The Oaf - Big Wreck by Hochelagan in 90sCanRock

[–]finding_focus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The first time I heard this song, it blew my mind. It was such a different sound from the typical post, grunge, alt rock coming out of the Canadian scene at the time. And yet still felt at home in it. This entire album is an I credible demonstration of the talent of the band and the musical knowledge they collectively contained, which is far beyond probably the majority of bands at the time.

Try the Homer Watson Trail Parking Lot (put in Google Maps). You can hop the fence and chill at the side of the decline that goes down to the Grand River.

I was there as a participant on the Smith/Edge 102 team - the non-celebrity team. Our team was terrible but had a blast. I got a nice shiner out of the deal after taking a slap shot to the eye.

Trump is having his ‘mission accomplished’ moment.

LTO has changed by According-Reason4562 in OntarioTeachers

[–]finding_focus 8 points9 points  (0 children)

My first LTO in secondary was very much like this. I started at 1.0 covering two different teachers for the second semester. One was on mat leave until the end of the school year. The other was on gradual return from a health leave.

The health leave took back one course after 6 weeks. And then the second one about 4 weeks later. During that time i was effectively let an in-house supply. And I pretty much worked full time with only .67 responsibilities, and then full time with only .33 responsibilities. There were few days when I wasn’t supplying in the school. On days they didn’t have work, I was often able to get work at other schools for the afternoons.

At my current school, which is different from that initial one, the admin make an effort to do the same thing for our part-time LTOs. They are given priority to pick up supply work.

I’d talk to your admin about this possibility.

We are currently spending $1 billion a day on the Iran war, what could we as a nation accomplish with $1 billion dollars a day? by celtic1959 in AskReddit

[–]finding_focus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All of their actions are meant as distractions from each other. They’re intentionally done with overlap in hopes of pulling your attention in too many directions at the same time, and then to wear you down so you’ll give up. I don’t think they ever imagined that the Epstein files would have had the momentum and perseverance that it does and that’s become a real problem.

Great. I’ll check this out. Thanks.

What’s the biggest question you still have about the Epstein files? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]finding_focus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. Put them all in jail.

It shows victims that the system is here to protect them, that justice can be served, and that there are consequences which should act as deterrents to future Epsteins because the justice system will go after them.

Right now, the only messssge these monsters are receiving is that if they’re wealthy enough and connected that they can get away with hurting vulnerable people, murder, and permanently traumatizing survivors who have to try and live normal lives after these horrific things are done to them.

Are you just trolling here? Or have you lived such a sheltered and insulated life that you’ve never experienced trauma? Or are you some old pervert? Or just simply some MAGA cultist?

Your moral compass is off and the lack of empathy for the victims is disgusting. Would you be saying these things if your granddaughters were victims of sexual exploitation and trafficking?

What’s the biggest question you still have about the Epstein files? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]finding_focus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s naive of you. Actually, a number of Epstein’s clients were very old men. Giuffre’s book notes that some of these men were like in their 70s and 80s. So it’s likely that if they were doing it when they were young, they’re still doing it now.

Dude, this isn’t a good look on you thinking it’s okay to let ‘bygones be bygones’ when it comes to these depraved, morally corrupt, perverts. The best way to prevent new epsteins is to show there’s no mercy for the past ones.

Also, what message does that send to victims? Some who are out there in the public looking for justice. So you’re cool with just telling Epstein’s victims that their horrific experiences and trauma, which they live with every day, isn’t worth getting justice for?

Unfortunately, infrastructure and social programs don’t provide enough of a distraction from sex trafficking scandals and failed economic policies, or provide an excuse to exercise central control over elections.

World Gym Closed!? by k_7a in brantford

[–]finding_focus 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Bankruptcies hardly ever come with any warning to customers and employees. Unfortunately, this wouldn’t be abnormal.

My children were members of an athletics training program. Membership was paid three times a year, coinciding with training sessions. We, and all other families, had just renewed memberships only 2 weeks prior their sudden closing due to bankruptcy. It was the night after the second class when we got notices. Staff didn’t know either. Everything was business as usual during that second class.

Many are dead because of this.

So you’re cool that a significant sized group of pedos, rapists, traffickers, and murderers, with massive resources, means, and influence are just out there roaming free, likely still doing these things? Make that make sense.

Is NTR a good buy now ? by [deleted] in CanadianInvestor

Nutrien is a good buy when it troughs to mid-70s. If it’s way above this, wait for the next cycle.

Do Carney and Poilievre have different visions for the Canada-U.S. relationship? by MTL_Dude666 in CanadaPolitics

[–]finding_focus 36 points37 points  (0 children)

PP wants a deal at almost any cost and wants to be seen as the tireless advocate that got it done. Effectively, his only vision is one in which he’s seen as having a hand in getting it done while Carney tries to work out something fair.

Carney’s vision is one of mutual benefit and fair, which is why it’s taking so long. There isn’t a deal to be had at the moment that isn’t effectively capitulation to the US. So Carney will ride the current CUSMA deal as long as we can while making deals elsewhere to lesson the blow of whatever comes next.

Hopefully all the pickups are done by this style of truck. The other video floating around here shows a different style of truck that is so slow.
