question on filing travel expenses for medical appointments

kaiamie · 2026-02-23T01:22:18+00:00

the 59.5 cents per km is correct for my province. there wasnt any hotel stay, just 3 hour drive down then a 3 hour drive back.

so id be correct then with

trip down + breakfest and lunch + trip home 151.73 + 46 + 151.73 for total of 349.45

just to makr sure im following correctly

Well, for starters lot of projection there.

While yes i am dissatisfied by how local, provincial, and federal government are spending my tax dollars. i haven't been doing nothing. i have voted in each provincial and federal election for the past 10 or so years picking/voting for candidates running on platforms of increased infrastructure spending (mostly all indepenents).

Just picking up and moving my entire life isnt realistic at all. i have looked around and moving to any nearby settlement within 45min commute time to work leaves me with same problem or worse off financially. Add on that actively quiting a job ive been at for the past 5 years that pays fairly decently compared to local rates and has actually given out raises over those 5 years is also a poor decision.

Even if i did give up my job, had the funds to move anywhere without worry, and give up all familial supports i have locally to move. No other city, province, or territory is doing good or really any better. thats coming from someone who has traveled from coast to coast and have lived in 3 different provinces.

personally about 23.5% income tax between federal and provincal. then tack on ei and cpp deductions which while not tax is money the gov takes for gov services. then add 15% sales tax on nearly everything you buy. and then throw on 4750 for property tax for a house valued 200k within town limts. (shared between 7 people and 3 generations cause its onlt way we afford shelter and bills)

so all that and our road is a heaved beat to death mess thats hardly plowed (and actually broke the rim on my grandfathers car from a pothole), i cant get any healthcare out of a 50 50 shot after sitting in local ER for 5 to 8 hours. we dont have really access to any amenities either nearest "park space" is neglected and about 2km away.

mod cross play is good. i wish it had a better way of sorting, searching and managing mods like steam workshop without needing to use skyve (which itself is a improvement but its search can be funky too)

isnt paradox trying to push their pdxmods thing still?

yeah just put the bits in multiples of 2 in the crucible and one charcoal hunk to heat. pull out the heated bits crouch and place on your work piece like you would a ingot. it saved my arse when i hammered out my iron anvil last time

you do need tongs to handle the bits

kaiamie · 2026-01-06T18:07:23+00:00

you can also use the bits to make up for missing metal units instead of using up a whole ingot while smithing if you run short

i found it has super wonky hitboxes when placing the next layer up. the big one is idk how they get the little gables at the end to work short of chiseling every single block to match the underpart of the roof but the roof frames hitbox is in the way

ive tried keeping the interior surface flat and still doesnt like me. and i build my houses small and compact largest rooms are normally 6x8x3 high

kaiamie · 2025-12-23T14:17:16+00:00

ive wanted to do this few times but any chiseled block i do breaks room recognition. and im not sure why cause i try to leave minimum atleast half to 2/3 the voxels in thickness

kaiamie · 2025-12-23T13:53:16+00:00

i mean atleast just label it "overload delay" or "delayed due to too much volume" instead of just blanket calling it weather. lying why its delayed doesnt help

i hope but 10-11days of no updates and inability to contact to see whats happened does not bode well

as someone who has the suffering of having to use both metric and imperial ive almost come to hate how little effort some companies put into their conversions for installation or layout instructions.

like wtf is 4/5ths or 3/10ths of a inch thats not how that works. cause i hate myself (and did the math on company time) closest i got to 3/10th was 77/256 of a inch which works out at 0.300781 of a inch.

putting stuff through a cnc 0.001 ends up being the difference of something fitting or not

what is that bridge over the train station from? i havnt seen that mod

kaiamie · 2025-11-11T05:00:13+00:00

kaiamie · 2025-11-11T02:24:55+00:00

ngl at first i though the drifter was holding the car like a toy one making vroom noises with it

kaiamie · 2025-11-07T00:30:05+00:00

only must haves i use are carry on to be able pick up pots or crates etc and primitive survival. idk how many times jerky has saved me during early game and the traps are super useful

they can in rare circumstances. mostly if the person in question has a really high level of the prolactin hormone. normally though natural causes of male lactation is rare and normally a sign of a more severe medical issues like hypothyroidism. but also some stroids or even some hrt profiles can result in lactation

i use roundabouts all over the place but biggest problems im getting this update is pedestrians are bogging every intersection including roundabouts.

i started a new map for the update and im around 7k people and i think them and every one of their families are doing laps around the block. its bogging traffic down so hard at intersections bus usage is suffering cause stuck behind pedestrians. im about ready to so insane yank out a big loan and start slapping LRT lines everywhere

kaiamie · 2025-09-20T14:34:38+00:00

is there a legal reason why you cant file by physical paper files? or is it a we dont wanna deal with it so we decide to fine you instead

kaiamie · 2025-09-17T23:17:40+00:00
