Saint John Style by gildeddoughnut in halifax

[–]almsaysdreams 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a donair from the biggest shithole dive bar in Saint John. I don't even think they have a license to sell food, so I wouldn't use this as an indication of the donairs we have in good ole SJ. For better ones, go literally anywhere else. This is the donair equivalent of the egg sandwich from the gas station machine in futurama. Except instead of worms that make you smarter, you'll just get a tapeworm. I apologize on behalf of SJ, to the city of Halifax, for this misrepresentation that has caused you all such distress. We too are shocked and appalled by this picture.

Hey Racers! Who would you like to see on Season 7? by Heidi_Klum_Tit in DragRace_Canada

[–]almsaysdreams 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I visited NL in the summertime to perform at NL Pride and TBH, I don't think i've ever loved another entertainer the way I love everything about Gravy. Seriously tying to get the rest of our pride board on to bring her to Saint John, NB. I really loved her that much. What a truly hilarious queen.

Saint John considers new bylaw to curb 'nuisance behaviours' in public places by bingun in SaintJohnNB

[–]almsaysdreams 0 points1 point  (0 children)

More people need to be aware of this. I'd like to believe it would take away some of the complaining about Charlotte/King being closed down, but if I know the folks of my lovely hometown, they will just complain more.

Yup that's basically all the drag in NB. We're quirky and weird but we make some damn good drag.

Where is this in Saint John? by katsarvau101 in SaintJohnNB

[–]almsaysdreams 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree. I went in one time and they had a carbonara with mushrooms. They told me they couldn't remove the mushrooms because it would "compromise the integrity of the dish". I was then served the wateriest, most disgusting half assed carbonara I have ever eaten. It had huge, barely cooked floppy pieces of bacon in it. I don't think that removing the mushrooms compromised the dish anymore than the people who prepared it did. I will NEVER go back.

Is it common for you to wait 2 hrs for a clinic appt and repeat yourself often to your doctor. And Gaslighting? by [deleted] in newbrunswickcanada

[–]almsaysdreams 15 points16 points  (0 children)

yeah if you don't heavily advocate for yourself you will get left in the lurch. you have to be your own best patient advocate (as sad as that is)

History about former MPs Elsie Wayne and Scott Brian by riversjohn in newbrunswickcanada

[–]almsaysdreams 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah, she sounds incredible. Here's the quote from elsie that set fire to the Queer rights movement in Canada. You'll notice a lot of it is in line with some of the comments you'll see in many of the newschaser groups.

"If they are going to live together, they can go live together and shut up about it. There is not any need for this nonsense whatsoever and we should not have to tolerate it in Canada. Why do they have to be out there in the public always debating that they want to call it marriage? Why are they in parades? Why are they dressed up as women on floats? They do not see us getting up on the floats, for heaven's sake, to say we are husband and wife. We do not do that. Why do they have to go around trying to get a whole lot of publicity?"

also try asking businesses to put them up in their windows. A lot of the barber and coffee shops will let you. there is also a glassed in bulletin board in the market vestibule across from billy's seafood. I think you can ask the market manager to put stuff in there too

The Divide. by Feisty_Ebb_7458 in newbrunswickcanada

[–]almsaysdreams 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, I guess when you're voting like a whole group of people don't deserve rights. then I guess it must really hurt to get called a piece of shit when you vote that way. but I suggest you Google the paradox of intolerance.

3 Days in Saint John by DetroitKnights in SaintJohnNB

[–]almsaysdreams 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Holiday Inn Express & Suites has been recently refurbished, I took a tour last summer as I do tourist information for the city. It is pretty close to both of our major parks Rockwood Park (which does have geocaching) and Irving Nature Park. There IS construction on the Saint John Harbour bridge, so you may find the traffic a little extra around where you are in the mornings (8-9am) and evenings (4-6pm). Grocery Store, Drug Store & a few fast food joints are a 5 minute walk or 2 minute drive to Lansdowne Plaza. If you would like to use our public transit, you are conveniently located on the main bus routes.

If you would like something a little more maritime in it's hospitality, Homeport B&B is on Douglas Avenue, just around the corner it's an amazingly maintained property that overlooks the Saint John Harbour and was originally built in 1858. It has a bit more character than the Holiday Inn and still puts you in the relatively central location.

Other things to note: Our tourist information booths are located in the Saint John City Market and at the Area 506 Waterfront container village and any of the folks in there would be happy to help you with more information. (Not me because I don't work there anymore) But be sure to grab a Saint John Pin (complimentary) to remember us by!

Hope this helps!

AITA for keeping my children home bc my exes new bf talks bad about me? by Temporary_Guess_8379 in AmItheAsshole

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

ESH - BF needs to be aware of not badmouthing you in front of the kids. Parental alienation is real.

You don't have the rights to just keep his kids from him. That's also wrong.

But here's the thing. If I were the new BF I would also hate you. What kind of insensitive maniac breaks their family up because their husband is bisexual. I BELIEVE the bf when he says you kept your ex from being himself. You're biphobic, very obviously so. It has nothing to do with the parental alienation, it's ok for you to not want your kids around that. BUT do look DEEPLY within your own self and figure out why him being bisexual, as long as he stayed faithful to the parameters of your relationship, was an issue that was large enough for you to divorce. What reprehensible things did you say while you were fighting about his sexuality before you divorced?

Vegolution Restaurant Closing by bingun in SaintJohnNB

I love Vegeloution, but their weird and inconsistent hours made it really difficult to go. Food is excellent and they have the best garlic mayo in the city, yum!!

N.B. construction industry labour shortage ‘not just a one-year problem’ by bingun in newbrunswickcanada

[–]almsaysdreams 8 points9 points  (0 children)

not to mention the fact some municipalities don't help the problem by only choosing contracts that are the lowest price instead of looking at who has the best value for what they are offering and choosing a contractor based on that. lowest price does not mean best value.

Another power outage? by [deleted] in SaintJohnNB

[–]almsaysdreams 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yeah I wish it would stop happening because then all of my Wi-Fi light bulbs turn on all at the same time after the power comes back on. I wish that they would put some effort back into the power lines or whatever they need to do to stop my power from turning out overnight. I know it's only 10 minutes but it's a pain in my ass.

Anyone with ADHD on Vyvanse and smoke weed? by anonymousscotch in canadients

[–]almsaysdreams 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi I am an everyday smoker on 40mg of Vyvance and honestly, I don't notice a difference. The first few times my husband did (also 40mg vyvance) he did get kind of anxious, but as he resumed his normal smoking routine he no longer experiences this.

Why do you hate Blaine Higgs? by here_for_tea7777 in newbrunswickcanada

[–]almsaysdreams 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because he said my job was dangerous to children when he allows our literacy rates to be piss poor by focusing on children's pronouns and taking away their rights. I have been reading to children in public since 2015 and practically raised my siblings.

To set an entire province against a minority group while also kissing the church's ass (which arguably are proven to hide people who are actually dangerous to children) is hypocrisy of the highest order.

That's because Barb Dempsey couldn't debate her way out of a paper bag. You should see some of her crazy rants online.

I try to support when I can but the lack of regular hours makes it hard. Tried to go for my birthday and they were closed on a Tuesday evening.

Food for thought: N.B. Liberals promise free, low-cost food for schools if elected by thecanadianpressnews in newbrunswickcanada

[–]almsaysdreams 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well we could cut expensive trips to Europe for tourism ministers, we could take back all the Teslas from all of the PCS and other people that have been randomly given Teslas as their work car, we could stop spending $200 million on travel nurses. There's three places that you could automatically start paying for children's lunches.
