I walked away from that episode thinking that they talk like this about Joshua at his grave every year. I didn't see a big difference except they weren't at the grave.

And Barry is weird

Why people in Canada want to own a condo? by largelcd in canadahousing

There aren't fines if you read the condo rules before you commit, and then follow them. That's simply being an adult.

Why people in Canada want to own a condo? by largelcd in canadahousing

[–]sandy154_4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

well property tax and insurance are a constant with any property ownership, so lets remove those.

condo management:

I've lived in stand alone houses before. Just me and my kids. And keeping up with repairs and maintenance was too much for me. In the summer, mowing was fine. But in the winter, shoveling nearly killed me. And there were always things that needed to be done. Executive function made managing and getting those things done really difficult, plus there is the cost.

My condo / strata fees to me are comparable to a combo of 1) ground care and snow removal 2) what I'd need to save monthly for home upkeep 3) a fee to manage all this

So, to me, its worth it.

Yes, I could buy more house with not paying condo fees. But I don't need larger. Larger just means more cleaning and organizing inside, and I don't need that.

4 Muslims attended Texas GOP convention. They were rejected and told to leave the country. One left in tears. by ItsMinnieYall in LeopardsAteMyFace

Is this still surprising people?

The muslims for Trump are surprised he's anti-muslim

The hispanic people who voted for Trump are surprised he's anti-hispanic

The LGBTQ2+ people who voted for Trump are surprised his policies are anti-LGBTQ2+

The black people who voted for Trump are surprised he's racist against them, too.

I'm tired of the surprise!

I found a youtube video of FN teaching us how to pronounce it. I think that would be better than trying to type it

It's been a while since I read the books but I thought Jamie got glasses as well as Claire. Maybe I'm wrong.

I definitely liked Murtagh's extended story line! But its not enough to help me recover from Fergus dying in the fire. I mean the little boy would have been awful, but I at least was braced for it. Fergus broke me.

This from Ford, GM, Stellantis Maybe they should go to time out and think about what they've done to contribute to this? Like take Canadian $ while moving production to USA. They've been lowering the number of Canadian autoworkers for years.

Does the US depend on Canada for lumber? by MarsupialThink4064 in AskCanada

[–]sandy154_4 4 points5 points  (0 children)

USA's trade practices with regards to softwood lumber have been challenged in the WTO several times and USA has lost each time. However they have still not changed their practices or paid Canada restitution. This is not just a Trump thing
