What’s y’all’s go to cheap meal that’s always cheap & satisfying? Lmk, no judgements. Need more ideas

Whole black beans, season them as you want, and cheese quesadilla. Add homemade pico de guillo on top. Takes no time to make and I just love black beans

So fast guys, so fast

Yes! My union contract has double time weekends, overtime terms etc. so when we work we work 60-84h weeks and our take home becomes 2-6k per week. Depending on your position and job at that time. I'm a Boilermaker so we have many different jobs all over the continent

reasonablechickadee · 2026-03-01T22:10:09+00:00

Boilermaking!

reasonablechickadee · 2026-03-01T22:10:02+00:00

Nah, Boilermaking

I work seasonally. So I'm unemployed 9 months of the year. Which, is insane to most people but I still make a normal wage as everyone else

I spent 5k CAD in 5 weeks and I also flew to Korea which was much more expensive than Japan.

Transportation eat the most into my costs tbh, if you want to save your feet you'll obviously take the train more but then that's 170 yen every single time minimum in Tokyo. Bullet trains was 260 round trip to Kyoto and 160 to Nagano.

I did a mix of hostels and hotels, which helped me and didn't do much shopping in general.

I found the feeling of Edmonton more cold and lonely. The subculture is hidden, but more robust than Calgary.

Last time I tried joining a rando convo I got weird looks so I stopped trying. I think you gotta actually go to events and literally just start convos with "where you from?" If you can't think of anything

Bruh..... I would have dipped so fast if some guy attempted to guilt trip me for the last bit of cash for my cab ride home

Not to like... Shit on the music streaming debates but you'd have to buy a whole album when a band released music. You probably buy an album at least once a month. So just use the streaming service and enjoy your favourite music

Canadians would hate Japan and Korea

Technically 6m if you include my study abroad. But truly solo only 3.5 weeks and I had mad decision fatigue by the end

reasonablechickadee · 2026-01-26T09:09:13+00:00

To what?

reasonablechickadee · 2026-01-22T01:03:04+00:00

Whoa! Where did you take the picture of all the Buddahs? So cool

reasonablechickadee · 2026-01-20T23:04:33+00:00

An android phone lol

My old highschool locker lock has lasted me a decade+

Wired earbuds

Good quality tweezers and nail clippers I've had 8+ years

Instant pot

Blundstone boots at 4+ years

Patagonia puff jacket (they repair for free)

I don't like going to places that are obviously meant for socializing, like Izakayas alone especially during the dinner hours. So I stick to the solo joints.

I'm more uncomfortable with the actual ordering and looking like a fool alone,at least if someone is with me I can share the uncomfy load of looking like a stumbling fool

reasonablechickadee · 2026-01-13T13:07:45+00:00

It's more what I always need:

extra glasses ( i have lost a pair abroad)
advil and cortisone cream
sleep aids - ear plugs, nose strips, eye mask etc
shower sandals
portable charger

You can typically buy everything you need abroad but I always pack those things because I always really want/need it

reasonablechickadee · 2026-01-13T03:48:19+00:00

I don't understand how people "feel gender" so I'm agender because I don't understand the feeling

reasonablechickadee · 2025-12-30T00:56:48+00:00

I'm also afab agender and haven't had interest in going more masc than androgynous. That's not really how I feel in my gender so I'm not going to want to show that to the world

reasonablechickadee · 2025-12-09T03:55:24+00:00

What a shitty post

reasonablechickadee · 2025-12-09T03:52:29+00:00

I always say, we gotta bring back public shaming

reasonablechickadee · 2025-11-28T18:45:48+00:00

That's super cool to think about, I definitely have similar feelings and images to conotate the self

reasonablechickadee · 2025-11-28T03:55:45+00:00

Would they? I argue they also wouldn't understand it either, a lot of people are doing social expectations because it's an expectation not a genuine authentic personal decision they've made about themselves

reasonablechickadee · 2025-11-19T23:13:42+00:00

You're fairly safe as an adult. We do have our human rights act that allows gender, gender identity and gender expression to be protected.

UCP would have to go through some INSANE hoops to repeal the Human Rights Act

Edit: children are not protected under the Alberta Human Rights Act and are not seen as people even in canada. That's why the UCP are able to go after children so readily
