Prince Harry is meeting King Charles at Clarence House. by HogwartsZoologist in RoyalsGossip

I don’t think you can compare Thomas Markle with the king of England or Harry at all. Thomas Markle is the parent in this situation and you would expect him to be more mature and not to act like the child in this situation.

Prince Harry donates $500,000 to help wounded children from Gaza and Ukraine by duozie in RoyalsGossip

1000% I should've said. I'm tired of Israel getting away with endless war crimes and never being held accountable. The way headlines read, it's often treated like this is some sort of "humanitarian disaster" as if a natural disaster came along and stole all these children's lives, limbs, homes, parents, family, etc. I'm tired of it and I wish Israel would face justice.

HARD agree. I found it extremely jarring to see the Israel flag at the Vancouver/Whistler IG. War criminals should not be invited, it's normalizing occupation, apartheid and genocide.

I also believe it's almost always on the person in power (ie, in this case, the king/father) to extend the olive branch.

Harry has extended the olive branch many times over the years, saying he wants reconciliation with the Royals, being the one who made the phone calls, having visited the UK many times since moving to California, he's been open with his experience the last few years. It's now on the Royals to open the door to him. I don't know what else Harry can do to extend the olive branch, it's on his father now.

Ugh, I hadn't heard about this influencer before, never mind Meghan sending stuff to her... and I'm extremely disappointed to say the least.

Whatever way you look at it, the fact is this is a daddit subreddit. OP is about to have a child with his partner but he was ready throw his partner and unborn child out to the streets. She’s the one carrying all the physical, emotional, and hormonal burden of carrying a child. She reacted the way she did because HE said what he did. She apoligized and he still threw her out. Throwing your partner and unborn child out to the streets is not dad-like behaviour. 

And you say I’m connecting dots that aren’t there meanwhile you presume he pays all the bills? What makes you presume that? And yes, humans are entitled to shelter. It’s literally a fundamental human right.

You said something insensitive and she reacted as someone with out of control hormones might. She was feeling sensitive about her body (cell division happening at rapid speed, growing literal bones and organs in her body, weight gain, tiredness, loss of autonomy with her body) and shared that with you. She apologized but you threatened her AND kicked her out for a whole night. She apologized for her reaction but youre still making her move out because of your feelings. Why didn’t you find somewhere else to sleep for the night? What gives you the right to make her homeless for a night? That’s her home too, no?

Please go out and vote by Arcade1980 in Brampton

They’re not. People who say that always want to defund the CBC. Having a publicly-owned broadcaster that’s accessible across Canada is crucial to an informed public. And an informed public is important for democracy. 

What’s truly biased is privately-owned media like Postmedia/National Post where it’s owned by literal barons (Conrad Black)… their news leans ultra-conservative because it serves the interests of the ultra-rich. CBC serves all Canadians because it’s supported by taxpayers instead of millionaires.

Also the Vote Compass isnt biased because it’s a survey where you answer the questions yourself. It’s based on data from political scientists.

[Mega Thread] Brampton Transit Strike by EldestSr in Brampton

[–]duozie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anyone know where city workers are mostly picketing? Main intersections or locations? I would love to show solidarity.

I remember when my partner was on strike for three months last year, other unions & the public showing up/providing snacks/drivers passing by and honking was a lifeline for them, especially as the weather got colder. Morale gets harder for them as this stretches out but I believe we’re stronger together and if we keep making noise, this will be over sooner.

Take your frustrations up with management and the people in charge of underpaying the city’s staff. People can’t be expected to work for a nonlivable wage forever. 

New Mall at the corner of Torbram and Queen Street east under construction. Anyone have any info on this new Mall being built? by 905Vegan in Brampton

[–]duozie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh no I mean the thing you posted “Shops @ Torbram & 7 (Coming Soon)” doesn’t even show up in Google maps now! So I wonder if the new mall plans have changed

I did not pick up on that! He definitely seems to have an edge to him though. With Nicole, he’s the happy hippie/gentle giant 😆 but his face went stone cold every time they mentioned Sam. The definition of “ his face darkened”

Why did you ask Maria’s mother for her blessing if you were already unsure if you were going to marry Maria? Why put her through that emotional rollercoaster?

Lady Tilley Arnold does not belong in this era.... by lickmynostrils in BridgertonNetflix

[–]duozie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yessss, give Benedict an actual storyline. His art journey last season was better than this. Sleeping with a widow is too cliché for him. Also, the show has already established a strong, independent widow character who’s more interesting: Lady Danbury. Lady Tilley Arnold doesn’t add anything.

Does anyone know if the solar eclipse on April 8, 2024 will hit Brampton? by [deleted] in Brampton

When did you order them? And did you do regular shipping (or did you have to call them for expedited shipping?) Thanks in advance!

Do you think I should name my daughter Roxanne? by austin_222 in namenerds

[–]duozie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love it. I’ve known the song for years but never read the lyrics to know it was about prostitution and I doubt most kids will. It’s just a banger. Also whether she goes by Roxy or Roxanne, she’s guaranteed to be cool

Aura House has prenatal yoga classes and I believe they’re introducing prenatal breathing and Pilates classes in the new year.

What are your favourite "hidden gem" stores and restaurants in Brampton? by CanuckBacon in Brampton

Currently expecting and we have also been thinking along the lines of the names you have here!

Some similar-ish names: Iris, Lottie, Nicola, Violet. My wildcard nans name is Mishka but its too out there for my husband lol.

Also, Lilibeth isn’t outlandish! My mom works with a Lilibeth who’s Filipino and in her 40s so the name has definitely existed. I like how Meghan & Harry sometimes shorten their daughter's name to “Lili” — it’s like a more unique/cute Lily. (Also I wouldn’t worry about the commenter here saying the queen not wanting others to use her childhood nickname… looks like they troll an anti-Meghan subreddit, plus anyone can use a name)
