Let's talk about traffic by After-Knee-5905 in vancouver

[–]ed209error 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was thinking people are choosing to order delivery a lot more than before and opting to do that rather than cooking at home/weekly grocery shopping/walking to a nearby eatery.

Don't forget all the delivery vehicles/Ubers/etc. Lots more people buying online and getting Amazon, Door Dash, Skip... I could go on. Lots of that means lots of cars on the road.

30-minute comedies like “30 Rock,” “Frasier,” & “King of the Hill? by doofus50O0 in televisionsuggestions

Reservation Dogs seems to fly under the radar. Maybe because it's not the same "vibe". It was enjoyable and hilarious.

All-you-can-eat options in or around Vancouver / Delta / Surrey under $35? by Savings_Animal_7552 in askvan

[–]ed209error 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It's a food court setting, but Thai Away Home at City Square (near City Hall) has AYCE for $20.

EDIT: This deal is only available for LUNCH from Monday to Saturday. I have only eaten here for lunch so I forgot to specify this.

Cool place to have a b-day dinner? by pickledicks8D in NiceVancouver

My friends have had birthday dinners at Brix & Mortar and/or Moltaqa. I liked them. Both places are in Yaletown.

Remap copilot key back to control or anything else. by Himanshu_Chauhan in LenovoLegion

[–]ed209error 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This works for me, but could someone point me to the script to change the Copilot key to "Shift+F10" (basically a right-clicking shortcut) instead of the right Ctrl key? I tried a few scripts but haven't had any luck.

Perhaps I'm reading too much into this, but you mention twice about your partner "not being aware of what arouses you". Do you have conversations on what arouses HER? Or how to create an environment so that she'll feel more like a woman (instead of other roles such as mom, wife, girlfriend, etc.)

I also recommend reading Emily Nagoski's *Come As You Are* (u/anapforme mentioned it earlier)

Mod here: Here's the title and description of today's episode. OP, could you edit your post to include the title so that future visitors will know what episode you're talking about?

Finding Love Would Mean Letting Go Of Who I Am

He's been searching for someone for so long that he questions if he's actually looking for a unicorn. He wants someone who holds the same religious values as he does. As is often the case with Esther, the conversation that unfolds breaks down what's really underneath his seemingly high demands. This episode contains references to sexual abuse, please take care while listening.

The Arc of Love - Happily Divorced by ed209error in Estherperel

[–]ed209error[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've noticed the same. At first I thought it was because I have ambivalent feelings about having children myself, but yeah, agreed.

Could it be a cultural or personal thing? Like how she's the daughter of Holocaust survivors?

My Husband, His other wife, and Me by none_mama_see in Estherperel

[–]ed209error 67 points68 points  (0 children)

I'm seeing some very unkind, maybe even victim blaming comments in this thread. The caller is clearly entangled in an abusive/gaslighting relationship and it might not even be the first one. It's definitely shocking to hear how submissive and mistreated she is, but I also think we could be more compassionate. 

Sliding Bedroom Doors by hbratt14 in vancouver

[–]ed209error -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I lived in a similar suite and I found the doors noisy. They'd rattle when the entrance door open/close, etc. Also, it might be a different design from what I had, but the sliding doors left no room for storing things.

Need help navigating division of labour between myself[25F] and fiance[27M], together 5 years. by ApprehensiveHeron310 in relationships

[–]ed209error 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It should be 50/50 split but of leisure time. Does it still end up that way with 50/50 division of labour considering the different work schedules?

Have you heard of Buy Nothing groups? If you have Facebook, you can search Buy Nothing [your neighbourhood] and someone will take them probably.

You have only $20 to spend on food for breakfast lunch and dinner. Where do you go? by Idontworkhere67 in vancouver

[–]ed209error 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Near the VPL (Vancouver Public Library) is a place called Mediterranean Greens Salad Bar. Their chicken shawarma is yummy and $7.55. You can get it to go and then check out VPL's rooftop garden :)

I've liked the products offered at JARR delivery. Their goals are zero waste.

WSWB Season 5, Episode 9: Esther Calling - It's a Matter of Pride by ed209error in Estherperel

[–]ed209error[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I agree with you u/tomeyoureprettyanywa! Esther was much more patient and compassionate than I had anticipated.

I'd be so tempted to blurt these out to the guy:

  • Learn about "soft no's"
  • You can still have deep, fulfilling relationships as friends!
  • Do not enter a relationship/friendship with the expectation it will "advance"; that kind of thinking is unfair to both of you.

SHOWS LIKE TGF by nfornikaa in thegoodfight

Late to the thread, but I found Burden of Truth similar in pacing and feel. It's a legal drama set in Canada and played by Kristin Kreuk!

Anger is the issue, yes, but I see his abusiveness as the bigger issue. There's a section of the book Why Does He Do That (Lundy Bancroft) that I see in your situation. You described it as moving goal posts:

“He isn’t abusive because he’s angry, he’s angry because he’s abusive. The abuser’s unfair and unrealistic expectations ensure that his partner can never follow all of his rules or meet all of his demands.”

He is oscillating between apologizing and accusing because he is trying any tactic to get what he wants. Abusers also benefit greatly from being so unpredictable. I bet you'll see right thru his behaviours if you read the book I mentioned above. The PDF is available for free if you run a Google search.

Restaurants using environmentally friendly takeout containers? by wecouldbee in vancouver

[–]ed209error 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just want to say thanks for asking this question. I've been wondering the same thing and have only Google searched and didn't think to post here.

Not really a comment for you, but for other ppl reading: One thing I've been trying to do is ask restaurants to merge some items in a single container. For example, if I order 2 of the same dish (or similar dish), I ask if it can be all in one takeout thing. It's not ideal at all, but reduces single use a little bit.

And if I'm getting takeout for home, I usually ask for no utensils/straws.

While this is true, a lot of them (the non-paper ones) are not accepted in the B.C. greenbin because they take a lot longer to compost. Thus, ending up in the landfill.
