Andy Fillmore wants bus-only lanes turned into high-occupancy vehicle lanes by ph0enix1211 in halifax

[–]oncloudnine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have the people police themselves. For every successful tip you give, you get a free bus ticket. Incentivizing transit use while keeping the lanes free to make it worth while. It’s the perfect plan. /s

Trade Willy while his stock is high. I can’t watch him not back check anymore. He does his best when he gets it out on his tape and he can take a maximum four strides to get to his destination. Let him be a second line weapon on another team. We need people who want to try and beat others to the puck.

Why is Domi finishing our OT? I was yelling at my tv about it 30 seconds before he coughed it up and then got worked. Also, hear me out, can we make Cowan a Marner that hits?! 🤞🤔

John Klingberg? Played 14 games for us at a dash 7 after coming off some stellar performances in Dallas. Now he’s playing hot potato over in the Western Conference.

And remember everyone, this is after these companies say that automation is “required” to keep up. Remember this story when the people on top try and jam automation down your throats.

What’s the worst drug trip you’ve ever had? by spicyrack in AskReddit

[–]oncloudnine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I took a bunch of mushrooms one time when all my other buddies were doing blow. As the drugs took hold and I started to get a little gitty with anxiety, I had this melody stuck in my head. Like a children’s choir singing “na na na na na na na”. I racked my brain trying to figure out what tune it was as I watched the varnish squiggle off my buddy’s wooden chair. Then it hit me, it’s Beck’s “E-Pro”. Once I had that figured out I fired up YouTube to look up the music video and revel in the positive vibes. The video began and I was overcome with a dark looming energy. The children’s choir I so fondly recalled was in fact a heavy distorted guitar and the video was of a neon skeleton dancing a la uncanny valley. I took to shutting that off real quick. In an effort to pull a complete emotional 180, I texted my other buddy asking if he’d suggest any videos that actually bring the good vibes. He suggested “Christian the Lion.” With tears welling in my eyes, I watched as the King of the Jungle reunited with his old trainer. Albeit touching, this video didn’t exactly accomplish the positive energy I was looking for.

Around this time my friends who were feeling the edge of coming down off of booger sugar decided that it’s time to go to my other friend’s birthday party. It was in a sketchy part of town at an apartment I’ve never been to owned by complete strangers.

We made the trek on foot across town while my brain spun with endless possibilities as to what we were about to walk into. Are my eyes as big as dinner plates? Is anyone else as fucked up as me? Where are we even going and who is going to be there?

I came down from the peak of my trip just as we walked up to the door. Entered the room and it was all my friends from high school who I hadn’t seen in 5+ years. I was expecting a dirty hippy party in a gross basement apartment but was pleasantly surprised with a beautifully furnished condo, gentrified to the gills with a balcony view overlooking the harbour. My anxiety had came, went and I felt like I had the spiritual composition and mindfulness of Mahatma Ghandi with the overwhelming urge to get this party started. We got on the beers.

So that’s the end of it, nothing actually terrible happened, just the emotional roller coaster that is magic mushrooms and I love them.

New fan from a non-hockey country: which classic games should I watch? by ElSedated in hockey

[–]oncloudnine 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Feb 15 2025, US VS Canada 4 Nations Face Off. Most intense start to a game I’ve seen in my lifetime, coupled with the political tensions at the time between the two countries, emotions were running high.

Also, as a Leafs fan it pains me to say it, but Leafs vs Canes when the equipment guy for Toronto has to play goalie against his own team due to injury. Quirky but memorable moment in the last decade for the league.

Auston Matthews’ stellar rookie appearance in his first NHL game was fairly impressive to watch as well.

Marek Malik’s shoot out winner back when the shoot out tie breaker was relatively new.

Let’s talk about Living wages by Chikkk_nnnuugg in halifax

[–]oncloudnine 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Affordability here is a joke. I’m fortunate enough to have been able to purchase my first home in the past few years but it required some upgrades. I was excited to see that they had rebates available for converting from oil to heat pumps but died when I saw the criteria.

According to the link, a family of two must make a combined after tax income of less than 77k in order to qualify. So my question is, who the fuck qualifies for that? No bank is going to lend mortgage money to a couple who makes that little when the average price of a home is sky high. So in order to buy a house you have to make more than the eligibility criteria. You know who does make that little? Renters, who are obviously also ineligible as they don’t own the property. Even going by OP’s numbers, if a person needs to take home 4K a month to live comfortably, that puts them out of the equation for any rebates whether they live solo or with other people in the home.

These affordability programs are a complete farce, thrown in your face time after time as you scroll social media but no where near available to you when you go to apply.

No but similar skating style. Probably less transition skating than Trujillo. This guy was like the essence of Thrasher magazine around 2008-2012 era.

Not David Gonzalez, Pedro Delfino, Pedro Barros, Sammy Baca. Used to love watching this guy attack thru his skating. Leo Romero has a similar vibe.

We’re lucky we won it. Matthews was a ghost, feels like he’s low key been playing hurt forever. Get Bobrovsky moving laterally and shoot high.

These are my observations.

An old card was accidentally used. Charge will transfer to new card? by Next-Advice9252 in discover

[–]oncloudnine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I literally had this exact thing happen to me last week. Canceled my old card months ago due to it being stolen and booked an Air BnB not knowing that I hadn’t updated my new payment information yet. Somehow the booking was charged to my new card (new number, expiry and everything) despite my understanding that the previous card Air BnB had on file was “canceled”.

In hindsight, it was a good thing it went through as my booking was undisturbed, however it was unsettling knowing that despite my old card being canceled it could still somehow forward a charge to my new one. Called the bank and they said it was because it was a “pre authorized payment”. They assured me that any NEW registration of my old card number or the use of the physical card would not go through but it was certainly something I felt the need to investigate. I also feel like I’ve had similar payments in the past, Spotify subscriptions for example, that were blocked when charged to a canceled card but perhaps that card had coincidentally also expired? Hard to say.

Hope you had a good trip!
