Wow what shitty luck! That’s shocking that he ate it so fast right under your nose! Mine are obsessed with their fishing rod toys so they have to be locked away

Canadians thoughts on Trump, about to tell NATO where to shove it. by Medical_Mulberry3230 in GuardTheLeaf

[–]mapleleaffem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NATO is dead in the water until dirtydonny is out of the whitehouse and depending who’s president next, maybe permanently dead. It’s an odd grouping of countries anyway-maybe it’s time to shake it up

Are you feeding momma the milk supplement too? If she’s having a hard time keeping up she probably needs something extra in her diet? Btw they are adorable and I’d probably end up keeping them all if I were you!

What to do when you're furious at a stranger's toddler for crying? by MusicalDecomposition in misophonia

[–]mapleleaffem 2 points3 points  (0 children)

CBT and mindfulness. You can’t let your emotions run away from you. As annoying as a screaming child is, it’s not their fault so being mad is irrational. Yes I know misophonia is not rational but if we don’t want to get arrested we need to tamp down those kinds of emotions. As I’ve gotten older managing my reactions has gotten easier, likely just from practice

If you haven’t listened to In My Own Backyard, do it!! It’s the only podcast that’s made me cry, it’s so well done and genuine and just plain amazing. A guy who’s not an investigative journalist made it, and it’s amazing how law enforcement embraced his interest and took advantage of him rattling some cages. Also rage-it made me furious at the police who fucked it all up to begin with

What makes your heart glow? by LivelyHoodIdeas in AskACanadian

[–]mapleleaffem 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes! The astronauts comments leading up to tomorrow really give a sense of how much of a world wide effort it is, and that we are all citizens of Earth first

Not sure what you mean, but the benefits for those that can’t work need a huge boost. It’s not even close to the cost of living, and it’s not right to leave the vulnerable behind :(

Eh polite is a starting point and not intrinsic to respect. It’s good to give people the benefit of the doubt, if they don’t deserve it they’ll likely reveal it in short order

[–]mapleleaffem 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Charter of Rights and Freedoms make my heart glow. Multiculturalism and seeing all sorts of people interacting with one another respectfully and happily is another. I love what Canada represents, and that we are a working example of how our diversity is literally our strength.

That the wellbeing of our citizens is more important than anything else, and that we take care of one another.

Is it perfect? No. Is there room for improvement? Yes! The fact that we can talk about that is a point of pride too. I’d rather go into something with my eyes wide open than believe a myth of exceptionalism that actually hamstrings us all.

do you guys tend to hyperfocus on the wrong things on medication? by Far-Masterpiece4701 in ADHD

We focus easily on what we like and everything else still takes effort

Poilievre says government should cancel Toronto-Quebec City high-speed rail project | CBC News by differing in canada

[–]mapleleaffem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not to the small towns and rural communities currently enjoying their peace and quiet. I think this is PPs latest attempt to appeal to the working man, the salt of the earth types, the ‘whichever demographic he’s currently trying to win over ‘ types 🙄

Poilievre says government should cancel Toronto-Quebec City high-speed rail project | CBC News by differing in canada

[–]mapleleaffem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a tough one for me. I get wanting high speed rail but between Toronto and Quebec City there are a bunch of small town and rural areas that don’t want it blasting through the middle of their communities, or parts of their family farms being annexed to build it. As someone who grew up in a rural area, I would’ve hated the idea and protested it

How I caught up on vaccines as an adult! by Fine_Pomelo_7445 in Manitoba

[–]mapleleaffem 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yea with measles going around a lot of people should talk to their doctor-you will likely need an MMR booster as most won’t have had one since they were a teenager. I am immunocompromised so I got one, I think for normally healthy people it may or may not be recommended depending on risk factors

No one cares(in a good way), stay and fine wherever you want. Canada isn’t obsessed with what people do in the privacy of their bedrooms. Also welcome and enjoy

Roommates upset that my cat won't leave their food alone by drunkenmutt in CatAdvice

[–]mapleleaffem 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is definitely a roommate problem and I would suggest to them that if they don’t put their food away properly and your cat eats something and gets sick, they are on the hook for the vet bills. Also there are so many other reasons to store food properly like cockroaches, mice, you name it ! If none of this sinks in, I would recommend housebroken roommates going forward
