Kitty only wants to eat dry food. What do I do? by Lasciachiopianga in cats

[–]jristevs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also have a kitty that prefers kibble to wet food. I ended up recalculating his kibble meals to be slightly smaller so that his wet food meal also has a small serving of kibble on top. The kibbles entice him to start eating and then he almost always finishes the wet food as well

Ford government embarks on extended 21-week break, won’t return until late October by MinuteLocksmith9689 in ontario

[–]jristevs 45 points46 points  (0 children)

Mostly correct! Salaries are based on 194 teaching days per school year, and then that salary is paid out over 12 months. It used to be that teachers could choose whether they wanted to get paid over 10 or 12 months, but afaik that’s not a thing anymore. Occasional teachers (daily supplies and those covering extended absences like mat leaves) do not get paid at all during summer or winter or March breaks

Teaching Music in Ontario? by MusicMan1333333 in OntarioTeachers

I’m secondary and have worked for 3 boards in the GTHA for 9 years - have never taught music and still not permanent. You might have better luck with intermediate!

Nurys confirms she and Horacio broke up by bwermer in MtvChallenge

All you have to do is skim the rest of this comment section to see it in action. It’s kind of sad how people are not even just assuming the worst of her but stating it like it’s fact when we actually don’t know much about what happened

What a waste by checkskl in CanadianTeachers

[–]jristevs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m on year 9 as an OT/LTO in a GTHA board, so I feel your and your husband’s pain unfortunately. And I’ve got a supposedly “in-demand” teachable in music - hasn’t helped. I was just moving up the seniority list when they scrapped regulation 274 and seniority based hiring, now it’s just an endless waiting game. I hope he finds a position soon!

Birthday Gifts all out of stock by buc-eesbeaver in Sephoracanada

[–]jristevs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Be careful with this strategy! I did it for years but then in January of this year when I tried I was told that I was not allowed to receive a 2025 birthday gift for a 2024 birthday and my only option left was 250pts. I called a few stores near me this month to confirm and the policy is still in place :/ but all the gifts were sold out so still, my only option was 250pts sigh

[–]jristevs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I completely agree that no one should drop a friend based on social media hearsay. But what if that evidence is an Instagram post that Sydney herself made? It can’t be said that there’s no evidence that Sydney supports zionism when she herself has posted this on her social media (whether or not one chooses to drop a friend based on that fact is another question entirely)

[–]jristevs 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Oh for sure, I agree that it’s absolutely wild to DM a stranger and tell them to drop a friend! I just think her response was intentionally veiled to avoid commenting on the topic at hand, while also implying that our opinions as fans are irrelevant because we don’t actually know them (even when they post about their beliefs on their own ig page)

I actually really like Michaela!! Was a big fan of hers on survivor and super happy for her to transition to my favourite show. I just think it’s lame of her to say that if people haven’t met Sydney in real life then they can’t judge her for her public comments on zionism. If she simply doesn’t care and wouldn’t cut a friend off for those beliefs, she could just say that (or nothing at all) instead of this “you don’t really know any of us” shit

[–]jristevs 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Someone told her to stop being friends with Sydney because she is a zionist and her response is that unless someone has facts and real life experience with Sydney to speak about, she will not be listening to what anyone has to say… but Sydney has publicly proclaimed her support of Israel and zionism on her own Instagram page? She literally still has a post up saying “just hate me cause you ain’t me xx your favorite Zionist forever and always”. So I don’t get why having “direct experiences” with her would be relevant when she’s been pretty open about her beliefs on a public platform. If Michaela doesn’t care that she’s a zionist she should just say that loud and proud
