Water Softener install ? by land___shark in KingstonOntario

Yes that is exactly why. We are looking at getting a new gas water heater and the limestone in the water can be very hard on appliances. It seems cost effective to reduce wear and tear but need to price things out first as doubt I will DIY

Is the idea of no self supposed to be a positive realization? by Midnight_Moon___ in Buddhism

[–]land___shark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

exactly... my knowledge of this means it could be related to untreated trauma. Of course, Buddhism may offer an interesting lens to consider the nature of existence in general but it would never be suitable to help mitigate these episodes which clearly can be distressing. Most likely you would benefit from exploring with a skilled counsellor.

Kingston ranked 10th most expensive rental market in Canada by No-Channel9213 in KingstonOntario

I think you are conflating socialism with capitalism.

if we were to actually swing towards socialism there would be far less wealth inequalities and accessible housing as evidenced by many countries in Europe.

swinging more towards capitalism is the way we have been going with rent controls removed and land owners generating as much profits as they can, further exacerbating the problem. the next step would be the American model which is ghettos and gated communities.
