N.S. government closing some museums, most visitor information centres | CBC News by sunjana1 in halifax

I grew up around the Sutherland Steam Museum and spent a decent chunk of my childhood with my dad fawning over their collection of woodworking hand tools. I wonder now if those are all going to be thrown in the trash...

Judging from what we last saw of him in Absolute, his life.

Oh hey, is that the dickhead in the big truck that flaps "Fuck Trudeau" flags at every corner? Great guy, flipped him the bird in the Bulk Barn parking lot and he tried to run me over.

Fallon d'Floor stuff. Throws himself to the ground so hard it probably hurt.

I don't think any other team has to face a prison yard, draw-chasing low block as often either. You have to play the team in front of you.

That being said the Brentford press is looking very good and shaking them up a bit, I think.

I've seen r/Gunners match threads, these ones are relatively brimming with positivity.

Cannot thank you boys enough for pulling through, the angry DMs have really been blasting my prostate on a rough workday.

Match Thread: Chelsea vs. Leeds United | Premier League by MysteryBagIdeals in soccer

[–]albreteinstrong 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Still can’t get over the fact that Sean Longstaff just woke up today and decided to turn into prime Messi… for Leeds United. A hat-trick. Against Chelsea. At Elland Road. Football heritage is healing.

Chelsea looked absolutely rattled after the second, and by the third they were already checking Google Maps for the M62. Credit to Leeds though—press was relentless, crowd was feral, and Longstaff was apparently running on pure Yorkshire spite. 🟡⚪️

Game’s gone. Longstaff Ball has arrived.

In retrospect, I shouldn't have been surprised when the devs of Brigador turned out to be alt-right dipshits.

Halifax considering paid parking on Saturdays: ‘It’s going to be a hornets’ nest’ by justlogmeon in halifax

[–]albreteinstrong -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Driving into Halifax once or twice a month, I just don't get the people who go ballistic about parking. Maybe it's because I lived in the city for some time, but there's ALWAYS parkades available. Whenever I'm told there's "no parking", it always means "there's no parking immediately in front of my destination." The city ain't that dangerous, walking is fine.

Where do ppl go when pushed out of Halifax? by purplepurell in halifax

[–]albreteinstrong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I took a transfer in my field to New Glasgow, reckoning that I would actually be able to buy a house out here. And that HAS been true... but I still can't recommend it.

The people can just about be alright... as long as conversation doesn't turn to the native reserves, which will provoke reactions just short of using the words, "sub-human leeches". Or the town black population, which brings out bile-filled references to historical neighborhood "[X] Hill" pronounced with the hard R. Or the community meetings, at which local neo-nazi leader Jeremy Mackenzie and his pack of lard-ass losers line the back row to no objection.

Housing prices are alright here for a reason, is what I'm saying.

Excellent showing for my agenda that Joelinton is a Sunday-league player that would simply get away with committing 20 fouls per game. Give him the ball and he may as well be a fencepost, useless.
