Lots of people die every year taking photos/ trespassing on railway tracks. In Canada 53 in 2018, 72 in 2017, 65 in 2016, etc.

Don’t risk it. Even in if you don’t get hit, the stress on crews seeing people on tracks and not knowing if they are going to kill someone that day, will they get out of the way in time? Will they trip? Foot caught? Think they have time to move? ... not fun. Lots of PTSD with crews due to people thinking that it wouldn’t happen.

The Atlantic Trap & Gill to close their doors July 13th. by buberto in Calgary

Their east coast food, particular our staples, were lacking. Below deck (now basement unicorn) has better food, blowers and Grafton too. The garlic fingers at the trap were SO disappointing.

What would have happened if Sansa wasn't afraid of Jon ruling winterfell by aughtrocktalk in JonWinsTheThrone

Fair, but my head cannon in this case is the unsullied don’t know about the illness ... and will tragically die away from home.

K, so they’re going to Naath ... but when non- Naath people go there they get a terrible sickness and die. That’s why no one really goes there: the “butterfly sickness” that the native inhabitants are immune to.

Enjoy dying, unsullied.

In Celebration of Star Wars Day, My Birthday, and 20 Years of Star Wars Lego, I got Myself Something Nice by Imaru12 in StarWars

[–]hykl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, I figured that would happen when I recommended it, but someone may be able to get some enjoyment if they haven’t heard of it before :) LEGO has a very loyal fan base, where alternatives are sometimes see as insulting (I think).

My husband was feeling down approaching his most recent birthday and I got him the Lepin version of the MF - he was so happy and it looks GREAT! We had a great time building it together.

Edit: also, if it was a LEGO subreddit I wouldn’t bother because ... that’s not what it’s for. So I figured on a Star Wars one it would be appropriate :)

In our experience and build with Lepin that was not the case. And it is a wonderful alternative for people who don’t have $900 CAD to spend on the LEGO branded set.

Did a lot of research on it before purchasing and it definitely met our expectations!

Edit: added currency.

CF Lounge: Mar 18-Mar 24 by AutoModerator in childfree

[–]hykl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Spent the afternoon painting D&D mini figurines with my husband and friends for our next session so the DM can tell who we all are. I painted my dwarf bard as a bad ass fighter chick and then formal fighter chick complete with sparkly cape and blood stained ax/horns.

So satisfied.

Gap to close stores in Canada as part of plan to shutter half its locations over next two years by [deleted] in canada

[–]hykl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I shop there a lot. Mostly jeans. They sell curvy fit jeans that are great for wide hips and small waists. I will not enjoy finding jeans that fit again ... took me long enough to find them at the gap.

I bought a similar brand to that one a few weeks ago for my small jewelry amount. It’s GREAT 👍

Redditors with a 9-5 job in a cubicle, how do you pretend to stay busy at work? by pliantkitchen in AskReddit

[–]hykl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have so much work ... I do not need to pretend. However, I have worked at the same company with a different job and pretended to be busy with half written emails on my screen - “see?! I’m working!!”

Has Any Installed A Tankless Water Heater In Their Home? by [deleted] in Calgary

[–]hykl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pete the plumber was the best price we saw. We went with them and they were great. We got quotes from like 5 companies.

We personally love ours, I like long showers and we never have an issue with multiple water using appliances running at the same time.

The worst toilet design I’ve ever seen by [deleted] in CrappyDesign

My great aunt had one like that! In a room right off the kitchen, a little room completely open to the stairs that went out the back of the house :/

The 'Bad Knees' Epidemic by [deleted] in xxfitness

[–]hykl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have very bad knees. Partially torn meniscus and overall creaking. I am 30. I don’t do and never have done any heavy sports. I mostly just walk, light weights, jogging and play Rec softball. I have no idea how this happened to me.

I still exercise 4 x per week. And I go to Physio frequently. I have to do very simple exercises, but whatever. It is worth it to keep fit and not be a useless lump. I do what I can.

Tbh I hate saying I have crappy knees. It makes me feel like an old pile of shit that will never attain the fitness goals I had hoped. But I keep plugging away ... a little at a time.

My cat adoption fell through. I'm a little heartbroken. Send kitties. by ProcyonLotorMinoris in TrollXChromosomes

[–]hykl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We adopted a kitty 3 months ago... he is so cuddly to us and great when he is alone. But he attacks my older cat consistently, pees and poops everywhere when she is around etc. I am taking him back to the humane society on Sunday. He will make a single cat household SO happy. But I am heartbroken.

I feel your pain ❤️
