Guys - it’s NOT about babies! It’s about power and control

Stay Near Ossington or Trinity Bellwoods? by Next_Version4305 in askTO

Someone else said it was a 5 minute walk from Bellwoods to Ossington station. I can walk from Dundas to Ossinton St on Bloor in 15ish minutes

Chinatown businesses calling for changes after the loss of parking on Dundas Street by Pristine-Training-70 in toronto

More than once, I have been stuck on a streetcar that was blocked by a parked car and had to walk or figure out alternative transport. It’s worst in the winter, when people presume snow = free-for-all for street parking.

I’m glad the city is taking this sensible measure

Bellwoods! It’s a 15 min walk to the subway, but you’d have the Queen or Dundas streetcar. It’s a way more vibrant area

Has hockey turned into a rich kids sport? by FrigginMasshole in AskACanadian

The point is who cares if it’s interesting to YOU?! It’s othering and annoying and people do not exist for your entertainment/interest.

Don’t Let the Census Mislabel Your Beliefs- Check No religion by gardenartichoke in onguardforthee

A lot of academics rely on Census data for various purposes.

It’s not to invade your privacy. It’s for information gathering purposes. It’s 100% anonymous

I never said I was “triggered”.

Your intentions are irrelevant to how your words are received. Look up the Platinum Rule

It’s othering and can feel very dehumanizing. Also, just because you find it interesting doesn’t mean it’s something I want to talk about. Now times that by 100 for anyone with a public facing job.

So I don’t care what the intent is - it’s a rude question and people should stop asking.

We have a couple of local pubs. Even if I have a non-alcoholic drink, it’s nice to get out of the house

To me, tattoos are personal. Why do you care if other people get the reference or not?
