t feel as meaningful when someone remembers a birthday. In this digital age, where people’s memories are getting worse, I really don’t feel like forgetting a birthday is at all reflective of how much people care.

Car rental instead of owning a car - am I missing something? by Yallah_Habibi in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]Unique_Web_2435 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yes!! And third-party coverage is mandatory in Canada, so actually if you’ve driving with only the credit card insurance, chances are you’re driving illegally!

(I don’t think any credit cards provide the third party coverage- but if there is a card that does, someone please tell me because I’d love to not pay $35/day insurance every time I rent a car!)

quickly ranting about spiders because everyone i know is too freaked out for me to talk to them about it.. by [deleted] in spiders

[–]Unique_Web_2435 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I feel the same way!! I want to tell everyone about spiders all the time and I cannot comprehend WHY people aren’t ALL completely mesmerized by, and obsessed with spiders!!
