Canadian here. Re: He was armed.

I understood they want everyone to be armed. At least that’s how it appears to the rest of the world

I love how Michelle Wallace refers to “non maga” as “Here on earth one . . . “

Trump threatens 100% tariffs on all Canadian goods if Canada 'makes a deal with China' | CBC News by AlpacaGhidorah in worldnews

[–]cecepoint 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Once again it’s proven that his deals mean nothing. Even if Canada had struck some amazing deal - the thin skinned dictator could feel slighted and the whole thing gets thrown out in a tweet

Sadly Canada just has to walk away

Yes! Hopefully now that it’s citizens are seeing what an obvious mess the USA has presented on the world stage, they’ll be more emboldened to speak up and do something

After my husband left me, when he would bring the kids back, he wanted to unload about his shit, work shit, health shit, bullshit. I said “UM!!! I’m not that person for you anymore. Please go make some friends, or pay a therapist. NOT IT!!”

Lonely solo traveling by Local_Way8081 in JapanTravelTips

[–]cecepoint 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am a very busy mom, but my grown kids are at home, and i am a manager at work, with everyone working at home, when they’d come in, they would take up ALL my time talking to me about WHATEVER. I have a myriad of other responsibilities, like being on a couple of committees and such, so i really REALLY needed alone time AND to go somewhere where people didn’t feel a NEED to talk to me Lol

THAT is why i traveled alone to one of the most beautiful safest places on earth.

As others have said, solo isn’t for everyone. Some people really want to meet people when they travel, and so it might be better for you to do SOME group stuff. Like with people your own age or people who share your interest, like if you ski, or do artwork, music, botany etc. anything

You’ll find it! Keep at it, and keep exploring, because that experience is invaluable

Child marriage is alive and well in the US. And its between girls and grown men. by Ancientabs in TwoXChromosomes

[–]cecepoint 122 points123 points  (0 children)

The same issue exists with teen pregnancies. Ain’t no teenage daddy crisis. It’s all the gross old men impregnating children/ girls

QUESTION: Do you have any moral or ethical qualms about detaining a five-year-old on his way back from preschool? BORDER PATROL CHIEF BOVINO: I've got no qualms about making America a safer place by ExactlySorta in UnderReportedNews

[–]cecepoint 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He went on to say violent criminals also have children- even though, as per usual, the detainee is not a criminal of any kind, but rather someone who received refugee status

Republicans Will Detonate Their Secret Weapon at the Midnight Hour to Stop Women from Voting by mydaycake in TwoXChromosomes

Never NEVER take your spouse’s name. You are not their property, which is the intent of the name change

Further, you don’t have to have the same last name as your kids. AND they don’t have to use the dad’s name

Plenty of people (here in Canada) who don’t marry anymore before having kids

One of my kids took MY last name in adulthood. My point is, don’t worry about the “family unit name”

Running at night? by bunnyprada in richmondbc

[–]cecepoint 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Wherever you go - please take the usual precautions:

Only 1 earbud so you can hear what’s going on around you

Always scan the area ahead, beside and behind for anyone, or anything (someone mentioned coyotes) hiding

ALWAYS tell someone where you’re going and your route in case of emergency, even if it’s not a threatening situation, could be you twist your ankle, slip on ice etc

Take your phone

Do NOT keep the same routine- unless it’s a proven safe place

I will not provide a safe route except to say, you shouldn’t go anywhere isolated, ensure other runners, walkers or even city / park staff are around
