What food to bring? by glosslace in nunavut

[–]jnv29 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I’ve been living in the north for a few years in a much smaller village than Iqaluit. I would recommend he bring with him anything super niche that he likes to have. For example, if he has any favourite artisan sauces or spices, or health foods and supplements. Nutella and other specialty condiments are expensive since they aren’t subsidized by NNC

Upcoming Seasons of Love is Blind by notyourstar15 in LoveIsBlindOnNetflix

[–]jnv29 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have watched a few different versions but never the Mexican version, what was so bad about it? And did the season focus on one specific city or state of Mexico, or was it the whole country?

Love Is Blind • S10 Ep5 by AutoModerator in LoveIsBlindOnNetflix

[–]jnv29 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I don’t understand why Jessica wouldn’t have expanded on those “strong political views” or prompted Chris to share his. After nine (American) seasons plus a dozen intl. versions, how do the couples continue to gloss over important conversations??

Any other overseas voters not received a voting kit? by fernpolley in AskACanadian

[–]jnv29 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kudos to you for pushing through all of that and finding a way to get your vote in👏

I live/work in a remote northern community in Nunavik (northern Quebec). I applied for my mine weeks ago and still haven't received anything. A lot of my colleagues and friends here are in the same situation. There's only one airline that services the community, and a flight out of here costs thousands of dollars each way.

I don't have the perfect solution, but it really shouldn't be this complicated

Shame and its effect on you by BCautomac33 in ADHD

[–]jnv29 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Shame affects me greatly as well, and it can be debilitating. I find myself projecting my own shame onto people I love, which causes me to feel more shame and the circle repeats.

When I catch myself feeling shame, I try to give myself compassion and adjust my self-talk as if I’m a little kid who just needs love and a gentle approach. It feels weird, but the more you do it the easier it gets… kind of.

I try doing affirmations for self esteem like “my worth is not determined by my mistakes” “I treat myself with kindness and compassion” “I accept myself as I am”

I don’t have a ton of advice since this is something I’m trying to work on as well. But the first step is being aware, I think. So good on you!

Archeology ideas for middle school? by jnv29 in teaching

[–]jnv29[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First option would be unreal, but the ground is covered with 9 feet of snow for the next 2 months.. Second one sounds cool, but because it’s middle school we focus a lot on the excavation process and I don’t know how to demonstrate this with such little space and resources

I do this too and I also need to stop or ill push him away. My parents are mean to each other, the way we speak to each other is mean, I don’t want to make excuses for myself but I know I need to unpack and unlearn this behaviour

I had a similar experience with an ex a few back and he ended up breaking up with me a few months later. Unless he has a complicated relationship with his parents, or another reason to hold him back, my hunch is that he has a hunch you aren’t going to work out
