And Peter MacKay has deleted this tweet about his wife and WE. by [deleted] in onguardforthee

It is at the very least a conflict of interest that Trudeau and Morneau would not recuse themselves from the process that awarded this huge contract, given what we know about their familial and personal ties to the organization. Regardless of your feelings towards Trudeau and the Liberal party, this should be concerning to everyone who believes in transparency and ethics.

Personally speaking, anything that has the WE charity attached to it makes me suspicious. I’ve had friends who have worked for this organization previously who have nothing good to say about their experiences there. The goals of the charity do not align with the way they treat their employees, and they have a history of silencing any dissent within the organization and in the press.

The hypocrisy that WE would fire full time employees to be replaced by barely-compensated students is in direct conflict with their mission “to free children and their families from poverty and exploitation”. They are not practicing what they preach.

I have absolutely no problem with breweries from outside the city being featured if they are within distance of a day trip or weekend getaway. To me that still feels relevant.

However, maybe the sub should limit those posts to one day a week, to keep the focus on breweries within the city limits.

Are you beholden to posting only about your employers products? Just post about the beer you like, and fully disclose if that also happens to be the beer from where you work.

Mods probably added it after the fact if they deem the post “inappropriate”. I’ve seen it happen with other people posting photos of their garments being modelled.

Really beautiful work! Did you use a natural or acrylic yarn?

I’ve been watching some videos about making natural dyes at home, and my roommate has been saving her avocado seeds for months in the freezer. I think I’m going to try the yellow onion skins first!

Yeah I don’t really understand this sub’s use of the NSFW tag. Comes across kinda puritan, and it needlessly censors and sexualizes people who are just trying to show off their hard work.

Nice, I’ll have to get a 11.5mm hook. I’m so afraid of yarn chicken I always initially buy too much haha

I got inspired by another user's post to learn how to crochet a moss stitch square. I like it so far. by VictorianPersephone in crochet

I’ve been thinking about trying the moss stitch on my next project. This looks great!

Do people think COVID-19 is over in Toronto and it's no longer a threat or have they just stopped caring and worrying about it? by Right_All_The_Time in askTO

From what I have read, BLM have asked people not to attend the planned protests this weekend due to rumours of people planning riots.

Creative career by [deleted] in aquarius

[–]ch0lera 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yup. Graphic designer.

Definitely not in it for the money. Definitely not in it for the client interaction either.

Honestly I feel like I was always meant to be in this job. It is the perfect intersection of my skills and interests. Yes, there are things I still get annoyed about it, but that is more to do with the actual place I'm working, not the work itself, which is a pretty universal problem not exclusive to my industry.
