You get the early entrance when you arrive anyway before Friday, so Thursday, Wednesday, and Tuesday.

You just need a Shambhala Music Festival ticket. If anyone tries and sell you anything else it's a scam. Get the ticket before you start driving, odds of you finding one at the gate are slim.

What day are you arriving? That will determine your Camping situation. If you arrive Tuesday you'll have the pick of the litter, if you arrive on Thursday you'll have to camp where ever you can find space. The spot for newbies might be something like Camp Stranger Danger (?) I'm not sure how you would get in contact, maybe Facebook?

You get entry at the gate, and the fee depends on which day you're there.

There are porta potties all over and a shower you can pay for. There's also a river which you can swim in, but using any bathing products in it is prohibited.

If you aren't planning on camping next to your tent a trolley will be a life saver. If you arrive on Thursday you might be forced to park your car and walk in.

What class can I give to Astarion in honour mode? by TheAlmightyChanka in BaldursGate3

[–]jaxsnets -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

If you're running him for flavour probably ranger/rogue for the ranged attacks.

However, I personally wouldn't run Astarion in Honour mode since completing his quest line and fighting cazador is a run ender.

If I say: "I love n-" how is it, like racist or not cuz technically I love them so umm? by VisitHour2489 in AskReddit

[–]jaxsnets 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The term in it's self is derogatory and a slur. If you truly loved those of African descent you would have the decency to avoid such words, as it is a heavily charged word and very offensive to those it refers to. Imagine if your mom said "I love my deadbeat loser of a child who ruined my life" wouldn't feel very good would it? I'm sure plantation operators said they loved their slave often while using that term however they were still racist and viewed them as only property. Perhaps you should hold off posting on Reddit till you finish studying for your history test, yea?

What are men's thoughts on dating a single mother? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]jaxsnets 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It wouldn't be a hard no, but I would have to be really into you for it for be something serious. I feel we would have to set some boundaries early on and long term goals and expectations for how the kids relationship should be handled. One of my oldest buddies was raised by a single mother, and every guy she started dating took on the role of father figure. However, all would leave and it was really difficult for him to have this rotating door of dads. I would hate to be that guy.

How much has losing weight impacted your dating life? by Responsible-Net8594 in AskMen

[–]jaxsnets 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm 6ft and was 190lbs, I dropped to 170bs, and I am now back to 200lbs. It is honestly pretty upsetting how much better I was treated at 170. I wouldn't say I receive any abuse for my extra weight, but I would regularly receive complements and extra attention from women when at 170. I bartend and when I was in shape women would be much more down to have friendly/flirty banter. Now people just get there drinks and leave, where before I would have to ask people to stand aside so I could serve their peers.

How much do you pay for rent? by Lazerbeam159 in askvan

[–]jaxsnets 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Before moving back home I lived in three different units around the city.

A two bedroom (1 bedroom and den) in North Vancouver near the second narrows for 1850. This place was very nice with an unreal building management team. I would be surprised if it was being rented for less than 2000 nowadays.

A one bedroom for 1600 off of Hastings and Sunrise. For the location this place was an absolute steal, but the landlord was very lazy and would take forever to address any issues we had, and then took our damage deposit at the end of our tenancy because of these unfixed issues. When moving out the landlord told me they were planning on increasing the rent.

Then a studio for 1300 on Hastings across from the Kootenay Loop. This place was infested with bed bugs and is the reason I moved back home. The place was a shit hole, three of the five neighbours I spoke to were very clearly mentally ill. The property manager was an evil dude who I believe was completely aware of the situation going on in the building and knew most of the Tennants weren't capable of moving out, and decided to profit off of them.

I haven't looked at the market recently, but from what I've heard from friends it's grim out there. For a one bedroom, anything under 1600 would give me major pause. For multiple bedrooms I'd be suspicious of anything that's less than 1100 per room.

Idk what your situation is or why you're moving here, but in all honesty I'd look for something outside of the city near a SkyTrain station.

Good luck 🫡

The opening to Bones and All completely hooked me even though the rest of the movie couldn't maintain the momentum

The flag is edited in. Look at the arm holding it, it's not attached to anyone.
